I don't know... but in my terms, a "sockpuppet" account is a alternate account created by someone who his/her accounts were blocked. Creating "sockpuppets" is a method of "block evasion" or "block avoidance".

I (and some admins including Railwayseries2) want people who are blocked for a month (e.g. for not following the Image Gallery rules) or forever (e.g. being disrespectful, disobey the Wiki rules, and/or bullying an admin) to stay away from this Wiki until their block expires, not create sockpuppets/alternate account in order to edit the Wiki while his/her other account is blocked (block evasion/avoidance). It defeats the purpose of blocking someone!!
