Dipto229 was created shortly after Niloy229 was blocked and began editing the same articles.

Following creation Don02 went straight to making edits to the same page the other account and the IP edited. The [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Khoka_420_(2013_film)&diff=prev&oldid=566101887 first edit] alone shows that they have a pretty good knowledge of how Wikipedia works.

Khoka 420 (2013 film)'s [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Khoka_420_(2013_film)&action=history page history] shows a pretty good link between User:Don02 & User:Dipto229. After Dipto229 created the page, it was redirected by an uninvolved editor, Don02 then reverted this redirect in what I believe was an attempt to avoid scrutiny.

Mafia (2013 film)'s [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mafia_(2013_film)&action=history page history] shows a link between 180.149.3.248, 180.149.3.249, Don02 and Dipto229 as well as an establishing link with Niloy229.

Khoka 420's [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Khoka_420&action=history page history] shows a link between Niloy229, Dipto229 and Don02, plus a possible link to Karib143.

All of the accounts use a similar naming convention and have all edited in the same areas, and I would have said that those areas are a little obscure for an influx of similarly named accounts making similar edits.

I've requested CheckUser to check for sleepers given the number of possibles, plus it is a little messy with a number possible puppets which haven't made a number of edits so behavior on it's own might not be conclusive. I've also requested it because there have been accounts created through the request an account process. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 05:09, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Dipto229 = Don02 = Niloy229. Other than that, none showed on the range check, but I didn't check them directly due to lack of *presented* evidence. -- DQ   (ʞlɐʇ)  02:39, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Already blocked. Tagging and closing.

Editing similar pages, same "229" suffix on name, seems ducky to me. Frood 17:27, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Actually, hold off on this for a sec... These should all be merged into Sockpuppet investigations/Niloy229. I found a couple more, and I'm not really sure where to put them. Frood 17:41, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
