Suspected sockpuppets

Crazybots (talk · contribs), Hakunamatatalk (talk · contribs), and Allahthegreat (talk · contribs) all appear to be single-purpose accounts created to !vote keep at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Vaibhav Maloo (2nd nomination) (Diff 1 Diff 2 Diff 3). The suspected sockpuppet master, Kryptonite1234 (talk · contribs), is a user who has been working on the article for some time, and has been very defensive about the article. Kryptonite originally asked about circumventing the AfD process and keeping the article at the Teahouse, located at this discussion. In the AfD, Kryptonite came to the defense of the three suspected sockpuppets and denied any ties within the hour of being called out. Similar grammatical style is used between all suspected user. Checkuser requested to confirm sockpuppet master. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 01:57, 18 May 2014 (UTC)

Facepalm Facepalm That's about as good a piece of behavioral evidence as you'll find. Checkuser should definitely be used to weed out sleepers. —/Mendaliv//Δ's/ 04:08, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
Yes, I asked my friends at the dorm to come to my rescue just like I feel the person against my article did. Won't happen again. I have seen less notable subjects on wikipedia than my subject.Kryptonite1234 (talk) 12:24, 18 May 2014 (UTC)
@Kryptonite1234: Read what Misplaced Pages's rules say about recruiting friends, family members or others to support your case. Also note that deletion discussions are not a majority vote, it's about compliance with Misplaced Pages's rules about notability. So it doesn't matter how many sockpuppets or "friends" you recruit to support you; if the subject of the article is deemed as not being notable, the article will be deleted regardless of how many new single-purpose accounts that have "voted" in the discussion.

Might still be worth running a check to see if there are sleepers. —/Mendaliv//Δ's/ 13:46, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
