IP and MKS Harsha have used the same wording in these instances, IP's summary and MKS's message. Nangu karna begins with their first edit on a talk page 6 months ago, and later engages in edit-warring as evident from their contributions, so it's likely there are other unidentified accounts too. MKS and Nangu have engaged in close editng, with each sometimes taking over the edit war from the other. Here, the newly created account begins their account by engaging in edit-war, reinstating content previously added by MKS, and immediately afterwards MKS adds a protection template to an unprotected article, something which they have done repeatedly at Arjuna.

Also, another instance of an account with only 18 edits who begins by edit-warring. Both this and Nangu joined Wikipedia 6 months ago and all accounts indulge in Karna-bashing and glorify the character Arjuna. Special:Contributions/2409:4070:2290:1E29:0:0:21A:B8B1 has removed a deletion template from an article (Karna vs Arjuna) created by MKS and called it "superb" and called those involved in nominating the page "rascals". Requesting Checkuser to look out for other similar accounts since Nangu began their account at a talk page discussion hence the likelihood of other accounts existing. 2.51.19.253 (talk) 12:57, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

 * , you've CU blocked the IP initiating the report. Should the case be deleted or assessed behaviorally? TonyBallioni (talk) 01:52, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I didn't review the merits. I suppose I'd evaluate it behaviorally but only if it doesn't entail a large amount of time.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:55, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I'll let you at it then. I was going through some of the easier ones and clearing them, and noticed the IP being blocked here, so thought to ask. TonyBallioni (talk) 01:57, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Heh, not what I meant, although your reading of my comment was understandable. I meant you (not me even though I said I'd) or a clerk. If you don't wish to do it, that's fine, and if no one else does soonish, it should be closed.--Bbb23 (talk) 02:22, 23 July 2018 (UTC)


 * IPs are inactive. Only remaining unblocked account doesn't have great diffs and is inactive. Closing without action. Kevin ( aka L235 ·&#32; t ·&#32; c) 03:24, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

Yet another recreation of Karna vs Arjuna which is exactly same as the previously deleted version, also adding Karna fans who removed the AfD notice. GSS (talk |c|em ) 06:27, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
