SouL Viper has had Draft:SouL Viper, a promotional autobiography, reject for being blatant advertising and then tagged for speedy deletion under WP:G11. Noobda69's first ever edit was User:Noobda69/sandbox/Soul Viper, which is a copy-paste of the draft. Puru Sudhir Gupta is a likely sock given the account's first and only edit was the draft.

 * Added, as it is a child account created by one of the suspected sock users. It's usually worth also blocking child accounts created by parent accounts if they're blocked for sock puppetry violations.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   07:45, 21 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Easy open-and-shut case. The second account was created after the draft page of the first account was deleted, and the user pasted the text (even including part of a template) into their user sandbox, which had to have come from the draft page. The other two accounts are child accounts created by the two parent accounts, and hence are considered to be included as well. Indef'd, tagged, closing SPI report...  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   07:50, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

Open and shut case per WP:DUCK. User:Sudhir Gupta Puru/sandbox is an exact copy of the previous autobiography SouL Viper and his socks have tried to publish. GPL93 (talk) 14:34, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
