Suspected sockpuppets

A look at their contributions indicate that they are probably ducks. Most probably paid or some other kind of COI editing, including many obscure actors and movies. Evidence include :
 * 1) Actor Neel Sethi was created by VaisakhVelayudhan on 17 April and Dhanu246 created Neel Sethi Actor on 16 April. The 16 April page was redirected on 17 April, probably causing VaisakhVelayudhan to create the article again with a new name, only for that to be redirected as well.
 * 2) Antichrist (Malayalam film) and Chunkzz were created by Dhanu246 and has been subsequently edited by VaisakhVelayudhan.
 * 3) Also seem to be pushing deleted articles under new names - Nebish Benson (Actor) (Speedy deleted earlier), Divyaprabha (deleted per Articles for deletion/Divya Prabha). So could be related to one of the creators of such articles as well.
 * 4) Sebanfernu (found him after starting the SPI, otherwise he is the probable sockmaster) is also adding Nebish and Shebin Benson's name to different articles, ,  etc, sometimes after one of the others add them and they end up getting reverted.  Jupitus Smart  19:42, 25 April 2017 (UTC)

 * The oldest account is Sebanfernu.
 * Sebanfernu and VaisakhVelayudhan are to each other and  to Dhanu246. Blocked all three, the last based on both technical and behavioral evidence, without tags.  Please move this case and tag the accounts as you see fit, but please do not use CU tags.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:36, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

I can't find who created Divya Prabha earlier when it was deleted in February 2017 but a month before Ajinrajs7273 uploaded this image of the subject as own work in commons. Ajinrajs7273 was quite active from the date he was registered and suddenly stopped editing the same day Bbb23 blocked other accounts. He then starts editing again in January 2018 made his first 10 edits using a mobile device and creating same kind of articles. Thank you – GSS (talk |c|em ) 17:21, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

There is no sign of Sebanfernu or socks editing earlier versions of Divya Prabha and no other obvious connection between Ajinrajs7273 and these editors that I can see, other than the date when he or she paused editing. Ben  Mac  Dui  19:07, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
