I assume that Wizard is the older account but not entirely sure. The master account, from the very start, has been here only to promote Alireza Jalili (actor). See and this. The newer account is someone claiming to be the brother of Alireza and is also an SPA here to promote Jalili only; no need to provide diffs as all of their edits are clearly about him, including creation of the article itself.

Perhaps the most damning evidence is at the AfD for Jalili, where both accounts use horizontal lines to separate the content of their votes, which is unusual behaviour. See Amir and Wizard. Also, neither of them signed their comment, although I admit that this is not that rare.

There are quite a number of SPAs at Muhammad: The Messenger of God (film) so a CU will be able to ascertain if there are others. Also, it's not entirely impossible that these two are in fact canvassing off-wiki rather than actual socks. Again, I hope CU will be able to enlighten us.

 * At max . Differing technical information, but same country. Dreamy Jazz talk to me &#124; my contributions 23:37, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't see enough behavioral match to take any action given Dreamy's "At max possible". Off-wiki canvassing of votes is common, so a couple of new users piling on to an AfD isn't enough reason to block. -- RoySmith (talk) 00:46, 5 January 2022 (UTC)
