I'm sure these are part of some paid sockfarm or other. Farmaiop has a history of creating promotional drafts and moving them to mainspace, where they get deleted either as speedy G11s or in AfD as non-notable topics. See Special:Log/Farmaiop.They have not responded to any questions about paid editing.
I know this is not the place to report UPE editors, so that's just some background, and this report is based on some extremely blatant socking today: three non-notable awards, added to a promotional draft by Farmaiop as part of these edits, were removed by me and then restored by Symonds Gerother, who has no other edits at en.wiki. All within the span of a few hours. bonadea contributions talk 20:13, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
