Same areas of interest like the master specifically Chennai International Airport and Coimbatore International Airport. User does nothing but add unsourced content or false information on the destinations. This is the very reason the master was blocked for 12 hours and the sock account seems to be created just a few hours after the master was blocked and moved the very same articles where the master loves editing. — LeoFrank ^Talk 12:21, 29 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

An obvious sock by the name which is similar to the master and the previous sock and also the fact that the editing pattern is the same. I request the CU to run a sleeper check. — LeoFrank ^Talk 14:34, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Another one already. Please see if a sleeper check is warranted now. — LeoFrank ^Talk 17:36, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Also an an IP here with a beautiful ES. A range block or sleeper check should be evaluated upon. — LeoFrank ^Talk 17:39, 1 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Please block the sock. Thanks, GAB^gab 00:17, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  - Blocked and tagged. IP editor is already blocked. Unfortunately, I don't think a range block is possible. From what I can see, this sock only edits airports, and there's a decent amount of traffic that doesn't involve airports. Semi-protection would probably be a better solution. I'll keep an eye on the range, though. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 10:11, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The user has been vandalizing Indian airport articles since 27 April 2017. Case 1: Repeatedly removing direct flight destinations in a malicious manner from Kempegowda International Airport. The master and his two sock puppets sometimes also insert falsifying POV comments while removing destinations. Diffs:

There is a perfect time order in the edits of these four users (one master, two sock puppets and one IP). The manner in which the next user starts editing immediately after the previous one is blocked also strongly consolidates the fact of them being sock puppets. Case 2: Repeatedly added imaginary/ non-existent destinations (neither served by direct nor non-stop flights) in article Chennai International Airport. Diffs:

diff between revision 777659287 of Blessthuseditor and previous revision of mine
diff between revision 777659287 of Blessthuseditor and latest revision
diff between revision 778259816 of Hihihihjmü and latest revision
[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Chennai_International_Airport&diff=cur&oldid=778851167 diff between revision 778851167 of Hihihihjmü and latest revision

There may be differences in some of the destinations these two users added but ultimately both tried desperately to falsely "glorify" Chennai Airport in terms of destinations ! Vibhss (talk) 18:33, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Adding non-existent destinations (served by neither direct nor non-stop flights) in the same pattern in article Chennai International Airport, one of the hobby horses of the sock master as it can be seen from this diff. Now that Kempegowda International Airport article has been semi-protected, this user has also started disrupting Rajiv Gandhi International Airport like the latest blocked sock User:Beaproper567801242.

@Amdmustafa:, in the future please provide diffs if possible, rather than expecting a CU to search for them. (I understand that many of Itskumudhk's edits have been revdelled). L Faraone 19:19, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I dont know if it is too early to suspect this user as sockpuppet. Let Mods take the call. His recent edits this and this are kinda promotions. These are the similar to another sockpuppet Nprasanna, Tsqwerty and TPJTRZ who's master is Itskumudhk. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Also I would like to know that if I revert this kinda promotion edits repeatedly, will it come under 3RR rule?
