He has at least edited the articles Quranism and List of Quranists, in essence reverting them to the previously undesired versions by Rahibsaleem: see the much less different comparison with Rahibsaleem's version of Quranism and the Quranist list history. Rahibsaleem got banned indefinitely for edit warring over these edits. Additional evidence may be seen on the user pages of Williammacewen and Rahibsaleem, which start out almost identically.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I just received a message on my talk page that User:HyperGaruda posted saying that I am a sock puppet. This is my only account on Wikipedia. I believe this a clear slander and bad faith attack. I was accused of being a sock puppet of User:Rahibsaleem. I checked his page and he had Hindi on it. I dont know Hindi and am not from India. I dont know who rahib salem is. I want to tell User:HyperGaruda to not make bad faith accusations. Thank you. Further information: WP:NPA and WP:BADFAITH.) williammacewen  talk 15:26, 10 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi there, Williammacewen! Care to explain why you have exactly the same quotations in the same make-up ("Being crafty, I caught you with guile...for if the truth of God hath more abounded through my LIE unto his glory; why yet am I also adjudged a sinner?" — St Paul; "What profit has not that fable of Jesus brought us!" — Pope Leo X; the first Quran quotation 27:88) on your user page as on Rahibsaleem's? - HyperGaruda (talk) 15:40, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

Both restored the article Quranism to versions which were very unreliably sourced, POV and OR: William2, IP a, IP b and one of Rahibsaleem's "parent" diffs. Also, the sock is obviously the same as the other blocked sock User:Williammacewen. Should these revisions maybe be rev-deleted? HyperGaruda (talk) 23:48, 17 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see that Williammacewen2 has been blocked while I was filing the report. - HyperGaruda (talk) 23:54, 17 December 2015 (UTC)

This IP reverted the article Quranism to a very unreliably sourced, POV and OR revision. Compare two similar "bad" revisions versus the completely different current revision after the September 2015 cleanup. I've only added the IP for documenting purposes. I don't suspect the IP will continue editing any time soon, regarding IP/account hopping and the ~monthly pattern of WP:OR revision restoration at Quranism (12 Aug 2015, 28 Aug, 4 Sep, 31 Oct, 17 Dec 2015, 1 Jan 2016). - HyperGaruda (talk) 11:09, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

Each of these IPs have been bothering the Quranism page with reinstating a very unreliably sourced, POV, and OR revision, that was cleaned up and rewritten significantly ever since. Sock master's final revision: Special:Permalink/672973075. Diffs of IPs: IP 1, IP 2, IP 3, IP 4, IP 5]. Considering the increased frequency of disruptive editing (all edits were made this month), I recommend either a range block or semi-protecting Quranism (3 to 6 months?).
