Users at Supplementary mathematics series (CU needed?)
I recently noticed that a new user has activity overlaps with Special:Contributions/Germany_Poul_Ah (GPA, already blocked) and Special:Contributions/Germany_paul_whq2 (GPW, already blocked/locked). Actually, I think GPA and GPW are the same user, due to their activity overlaps at this project (editing similar pages, similar issues) and global activity overlap (especially fawiki and fawikibooks etc.). The new user I found has made account via fawiki and made Supplementary mathematics/Prism as their first edit in mainspace. There could be many editors in this area, but actually only few (especially the users I mentioned at here) have joined these series. I also found that many of the major contributors of this series come from fawiki (Special:Contributions/FDVDBFNDBSW2552, Special:Contributions/Mohammad.Hosein.J.Shia). Could these be different users from same area, or should we have investigations started? MathXplore (discuss • contribs) 09:14, 15 October 2023 (UTC)

 * The behavioural evidence is fairly strong. The initial checks I made a couple of days ago showed no technical overlap, but further investigation makes it probable they are sock or meatpuppets. Accounts blocked accordingly. MarcGarver (discuss • contribs) 10:07, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
