Suspected sockpuppets
The Persian Language Wikipedia has ✅ these accounts to one another. All three socks have participated in Articles for deletion/Mahsa Amini, so this appears to be abuse of multiple accounts if the faWiki CUs are correct in confirming the connection between the accounts. I am requesting CheckUser to verify the findings of the faWiki CUs. I will note that I was alerted to this by a post on WP:ANI, but it does not appear to be the case that this has yet been reported to WP:SPI in order to request CheckUser on EnWiki. —  Red-tailed hawk (nest) 02:44, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

 * Gosh. That's a lot of socks. The following are ✅ to one another, and to which is already blocked as a proven sock of the proposed master.
 * It's possible that there are some I've missed - come back if the disruption persists. I'm going to request locks as they are obviously disrupting multiple projects. Girth Summit  (blether)  13:35, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

 * a check on a MahanNoori and Agrinnn based on the presented evidence and edit summaries. I have not seen enough evidence for a check on Mahanikat so far. MarioGom (talk) 22:52, 27 November 2023 (UTC)
 * The case is stale but MahanNoori and Agrinnn are ✅ to each other. I'm blocking them but will leave tagging to the clerks. I agree that there is not enough evidence to check Mahanikat and did not, but they did not appear in the checks I did run. There are also some other accounts on the IP they're using which I'm going to ask checkusers on some other wikis to look at, so please don't close this yet. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 18:08, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't see enough evidence from the cross-checks to support action against the other accounts I saw, so I'm closing. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 18:58, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
 * You said you are blocking them, but they are not blocked. Is that a mistake?  Vanjagenije  (talk)  23:41, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Whoops! Yes, I meant to block them, fixed now. Thanks to you both for checking! Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 23:44, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
