Hind ji and Naseeb2468 were blocked last month by SpacemanSpiff per WP:NOTHERE. The following week a soft block was placed on 2402:8100:2100::/40 due to wide ranging and persistent addition of unsourced/poorly sourced content. A third account, RJ2468, was blocked today, originally due to persistent copyright violations. While reviewing for additional copyright issues, it became clear that all of these accounts are connected and have been used for block evasion. In addition to the unsourced/poorly sourced content adds and copyright violations, the RJ2468 account was also observed re-posting articles which were deleted through the WP:AFD process.

Note: There is a fourth account, RS6784, which may or may not be directly involved with the others, although that account is on its own path due to disruptive editing as well.

All of the accounts listed, with exception to RS6784, have been blocked. Due to ongoing block evasion, I respectfully request a check for additional sleepers.

Thank you for your time and please don't hesitate to contact me if there are any additional questions or concerns. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 19:01, 14 September 2021 (UTC)

Too much similarity with previous sock User:Hind ji to be a coincidence. Despite Aj indiana only starting editing on 1 October and having less than 200 edits, they not only have both edited Anjana Chaudhari, Sandhawalia, Khatri, Matharu, Ranjit Singh, Khalsa, Brar, Anangpal Tomar, Puran Mal (created by Hind ji, and Aj indiana restored the edit by a blocked IP), Samma tribe (with the typical attempts to make everything a jat or jatt), Sial tribethis vs. this, Jat Sikh (compare the removal by Hind ji and the one by Aj indiana, ... but both also created the redirect Punjabi Jatt.

This user created a new account impersonating me and redirected his page to my account in trying to jeopardize my account and using it to vandalize various pages. Aj indiana was blocked on November 5, 2021 as he was reported by me for edit warring.

 * It seems highly likely that Ghirth Jat is a sock of Himachali chaudhary. The date of creation suggests it, as does the promotion of the same caste, the similarly limited competence in English, and certain other habits as well.

The new account Wikidellhi consistently trying to push "Jat" on Khokhar diff here :[], Sial tribe diff here [], Anjana Chaudhari here [] , very similar to banned sock master Naseeb2468 behaviour through his earlier banned account sock who was also interested in these pages with same action of adding "jat" on the respective article and even the content, diff for banned account here on Khokhar [] : , Sial tribe diff=[], Anjana Chaudhari diff here: []. The particular banned account was also active on these pages with same content as well as editing pattern. Aj indiana was declared sock of Naseeb2468. The new account looks related to the banned account Aj indiana sock of Naseeb2468. RS6784 (talk) 11:51, 10 May 2022 (UTC)

I don't know if these two are socks or not, but it looks to me as if User:Historyindia1 is a probable sock of Naseeb2468. They share an interest in multiple pages, plus the new article Battle of Ghasera which was previously created by Naseeb but deleted recently after Articles for deletion/Battle of Ghasera. They also both created a now deleted version of Sinsinwar clan. Fram (talk) 13:56, 10 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Historyindia1 and Wikidellhi are both based on CU data.  However, the IP ranges are wide and the device types are not uncommon for this region of the world, so I'm hesitant to put too much faith in CU, i.e. .  Also, south-asian social groups are a popular topic, often with highly polarized points of view, so I'm going to leave this to somebody who is more attune to the nuances of those areas. -- RoySmith (talk) 13:29, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

 * Actually, they're blocked (not banned) for being WP:NOTHERE and they are tagged as suspected of being a sock of Naseeb2468.  What I meant by I still don't have anything that definitively ties this group back to Naseeb2468 is there's nothing in the CU data that confirms the connection. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:59, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Dear Admin, thanks for explaining it. I do get your point now but I have one query here. Your data suggests that Wikidellhi is related to Smith Jats. Wikidellhi is already blocked for other reason. So, isn't it a case of block evasion by this account Smith Jats irrespective of whether they are connected to Naseeb2468 or not? I think I should have added another blocked account Aj Indiana which was declared as sock. These accounts definitely have some overlap with that account more compared to Naseeb2468.

Tushir0001 freely admits to sockpuppetry with and others at their talk page, "because you guys keep blocking me", particularly in this edit.

The edit history is similar: focusing on Indian history (particularly Jat history), cavalier pastes of copyright, etc.

Same exact editing patterns of adding statements about the Jat caste to biographical articles (especially their short description) and posting standalone images in the intro lede of articles (compare this edit by confirmed sock to this  one and this  one by suspected sock]). Here is an example of adding "Jat" to article short descriptons: here by confirmed sock and here by suspected sock. Account seems to have started its activity after the confirmed sock account Tushir Aryan was banned.
