While Cedix is obviously a sockpuppet, registering on 4 April and spending his next day on multiple AfDs, it appears to be established on a separate device than TheBirdsShedTears, and is used for votestacking where TheBirdsShedTears is not feeling well enough to cast his !vote per WP:BADHAND.

Then there are other edits that makes these both accounts look fishy enough.

It started out with Articles_for_deletion/2020_Tablighi_Jamaat_coronavirus_hotspot_in_Delhi where Cedix voted and contributed a lot get the article deleted, reverted a non-admin close, and even went to DRV about the same AfD. After seeing unfavorable results (article was restored) we see that TheBirdsShedTears would be the one to create a retaliatory WP:HOAX article as Coronavirus pandemic anti-Muslim riots in India which was deleted after Articles for deletion/Coronavirus pandemic anti-Muslim riots in India. Now since the latter was nominated by the same user who has nominated this new AfD as well, Cedix goes ahead to attack the same person as if he is holding a grudge contrary to the fact that the AfD was on the verge of WP:SNOW delete.

If Cedix isn't TheBirdsShedTears then he couldn't miss this AfD and if TheBirdsShedTears isn't Cedix then he couldn't miss this AfD. It seems both accounts are abused by same person wanting to avoid direct overlap but still violating WP:SOCK by editing Wikipedia space concerning same subject.

 * I have ran Cedix and will come up with different results for them, but I am sure, without running TheBirdsShedTears that it's not them. -- Amanda  (aka DQ) 00:24, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
