Wikilover2604 created Draft:Buchalter, which was deleted under WP:G11. A few hours later, the draft was recreated, as an almost identical copy, by AutumnLeaves95. -- RoySmith (talk) 22:23, 8 May 2018 (UTC)

 * While I cannot see the previous version of this draft, the current version is quite clearly not G11-eligible. Is the timing suspicious? Sure. Is it enough to prove block evasion/sockpuppetry? I don't think so. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 00:16, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I also see now that Wikilover2604 was blocked by a checkuser back in January. I'm not sure what to make of that., can you comment? —Compassionate727 (T·C) 00:18, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I have no special memory of that block... you could check my block log to see if I blocked anyone for the same rationale at nearly the same time, but I'm already on my sleeping pills. Courcelles (talk) 00:51, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
 * You blocked five other accounts on the same day as sockpuppets of Jasleen Ahluwalia, but this particular account was not mentioned anywhere. —Compassionate727 (T·C) 01:58, 9 May 2018 (UTC)

Only activity this account ever had was related to Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Buchalter, plus style of writing especially in edit comments. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:09, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

 * While this might be very well be the same person, they're unlikely to come back to it after nine months of inactivity. Closing. Sir Sputnik (talk) 00:04, 12 May 2018 (UTC)

Seems an editor (User:CoachCarter14) has expanded a redirect to effectively recreate Buchalter, an article with a history of attracting the Wikilover2604 sockfarm. CoachCarter14 expanded upon the Buchalter redirect with a series of very large edits all made within minutes of eachother. The article is also in very good condition (structurally speaking), which is highly suspicious given CoachCarter14's only other edits (all three of them) were incredibly minor. Requesting checkuser.
