Evidence submitted by Snigbrook
was blocked indefinitely for creating inappropriate articles. A new user, has now appeared, has been blocked temporarily for spam/advertising (the user's talk page has several speedy deletion warnings) and has now created Anthony Kershaw (famous musician); the pages created by Chamantha10 included Anthony Kershaw the Flute Player. Also both have edited the same article. The second IP address also added a hoax template to an article the users edited, and is in the same range as IP address in the autoblock template on User talk:Chamantha10.

ErwinKnopfler and JaimeKnopfler are clearly alternative accounts, although it's unclear whether they are related to the other accounts and IP addresses (there are some similarities, but also some differences, and it may be another user who noticed the articles because of the hoax templates or category). However, their edits have been disruptive, including creating user pages copied from other users; ErwinKnopfler has added hoax templates (similar to Dragonox488), used misleading edit summaries and edited the same article as Dragonox488 (both appear to have claimed that the article is a hoax). snigbrook (talk) 17:35, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

Self-endorsing for CheckUser attention. While I'm sure the two Knopflers are the same, I'm not sure as to the rest. In addition, I strongly suspect the following to also be a sock of the above ( and are exactly the same recreations):

I'm also rather suspicious after trawling through the deleted contribs, as many of these users are strangely interested in pages either tagged for deletion or has been already deleted. –MuZemike 19:07, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Also another suspected sock:
