:::{{AIV|n}} Presumably if Theroadislong has seen promotional editing then it would have been easy for him/her to provide at least one diff, whereas for someone else to start searching from scratch takes much more time and trouble. Nevertheless, I have checked a 50% sample of the user's edits. Many of them are not remotely promotional. Those that were promotional were no doubt made in good faith. The user has made no article edits since being told there is a problem, and has posted on a talk page to discuss the issues involved. This is not the right moment for administrative action against him/her, which will become appropriate only if and when the promotional editing continues ''after'' suitable warnings and explanation. ] (]) 13:54, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

    Report active, obvious, and persistent vandals and spammers here. Shortcut

    Before reporting, read the spam and vandalism pages, as well as the AIV guide. To submit, edit this page and follow the instructions at the top of the "User-reported" section. For other issues, file a request for administrator attention.

    Important!
    1. The edits of the user must be obvious vandalism or obvious spam.
    2. Except for egregious cases, the user must have been given enough warning(s).
    3. The warning(s) must have been given recently and there must be reasonable grounds to believe the user(s) will further disrupt the site in the immediate future.
    4. If you decide that a report should be filed place the following template at the bottom of the User-reported section:
      • * {{Vandal|Example user or IP}} Your concise reason (e.g. vandalised past 4th warning). ~~~~
    5. Requests for further sanctions against a blocked user (e.g., talk page, e-mail blocks) should be made at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
    6. Reports of sockpuppetry should be made at Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations unless the connection between the accounts is obvious and disruption is recent and ongoing.
    This noticeboard can grow and become backlogged. Stale reports are automatically cleared by MDanielsBot after 4–8 hours with no action.
