Evidence submitted by Angelo De La Paz
AnandVisho is a grand new account created few hours ago today (18:23, 1 April 2010) after Islamuslim has been blocked (09:39, 1 April 2010).


 * First evidence (Claims to be the fastest-growing religion)

AnandVisho restored the same controversial content added by Islamuslim. Islamuslim has been blocked in 2 days for this article's edit war.


 * Second evidence (Major religious groups)

AnandVisho describes him/herself as an Indian Hindu with PhD in Islamic Studies but as we can see from its contributions, it's a pro-Islam and dislike other religions. An example to show it off. Both AnandVisho and Islamuslim removed citation given and claimed Muslim population worldwide up to 2 billion and I reverted it back. See: ,


 * Third evidence (Talk:Islam)

AnandVisho continues Islamuslim's claims in Talk:Islam, against other editors.

 * Concur I have looked through the relevant page histories, and the submitter of this report has a valid point. User, Islamuslim was blocked for 3RR violation on Claims to be the fastest-growing religion in an edit war. 15 hours after Islamuslim was blocked, (09:39, 1 April 2010), the account AnandVisho was created (18:23, 1 April 2010). This account's first edit was to undo a reversion to a pre-edit war version in which Islamuslim had engaged with User:Ari89. A CheeckUser could be relevant, per CheckUser criteria code letter "D", but the behavioral evidence seems quite sufficient. Also, I find AnandVisho's diligence at blanking warnings and notifications from other editors, including a suspected sock-puppet template, rather then responding to the expressed concerns, to be a disturbing trend. --Pstanton (talk) 00:08, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

Seems to be almost certainly another sockpuppet to evade the block that has already been extended for block evasion once. The account has created Islamic International School which was previously created by Islamuslim as a copyright violation, and the new version was also a copyright violation.

 * Also adding Maxatollah as a probable sockpuppet that has started editing since AmazingAthiest was notified of this case, due to the edit to Criticism of the Muslim Population growth and immigration theory which is a virtually orphaned article created by the main account and edited by AmazingAthiest previously.

User:AnandVisho created the attack page Israel and state terrorism, which I had suspected of being a sock of someone else. My fears have been confirmed. Bearian (talk) 16:58, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

I have added Islamindia, and the two IP's, based on recent edits in
 * Article: Bihari Muslims: edit history
 * Article: Chiniotis: edit history

There is more. DVdm (talk) 17:08, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
