Contrast Forest Trail, as created by Rūta Rulle with Draft:Baltic Forest Hiking Trail as created by Anna-Sara Reinisch.

The suspected master was reported to ANI (Likely UPE on Forest Trail) and the article redirected so switching accounts is evading scrutiny here.

CU to confirm and see if other UPEs lurk on these addresses.  Eostrix  (&#x1F989; hoot hoot&#x1F989;) 08:32, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
 * From off-wiki snooping, IF we are to believe the account names, this may be meat puppetry. However the re-creation of a similar draft within days is not likely to be coincidental.-- Eostrix  (&#x1F989; hoot hoot&#x1F989;) 08:46, 28 June 2021 (UTC)

I will copy here my answer from the other page ("Likely an UPE on Forest Trail") to explain more about our situation. I hope it is ok.
 * "Hello! I'm new to Wikipedia so I noticed the whole discussion only yesterday and now I have time to answer (we had a long national holiday last week, if that changes anything). So yes, we wanted to create a whole new page about E11 in the Baltic states (Baltic Forest Hiking Route). The name "Forest Trail" is how we call the route in the Baltic states, so we used it at the beginning. However, I agree that it could be misleading, the name "Baltic Forest Hiking Route" would be better.
 * And yes, I work for an associated organization which is involved in several projects creating the long distance hiking routes in the Baltic states. That's why I tried to create this article. However, we didn't think about it as promoting the hiking trail, it was only meant for informational purposes for other hikers. Also, we are not the only organization involved in these projects, as you can see here: https://baltictrails.eu/en/forest/aboutus. But, of course, I understand that there are certain rules about what can and cannot be published, so if you think think this article is inappropriate and against the rules, we will not try to create it.
 * Regarding the account of Anna-Sara Reinisch - she is an intern from Sweden in our organization. She is currently working with different apps and portals where to put the information about the Baltic Forest Hiking Route. Yesterday she saw that there is a conflict of interests here on Wiki, that's why she created an account for herself - we thought that from another account we could create it. As I mentioned before, if the whole idea about this article is against the rules, we will stop with trying to do that."

They say "learning by doing", right? If we did something wrong, we are sorry and we would like to know more what to do in this situation. Sincerely, Rūta Rulle (talk) 15:48, 29 June 2021 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 * I think the explanation given above is perfectly reasonable for why these two accounts are editing these subjects, and no checkuser is necessary. I've left a COI warning for Anna-Sara Reinisch, and the articles can be dealt with in the usual fashion. – bradv 🍁  02:07, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
