Recreated Draft:Souvik Nath with the same content. I blocked the suspected sock per but I think the master should be blocked indef as well now. Pinging who blocked the master for one week. Regards SoWhy 09:07, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

I mistakenly filed this one under another SPI however behavioral evidence all points to this master or at the very least, the most recent sock and  based on their overlapping interest in Family Time With Kapil Sharma as well as this edit re: Souvik Nath, this request for "fully protection and also seemingly targeting 's tp with nonsense. There's also all of the "awards" they're giving out, etc...  CHRISSY MAD  ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  18:41, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

Now there's more crossover with MJ66 but following blocks yesterday, this morning and this afternoon, yet another user with the same nonsense deletion rationales as and  has popped up and started nominating obviously encyclopedic articles for deletion rapidly.

Username similarity, and similar edits including barnstars as initial edits ( compared to ), and generally bizarre editing (i.e. creating Template:Admin Help). power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 05:11, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
 * You may wanna request CU for sleepers, I am almost positive is them based on this. Also overlaps with the two socks I pointed out last round.  CHRISSY MAD  ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  15:11, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
 * And another identical edit like the last batch. CHRISSY MAD  ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  15:17, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Blocked via edit filter report to AIV, still cleaning up. Suspect there is more, would like a checkuser sweep if possible. One possible hit is SankeySara, which edited similar articles and shares behavior of adding Good Article tags inappropriately, barnstars, and creating user pages rather than user talks. Cross editing between the two. -- ferret (talk) 14:56, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Based on Chrissymad's additional checking on behavior (plus this), SankeySara DUCK blocked. -- ferret (talk) 15:22, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

Quack. Can we cross check this user with another SPI as they share some strangely similar characteristics (namely the abuse of the help template and bragging about socking) see etc.  CHRISSY MAD  ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  15:11, 26 February 2018 (UTC)

Same incompetent nonsense, mass welcoming no-edit, or vandal users, likely in an attempt to get perms, submitting random stuff in mainspace that is actively being worked by unaffiliated editors, and of course, the the piece de resistance, request perms within days of registering.
