• Based on strong behavioral evidence, I have blocked the accounts currently listed in :Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of N R Pavan Kumar. {{noping|N R Pavan Kumar}} seems to be the oldest account, though all it ever did was create {{noping|Pavan Kumar Saarang N R}}.

• {{ping|Yeryry}} Please make sure to nominate this user's creations for speedy deletion as well. I've done that. With that said, it looks like this user was flatly lying when they promised to stop socking at User talk:N R Pavan Kumar.--Jasper Deng (talk) 09:16, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

:{{ping|Jasper Deng}} I have been avoiding doing that, as nominating repeat creations like this before the user is blocked tends to be fairly futile, as they just keep removing the tags or recreating the page, so I've been letting SPI deal with them. And yeah, the old "doing/saying whatever seems like it'll get one what one wants"... Ugh. Yeryry (talk) 10:16, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

IPv6 kept blanking :Pawan Kumar and replacing it with content about the same guy he's been promoting for months. I wouldn't have known it was part of an SPI case, but when I went to suggest he start an article at Draft:Pawan Kumar (film actor) (based on [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pawan_Kumar&diff=832687690&oldid=832603107 this iteration],) that's when I noticed there was a widespread protect on article creation. Anyway, I've blocked the IP for a week. I'm going to extend the page protect of :Pawan Kumar to a month or two. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:55, 27 March 2018 (UTC)
