He is feigning innocence - but one look at select articles, user page and way of writing will leave no doubt who it is. Can (should?) we do something? Druid.raul's user page was deleted (on his request), so I'm not sure if the history can be restored.
However, there's too many things in common between Druid.raul and Marcosino (I'll use MPS for convenience). Both:
are Indian
are from Mumbai
are Hindu
are 21 years old
do not smoke
have apparently been editing for a long time though edit history shows otherwise
are short-sighted
are right-handed
are male
are heterosexual
use FireFox
and Facebook
speak English
and Hindi
and Oriya (a minor Indian language)
one decared he won't be editing Arab/Muslim related articles ever again (though he failed to live up to that declaration) and the other has proclaimed he's opposed to Islamism
and so on...
See also the edit histories for
NACIL and
Air India. User Marcosino made the exact same edits/reverts that the previously blocked users and IPs had been making.
It is the third sock of a banned user, and clearly violates most of the established criteria around inappropriate uses of sockpuppetry.

16 Oct: User Marcosino cuntinues to make the same edits/reverts to
NACIL and
Air India as before, despite repeated claims of not having anything to do with past edits.

Why should i not edit the Air India page. It has 9 777-300ERs. Fine go ahead. Have it your way. I wont edit airline articles. I think i should stick only to Automobiles and Automotive Industry —Preceding

That is not required, since behavioral evidence, edit history etc all meet (and pass with flying colours) the "

Thats because i used to edit as IP 11x.xx.xx.xx . i only made an account this month. See stop accusing me of something i havent done. You're forcing me to act which i don't want to. (

For someone who claims to have edited as IP 11x.xx.xx.xx and also claims to specialise in the Indian automobile industry articles, there are remarkably few edits to the related articles by such an IP. Of those few editors with a 11x.xx.xx.xx, none have a geolocate of Mumbai (where user Marcosino is located). Some are in Korea; others in various locations. I am completely confident that we are dealing with a sock of a (banned) sock of a (banned) user.

I previously blocked several IP socks of
User:Druid.raul and consider it very likely that
User:Marcosino Pedros Sancheza is another sock based on the user's edits. However, a CU will be useful, to both confirm this and to locate any other sock accounts that were created.

I have temporarily blocked this user for continued removal of procedural tags having been previously warned and then having said he's retired, has just gone on a redirect spree moving talk pages into article space etc, though has now been all restored. Khukri 19:45, 16 October 2009 (UTC)reply
