Suspected sockpuppets
WondrousMachine created their account today, and PRODed Krtin Nithiyanandam. After PROD was removed, they opened an AfD (2nd nomination for the subject,) here. They also casted a !vote. A few minutes later, Tanner68573 was created, and their first and only edit was a vote to delete. I realize this isn't block evasion, but this looks like either off-wiki coordination to delete an article, or meatpuppetry. Seems a little fishy to me.

 * Just noting that WondrousMachine has requested (and received) vanishing since this SPI was filed. I agree that the behaviors of both accounts are strange and seem connected. DanCherek (talk) 02:12, 16 September 2022 (UTC)

 * Vanishing has been reversed on the master account. Dreamy Jazz talk to me &#124; my contributions 15:02, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
 * - please indef both accounts. Their only purpose in being here seems to be to get this article deleted, and the AfD votestacking and vanishing after the SPI was opened constitute obvious attempts at deception. If they wish to make productive edits in the future, they can explain that in an unblock request. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 20:06, 16 September 2022 (UTC)
