Sangha357 was on 23 May. Sangha357 attempted to create articles about reality TV stars and heavily edited similar articles. On 31 May a new account, Sanga26, appeared and proceeded to edit reality TV star articles. They recreated identical articles at AfC to those of Sanga357, for example [this one], compared to [this earlier one]. Sionk (talk) 23:26, 1 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Obvious duck. Next admin by please indef the Sangha26 account. I figure that with the master already blocked all that's needed is a note to Sangha357 informing them about WP:SOCKPUPPET, but it's the Sangha26 blocker's call as to if the Sangha357 block needs to be extended or not.

Sangha357 was blocked on 20 June for disruptive editing and uploading copyrighted photos. Jenifer27 appeared on 27 June, editing and creating similar articles. Particularly Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Diana Vickers's second album, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Misha B and User:Jenifer27/Rachel Adedeji stand out as previous Sangha357 articles that were deleted at AfD. Jenifer27 also uploaded a on 13 July using an identical rationale to those used by Sangha357 (e.g. ). Sionk (talk) 21:38, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

 * comment I've dealt with this user and it looks very WP:DUCK-ish to me. I'd also do a sweep for any additional accounts and keep an eye open for anything new that gets created if socks are found. - eo (talk) 22:23, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

 * Obviously ✅, didn't see any other accounts. Range blocking does not appear to be a realistic option, so protection and blocking is the best thing to do I'm afraid. WilliamH (talk) 22:31, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Blocked and tagged. T. Canens (talk) 02:54, 15 July 2012 (UTC)
