Hi ], I'm not an expert on Zero sharp and do not remember him as an editor. This is definitely a weakness versus the other banned editors for whom I found sockpuppets over the years (notably Haham Hanuka and Wikixx), who I remember well as editors. Nevertheless, last time when I saw an out-of-the-blue meritless nomination for the Israeli subject domain I thought that this might be a sockpuppet and it was identified by others as Zero sharp's (see the archive of this page). Here we have a similar nomination by a new user who came around shortly after Zero's previous sockpuppets were blocked. In the history I see again a deep interest in yoga, erasing of vandalism notices, and cursing, so I thought I'd notify again for professional consideration. The is the stronger case. I have stricken through the weaker case that showed fewer similarities. In any case, this is not a crusade against anyone and there are no objectives other than to keep WP a safe and fair place for everyone. Best, ] (]) 02:02, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
