The IPs, who had previously been blocked for five days in a previous investigation, are at it again. The first one is adding [5] refernces to Dipanshu Tiwari to Vishwanath Tiwari. The creator of the article, Don shyam, also tried to create Golu Tiwari. Wgolf [6] reported him, but did not open the investigation. The other IP [7] to Vishwanath Tiwari. Don shyam also added [8] which I speedily deleted twice.Alexschmidt711 (talk) 17:24, 13 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims. Don shyam is a sockpuppet of Shalini o Dubey. Not only did he re-add a fake photo of Dipanshu Tiwari (previously added by sockpuppet of Shalini o Duney Dailynewsworld) to Wikimedia Commons, but the article for Vishwanath Tiwari has no sources (probably a hoax), and the photo was captioned with "Own work" (which seems fairly unlikely for a billionaire) like Dipanshu Tiwari's photograph. I tagged the article as a hoax. He also created Golu Tiwari(which probably contained a photo of Dipanshu), which was speedily deleted. Vishwanath is also supposed to be Dipanshu's grandfather. An IP reverted my removal of this reference. I missed four accounts in the 223.176.x.x range that also edited the article. They are: 223.176.191.230 223.176.169.157 223.176.181.212 223.176.165.142 Alexschmidt711 (talk) 16:43, 15 February 2014 (UTC) The current purpose of the sockpuppets seems to be to create a family of Indian billionaires known as the Tiwaris related to the real disgraced politician N.D.Tiwari for as-yet unknown reasons.

WP:DUCK.I've been waiting for the Tiwaris to come back for some time. Swati Umrao recreated Vishwanath Tiwari [9]. I first noticed the first two IPs' new edits [10],[11] a long time ago, but ignored it after it went silent. The other IP added this about Dipanshu Tiwari [12].

information Administrator note I blocked all of the above per WP:DUCK. The account I blocked indefinitely, the three IPs I blocked for a week. (Interestingly enough, the first two IPs were both blocked twice in the past, once each for 5 days, once again each for 3 days). I'm not quite sure how useful it really is to give these IPs short blocks, they'll probably be back in a month or so anyway, but I thought I'd follow precedence here. With all parties blocked, I'm marking this for closure.-- Atama 18:37, 11 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Atama: If you're comfortable that the IP is stable feel free to block for longer periods of time. Callanecc (talkcontribslogs) 04:35, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
