On his user page, 0"cleopatra"0 takes credit for some articles actually created by User:Xavier 500.30.10, such as Ganeshamangalam. Someone might look over the creations by 0"cleopatra"0 to see if they actually deserve to be articles. I have done an indef SPI block of 0"cleopatra"0 under this case but someone else can decide whether to tag. Some other socks of Xavier 500.30.10 have been globally locked. I suggest that User:0"cleopatra"0 also be globally locked because he has been active on Commons and on Wikidata. EdJohnston (talk) 18:04, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
First substantive action was to create Draft:Y Mall, Thriprayar, which was previously created in mainspace by a previously confirmed sock.
Userpage statement of I am new to wikipedia, but also i am well experienced editor in wikipedia
, and apparent gaming behaviour in user sandbox sets general sock alarm bells ringing. Lastly, the username containing a number with decimal point lines up with prior socks (e.g. Bot clean up 1.02).
Unsure whether CheckUser is warranted/helpful here, will leave that to someone more familiar with the case. firefly ( t · c ) 13:46, 6 November 2021 (UTC)

The sockpuppet accounts create the article Y Mall again and again by creating new accounts. The user User:0"cleopatra"0 created the article first. After his account was blocked for multiple accounts. he came up with a new one User:Mallu editz 1.0 and created another draft on Y Mall (first contribution). That user too got confirmed and blocked. Now coming with a new account created same Y Mall. Confirmed sockpuppet of User:0"cleopatra"0. See the previous SPI investigation Onmyway22 talk 08:15, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

IB is clearly a sock given their rapid fire editing that obviously is not that of a new editor. Particularly their crossover with Xavier 500.30.10. See IB's userpage indicating he is a resident of Kerala and the male WP editor userbox, and Xavier's userpage which has the same two userboxes.
Then, we have IB recreating Mallu Traveler and Draft:Mallu Traveler, which were previously created by the same sock account (Xavier). PICKLEDICAE🥒 01:53, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
