Username quack. User:Md Hashim azmi shaikh also lists "Mdhashim24" as his Facebook link on his user page. (Update: User:14.139.62.117 changed the Facebook link the day after this SPI was raised.)

Beyond that, sockmaster Mdhashim24 made a mangled UTRS request last December which included File:Md hashim azmi at college.jpg (which was as the selfie of a blocked Wikipedia self-promoter). User:Md Hashim azmi shaikh currently has File:Md Hashim Azmi at College Ground.jpg on his profile page.

User:Md Hashim azmi shaikh also has a lot of article overlap with User:Rahusk: Rahusk created a sandbox article about "Mattew S" on at 11:01 on 1 April; Hashim created a mainspace article "Mattew S" with the same text four minutes later; an hour later Rahusk then worked on that article, including moving it to the correct spelling "Matthew S". There's similar overlap on Hyphy Da Spider (Hashim creates it, Rahusk starts editing it within half an hour) and they've both worked on other articles together. Both users have also made incoherent speedy deletion requests (Rahusk flagging a Swedish bicycle manufacturer as a non-notable musical recording, Hashim flagging a one-sentence mountain as obvious vandalism and advertising). McGeddon (talk) 11:31, 15 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Also adding User:GainRuz, who has edited the same Matthew S article, created Indian Students Organisation & Media (a student group "luched by Hashim Azmi") and has been making spurious speedy deletion requests.
 * And User:Ziyan Khan - editing Indian Students Organisation & Media two minutes after GainRuz, Md Hashim azmi shaikh's Sunny Bawra article two hours after Md Hashim, editing Yeola minutes after Rahusk to help out with promoting Hashim's blog. Ziyan's other edits are mostly flagging speedy deletions. --McGeddon (talk) 12:18, 15 April 2016 (UTC)

Same slapdash speedy deletion as previous socks (eg. flagging a duplicate article about Tennessee as "db-vandalism"), username is almost identical to blocked sock User:Ziyan Khan. McGeddon (talk) 11:26, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

User:Hashim331 is another sock who's recreated a past socks's old user page on their own user page, and made no other edits. --McGeddon (talk) 11:40, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Total ducks, with plenty more evidence, as well as that given by McGeddon. Both blocked. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 12:29, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

User:Ybhasan is an SPA who created an article about Indian student journalist Hashim Azmi, per previous socks. User:HAzmi marked the article as reviewed, has the name "H Azmi", and has been adding the same inappropriate CSD templates to other articles as previous Mdhashim24 socks.

User:HarshaMR has submitted a draft about Mr. Hashim Azmi twice. User:Mdhashim has 'Hashim' in common. In the SPI page, multiple previous socks are named like Hashim, Md, Azmi etc.  sami  talk 18:50, 25 November 2016 (UTC)

Nitesh143143 is another SPA account creating a biography of Hashim Azmi - this time in mainspace, but with the same content as User:HarshaMR's draft above. McGeddon (talk) 10:29, 26 November 2016 (UTC)
 * A week later, User:Subhname added a section about Hashim Azmi and his website to another article, as their first and only edit. --McGeddon (talk) 10:08, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
