Suspected sockpuppets[edit]


  • Article in question: Kamal Hossain
  • Recorder XH (talk · contribs) created 2018-09-24 11:02 (UTC). First creation is a blank user page diff. The editor then appears at the article and makes substantial changes to the infobox here, showing probable wiki experience. Five hours later, the editor requests a copy-edit at the GOCE Requests page here. The following day, s/he creates Draft:National_Unity_Process in the account's user space sandbox. This article involves Kamal Hossain, the subject of the other article. The user's final edit, as of my timestamp, is to revert an IP here.
  • Liberation Gen (talk · contribs) created 2018-10-15 10:21 (UTC). First action is to create a blank user page here, second is and edit to the Hossain article here. Third edit is to create a blank user talk page here. The editor has also made edits to Constitution of Bangladesh here and Constituent Assembly of Bangladesh here, both of which involve Hossain.
  • Summary: It appears these accounts belong to the same person, who seems to have prior Wikipedia editing experience, possibly WP:PAID. I think a checkuser may be in order. Thanks. Baffle gab1978 20:13, 15 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
