Seriously? STAY OUT.
I'll give you the same advice I've given others who are experts in a very specialized field: create your own website and fill it with rare information not already on Wikipedia. Force them to come to you.

1. use mobile tethering
2. use an agent switcher or just use a different browser
using that advice you could probably avoid most problems, even with CU fishing.
for more elaborate socking, or sock networks, see here for behavioral/persona, but not a lot on sidestepping checkuser. Vigilant gave a very useful list at WPO, including the use of virtual machines and live disks but i cant find it. this post did turn up in search results, but its not the one i was thinking of. maybe they thought better of it and deleted it.

Even better, switch to Justapedia and start anew.

Keep a low profile. That's the only way to survive Wiki. There's no other way.
