What's this?? I don't get it, why have you mentioned me.— Preceding unsigned comment added by R2dra (talk • contribs)

If this isn't a sockpuppetry, it would definitely be a meatpuppetry. How would a newly created user like User:BasedMaratha has the knowledge about reverting to a definite version, and editing about draft articles? Both User:BasedMaratha and User:R2dra are pushing POV for Rajput history, and when I made some edits and moves, they found that offensive and called me a Pro-Islamist. I don't even understand what "Pro-Islamic" move I made. Surely not an appropriate mindset for dealing with India-Pakistan contentious topic areas. Some of the articles I found both editing are
1. [6]:-R2dra gets a temporary block for edit warring, so BasedMaratha, a newly created account, making edits in favour of him [7]
2. Same here [8] R2dra gets banned, BasedMaratha editing for him [9]
3. Same story here [10], R2dra's blocked phase, BasedMaratha editing in favour of him [11]
4. Same again [12] and [13]
5. Again the same thing [14] and [15]
And per the nominator, can't unsee this as either a sockpuppetry or meatpuppetry. Adding a point that I wonder why none of the users who warned R2dra went for a AIV seeing all the disruptive editings they made. Once I took that to AIV, but a bot removed my report, I didn't follow that up.Imperial^[AFCND] 14:46, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
