New SPA has been focused on the same few topics as master and last blocked sock User:अ-ह: Ikkjutt Jammu (page moves, attempted speedy and AFD) and the actor Manoj Anand. Tried to create a content fork at IkkJutt Jammu Sanatan party Bharat dal, and redirect Ikkjutt Jammu there:. Tried to hijack and move Ekam Sanatan Bharat Dal, an Indian political group or name connected with Ikkjutt Jammu, to Manoj Anand (actor):,. Tried to send Ikkjutt Jammu to AFD:. Master seems to have a problem with Ikkjutt Jammu being described as a political party, but is unwilling or unable to improve the article in-situ. There are sock and suspected sock categories for master already, and it seems like the right time to create an SPI: User:Ponyo and User:GB fan have been involved in the blocking and reverting.

While I was filing this, User:Liz blocked User:मनोकुमार as a sock of User:अ-ह. Wikishovel (talk) 17:32, 7 March 2024 (UTC)

Sleeper created 11 February (before previous SPI). First edit 1 March. 8 March, a dozen more edits for autoconfirm, oddly including helping in recreation of Manojanand Chaudhary at User:Rockjat/sandbox. And then pasting the result to Manoj Anand Chaudhary, now at Draft:Manoj Anand Chaudhary.

autocreated 10 March, following creation at HIwiki, where they mainly edited the Manoj Anand Hindi article. Here, they made a dozen edits for autoconfirm, including an unexplained deletion at Ikkjutt Jammu (see also edits there by (see also edits there by blocked socks User:मनोकुमार and User:अ-ह), and blanked 's edits at User:Rockjat/sandbox . Ooops. Requesting checkuser for further sleepers. Wikishovel (talk) 15:24, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

just nominated for speedy deletion Ikkjutt Jammu with the rationale "any party not available with this name", compare previous speedy attempt by blocked sock User:मनोकुमार with the rationale "advertising with wrong name":. Simultaneously, tried to nominate Ekam Sanatan Bharat Dal for speedy deletion, with the rationale "there are no need of redirection Ekam Sanatan Bharat Dal to IkkJutt Jammu":. All speedy noms declined by User:GB fan.

has now attempted an AFD at redirect Ekam Sanatan Bharat Dal, same as blocked sock User:अ-ह in the last SPI, and redirected Ankur Sharma (politician) there:. Wikishovel (talk) 15:31, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

has now tried redirecting Ankur Sharma (politician) from Ikkjutt Jammu to Ankur Sharma:. Wikishovel (talk) 16:12, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

Obvious block evasion. New SPA created 9 April. Edits so far have been to usual targets: Ikkjutt Jammu, Ekam Sanatan Bharat Dal party, Ekam Sanatan Bharat Dal Party, Manoj Mitta, another attempted hijack of dab page Ankur Sharma, and another recreation of Ankur Sharma (politician) from redirect following 3rd AFD. Wikishovel (talk) 10:33, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
 * And another attempt at blocked sock User:मनोकुमार's previous malformed AFD Articles for deletion/there are no political party active with this name at Ikkjutt Jammu, this time named Articles for deletion/this article has many wrong info, like as Ekam Sanatan Bharat Dal is different and IkkJutt Jammu in different. Both organisation have different different websites. Wikishovel (talk) 10:55, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
 * AFD now moved to WP:Articles for deletion/Ikkjutt Jammu. Wikishovel (talk)

Then tried to add a deletion tag to Ekam Sanatan Bharat Dal Party, while logged in:. Wikishovel (talk) 17:14, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
 * tried again to put a speedy tag on both redirects above:, . Semi-protection might be needed. Also tried to create new article at redirect Ekam Sanatan Bharat Dal, with bogus rationale in edit summary: "Restore the page with orginal content" . For context, please see last sockpuppet's bogus AFD from last week: Articles for deletion/Ikkjutt Jammu. Wikishovel (talk) 17:43, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
