*Close without blocks for the two current named accounts -- CU results and flimsy evidence (at best) can't really lead to any other conclusion. As for Zmaghndstakun's logged-out editing, I'm not sure what, if anything, should be done, but the account hasn't edited in a few days, some of his subject articles have been SPP'ed, and I don't see any outrageous attempts at swaying consensus unduly by pretending to be multiple people, so for now, I suppose we can let it be. <span style="font-family:Sylfaen;color:white;background:black;padding:0 3px;"><big>☺</big>&nbsp;·&nbsp;]&nbsp;·&nbsp;]</span> 01:35, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

Suspected sockpuppets

User:Zmaghndstakun suddenly comes in scenario of Balochistan, Pakistan and supports views of TripWire. His first edit of life is directly on talk page of said page which is very unusual for brand new user. , his second edit of life is in edit warring probably to avoid 3RR , his third edit of life is in voting on talk page to influence the outcome. Surely this id is sock of one of other involved editor, no one starts editing career like this way.

Old blocked User:Highstakes00 also had same nationalist attitude like TripWire who used to edit same pages. Human3015 Call me maybe!! • 18:33, 25 June 2015 (UTC)

I have no idea if these are sockpuppets of User:TripWire. The timing and the nature of edits does give one pause. Regardles, the User:TripWire account has been engaged in EXTREMELY tendentious POV-pushing on articles related to India/Pakistan/Bangladesh. In a very WP:BATTLEGROUND-no-discussion-or-compromise kind of way. They are essentially impossible to discuss or work with. They recently changed their username (legitimately) from "PakSol" to "TripWire" after it became obvious that a user essentially named "PakistaniSoldier" is probably not going to follow NPOV on Pakistan/Bangladesh/India related articles.

Ok. That just means that this is a problem user, not that they're sockpuppeting. However, in my experience, users with such a battleground mentality very often resort to sockpuppeting in order to fight their wars. On its own it'd be... just another disruptive user. But the similarities at Balochistan, Pakistan suggest that there's more going on here.Volunteer Marek (talk) 01:25, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

I have nothing to say, because I am clean. I am not afraid and I am not worried at all. I should not be saying this, because it may sound rude, but I challenge everyone if they can prove that I have a sock, because I dont. Seriously, I am already committed at so many talk pages and is over burdened by the edits I have made there that it is humanly impossible for me to make edits through socks. This accusation by Mr Human is just an evidence that he and his pals are unable to counter my arguments with logic and have thus resorted to dirty tactics and have reported me in Bad Faith.
