 * Such a coincidence that Suryabeej would launch this AFD and then they !vote on their own AfD demanding a SALT. Almost 24 hours later, a brand new editor (JAHANZAIBARIF), who has never made an edit before, comments on the AfD supporting delete and SALT. (Diff)
 * And then we have Suryabeej declaring that while JAHANZAIBARIF might look like a SPA, they make a "very correct" point about supporting salt. (Diff) Missvain (talk) 02:52, 25 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Well I appreciate the initiative by against vandalism on WP, and I also Insist that an SPI must check this case in order to clear the doubt of sock puppetry, But opening cases like this on SPI wont turn me into one as I KNOW THAT I AM NOT AT ALL A SOCK, if someone's taking initiative to get spam or puff articles deleted on WP that doesn't makes them a sock, rest I will leave it on the SPI closing Clerk, Thanks and Regards Suryabeej (talk) 08:44, 25 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Comment: So here in this WP:SPI I also want to be involved and I want to request CheckUser that when my account was compromised on the 15th of May there were some contributions after my account was compromised. Will you check the IP range between Suryabeej JAHANZAIBARIF and we're forgetting a user here Gopaldhakal777 who had also claimed the same thing which JAHANZAIBARIF just came back from his sleep just to comment on Articles for deletion/Prakash Neupane (4th nomination) after this sockpuppet investigations.

 * So after my recent comment you've come here. No worries I also want this sockpuppet investigation to complete because I know I'm not related to the nominator. Anyways everything should be clear after CheckUser completes this. Cheers. JAHANZAIBARIF (talk)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 * – there are many concerning aspects to this case, and especially given the broader context (BEANS and whatnot, feel free to email me or ping me on IRC for details), I would assume that a brand new account showing up to !vote delete in this AfD is a sock of some sort or other. I assume we're going to encounter difficult ranges or proxies, but it's worth a look. If you have any other present or previous accounts, now is the time to disclose.  --Blablubbs&#124;talk 09:12, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Suryabeej and JAHANZAIBARIF are ❌, and I see no evidence of proxy abuse, but CU cannot rule out meatpuppetry or off-wiki coordination . The other accounts named on this page did not come up in my checks, but I also did not check those accounts specifically. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 01:04, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
 * My suspicion is meatpuppetry, but given that JAHANZAIBARIF hasn't edited since the AfD closed, I'm going to let it slide at this time. Closing. GeneralNotability (talk) 01:21, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
 * @GeneralNotability I'll respect your decision to leave them unblocked, but will note for the archives this WP_AN thread for additional context that future investigators should avail themselves of. You may be right that this is meat rather than sock, but either way, there's a metric boatload of WP:NOTHERE going on. -- RoySmith (talk) 12:16, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
