Continuing the pattern of behaviour of previously blocked sock-puppets Shayansoleymani and Tajikam123, and less so the sockmaster Screwyafeelings. Shayansoleimany is clearly a simple renaming of Shayansoleymani. The main pattern is to claim that the Tajik and Dari languages are simply Persian (Farsi), and another pattern is to downplay the importance of Pashto relative to "Persian". Between them they have made many edits. Classic examples are Malik.223 changing Dari to Farsi, Shayansoleimany removing Pashto language, and Shayansoleimany doing both.

 * - But, Shayansoleymani was previously found to be unrelated to Screwyafeelings (see here: Sockpuppet investigations/Nazak22/Archive). Why do you think they are connected?  Vanjagenije   (talk)  15:15, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Oh, thanks. I had followed this trail to  which points to Screwyafeelings. As I noted above, Screwyafeelings has a slightly different style of editing (but I assumed that the aim of the person had changed a bit, become refined as it were). Thought I was doing the right thing by chasing back to the documented sock-master. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 15:37, 12 August 2015 (UTC)


 * - All those previous accounts are . We can only compare Shayansoleimany and Malik.223 t oeach other.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  16:14, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
 * and are technically ❌. However Malik.223 is ✅ to, who shares an editing content interest with Shayansoleimany. Haven't blocked any of them yet, as this needs a more detailed behavioural assessment. -- Euryalus (talk) 14:03, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
 * IP:72.46.134.18 shows a similar pattern. This edit, this one, and this one restoring the same material as Malik.223.
 * Malik.223 has created maps in Commons that are duplicates of existing maps with information removed (here) or altered (here) and is inserting them in numerous wikipedias and EN wiktionary (e.g., here and here) reducing the quality of the pages (e.g., in this edit in the DE wikipedia where the map caption no longer applies, and the putative socks are enhancing this degradation.

 * Note that is also ✅ to . I will be blocking these two accounts, along with  from ' check above shortly. -- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots  20:05, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Perhaps the three accounts I blocked above should be broken out into a separate SPI under as we don't have confirmation on a master? I also checked them against  but they appear  to be related from a technical standpoint.-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots  20:13, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I created a separate case at Sockpuppet investigations/SaharZIRIZ. Closing this now.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  22:33, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
