All 4 accounts language-warring to promote the Ho language. My report led to User:Unvwiki being blocked, this led to the creation of User:Arjayfoolman, which is also blocked. The very first edit by User:Dncp here was to report me to WP:AIV - albeit that this report was deleted by an admin 4 minutes later. All subsequent edits by User:Dncp are unsourced additions of Ho language, with occasional deletion of Odia language (a rival language in Jharkhand) as here and here. User:Purty has not been used since 3 December 2016, so may be too stale, but historically has made similar edits. Arjayay (talk) 13:27, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

 * 1) These accounts were all first used between Aug 10 and Aug 27 (Iasbaba's history, Ias Piyush Kamar's history, Ias aspirant05's history) and used to edit the same or similar articles, all relating to/promoting the Ho language and Ho people. The IP first edited on Aug 9 and may or may not be involved.
 * 2) Inserting/changing similar material across the range of articles, even restoring reverted material of the other suspected socks (ex: diff of Ias Piyush Kumar re-adding content first added by 223.176.115.164 in this edit and Iasbaba re-adding it again in this edit at the Mundari language page).
 * 3) Similar names - all start with the letters "Ias". William Thweatt TalkContribs 03:47, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
