As far as {{u|Togggle}} is concerned, its also my profile. But thats a non-significant one. It is being used to try edits at sandbox as I don’t want other users to see what I am trying and testing for future. Thats all I had to say {{u|Ivanvector}}. I request admins to be a little soft on me considering I have been editing here for over 10 years and I haven’t abused any of these accounts to mislead Wikipedia by garnering fabricated support despite my heavy involvement in difficult content disputes. –[[User:Yoonadue|Yoonadue]] ([[User talk:Yoonadue|talk]]) 02:43, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets[edit]

This report follows the two preceding reports, with further evidence and a focus on possible signs displayed by Aman.kumar.goel, the IP range editor, Dympies, and CharlesWain. From my view, as discussion continues about contentious content in the Divya Dwivedi article, there seem to be similiar writing/editing styles, including the use and defense of unreliable sources, as well as forms of personalization during various discussions, that raise some concern about use of multiple accounts to create an appearance of excessive support.

Background

• There has been a dispute related to content Dympies and Aman.kumar.goel attempted to add to the Divya Dwivedi article: [1] (Dympies), [2] (Aman.kumar.goel), [3] (Dympies), [4] (Dympies)
• At 14:40, 4 December 2023, after the conclusion of the ANI filed against me by Aman.kumar.goel and Aman.kumar.goel’s block, Dympies included CharlesWain in pings of several editors to discussion at the Divya Dwivedi article talk page [5].
• At 14:57, 4 December 2023, I noted at the article talk page [6] the disputed content was previously discussed at ANI, and referenced my prior comment e.g. it seems particularly important, from a NPOV/BLP perspective, to not create original research/synthesis, e.g. in the example diff above, by taking content from one 2019 news source, that states, inter alia, ‘She said x about Gandhi’, followed by a 2023 source that says ‘she said x about the Hindu Right etc and then faced death threats’, to create article content that says, ‘She said x about Gandhi and then faced death threats.’ No source appears to support this synthesis, and this appears to be very contentious original content to add to a BLP.

Use and defense of unreliable and questionable sources

• Aman.kumar.goel denied usage of an unreliable portion of a source during discussion at BLPN at 19:36, 2 December 2023 [7] (“Nobody used headline for information”), and I replied in a comment at 19:44, 2 December 2023 with diffs [8] showing use by Aman.kumar.goel (in the article) and use by the IP range editor (at BLPN, article talk, and article edit summary).
• CharlesWain – 06:19, 8 December 2023 at Dwivedi article talk [9] proposes the use of an obviously unreliable source and an at best questionable source, as noted in my following comment at 06:44, 8 December 2023 [10]. Dympies then appears to defend the sources offered by CharlesWain at 12:00, 8 December 2023 [11] by referring to my source review as “nitpicking”.

Personalization, sentence structure and word choices

• IP range editor – 13:00, 13 November 2023 [12] / 13:02, 13 November 2023 Dwivedi article talk [13] “…Its from 2019 and has nothing to do with what happened in “September 2023″…”
• CharlesWain – 08:39, 7 December 2023 Dwivedi article talk [14] “2023 controversy is not same as the one from 2019. …”
• CharlesWain – 06:19, 8…
