Minhascaa has been around for many years and has repeatedly inserted poor content at Jadoon.

Alikhancaa is relatively new but has also inserted poor content, much of which aligns with the statements that Minhascaa has been making.

Today, the latter did this, was rollbacked by me (see their talk page for warnings/lack of discussion on their part) and then the alleged master did this.

Both accounts have also been editing Dhamtour and there is, of course, a similarity in naming style.

Mulberry sky is less certainly a sock but their edits to Jadoon are similarly poor and have sometimes coincided with the other two. It wouldn't surprise me if there are other socks in the drawer but they are likely stale. Sitush (talk) 13:12, 17 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Using the interaction tool, I have just noticed what is perhaps a significant variation in style re: edit summaries. Mulberry sky sometimes uses them. This may well be less a case of socking and more one of meating or even opportunism. - Sitush (talk) 08:38, 18 August 2014 (UTC)

 * I've blocked Minhascaa indefinitely for disruption at a caste article and blatant socking, and Alikhancaa per WP:DUCK. But I'd like a CU to look at Mulberry sky. Bishonen &#124; talk 21:08, 17 August 2014 (UTC).

A new account that has made almost exactly the same edit as the recently-blocked master and their earlier sock. This might be meatpuppetry involving a caste association co-ordinating off-wiki but I doubt it.

Although they're not a sock per the last report here, could any patrolling admin please also look at the contribution history of - they've had a sanctions warning and are becoming disruptive on the same article. Sitush (talk) 09:21, 24 August 2014 (UTC)

 * ✅ Flight114 to the master. As for Mulberry sky, that needs to be taken up at the appropriate noticeboard like ANI. -- DQ   (ʞlɐʇ)  03:04, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
