Request to restore Draft:Purushottam Subedi which was originally created by one of Nepali's socks. I know this farm is super stale, so I don't expect to get a match to Nepali, but perhaps the farm is starting up again or their tasks were handed off to a new farm, in which case there may be other socks and meats this can be a match to.

Adding new account, which has just recreated salted Swoopna Suman at Swoopna Suman (singer), along with some edit overlap with master. 2A00:23EE:2610:548B:A030:E2FF:FE8E:A243 (talk) 15:11, 23 June 2023 (UTC)

 * All three are to each other.  Given that the last reported sock in this case was 4 years ago, I think it unlikely they're the same person as NepaliHelper. RoySmith (talk) 12:13, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Tagged with RAJAKC as master. Suggest moving to an SPI for RAJAKC. - UtherSRG (talk) 15:55, 9 July 2023 (UTC)

The last sock, Manalbare was blocked on 9 July, and the account KTMCITY was created on 17 July, which is exactly eight days after the block of Manalbare. KTMCITY appears to share the same editing interests and patterns as Manalbare, particularly their keen interest in Nepal-related articles. KTMCITY has significantly edited 19 pages that Manalbare had previously worked on and even recreated the Sushant KC page using the exact same edit summary as Manalbare.

 * - KTMCITY sign up is even closer to ICantAct's block. There's extensive overlap, similar edit summaries, similar user name. Also note this typo in an edit summary, which maybe was repeated several times because of browser autocompletion . Please, block the account. Thank you. MarioGom (talk) 11:55, 10 September 2023 (UTC)

BTMCITY1 was created on 21 September, just 11 days after the previous sock KTMCITY was blocked on 10 September. Both usernames are very similar. BTMCITY1 recreated Sushant KC, which was previously created by User:KTMCITY and other socks. Both users share similar interests and edited similar pages related to Nepalese singers. – DreamRimmer (talk) 10:12, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

 * CU data is consistent with what I see in the logs from this case, which strengthens the suspicions raised by the editing. Blocked, tagging as suspected. Girth Summit  (blether)  15:13, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
