All of these suspected sockpuppet accounts have edited the page Draft:Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety. Also, Pari (2018 film) has been edited by both Sadique M and Ghost No One. Finally, one of those usernames, Anmol8860, is similar to another blocked sockpuppet, Anmol.gan93. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 01:05, 27 January 2018 (UTC)

 * The listed suspected sockpuppet hasn't edited in two months, so there's not much point in taking any action. Feel free to reopen if the suspected sockpuppet begins editing again. --Deskana (talk) 10:18, 16 June 2018 (UTC)

The case is. CU declined.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:09, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
 * How is that indicative of sockpuppetry by Virasatgaur? Best I can tell, they've never created an article about Rozlyn Khan. Sir Sputnik (talk) 16:19, 26 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Based on that Rajeevnandeshwar appears unrelated. With a five year gap between creations, recreation of Rozlyn Khan by someone else falls well within the realm of possibility, and if they were connected to Virasatgaur the CU checks run on this case in January would probably have picked them up. 2222hancock might be Virasatgaur, but since they've been inactive for over two years, there's not much point in looking into this any deeper.
