I thought they were two students with a shared obsession on Mount Star Secondary School (also Mount Star secondary School) until Jerry added Rehan's vanity links at  and  when Rehan had been blocked. Bazj (talk) 09:19, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

 * The two accounts are ✅. Blocked and tagged. I saw no reason not to block the master indefinitely as he is obviously only here for disruption and self-promotion. Closing.--Bbb23 (talk) 17:56, 26 July 2015 (UTC)

 * Duck blocked. Sock names are not very creative, so I suspect there are no sleepers (I checked for the next sequential user name).  Defer to CU regarding the block of the underlying IP. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:03, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

WP:DUCK - pattern is to create usernames that start with "Rehan Khan", upload pictures to the Commons similar to previously-uploaded pictures (commons:Special:Log/Rehan_Khan2050 shows he uploaded several files whose name started with "Rehan" and "Rehan Khan", commons:Special:Log/Rehan_Khan153 shows the two files with similar names), and edit similar articles (Mount Star Secondary School, by Rehan_Khan2050 and by Rehan Khan153), and add similar external links (Facebook/Twitter/etc. links with the name Rehan Khan in them - the diffs above share this link) or similar image-links (edit filter log showing creation of new article by Rehan Khan2050 that included a Commons image he uploaded (page and image have both been deleted), edit filter log showing attempt to insert image Rehan Kahn153 recently uploaded to the Commons (edit was apparently not saved/it is not in the page's edit history)). Note that the commons:User:Rehan Khan2050 and some but not all of the socks that are block on the English Wikipedia are also blocked on the Commons. Consider coordinating with the Commons and possibly other Wikis to block all known socks across all Foundation Wikis. Consider adding a filter or using some other means to the new-account-creation tool so newly-created accounts named "Rehan Khan" can be logged in a place that will get administrator attention quickly. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)  19:47, 29 November 2015 (UTC) Update Cross-linking similar request on the Commons that I made a few minutes ago. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)  20:07, 29 November 2015 (UTC) Update2 Account is now blocked on the Commons as a sock and the files he uploaded have been deleted. davidwr/ (talk)/(contribs)  18:26, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
