Pretty blatant sockpuppeting to generate support for a proposal by the sockmaster. Quibano starts move proposals for Yue Chinese and Wu Chinese without any policy-based arguments; other editors accordingly voice their opposition. A few hours later Chakanamo is created and immediately makes two edits in support of each move proposal. Notably, both Quibano and Chakanamo make the same grammatical errors in English, such as improper capitalisation (e.g. capitalising "language" when talking about the "Yue Language" and "Wu Language") and improper spacing between punctuation. They also make arguments in the same manner, providing bare URLs of Wikipedia articles and overusing transitional phrases. Yue🌙 06:00, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
