This is a complicated case, but I am beginning to think that Losthistory9 and Problematics are the sockpuppets of Towns Hill, and Owais Khursheed is their meatpuppet. Kautilya3 (talk) 21:11, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
Circumstantial evidence: Towns Hill was indefinitely topic banned from the entire ARBIPA topic area on 18 January 2017. His last edit was on 27 March 2017. Roughly two days later Losthistory9 was created and became active in the Kashmir history topic area, a favourite of Towns Hill's.
Duck evidence: The very first edit of Losthistory9 is over 4,000 bytes. Then he quickly got to work on Kashmiris, a major contribution of TownsHill (188 edits, now followed by 106 edits of Losthistory9 ), extending and amending the previous work. Notice the sophistication of this edit sumary taking away primary sources content and putting similar content from secondary source instead
. This is one week into the career of Losthistory9. Also, this massive edit, converting ref-citations into Sfn and Efn-ua footnotes. Three weeks into his career, this fully formed article on Muslim political movements under Dogra rule magically appears in his sandobox and gets installed minutes later. Excellent scholarly sources that Towns Hill is well-versed with are used here: Christopher Snedden, Sumantra Bose, Mridu Rai, Rekha Chowdhary, Ayesha Jalal etc. (In fact, Towns Hill is the only editor, other than me, that has studied all these sources.)
The complicated case: While all this is going on, yet another whiz kid appears, Problematics, to take control of the Rape in the Kashmir conflict article. Within 3 days of his appearance, he can make claims like this article is specifically for covering war rape in the present post-1989 conflict in Kashmir Valley. Please add your material to ... (ownereship) and This article's lead and background specifies the context as the insurgency in Kashmir since 1989/90. The scholarly sources .. particularly discuss rape in Kashmir conflict in the context of the insurgency... (intricate knowledge of the article's construction). The ostensible author of this article, Owais Khursheed is nowhere to be seen, but Problematics is in total control (5 edits by Owais Khurseed, 79 edits by Problematics ). The same lop-sided contributions are seen on the talk page (8 edits by Owais Khurseed, 135 edits by Problematics ).
The mystery: Who authored Rape in the Kashmir conflict? This article, like the Muslim political movements earlier, magically appears highly polished , with citations to scholarly books and journal articles as well as a "Further reading" list. Is Owais Khursheed, who installed this article, its real author? Looking at Khursheed's edit history, we find him struggling to make Srinagar bypoll election killings 2017 around 19 April, where he can't even write full citations for newspaper articles. He normally does mobile web edits. His new articles look like this. There is nothing in Khursheed's edit history that is of this quality. It is more likely that Problematics wrote Rape in the Kashmir conflict and gave it to him to install. Then Problematics had to come in himself in order to defend it and improve it.
Losthistory9 as well as Problematics both create good articles offline and install them. Both of them are focused on Kashmir. Losthistory9 is a purpose-made account to deal with history. Problematics is purpose-made account to deal with violence/human rights issues. Towns Hill has contributed to both: Kashmiris (48.6%), Kashmir (8.7%), Kashmiri Muslims (51.8%) in history, and 1971 Bangladesh genocide (6.3%), Wartime sexual violence (12.0%), Rape during the Bangladesh Liberation War (21 edits) for sexual violence. He also engaged in extensive discussion on their talk pages, much of which was highly contentious leading to all kinds of disputes, eventually resulting in his topic ban. So, now, we get this. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 21:12, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
