Suspected sockpuppets

All of the accounts follow a similar username pattern, as well has having little to no edits outside of Draft:Sahnil Bhatnagar. After being deleted twice (Deletion log), the page has been repeatedly recreated at that location, and also at Draft:Sahnil bhatnagar (Actor) (now a redirect) and at Draft:Sahnil Bhatnagar (Digital Influencer). Thus, some salting might be needed.

The SPI was opened as suggested by AngusWOOF when I dropped a note on an admins talk page. Thanks, Giraffer munch 07:01, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, meant to type Sonaigoyal1, but you got it. Thanks, Giraffer munch 11:49, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Adding Sahnil Bhatnagar's name to various list articles: diff:[1], diff: [2], diff: [3]. Same promotional behaviors as previous socks under this sockmaster. | Uncle Milty | talk | 17:46, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  •   Administrator note - clearly the same user, similar username pattern and identical interest. Blocked indef per behaviour, IP for a month,   CheckUser requested for the accounts as it looks like a load of other sleepers were revealed by it last time. ~ mazca talk 18:40, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  The CheckUser Magic 8-Ball says: I can't help with this.   No comment with respect to IP address(es). Closing since everyone is blocked anyway. Reaper Eternal (talk) 20:40, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Users are SPAs and have created biographical articles of the same subject all of other editors blocked in this SPI have. Quack[5] Quack[6] Quack[7] | Uncle Milty | talk | 13:34, 18 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please also see correspondence on Wikipedia:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/Help_desk#02:14:43,_18_October_2020_review_of_submission_by_Aamirabusy. While there may be offers to rewrite the article, there is still tendentious resubmitting of both (Actor) and (TV Actor) articles. May need Checkuser to see if they are coming from the same IP addresses, but it sounds very SPA-ish. Unfortunately their initial drafts [8] and [9] are the same content as what's been MFDed multiple times; you can tell from the IMDb references.

For what it's worth, I watchlisted every page that has been linked in this SPI and am monitoring the drafts for CSD so any new pages shouldn't last long. Giraffer munch 22:55, 18 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Has created Draft:Sahnil (actor) and then also filled WP:Sandbox with the same article. Behavior similar to previous socks of this puppeteer. Checkuser sleeper search requested. | Uncle Milty | talk | 15:39, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Adding Sahnil Bhatnagar to Aadha Full here and here. No references support this addition. | Uncle Milty | talk | 19:44, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I neglected to mention that these actions are similar to previous puppets of this account. Checkuser requested for possible sleepers. | Uncle Milty | talk | 12:29, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Creating drafts for MTV shows Elovator Pitch and Warrior High for the purposes of putting Sahnil Bhatnagar's name in the starring credits. [10] Requesting checkuser to ensure it is coming from the same region as the usual Sahnil promoters. Warrior High already got deleted for G11 advertising.

Added Guddijain, whose only edit has been to add Sahnil Bhatnagar to Aadat Se Majboor (TV series) here: [11] with no evidence that the person has ever starred on that show. | Uncle Milty | talk | 21:22, 6 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This was re-created 17 July 2021 after the 14 July 2021 version was reported. Same crappy references as before. WP:DUCK quacking, except this has more promotional social media links. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 01:45, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

After handful of dummy edits made another creation of Sahnil Bhatnagar, first as Draft:Actor Sahnil Bhatnagar, then after a declined AfC submission, copy pasted into Sahnil Bhatnagar (Actor). User clearly trying to bypass salting of regular article/draft title with their naming. Nothing new since last AfD, and it is once again sourced to a lot of social medial references.
