VVK is already blocked as WP:NOTHERE. HVK created Vicky kadian (dancer) a recreation of Vicky kadian. Special:WhatLinksHere/Vicky kadian shows the previous socks. The unblock request at User talk:Harrywood vicky kadian, handled by likely relates to the block imposed on VKD on 14 Aug or the weeklong block on VVK which had roughly 45 minutes left to run. The CSD notices I've seen for Vicky kadian don't match the number of deletions - likely to be at least one more sock out there - Vicky's already cottoned on to deleting talk page evidence - Special:Diff/796358427 Quack!

Vicky6814: obvious sock, new editor and a near WP:SPA adding unsourced or poorly-sourced claims about Vicky Kadian. First article creation, a few days after creating the account, was Facebook Wala Pyar, starring Vicky Kadian. Third article created a few days later was Vicky Kadian (1998), latest spelling variant to get around the salted correct title, with highly unreliable references (often at odds with each other about which film he's been in).
