*For info and the record, I’ve just blocked a new user, {{no ping|Nikhil Kumar Swami}}, as another suspected sock from this drawer. They registered their account and straight away created and submitted to AfC [[Draft:The 50]], after [[The 50]] was deleted yesterday following [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The 50]]. Given that The 50, Draft:The 50 and [[Draft:The 50 (Hindi TV series) season 1]] were all recently created by {{no ping|Terimaakachicken}}, that all looked pretty ducky to me. Happy to be proven wrong, though. –[[User:DoubleGrazing|DoubleGrazing]] ([[User talk:DoubleGrazing|talk]]) 07:58, 25 January 2026 (UTC) |

Suspected sockpuppets
[edit]
Garmagaramsamosa blocked on November 8, 2025 for disruptive editing (adding unsourced content and spam links). They did a lot of editing on Draft:Farhana Bhat prior to their block, the draft was declined four times between September and November. On November 8, 2025 after the block of Garmagaramsamosa, user Grandscrub creates Farhana Bhat in the mainspace which is then moved to Draft:Farhana Bhat 2 by an admin. On November 11, 2025, user Srkhab creates Farrhana Bhatt (note this one is with an extra “T” to avoid scrutiny of previous deletions) in the mainspace. This was 8 days after Garmagaramamosa was blocked and three days after the other page creation was moved to draft, even though Srkhab has done very little editing in 2025. The other accoutns listed in the SPI are new accounts created during September, October, and November who are SPAs focusing mainly on the mainspace page for Farrhana Bhatt or shows she is associated with. I believe that Grandscrub and Garmagaramsamosa are the same person, but not sure if the others are the same person or possible MEAT from UPE. Najeeb Ahmadk may be the same person as they created the original draft. And yes, I know a few of these man be fans and not related, but the actions of at least three who create the mainpages within days of being blocked or being moved to draftspace is too coincidental in my mind (especially given the name variation to avoid scrutiny).
