Referral concerning  sock puppet and 1R violation
Hi Tariq. I brought this matter up with Tim Song. He agreed that a block was warranted per  but asked that I refer the matter to another admin to carry out a sanction per his stated (and well-grounded) reason. I am referring the matter over to you since judging by Tim's talk page, you have some level of familiarity with the case and the previous sock puppets. Best
