Per their own statement on my talk page. It looks like they might have other identities, too. It's possible that they'll eventually figure out how to write neutrally, but sockpuppet policy isn't my speciality and I am not going to do a "go back to your first account to appeal" block.

My page was removed because of too many promotional lines written about tryst(Tech fest of IIT Delhi). But IIT Bombay page of techfest is active and on that page, this comment is there ''This article contains content that is written like an advertisement. Please help improve it by removing promotional content and inappropriate external links, and by adding encyclopedic content written from a neutral point of view. (August 2021)'' But still their page is fine so I just want you guys to at least start our page and then I can change whatever looks promotional — Preceding unsigned comment added by Snehil4 (talk • contribs) 16:11, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

I am very new to Wikipedia and i don't know much about the policy so I tried with Snehil2 and Snehil4 to make the same draft but it got deleted so now tell me how to make a page that does not get deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Snehil4 (talk • contribs) 16:16, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

 * The master was soft-blocked, entitling the user to create one account, but not two. Regardless of their alleged ignorance of socking policy, this user is not an asset to the project. Blocked, tagged, closing. Bbb23 (talk) 17:07, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I found another, Snehil1, blocking and tagging. Bbb23 (talk) 17:12, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets


After 3 of their sockpuppets were blocked yesterday they created another account to submit an article Draft:Tryst_-_IIT_Delhi. The draft was deleted 3 times yesterday under the title Draft:Tryst_IITD. >>> Ingenuity . talk ; 16:03, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Per, it was KenKaneki1803's employee that created those other accounts. -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 17:40, 2 March 2022 (UTC)


 * @Deepfriedokra That just says UPE. Value to Wikipedia seems to be nil, even if that UTRS appeal is true Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 23:01, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * That's what I told him at UTRS! Meat puppet trying to control the damage already done yet making it worse. -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 23:05, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * @Deepfriedokra My instinct is that he has had enough rope already. He is not here except for advertising purposes and thus has zero value to us. He also instructs his poor subordinates (great choice of word, that, and by him) to advertise his company.  Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 23:09, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Not sure where you're coming from. He's already hanged. I was just tying up /documeting the loose end of him confirming his UPE sockiness at UTRS. -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 23:11, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * @Deepfriedokra same place as you but late to the party I guess  Fiddle Timtrent  Faddle Talk to me 23:27, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

FWIW, KenKaneki1803 claims on their talk that I misunderstood. Claims he is their "senior" at school. I leave this to those brighter than I to ponder. -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 13:21, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

 * Blocked and tagged. I'm leaving the report open in case a clerk wants to endorse a CU to look for sleepers. Bbb23 (talk) 16:19, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * - since we're up to 5 accounts now I think it's worth a quick check for any others. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 04:05, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

 * OK, so is no more than  to the previous batch of accounts - same big country, different IP ranges and UA. I'm content for the block to remain in place in light of the editing though, whether this is true sock, meat or a different UPE working on the same brief doesn't really matter.
 * I did find another couple of accounts that are ✅ to the previous batch though (which are all confirmed to one another):
 * I'll block these new ones; perhaps someone else could review the account ages and tags, I need to dash. Girth Summit  (blether)  10:47, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Saketsnehil goes back to Feb, 22, 2022. -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 13:09, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Tryst, the day after. I guess y'all'll want to move there. -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 13:11, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I've moved to Saketsnehil - apart from being the oldest, it contains the 'snehil' username part common to most of the other socks, so is probably more pertinent. Reblocked/tagged confirmed socks, closing. Girth Summit  (blether)  16:09, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
