Accounts created with two days of one another. Suspected sock created Anurag Kartik Thakur, which is basically an attack page. It mentions a lot about a supposed religion: "The tenth avatar of Lord Vishnu... He is the crusader of an Old Religion - Shani Sanatan Dharma, and working to revive it and make it the most popular religion of World... Anurag Kartik Thakur is widely believed to be Kalki - which stands for Kartikeya, Lambodar and Kisna - Three Gods in One. The second level of rule of Trinity. He is widely believed to be Jesus Christ, Prophet Mohammad and Guru Nanak himself." Suspected sock also edited Shani Sanatan Dharma, which is a (likely) hoax religion page created by the suspected master, and was mentioned in the previous article. Same sort of thing if you take a look. Similarly, the Shani article also mentions Anurag Thakur. Both articles mention Vishnu, Jesus, Guru Nanak, Larry Page, Sonia Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi, Narendra Modi and Sergey Brin; both editors tag all their edits as minor, and usually use Visual edit. Also, compare edit summaries:. There are probably more names duplicated and other similarities, but the first page is deleted. This looks like coordinated hoaxing to me.
