==History== | ||
| This section is for pages that are the targets of persistent vandalism by multiple users (anonymous and/or logged in). | |||
| The first page used for tracking vandalism was a user subpage, ], some time before 4 November 2001. The vandalism in progress page was established as VANDALISM IN PROGRESS - the title was upper-case to make it easily distinguishable on ]). Around the same time, the Misplaced Pages Militia (since renamed to the ]) was formed to coordinate responses to press releases about Misplaced Pages. The "VANDALISM IN PROGRESS" page was moved to the Misplaced Pages namespace in August 2002 and was renamed to the current title in 2006. Its archives since 2003 may be found in ] and the talk archives since august 2002 can be found in the history of ] and in text form as subpages of ]. Old subpages can also be found through ]. the ] page also grew out of "vandalism in progress". A section on the "vandalism in progress" page for persistent vandalism was added in ], later ], and then re-created as ] in September 2004; in December 2004 it was ] to ], titled ]. | |||

| This page is being repeatedly vandalized by 82.153.109.156, 82.153.103.158, 207.5.192.239 et al. The first two appear to be the same person, since the last revision/blanking said something to the effect "since I was banned I changed my IP address" ] 09:22, 16 August 2005 (UTC) | |||

| This page, pretty much nonsense and other speediable junk has been created four times while I have been watching. Mostly by ips starting with 62.253.128, and two of them I know were .12 and .14, though I missed the others. -] 23:22, 15 August 2005 (UTC) | |||

| I'm not sure if this is really vandalism, or if somebody just wants to engage me in a edit/revert war over the above article. Somebody (or some people; I'm assuming the former) in the IP address range 151.44.*.* keeps adding false accusations against Scott Jarkoff (founder of deviantART) and nonsense to the page; repeated requests on talk page, as well as reminder-comment on top of page and all affected sections have been completely ignored and even mocked at. Request for protection of the above article is already up, person(s) have been warned on the ] (his current IP address). I have already reverted the article three times in a space of 24 hours; three revert rule seems likely to be breached soon unless action is taken. ] 15:22, 15 August 2005 (UTC) | |||

Old instructions for this page
Choose one of three sections to make a report: Watchlist, IP addresses, or Registered users. Follow the recommended format for each section including the heading markup. Place the request at the top of the New requests subsection or the top of the watchlist. Provide page diffs from edit histories if appropriate and links to specific problem pages.
History
The first page used for tracking vandalism was a user subpage, ManningBartlett/Naughty people, some time before 4 November 2001. The vandalism in progress page was established as VANDALISM IN PROGRESS on 1 December 2001 - the title was upper-case to make it easily distinguishable on recent changes). Around the same time, the Misplaced Pages Militia (since renamed to the Volunteer Fire Department) was formed to coordinate responses to press releases about Misplaced Pages. The "VANDALISM IN PROGRESS" page was moved to the Misplaced Pages namespace in August 2002 and was renamed to the current title in 2006. Its archives since 2003 may be found in Misplaced Pages:Requests for investigation/Archives and the talk archives since august 2002 can be found in the history of Misplaced Pages talk:Requests for investigation/Archive 4 and in text form as subpages of Misplaced Pages talk:Requests for investigation. Old subpages can also be found through special:Prefixindex/Wikipedia:Vandalism in progress. the long-term abuse page also grew out of "vandalism in progress". A section on the "vandalism in progress" page for persistent vandalism was added in February 2004, later abandoned, and then re-created as "Ongoing alerts" in September 2004; in December 2004 it was split off to its own page, titled Misplaced Pages:Vandalism in progress/Long term alerts.
