"PakePakwan" was created on 29 October 2016. "Watanejan" was created a day later, on 30 October 2016. "Watanejan" started editing (first edit at 22:17) just a few hours after "PakePakwan" was blocked for edit-warring (blocked at 17:17). Same stances, same type of edit summaries, same proficiency in English, same weird POV shown on numerous occassions, and the same type of target articles (e.g. dishes,-), as well as, most importantly, the same "fashion" to delete/change every mention of the word "India",. Lastly, a certain habit to edit-war is visible regarding both the sockmaster as well as the sock, but I believe that was already quite apparant from the diffs alone. - LouisAragon (talk) 22:03, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

The sockmaster + several of his socks were blocked yesterday. This new sock account was created just some hours after that. Immediately started to target the same articles, as well as reinstating virtually the exact same edits.. - LouisAragon (talk) 15:53, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

From my talk page:


 * His response here. His previous sock did this. And WikiPolices is a new user, yet claims to have opened an "investigation" which his current history does not state.
 * His change here. He is very much against calling Mughal Empire - Mughal India. Made this very specific change.

Note the similarity between this and the second diff. Quinton Feldberg (talk) 00:21, 10 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Here's my two cents,


 * The "diffs" don't even correlate. The petitioner didn't put together any solid evidence. All they linked is an edit where I deleted unsourced info on Halwa Poori, which is seriously unsourced. Go check. The petitioner just doesn't like 10 edits that I made, and just trying to assert their POV and get me banned for baseless claims. This is seriously so ridiculous. WikiPolices (talk) 02:28, 10 August 2017 (UTC)


 * They digged up a personal talk I made with an user. This talk made them triggered/mad. I don't know why. The amazing thing is that the person opening this investigation, joined Wikipedia recently JUST to get me banned and revert nothing but my edits. Is that not suspicious?

 * User may be related to this case too. Compare these diffs . Both of them removed referenced information from Monotheism, and check the Editor Interaction Analyser result. Both accounts have a specific interest in South Asian-related articles too. SiddarthWest started his first edit on 8 August and WikiPolices on 9 August. --Wario-Man (talk) 05:41, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Just let me know when the complete justification has been made. I will be glad to help with any Wiki Policing once I have been released. For the time being, I will not indulge in any editing, or editing wars with other Wikipedians.. Please be advised that I am orderly and mature, and I do not want any trouble. Read my quote from last time if you want as well:
 * " The "diffs" don't even correlate. The petitioner didn't put together any solid evidence. All they linked is an edit where I deleted unsourced info on Halwa Poori, which is seriously unsourced.

 * Again this is WikiPolices signing off.

 * Wow, another SPI.. this can't be any more ridiculous.. I'll let the admins take care of it.. it's NOT solid evidence.. now stop accusing me and stop going on useless rants. Thank you!

 * - In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
 * 1) At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
 * 2) At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
 * 3) In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this.  Vanjagenije   (talk)  00:17, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Diffs already provided. Please check the external links in the comment. Quinton Feldberg (talk) 00:18, 10 August 2017 (UTC)

 * There are some distinct similarities, and the allegations clearly have a solid grounding. GABgab 02:47, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
 * - Pleae, compare WikiPolices to previous socks of this master .  Vanjagenije  (talk)  09:24, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
 * ✅ =  = . The accounts in the archive are, so they can't be compared against. - Mailer Diablo 15:31, 10 August 2017 (UTC)


 * Blocking with dual tags and closing.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  17:26, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
