- I think the overlap in Vairichettipalayam, Sendamangalam and other articles is enough for blocking. PhilKnight Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 17:38, 13 July 2025 (UTC)
- There is only one editor who is consistently trying to spell Sendamangalam as Senthamangalam. It can be seen in the page histories of Senthamangalam, Sendamangalam, Senthamangalam (Namakkal district) and Talk:Sendamangalam. Diff v Diff v Diff v Diff. There is also another account with a similar name to the previous socks, User:Knbalakumar2526, which appears to be inactive now. Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 07:55, 24 July 2025 (UTC)

edit- I used checkuser, but didn't find anything. I later realized the master and socks are Stale. PhilKnight (talk) 14:35, 13 July 2025 (UTC)
- Reopening. Jeraxmoira, if you can provide comparison diffs of what you mean, that would save a clerk from having to dig around for them. asilvering (talk) 07:24, 24 July 2025 (UTC)
