Has recreated at least two articles previously created and deleted under new names: N.V.S. Reddy under Nallamilli Venkat Satyanarayan Reddy and Indica (Pranay Lal) under Indica : A Deep Natural History of the Indian Subcontinent. Pretty clear case of WP:DUCK, especially how closely together both of the articles were created time-wise. The main reason why I have requested CU is to find and root out any sleeper accounts.

Sleeper sock created last year and activated after the last SPI.
