Similar editing style (ungrammatical English, inserting only Chinese sources) and topic (Chinese companies). (For example, check out Wotech Solar and Terabyte (brand), are they really written by different people?). Both users edited the pages Tiger pan and Juanpi (disambiguation). Renyuren participated in the AFDs of Articles for deletion/Jiang Yibing (performer) and Articles for deletion/Juanpi (company), both created by Likelovewiki. Considering these topics are unrelated, this cannot be simple coincidence. Both users uploaded a bunch of company logos as "own work" on commons.wikimedia.org, using exactly the same template, e.g. vs. Even their one-liners in their user pages are so similar.

Liangshansan and the ip are definitely the same person. Their editing style also reminds me of Mokezhilao, so I did a Geolocation check, and this Ip is located in the same Chinese province (Henan) as Mokezhilao and his countless accounts. Timmyshin (talk) 20:07, 16 March 2017 (UTC)

So who is this xxx Mokezhilao Person? You can not just randomly pick or grab people to your page and suspect they are some kind of so callled "sockpuppets" of someone. And especially towards the Chinese language native speakers. What do you mean by Chinglish? This is definitely insulting and racism. I demand administrator attention.

Dilidilidi's wrote JikeJunyi (promotional biography of a Chinese person), and the writing style is very similar to Mokezhilao (numbered list etc.). 端木卫龙 created/recreated Jike Junyi (same person) many times in the past 2 weeks.

 * Looking at the deleted history for Oppo Mobile, I see that created it and the IP made the very next edit to it only two minutes later. Do I think that block evasion is probable? Sure - it definitely seems suspicious. But... do I feel like there's enough to assert that the IP and the account are being used by the same person? I believe the answer is no. All I have is the fact that this IP made an edit to the article after the account did - there isn't anything else to go on other than this fact alone. Unless more edits come to light by the IP, I don't feel that there's enough evidence to block the IP at this time.  ~Oshwah~  (talk)  (contribs)   12:52, 18 June 2017 (UTC)

 * That is rather surprising. On Chinese Wikipedia I confirmed Yiziyihan to be a puppet of Wj887/Mokezhilao on zh. Should we move this report to the SPI page for Raju Adhikari? -Mys_721tx (talk) 02:53, 4 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Not necessarily. to help sort out who is who. Because there is undisclosed paid editing involved, it is possible that there may be some crossover. Having the evidence that some of the socks have been confirmed on zh.wiki certainly does help bolster the case. With a confirmation of the cu status, the responding checkuser may also want to compare notes with Mys 721tx privately.

 * apologies for the many pings, I would like to close this somewhat quickly. From my own work, I see it obvious that =  (see Draft:Amjad Alsaboory) = Raju Adhikari, and I'm going ahead with tagging. It's not apparent to me that any of the others are related to any of the other active cases and are probably just a separate issue, but they're blocked anyway and we can probably either leave them without tags or create a new case under Chulumulu.
