Suspected master is now globally locked due to abuse. The suspected sock has a very similar username and also the same common interest in editing Rifat Hasan Rabbi. If they are the same person, then the sock also needs a global lock. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 22:59, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

 * There used to be a way to request a global lock using spi.helper, but I don't see it as a choice anymore.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:39, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
 * . The option should show up if you select Block/Tag socks, and then check the relevant checkboxes in the Req Lock? column.  --Blablubbs (talk) 23:53, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

 * The drafts seem to be about different people with the same name. The version created by the sockmaster said that the subject was a musician and college student who was born in Barguna on November 12. Morshedul's draft is about a middle-aged activist who was born on January 17 in Chattogram. Obviously there are some COI/promo issues here, but I don't think this is a sock, so I'm closing this without action from a SPI perspective. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 17:41, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
