 * This lot are ❌ technically, but I didn't really expect anything different. This looks very much like meatpuppetry to me, which can of course be treated as sockpuppetry in most cases. . firefly  ( t · c ) 16:46, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Forgot to mention - "Prabhakargoud.indicwiki" is the oldest account, but I'm not sure it really matters much here. firefly  ( t · c ) 16:52, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
 * I find the behavioral evidence unconvincing; the overlap is not unreasonable given the interests/backgrounds described on their userpages. It's not unlikely that there's some canvassing going on, and I will follow up with Induvadhone about what appears to be a conflict of interest, but I see no grounds for sanctions. Suggest closing.

 * It looks like canvassing, but I don't think it's clear enough to handle it at SPI. You might want to warn the users. Closing. MarioGom (talk) 18:49, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
