A barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar

Thank you for making improving R.K. Mathur and therefore saving it from deletion. I was inactive on wiki during that period of time so missed the whole episode. Anyway, I have made considerable improvements to the article, let me know your opinion about it. PS: If you know any articles related to government/bureaucracy, do let me know, I'd be more than happy to do research about it. Regards, SshibumXZ (Talk) (Contributions). 18:09, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Query

Since you're recently active, what's our SOP as to User talk:Baltimorecrab?Regards:)Winged Blades^Godric 10:10, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

That's an obvious sock and I'd be inclined to block as such, however it's possible that the account is not related to the sock group but is trolling Anna and is just a bad hand account of someone who is active otherwise. Given that I'm not active as much as maybe needed (to respond in a timely manner -- that isn't needed for the other blocks I do now) if I do block, I'll hold off on blocking but I think some other admin who is active will likely block. cheers. —SpacemanSpiff 10:15, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

@Winged Blades of Godric: Meh, I spoke too soon, it looks like there's copyvio restoration going on, and it's obvious that no regular account is going to do that. I've blocked, but you may want to file an SPI if needed, cheers. —SpacemanSpiff 10:20, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

Many thanks:) I landed through NPP and forgot to check the user-contributions.It was an obvious sockpuppet! Winged Blades^Godric 13:12, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

Dulla Bhatti

The Dulla Bhatti article may need some extra eyes for a few days. It looks like there may be a spot of meatpuppeting going on. Part of it is the usual tussle where Gurjars claim people as their own even when sources say they are Rajput - those two groups really do not seem to get along! - Sitush (talk) 11:04, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

Eh?

Was this a misclick? - Sitush (talk) 08:14, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

• ultra slow internet connection, I had no clue I was even on that page, let alone delsort until after it happened. I reverted myself on the England list but I guess not on this. —SpacemanSpiff 09:47, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
