Reviewguru was created in 2019, creating Draft:Cameron Cartee and placing his name in several articles:.

Account was dormant until 2021, and then went active in August 2021 voting in the Cameron Cartee Afd:, and immediately thereafter creating a userpage:.

The Dcimds account was created on 16 July 2021, but did not edit until 27 July which is suspicious. They then made 12 whitespace/single-char/single-word edits (e.g. ...), created a user page, and went on to create Cameron Cartee with perfectly  formatted references.

Dcimds is obviously not a new user, and gamed WP:AUTOCONFIRM status.  Eostrix  (&#x1F989; hoot hoot&#x1F989;) 07:25, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

 * I checked Dcimds based on the gaming AC and the pasting of a fully formatted article, and did not turn up any sockpuppets. I decline to check Reviewguru directly, as I don't see sufficient evidence to do so. I've seen a lot of sockpuppets at AfD, and that AfD doesn't look too irregular. Even without the suspected sockpuppet's comment, the outcome would have likely been keep or no consensus. Without double-voting (which would be a clear violation of PROJSOCK), I don't think a single AfD vote warrants a check, even with Reviewguru's account's history. Recommend closing the SPI.
