- Pransjith2013 was created three days after Chellakathiran2010 was blocked. Aruna2015 was created two days after Pransjith2013 was blocked as a suspected sock of this master. Ranjana2018 was created 5 days after Aruna2015 stopped editing. Maithil2021 was created hours after Ranjana2018 stopped editing. I believe that one stopping to edit with another account is an attempt to avoid getting caught and their edits reverted.

[edit]Gboard2022 was created 12 days after the last set of socks were blocked on June 7. Gboard2022 was blocked by admin Bbb23 as a suspected sock and 8 days later Inshot2022 was created.
- Both the accounts are created with year in their usernames similar to past socks, Dharana2013, Chellakathiran2010, Mahadeesh2010, Pransjith2013, Aruna2015, Ranjana2018, Maithil2021
- Both the accounts edited V. K. Sasikala like all the past socks.[36][37]. Note: "ammarist" in the username of the sockmaster is a fan name of V. K. Sasikala. Similarily, both this accounts edited T. T. V. Dhinakaran(a nephew of Sasikala), like all the past socks.[38][39]
- Inshot2022 resumed editing in the same section added by past socks.[40][41][42]. Inshot2022 updated the content in the infobox added earlier by a past sock.[43][44]. Inshot2022 resumed the editing of Gboard2022 in Dindigul C. Srinivasan.[45][46]. Gboard2022 restored the edit of a past sock.[47][48]
- Both updated infoboxes on the articles previously updated by the past socks: Edappadi K. Palaniswami[49][50], T. R. Baalu[51][52], P. Ramamurthi[53][54], V. K. Sasikala[55][56], V. R. Nedunchezhiyan[57][58]
- Both the accounts made unsourced additions on dozens of other language wikis; see Global contributions:[59][60] This is also a habit of the last set of socks.[61][62][63][64] - SUN EYE 1 17:07, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]Same naming as previous sockpuppets, with a year at the end of a username. Recreated List of deputy chief ministers of Assam and List of deputy chief ministers of Mizoram after they were deleted under G5 a couple weeks ago. Account was created a few days after the last sockpuppet was blocked. Has "mobile web edit" on their edits and doesn't use edit summaries, like previous sock Pixellab2022. — Ingenuity (talk • contribs) 13:03, 14 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]User:Akshay2022 was blocked on 5 November 2022, after creating things like List of deputy chief ministers of Sikkim. On 11 November, brand new account Akilan2022 (see name similarity, and created 6 November, day after block of previous account) comes along and recreates that page. Their interaction timeline shows lot of other common articles. Also common interests with other socks, e.g. with User:Chellakathiran2010 on Deepa Jayakumar and other pages, or with User:Inshot2022 on T. T. V. Dhinakaran and elsewhere. I wonder if the Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Dineshs01102000 isn't the same person as well, another bunch of socks on many identical pages? Fram (talk) 09:44, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Confirmed. They're moving around a wide, busy range, which isn't great territory for sock hunting, but I see the following:
- All Technically indistinguishable to one another, and to confirmed socks. There is another account on the range that looks very similar, but I think that's somebody else - their editing is infrequent, in very different subject areas, and looks pretty innoccuous - I'm going to leave them alone, but as ever, come back if another account starts doing similar stuff. Will block this lot and request locks. Girth Summit (blether) 12:32, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Firefly, sorry to come in here at the last minute but Singhal.sasthry just requested the recreation of a page a Snthilakammarist sockpuppet created on an Indian political group that was just deleted last week. I was wondering if they were associated with this group. They have been around since the summer so if a checkuser was run, they probably would have popped up before now. But typically when one account tries to recreate a page deleted due to CSD G5, they are also a sockpuppet. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 04:50, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]Requesting checkuser as I do not feel the connection is quite clear enough. I am now confident in the connection.
- First edit was to set a size on an image, not something a new user is likely to know how to do. [412]
- Editing articles on Indian legislative assemblies, same as the previous sock. [413][414][415] (Look at 2023Panjagam's deleted contributions to articles that have "legislative assembly" at the end.)
- Created 4 days after the last sock was blocked.
- Used "sir", which previous socks do occasionally. [416] [417]
- Has indicated they are interested in Indian politics, something previous socks are obviously also interested in (glance at the titles on the contributions page of any of them). [418]

(Responding to CU result) hmmm. In that case I don't feel confident anymore. Maybe the best course of action is to wait for the account to edit more. But I'm not experienced with this. Snowmanonahoe (talk) 22:04, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
