Malaysia based IPs and editors who are active serially, and (in recent months) edit content related to history of the Indian subcontinent especially as it relates to cultural contributions (architecture, coins, art, clothes, food etc). Often rail against Eurocentrism and emphasize indigenous origins of cultural and scientific advancements. See this ANI report and this discussion for more background, timeline and details. , and  have been made aware of some other telltale signs not listed here. Abecedare (talk) 16:20, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

The user is disruptively editing on Architecture of India, trying to defend a series of edits by IPs in late June to early July. They have claimed that they are the IP. I am also convinced it is the original sockpuppet due to evidence on Commons where I tried to delete a copyrighted file by Rameezraja001 and my tag was removed multiple times by the sock (see Commons report here ). There seems to be some historical data here which might be of help and. DreamLinker (talk) 10:34, 15 September 2019 (UTC)

User making accusations for socket puppetry has been engaged in a major edit warring and has made multiple reverts and vandalism in the Architecture of India article and has backed another user without consensus, the material from the article which is 2 years old from year 2017 has been removed without any agreement. Both of these users are new to editing the said article and have already done major changes without engaging any previous editor from the article. Another article created to move the subtracted material from the aforementioned article into History of pre Islamic architecture of Indian Subcontinent was removed without consensus as well. All these info can be accessed form the user's contribution history. Zombie gunner (talk) 11:04, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment by Fowler&fowler: I am wondering if behaviorally invites comparison with banned .  Their broad editing histories, respectively, on Architecture of India and History of domes in South Asia—creating content forks, changing halfway through the dispute from an IP to a user name, editing (as IPs or with current user name) pages earlier edited by, now topic banned from India-related pages—seem similar.  Their long edits as IPs seem to have been made from the same location in Malaysia: Zombie (location) in these edits and Hammy0007 (location in IP incarnation) in these edits  Fowler&amp;fowler  «Talk»  16:40, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment by पाटलिपुत्र: I requested article protection a few days ago to try to deal with this jumping IP now called Zombie gunner . In his recent edits, which he acknowledged, Zombie gunner actually appears to be editing from Pakistan . However his writing style (my god, can it be any rougher!!) and his bias are clearly identical with those of the Malaysian IP and  (and , of course). I have seen this pattern of alternating location for about 2 years now. He looks like someone with a very strong bias (as Rameezraja001 he was blocked for xenophobic insults) and total disregard for copyrights, who gets to move from one location to another every 6 months or so. I hope someone can find a solution. But I believe  is not involved in this, his behavioural style is very different (he's kind of a romantic dude). पाटलिपुत्र  Pat   (talk) 17:56, 15 September 2019 (UTC)

This case is. CU declined.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:20, 23 September 2019 (UTC)
 * As the disruption seems to have ended, and CU has already been declined, I'm going to mark this for closure without action. –Darkwind (talk) 08:51, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
