Suspected sockpuppets

 * ( original case name)

These are obvious enough to be blocked even without CU, but I confirmed them and placed CU blocks. The thing is, I have no doubt that this is a continuation of someone else's work, and I am hoping that one of you CUs/clerks/admins will know who it is. They're pretty blatant.

I checked one (big, blocked) range and found User talk:Ikomengramaditya and User talk:Crazybangladesiooooha. Drmies (talk) 16:20, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

Pattern of edits on Nepali based articles. Timing of user account creation. Mimics my username. I have nominated all three for AIV, but might pattern of a larger sock ring so bringing it to SPI. Classicwiki (talk) If you reply here, please ping me. 04:36, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

More evidence is here: one of the first edits of new suspected sockpuppet was the addition of a romanization. This was a recurrent pattern with all earlier socks, e.g.. Plus their edits in Balinese people which has become a compendium of socks of this sockmaster. –Austronesier (talk) 16:30, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

Restored the same content (though self reved ) as the confirmed sock. IP range doing the same with census data like precious IPs/users. IP range is also from the same location - Indonesia. Fylindfotberserk (talk) 11:50, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

Adding per WP:DUCK. Almost identical username with recently block sock and great overlap after ony 49 edits. Also lots of IP socking (another one is, see previously filed SPI) which might warrant a range block. –Austronesier (talk) 18:05, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
