Submitra looks like a sleeper account; a few edits in 2014/2015, then nothing until 2019 when they created Draft:Cisternostomy as a paid article. The only other consequential edits to the draft are from the other two socks, who have made no other edits outside of this topic. -- RoySmith (talk) 20:24, 15 October 2019 (UTC)

 * The following accounts are ✅ technically to one another, but are all using different devices. WP:MEAT is likely, could be coworkers collaborating on the article:
 * No additional accounts are visible. I'll return the case to or another admin for action. ST47 (talk) 06:10, 16 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Block each for 6 months for meatpuppeting. Closing.  Vanjagenije  (talk)  21:25, 16 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Got edit-conflicted with User:Vanjagenije. What I was going to say was:
 * Submitra and AnjanFMSharma have disclosed that they're paid editors in the employ of Techart Trekkies Pvt. Ltd. The Protik and Rachhita have made no such declaration.  I'm assuming "conformed technically to one another" means they're all on the same IP or small range of IPs, so the others are obviously also with Techart  The Techart Trekkies corporate web site lists somebody whose name matches User:Rachhita.  So, the later two are clearly WP:UPE, but I don't see any clear policy statement on whether we block for that.
