Master was banned for disruption on NDTV after their final warning. Sock was created after their ability to edit their talk page was revoked, and went on with the same pattern of editing on NDTV. Also compare the idiosyncrasies between the two accounts on User talk:JoJo Rabbit11 and Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. Looks pretty ducky to me.

 * Comment Another IP user User:45.124.142.19 was blocked recently, showing a reluctance in account creation. If not same user, definitely off-wiki coordinated activity, targeting one single page.ChunnuBhai (talk) 10:24, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
 * and confirm that the IP is JoJo Rabbit1 ChunnuBhai (talk) 13:16, 22 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Comment SagittariusAstarJ claims to be "new to wikipedia with no previous experience of editing" But his/her first 11 edits were done in 29 minutes to 6 different articles adding correct Wikilinks, citation needed templates, and correcting spelling errors. 7 of the first 11 edits were marked as "minor edits", in all cases correctly. Except for the correcting spelling errors, this is not the behaviour of a new user. It is the behaviour of a sockpuppet trying to get their account autoconfirmed.


 * Out of the remaining 10 edits, 8 were on the subject of NDTV, one on another Indian media company, and one was denying previous editing experience. Again, the minor edits checkbox was always used correctly (new users find it confusing).  After an initial post on Talk:NDTV by SagittariusAstarJ, there were a series of posts by 45.124.142.19 that were written as though by a different editor who was in agreement with SagittariusAstarJ.  "45.124.142.19 is obviously an indeffed user evading their block. Blocked as such by RegentsPark."


 * 45.124.142.19's 1st block started at 14:29, 20 December 2020 (UTC), and the SagittariusAstarJ came back into use at 07:03, 21 December 2020 (UTC). Since the IP editor and the SagittariusAstarJ account seem to work hand in glove, and the IP editor is a block-evading sock, it seems likely that they are the same person. The report at WP:ANI repeats statements made by the IP editor at Talk:NDTV. -- Toddy1 (talk) 17:23, 22 December 2020 (UTC)


 * *Comment I am a new user with fever edits to this date, and a vast prior study and research to establish the knowledge of how to edit wikipeida. I can see and suspect the comments above seems to be off-wiki coordinated activity to link my account to an unrelated person whom i probably not related.

 * this again indicates that you are same as JoJoRabbit. a simple look at the NDTV talk page shows how insistent JoJo was adding "false news reporting" somehow to NDTV page.
 * JoJo Rabbit used to pick up phrases and ideas from what others used to write. Here you have picked up the phrase "off-wiki coordinated activity" from my post, I have used it atleast twice in threads involving JoJo.
 * I am convinced you are JoJo Rabbit1

Any doubt that SagittariusAstarJ is JoJoRabbit has been removed by this edit by SagittariusAstarJ pushing JoJoRabbit's NDTV does false news agenda. -- Toddy1 (talk) 12:47, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

 * I blocked the user based on the behavioral evidence, clearly either a sock- or a meatpuppet.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:56, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

JoJo Rabbit11 had a thing about attacking NDTV alleging that it published "fake, misleading and false news" - see Talk:NDTV/Archive 1. But JoJo Rabbit11 also attacked The Wire (India) which he/she claimed was left-wing and published fake news. and used talk pages to justify his/her edits

New editor YoYoRockNRoll is doing the same thing with edits to Talk:The Wire (India). The article on The Wire (India) is semi-protected until 23 February 2021, so only autoconfirmed users can edit it - which is why YoYoRockNRoll is not editing the article directly.

The similarity between JoJo and YoYo in the user names is also indicative. -- Toddy1 (talk) 19:20, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

 * . They are geographically close to each other, but I would say this is a different person who happens to be advocating for the same view. There are some stylistic differences in the way they write that "feels" like a different person—specifically, JoJo Rabbit11 demonstrates more familiarity with Wikipedia's syntax than YoyoRockNRoll does: compare . For these reasons, I'm closing this case without action at this time. Mz7 (talk) 07:04, 25 January 2021 (UTC)
