This account (the junior of the two accounts) created Draft:Raween Kanishka. The senior of the two accounts, reported as the master, then made an exact copy of that draft in User:Lakshani85/sandbox. Either they are the same person, which is sockpuppetry, or this is plagiarism. There is likely to be undisclosed paid editing involved. Request CheckUser both to verify sockpuppetry and to look for sleepers (although I know the limitations of pixie dust). Robert McClenon (talk) 17:16, 3 March 2018 (UTC)

 * To note. The master was only blocked for a week. There is another account too. Dreamy Jazz talk to me &#124; my contributions 15:39, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm blocking the lot indef. To me Draft:Raween Kanishka seems like a possible COI/UPE creation. These accounts are SPA for this person. Although this could be the case of forgetting passwords, the link between the accounts should have been there and due to their previous sockpuppetry block they should have been told about the sockpuppetry policy. Furthermore, switching accounts in a way which looks to avoid scrutiny is a violation of the sockpuppetry policy. In this case they switched accounts without linking them, but continued to be SPA over the draft. Dreamy Jazz talk to me &#124; my contributions 16:04, 27 October 2020 (UTC) (reworded)
