Evidence submitted by PleaseStand
First, note that David1588 is currently blocked as a sockpuppet on Commons. The evidence I have uncovered is below.

Right around the time Jumamuba was blocked for 48 hours (and now is blocked for two weeks, check block log) for repeatedly reposting copyrighted photographs to the article Bogotá, I saw David1588 start editing that same article, undoing work to remove those violations. The first edit on the new account was to. Compare with, and note that both users like to change the skyline picture to different filenames of Jumamuba's pictures, rather than free equivalents. This applies to other pictures uploaded by Jumamuba as well when David1588. As to why he made those changes, I asked on his talk page and he, leaving only the welcome template. It is possible that it is an attempt to give the impression that he is a new user.

Check the history of the article. From there it is obvious that that the two accounts share a common editing pattern: making many small edits individually, rather than combining them into one large edit. PleaseStand (talk) 00:09, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

Both accounts have edited the Spanish Wikipedia also, according to the Toolserver:. PleaseStand (talk) 00:14, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

Evidence submitted by PleaseStand
uploaded three pictures on Commons and then added them to article Bogotá. Just like Jumamuba, David1588, and Mark2220. The "source" of his uploads is skyscrapercity.com, a forum that Jumamuba has copied his pictures from (see for link to evidence). And, according to SUL he has visited the Spanish Wikipedia while logged in, just like Jumamuba and David1588 (although has not made any edits there yet).

Evidence submitted by Diannaa
This user is likely another sock of Junamuba as two of his photos added to Bogotá have already been removed for copyright violations. The name is very similar too. Diannaa TALK 01:56, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
