Suspected sockpuppets

Article in question is Chhota Bheem. Suspected master made this edit to it, complaining about the article and the show. They were CU-blocked in December 2015 by Materialscientist for similar shenanigans with other socks; there are lots of examples, but here is a random sample to get the idea of the pattern of disruptive editing and POV-pushing: [1][2][3][4][5].

Compare to these edits, which have all the hallmarks of someone who hates the show for alleged commercialization and poor quality. I think the case is fairly cut-and-dried. GABHello! 20:48, 24 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Still complaining about Chhotta Bheem, criticizing it as poor quality, a flop, artistically bad, etc., just like the last socks: [6]. Requesting CU to confirm this and look for sleepers. GABHello! 19:46, 19 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Just found more suspected socks. See these edits: [7][8]. Here are some edits of past socks to compare: [9][10][11]. GABHello! 19:52, 19 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected sockpuppets

The same disgruntled culture critic complaining about Chhota Bheem on Rajiv Chilaka (the show's creator), just like the last socks: [15][16]. Pinging Ponyo, who is familiar with this case. GABHello! 19:36, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have added Colonelization to the list, who is doing the same thing today. Deli nk (talk) 13:36, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Vanjagenije: Here are the edits of the most recent socks: [17][18][19][20]. Thanks, GABHello! 20:04, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  •  Additional information needed - @GeneralizationsAreBad and Deli nk: In order to facilitate and expedite your request, please provide diffs to support your case. Please give two or more diffs meeting the following format:
  1. At least one diff is from the sockmaster (or an account already blocked as a confirmed sockpuppet of the sockmaster), showing the behaviour characteristic of the sockmaster.
  2. At least one diff per suspected sockpuppet, showing the suspected sockpuppet emulating the behaviour of the sockmaster given in the first diff.
  3. In situations where it is not immediately obvious from the diffs what the characteristic behaviour is, a short explanation must be provided. Around one sentence is enough for this. Vanjagenije (talk) 19:23, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected sockpuppets

I noticed a lot of worrying sockpuppetry in the revision history of Chhota Bheem. I think there might be more than one group of socks currently active (for example, Special:Contributions/Mizilshah and Special:Contributions/NozzelShah appear to be the same), but more noticeably it seems User:Saleemsinghbhaikhan has returned. These SPA have all been complaining about Chhota Bheem, claiming it's inappropriate for kids and relating it to Bollywood ([21] [22] [23]), restoring each other's edits ([24] [25]), and calling it a flop, much like socks in the past did ([26] [27]).

  • CheckUser for the master is stale. However, we have three groups here that are  Confirmed to each other, and each group is  Technically indistinguishable from the others.
  • Group 1:

Group 2:

Group 3:

More griping about Chhota Bheem on Rajiv Chilaka, just like the previous socks: [28][29]. Requesting CU to confirm and look for sleepers. Thanks, GABgab 22:17, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
