 * - Please, compare those four alleged socks. The alleged master is stale and is probably not connected. Their article is about different Karan Chanana.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  18:22, 26 May 2017 (UTC)


 * I agree with Vanjagenije that Karan chanana does not seem to be related to the other accounts. However, it is clear that the other accounts are a group of accounts acting together for promotional purposes, whether run by one person or by several people. As such, they are effectively being used to evade the block on Chanana A. Karan. I would have blocked as sock/meat puppets for that reason, but since a CheckUser is in progress I will wait for the outcome.

 * Group 1 – the following accounts are ✅ to each other:
 * Group 2 – the accounts below are ✅ and behaviorally related to each other for two reasons: (1) the most obvious is when one or more of the accounts collaborate to create an article and (2) apparent paid editing. They are technically to the Group 1 accounts.
 * The following accounts are ❌ to each other and to Groups 1 and 2:
 * I've blocked the accounts in Groups 1 and 2 without tags.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:56, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I moved the case to the oldest account, tagged and closed.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  20:36, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
