SPA that was created apparently for the sole purpose of vote stacking in Articles for deletion/Teja Tanikella. It's possible that this is meatpuppetry, however, if it is a sock, then it's complete abuse of a 2nd account. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 18:25, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets
User:MrTeja was created on 2009. On 17 February 2023‎, a deletion discussion started about Janaa padaalu. On 12:25 PM, 18 February 2023‎ (Indian Time), User:MrTeja commented "Keep" and on 12:53 PM, 18 February 2023‎, a very new user User:Tanikellad commented "Keep". I think that this two users are sockpuppet because the signature of User:MrTeja was 'TejaTanikella' on 18:51, 17 February 2023 (UTC) (For reference, you can see this.) and please see the signature of MrTeja, 'TejaTanikella' and name of that new user 'User:Tanikellad'. I think that "Tanikellad" is the sock's surname and this surname is in this two account's username and signature.​​​​​​​𝐋𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐕𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐭𝟕𝟐𝟖🧙‍♂️Let's Talk ! 06:39, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I've been on Wikipedia for about 13 years now and I don't understand why would I use a Sock puppet to edit anything? I do all my edits by myself, and I don't agree with this accusation. Also, why would anyone use their same surname in multiple accounts? MrTeja (talk) 08:41, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

Hi, this is DjaY and i’m very new to wikipedia editing. I really like to contribute in correcting and rectifying any mistakes i come across. I’m neither impersonating nor acting as a sock puppet. This whole process is new to me and this accusation makes me feel bad. I don’t agree with it and i’m true to myself. Tanikellad (talk) 14:09, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

 * . I can see how this can be a joe job. So if there's not a strong match on technical data, I'll recommend a block for Tanikellad but not MrTeja. MarioGom (talk) 12:07, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Quick note: After examining this more closely, I don't think this is a joe job. MarioGom (talk) 18:59, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
