!voted Keep at Articles for deletion/American Party of Labor (2nd nomination), and then Evann31, an SPA with 1 edit, also !voted keep. Likewise with AxderWraith Crimson. This wouldn't be much evidence on its own, but the exact same thing happened at the only other deletion discussion Unrequestedsillything participated in: Articles for deletion/Grover Furr. There were plenty of SPAs at that discussion such as. This is still loose evidence, but AxderWraith Crimson edits in much of the same very specific areas as Unrequestedsillything. AxderWraith Crimson edits the "Grover Fur" article and talk page debating whether or not Grover was a "historical negationist" and whether or not he distorts evidence/etc (taking the position that Grover Furr is legitimate).. Note they also edited Katyn Massacre with Meanwhile, while Unrequestedsillything has never edited the Grover Furr article, they've spent plenty of time debating him at AfD and on the talk page of the Katyn massacre, mainly debating whether or not Furr is reliable (taking the position that he is). The behavioural evidence is strong enough for a CU I'd say. The only issue is that the timelines don't match up; with Unrequestedsillything having made their account very early and infrequently editing thereafter. I believe this is because it may be possible that both AxderWraith, Evann31 and Unrequestedsillything are sockpuppets of another editor or perhaps it's some offwiki coordinated meatpuppetry. Either way though, there's a decent chunk of circumstantial evidence that these accounts are operating in tandem. Chess (talk) (please use&#32; on reply) 00:21, 16 December 2021 (UTC)

Just thought I'd add this for some context. One of the accounts did admit to opening a new account just to vote in the particular AfD. Just providing this for context to support 's claim. Spf121188 (talk) 17:42, 16 December 2021 (UTC)

 * All three accounts appear to be ❌ from a technical standpoint. Mz7 (talk) 03:48, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Closing with no action. Off-wiki canvassing for AFDs happens all the time, especially for those related to politics.  That doesn't make it socking. -- RoySmith (talk) 02:04, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
