Suspected sockpuppets
This fellow adds a bogus Mahasiddha named "Lokesh" to the list of Mahasiddhas on the page Mahasiddhas]. Siddhalokesh7 has been permabanned, and has done the same thing. I don't know why the latter was banned; but I do believe that the same edit has been done more than twice, so I suspect there are other socks owned by the same editor.

This guy is being reverted regularly and systematically, but he continues to edit the page. This is a pain in the neck for the regular editors who are trying to keep the page straight and square. It creates work that has to be done by volunteers.
