Originally reported Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/KaranSharma0445/Archive#28_May_2021_3, but closed due to lack of information from reporter. Roshnikaur123 stopped editing after the report, but started up today. Several of their edits today [1] and [2] are returning information I removed as being added by the prior KS sock. The last one in particular is telling - it's just pure fancruft that KS loves to add to Bigg Boss articles. Ravensfire (talk) 20:46, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Sock removed a comment here [3] from another user. Probably will be reverting edits as a WP:DUCK soon to limit the disruption. Ravensfire (talk) 19:45, 2 August 2021 (UTC)

Adding 82.47.210.111 IP - recent edits have all been to articles that Roshnikaur123 has edited. Ravensfire (talk) 19:18, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

I am not a sock puppet. Please let me edit it. I am not doing anything wrong. I won't add fancruft things. Please let me edit Wikipedia.

• Edited the userpage of SahibCollege55 (talk · contribs) here – another blocked sock. 2405:201:4013:801A:ED21:CDB0:13E0:669A (talk) 21:41, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

• Karnsharma is not the master actually. He has been editing Wikipedia since 2014. Nobody caught him before but all older accounts with username sahib are of him [4]. Princepratap1234 (talk) 15:00, 2 August 2021 (UTC)

  Princepratap1234, can't say I'm surprised by that. Ravensfire (talk) 16:54, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

  @Princepratap1234 can you clarify what you mean? What specific account(s) are you talking about, and what evidence is there that they're socks? -- RoySmith (talk) 20:23, 25 August 2021 (UTC)

  @RoySmith:, I believe they are talking about Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Imtitanium/Archive, where a lot of the accounts start with/have Sahib in the user name. Here [5] Roshnikaur123 removed a sock template from one of those Sahib accounts. The contributions of the last account in that archive show them adding reality show templates Special:Contributions/SahibCollege55, something that KS socks have done quite frequently. I'm so used to saying KS socks, that even if you merged them, I'd still call 'em KS socks! Ravensfire (talk) 21:17, 25 August 2021 (UTC)

  @RoySmith:,The oldest account of him should be User:Sahib0921, same username pattern and editing only Indian Tv shows. He mentioned on his user page that his name is sahib.[6] Princepratap1234 (talk) 05:55, 26 August 2021 (UTC)

User:Ravensfire User:Hellknowz I am sock ks so please block me. User:RoySmith I will never come back here again. I am the Person so please block.
