Recreation of Jaan Nissar Lone. It was previously created by someone in this sockfarm and then by TavadiaP. After the AfC was declined multiple times TavadiaP requested G7 at Draft:Jaan Nissar Lone and then Aamirsaahil recreated it under Jaan nissar lone.

Thank you for clarifying Bbb23. Actually, I added user "Jaan Nissar Lone" after realising that user Aamirsaahil was registered the same day you performed the CU at KM SPI, but I wasn't sure whether Aamirsaahil was registered before or after the check was completed so, I apologise if I missed something. GSS (talk|c|em) 06:13, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Update: User Jaan Nisar Lone recreated Draft:Rani Hazarika which was earlier created by Aamirsaahil and the draft was deleted on author's request same as Draft:Jaan Nissar Lone which TavadiaP requested for deletion and Aamirsaahil recreated. Smells like meatpuppetry? GSS (talk|c|em) 14:11, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- @Bbb23: since they are not technically connected but behaviorally they seem to have an off-wiki connection especially when it comes to recreating each-other deleted articles so is it possible to reopen the case? Thank you. GSS (talk|c|em) 14:32, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

If I had found TavadiaP and Jaan Nissar Lone to be related to Farooqahmadbhat at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Kashmiri musician, I would have said so. This is not a criticism of GSS as I can easily understand how confusing all this is. Aamirsaahil, otoh, is Confirmed, blocked and tagged. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:22, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@GSS: I'm not comfortable making a finding of meat puppetry.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:35, 15 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The suspected sock was registered yesterday and recreated their deleted page Draft:Jaan Nissar Lone with almost the same material. GSS (talk|c|em) 15:04, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Bbb23: as CU confirmed it's JNL, but per this edit on their userpage, it doesn't sound like a good faith return. GSS (talk|c|em) 05:37, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unrelated. Jenifer Intiha is Confirmed to Jaan Nissar Lone (talk · contribs · count). Jaan Nissar Lone was soft-blocked. In the confusing back-and-forth between this case and Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Kashmiri musician, I don't believe I've found any other user to be operated by Jaan Nissar Lone. If that's correct, Jenifer Intiha is not a sock. I will leave this case in checked status, as opposed to closing it with no action, in case someone tells me I'm wrong.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:41, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Clerk note: @Bbb23: Did you check Jaan Nissar Lone against Manzoorrrrrrr and SoundlessTears? If not, I think you should. Vanjagenije (talk) 10:44, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanjagenije: Yes (see the Kashmiri musician archive). JNL is unrelated to anyone except Jenifer Intiha.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:57, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Given the close geolocations between JNL/Jenifer Intiha and previous Farooqahmadbhat socks, and taking into account the almost word-for-word recreation of (confirmed Farooqahmadbhat sock) Aamirsaahil's content by Jenifer Intiha, I'm happy enough to make the assessment that these accounts are sockpuppets, and have blocked both.

Recreation of Draft:Jaan Nissar Lone - the one revision already had a fully formatted infobox, suggesting it was pasted in, and the user's fifth edit ever was to WP:Refund, suggesting that the user is familiar with wikipedia. CheckUser requested to discover any sleepers. DannyS712 (talk) 21:05, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

An Italian mechanical engineer with German in their username where Jenifer Intiha (previous sock) completed her MBBS is interested in a topic related to India? Nah.. CU better know their location. GSS (talk|c|em) 04:08, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Unlikely to anyone. I should add that the technical findings in this case have become increasingly unhelpful, as has whether there is one or more masters.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:31, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Obvious duck. The suspected sock was registered yesterday before and editing in the same area. Requested undeletion of Jaan Nissar Lone and recreated Draft:Rani Hazarika. GSS (talk|c|em) 14:58, 13 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
