 * Regarding the centerpiece diffs: Judging from the formatting of AG's message, it looks like they copy-pasted it from the rendered wikipage (rather than from the wikitext). That reads more like the kind of thing a newer user does when copying someone else's message, rather than the kind of thing someone does when saying the same thing with different sox. I don't know why someone would copy someone else's emssage, but it's a thing that happens, and I also don't know why someone would send identical messages with two sox... but it's also a thing that happens. The two accounts' editing histories are pretty different, other than the shared very broad topic area that is India. Indian business and politics for LT, ancient Indian scholars for AG. Some sockmasters are good at splitting their interests among accounts, but it would be strange to do that and then also post the same message from two accounts., but if CU evidence isn't conclusive, I don't think there's enough to block behaviorally here. --  Tamzin  [ cetacean needed ] (she/they) 07:53, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
