On a wiki that I'm an admin on, sockpuppetry has been a problem in recent weeks.

A user was blocked in February for doing something (the founder of the wiki blocked him - I don't know the reason). However, in recent weeks, the user has created 5 more accounts to try evade his block. Once the second account was blocked, a third account was created. This cycle is still continuing, and a new account is being created quite often. I know it is the same person because the usernames are almost identical.

Local IP blocks do not seem to stop this user, so is there another way to stop this sockpuppetry?

Thanks!
