Suspected sockpuppets

Articles for deletion/WRENN (2nd nomination) follows a similar pattern to Articles for deletion/WRENN, where V.Putnam comments on one article, and then randomly comments on other AfDs to distract from their activity as a single purpose account. This follows a pattern of overciting WP:TOOSOON that was also echoed by SPAs in the original AfD that also followed the pattern of citing TOOSOON and randomly commenting on other AfDs.

On the current AfD, AdityaBahl is following the same pattern that VikramRaphii did on the original, commenting after V.Putnam and then commenting on seemingly random AfDs with wikilinks to policy and being fond of TOOSOON. It could be meatpuppetry rather than pure socking, but looks like a WP:DUCK here. I'm including VikramRaphii in the report even though it looks inactive for ease of comparison between editing patterns on the accounts from the first AfD and the current one TonyBallioni (talk) 17:18, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
