This seems rather obvious to me. Both usernames include "Nilabh". Nilabh12 gave Nilabh_Shivam_333 two barnstars, visible [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Nilabh_Shivam_333&oldid=956593498#A_barnstar_for_you! here], despite no obvious history of interaction, and no other direct engagement with any other user. Outside of userspace, Nilabh12 has only edited two pages, one of which is Guwahati; this is a city Nilabh_Shivam_333 also has demonstrated an interest in;,. Finally, Nilabh12 acknowledges an interest in Covid19 on their userpage, which is an interest the other user shares (ctrl-F "covid"). I could ask them about this connection, but they've been quite unresponsive to all previous messages. Vanamonde (Talk) 03:07, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Technically bordering on . They're both on the same ISP and user-agent, geolocating to the same place (in a country where geolocation is quite bad, though). Kevin ( aka L235 · t · c) 16:04, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
 * This one's pretty obvious. On top of the other stuff described above, Nilabh12's second edit was to create a user page full of userboxes (including one that claims extended confirmed).  Indef and tag?  -- RoySmith (talk) 18:57, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
 * This is weird. While investigating WP:Sockpuppet investigations/2A01:4C8:62:2038:9C2C:182E:921B:5F57, I noticed that the user who opened that case, Princepratap1234, had a user page with a familiar collection of userboxes.  Looking closer, I noticed that Princepratap1234 and Nilabh12 were two of only 12 users that transclude User:AkshayAnand/India.  Unclear what's going on there, but that's an odd coincidence.  Maybe another CU run with that in mind?  -- RoySmith (talk) 22:13, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
 * , I don't think the userboxes by themselves are enough evidence to justify a check. I'd just go ahead with dealing with Nilabh12. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 07:59, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

Same name, interest in the same page, adding the same copyrighted material the master was blocked for. Were I uninvolved, I would block this without a second thought. Requesting a CU to check for sleepers, as the first CU obviously did not catch this one. Vanamonde (Talk) 04:56, 29 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Add, but there is a reason you won't regularly find sleepers here unless they are obvious. -- Amanda  (aka DQ) 11:46, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
