Towards the end of March the suspected master created various alternative versions of an A7 article Sanat Sawant which was temp salted. The master was indeffed but today along comes a new editor (possible block evasion), makes 10 edits then re-creates same article, same picture, a bit too much of a coincidence JW 1961 Talk 17:36, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment - Certainly suspicious. At best, this is meatpuppetry. If they do turn out to be the same, then we can WP:G5 this new article. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 17:45, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

Although this quacks like a muscovy duck this looks like the start of another sock push to get Draft:Sanat Sanjiv Sawant into WP. On that basis there are like to be sleepers, hence my CU request Fiddle   Faddle  06:42, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
 * adding 2405:201:6:aa3c:d063:118b:fd:1373 who has just appeared. Not unusual for IPs just to edit one draft, but what a coincidence that it arrives immediately I decline the draft  Fiddle   Faddle  07:01, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

turned up to defend deletion of his master's voice. Draft talk:Sanat Sanjiv Sawant. No other edits form this IP. Probably simple block evasion. Reported here for completeness Fiddle   Faddle  20:08, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Edits since deleted, but the ISP assigns IPs very dynamically and the range is too busy to block. Closing. Blablubbs&#124;talk 13:08, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

Should be WP:DUCK blocked due to username similarity to previous socks and for creating Sanat Sawant again. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 11:43, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Yep, more vanity spam. There's also who is an obvious sock blanking speedy tags (albeit with some difficulty ).  – please indef both accounts, G5 the page and consider upping the salt to EC or full protection. Thanks and best,  Blablubbs&#124;talk 11:55, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

Should be WP:DUCK blocked due to username similarity to previous socks and for creating Sanat Sawant again. Sanat Sawant also needs to be re-salted. Curbon7 (talk) 07:53, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
