Suspected sockpuppets

At

Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/2019_Delhi_Temple_attack the three suspected sockpuppets (one IP and two users) have all popped up within a few hours of the AFD being posted to object, and all within an hour of each other. In all three cases this is the only edit they have ever made. (edit - apologies, not strictly true, Vivekku3 had also made three edits to the 2019 Delhi Temple attack
page itself but I don't think that really alters my point).

The suspected master is a more established editor with edits other than to this page, but is the creator of the page in question and the three suspect socks all posted within an hour of him/her. Hugsyrup (talk) 12:37, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Added an additional account who has since edited the same page. Not quite an SPA but one of only two edits they have ever made. Hugsyrup (talk) 12:53, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for opening investigation. None of the accounts mentioned belongs to mine. Just that IP address is mine as I was forgot to login from my account at that time and I just posted comment which was posted on the description. Let the discussion and investigation held on. Thanks!--

Update:- I can wonder why so much comments are coming here. I’ve mistakenly posted the link of talk about deletion page on my Twitter handle and traffic are coming here from there. Only one IP address is mine and that was just used to transfer comment of description to talk page. I appreciate your understanding. — Preceding

@Harshil169: that's likely a form of WP:Canvassing. Are you okay with linking to the tweet? –MJLTalk 15:56, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected sockpuppets

First, I has a lot of talk with the main suspected sockmaster user:Harshil169 but somehow there is always someguy who make his account recently directly in support of Harshil169. And trying to manipulate the issue somehow. But the main suspect is Rutvik P Shah[1] by manipulating (something like this) [2]. Second, my suspicion is about user Krishna's flute. This account was made some days ago too and voted in favour of deletion of my article.( Voting is not the evidence). My evidence is that th user Krishna's flute opened the same discussion i.e. crticism of Swaminarayana Sampradaya sect, same as that which is advocated by Harshil169. Check this [3] by user Krishnas flute and this[4] discussion on merging of criticism of

Swaminarayan Sampraday
by user Harshil169. These account has similarities with Harshil169. Like specifically attacking my edits and voting for deletion of my article(I am not saying voting against me is an evidence) but involving in same discussion like Criticism of Swami Narayana Sampradaya. Third, the IP adress is also involved in the same discussion trying to manipulate the views(check here[5] ) on talk page, same like user Rutvik P Shah. These are the evidence that I have provided against user Harshil169 for sockpuppeteering. Edward Zigma (talk) 11:22, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@MJL:- Apart from his bio is there any proof that he edited for 3 years.Edward Zigma (talk) 19:46, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Edward Zigma: Please change your report to diffs, not refs, and do NOT use mobile diffs.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:38, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Edward Zigma: The way to fix that is to remove the ".m" in the hostname, and change "MobileDiff" to just plain "Diff" in the URL. I've gone ahead and done that for you. -- RoySmith (talk) 16:35, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Clerk assistance requested: The filer requested a CU. There is obviously a lot of bad blood between the filer and the alleged master. I would like a clerk to analyze the evidence and decide in the first instance whether there is enough evidence to move forward, and if the answer is yes, whether to endorse a check.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:36, 25 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • There has been no traction on this report in the last few days. I am therefore closing it with no action.--Bbb23 (talk) 21:13, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
