All of them have the same editing behavior and every account writes about Farhan Rana Rajpoot, a non notabe subject from Pakistan. ~ Mazzaz (talk) 17:52, 2 August 2021 (UTC)

IMO, a CheckUser is not needed here, as the accounts are most likely the same person. The only reason why it could be needed, is to see if they use a VPN/Proxy for further investigation. I heavily suggest that they are blocked from the wiki if they are causing problems/breaking policies. Bukkit (talk) 20:53, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

Clerk, CheckUser, and/or patrolling admin comments

 * I strongly suggest this user be banned from FAMEedia. They are only here for promoting themselves. They have no other reason to stay here. They were told multiple times to improve the existing draft to get your article published but they aren getting off the rope and in hurry, they created the new account, with the view to avoid being caught as User:Farhan Rana Rajpoot Verified, an account which they have been using for a while now and created the article, Farhan Rana Rajpoot Youtuber. ~ Mazzaz (talk) 18:06, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Speaking as a local  here, I strongly disagree with having this FAMEPedia:Sockpuppet investigations case page and related subpages, as it seems like you're trying to mimic Wikipedia here. With no locally appointed CheckUsers, this is also moot, as Stewards will consider whether a CheckUser is required in accordance with global policies together with common sense. In this case, I don't feel that the original block was justified. Thus, any editing with the user's stated alternate accounts is not valid, and urge the block to be undone.

 * , sorry for my late response, I didn't noticed your reply till now.
 * I agree with you and I have also been concerned about it since I joined. I had introduced an RFC to delete all the pages/policies realted to CU's since what was written in them couldn't happen as there were no locally appointed CU's and using m:Stewards noticeboard to report the suspected socks. I wanted to create our own policies and guidelines and define the scope of FAMEPedia. ~ Mazzaz (talk) 08:18, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
 * My reply to this; having a FP:SPI case page on FAMEPedia isn't a bad idea at all, It will help everyone, both now and in the future, to handle users abusing multiple account. This is solely for the convenient of FAMEPedia Administrators and CheckUser despite there are none currently. Having this case closed as unsuccessful isn't a bad idea after all since your points in respect of this user, are clear. Chimobi (talk) 19:42, 7 August 2021 (UTC)


 * I'm very sure there's no need to perform a checkuser on this user, as it's too obvious that they're the same person, the same English style, the same attitude on articles. Chimobi (talk) 05:23, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
 * for some reasons I still think performing a check on them would be necessary, we'll contact a steward to do that. Chimobi (talk) 05:44, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
 * they have now started to vandalise existing articles. See contributions of Imran khan verify. ~ Mazzaz (talk) 06:26, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
 * And they also kept blanking articles and templates. Well, without a check on these accounts, I am 100% sure that these are from the same person. Chimobi (talk) 07:26, 6 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Ugochimobi Respectfully, I don't feel the original block was justified, and urge it to be reverted, per my earlier comments. The user is clearly operating in good-faith; there just may be a language difficulty here. Dmehus (talk) 18:57, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry to barge in, but isn't Famepedia pretty much a Wikipedia-based wiki itself, even if it's being hosted by Miraheze? :/ DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 19:00, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Please what are you insinuating? Chimobi (talk) 19:37, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I intentionally left this SPI case opened because of you, The listed alternate accounts aren't currently blocked. If it was ever blocked before, I think it was a former global block and a local block which has been undone before now. Chimobi (talk) 19:35, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
