User is engaged in edit war on Afghan–Sikh Wars with User:120.21.61.157/User:120.21.57.81/User:120.21.229.161 almost certainly the same user WP:DUCK.

Examples of sockpuppetry behavior to get around EW:

IP *95 added "Sikh Victory" with and added it back twice as IP *76. Previously sockpuppeteer also was doing this same thing with an edit, see   etc.

And are still doing it now even after edit war notice to their page I made tonight, there was also an edit warring notice placed on their page 30 minutes earlier.

Socks have also done bulk revert of the other editors' changes back to one of their other account's last known edits, see which happened after the edit warring notice tonight, or.

Note the puppeteer account has been blocked for edit warring before and knows exactly what they are trying to avoid. Mr. Vernon (talk) 06:22, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

 * - The IPs have been rangeblocked 2600:387:5:807::/64 by . A next step block for the socking (3 days?) is in order. The edit warring (for which a level 4 warning has been given, and blanked) is beyond my remit. Cabayi (talk) 19:28, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
 * When you blocked the range for 3 months, did you also intend to block the user behind the edits for 3 months or indef? If so, it may be appropriate to block WorldWikiAuthorOriginal for those BLP violations for a longer period of time than 3 days. Kevin ( aka L235 · t · c) 19:42, 1 March 2020 (UTC)
