The possible master removed speedy deletion tag from the page created by the possible sock. Username of both users has Oreolilly in common (Simbalillyoreo - Oreolillyaga10) which strikes my mind. The first edit of the possible sock was adding categories and defaultsort template at Kaustubh Marathe and then WikiProject at Talk:Kaustubh Marathe a page created by the master (See diff ) which is really uncommon for new user. Use of Visual editor is very common in both users. Editor Interaction Analyser shows a number of edits they made on each other's articles (see report). The another behaviour which is really common in both users is creating article talk page just after they create an article. Both users mentioned "Academic" interest while contesting speedy deletion on article's talk page. GSS (talk) 12:31, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

SPA user registered few days after block the master and the first edit was to create Renae Smith and then added a wikilink in Adi Agashé (an article created by the master). Creating article talk page just after they create an article and self-assessing as stub class is very similar to the master and previous sock. Editor Interaction Analyser shows a number of edits Seadonkey1999 made on master's articles and again the use of visual editor is very similar. I doubt undisclosed paid editing here or they must be creating articles for their family members and their companies as per the list of relatives in Adi Agashé and the list of articles created by Seadonkey1999.

 * I just notice that the use of The Exclamation Mark is exactly the same as master (see this by Seadonkey1999 and this by the master). GSS (talk |c|em ) 05:04, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Notice some more similarities, The use of punctuation (.) in edit summary and the way Seadonkey1999 reply e.g. copy and paste whole Example in comment as it is and then adding the exclamation mark (Hello Example !) is very much similer to the master.

Hello fellow Wikipedians! I am not aware of any user who has an account that goes by the above name. I am aware of my partiality towards my edits and creations of articles of the people of Pune, as I live and work in this city. I assure you, there is no payment by any of the subjects of the articles to me for making any changes. As I live in Pune, I am aware of the history of this city and simply wish to add information to wikipedia about the families and the various members of these old families that have contributed so much to it.

I began on the Renae Smith article, as an avid foodie, I attended the event that was organized by the subject and Adi Agashé last year and decided to catch up on what the both of them were up to, and so began my account editing those pages. Any sock-puppetry was mere coincidence. As for the edits on all the various relatives of the latter subject, we, especially those who live in older parts of Pune, are aware of these notable individuals from these old, noble families and the institutions they founded as they have impacted our city's landscape tremendously. The latter's article, was the easiest place for me to start. There are a wide range of books, collections, plaques, and registration/subscription based or public records that are available which I access in my free time (most of them unfortunately, are available only in physical form as many records have not be digitized). As any aristocratic systems go, most individuals from these families are related to each other, some even multiple times because of upperclass inbreeding. I am currently working on accessing, translating and updating Wikipedia on the rich history on the Patwardhan dynasty.

I apologize for my partiality, and promise to contribute to a wide range of articles on Wikipedia henceforth, instead of those I am most comfortable with. Thank you for understanding and excusing me of my mistakes. Seadonkey1999 (talk) 13:34, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

This new user has started editing very quickly. They have recreated the page Vidya Valley School and Aaryans World School in substantial detail (which the sockmaster previously created and was deleted, see this log entry. A blocked sock, Seadonkey (see archive) also added this page to a list.

There is also considerable similarity of edits of Indian actresses - see both the blocked sock and the suspect editing Indian actresses adding tags.

Note: if i'm right, both, Vidya Valley School, Aaryans World School will need to be speedy G5'd. Matthew Thompson talk to me! 13:37, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

 * - No smoking gun here (e.g. the content of the two versions of Vidya Valley School is different) but enough to justify a check. King of &hearts;   &diams;   &clubs;  &spades; 20:16, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

Baldclock Was registered few days after blocked the previous sock Redblueshoes and he immediately started creating articles on the same family and recreation of Sheetal Agashe is one of them which is very similar to the deleted version. He also recreated Anant Gadgil under different title as Anant "Dajikaka" Gadgil and I’m unable to find who created Anant Gadgil earlier. GSS (talk |c|em ) 11:13, 31 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Just found the use of Exclamation Mark and his English (see here) is very similar to previous sock Seadonkey1999. GSS (talk |c|em ) 11:31, 31 August 2017 (UTC)
