Misplaced Pages

Latest revision as of 09:28, 1 January 2025

• WP:AIV

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.

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.

User-reported

• 2607:fea8:2d43:d700:81d6:da5b:bc40:8f4b (talk · contribs · (/64) · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) keeps making major changes to Canadian political pages, without seeking consensus. GoodDay (talk) 05:43, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

  I don't see any edits under that account, or even under that /64 range. Writ Keeper ⚇♔ 05:45, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

  Check it now. Just fixed the link. Also used another IP, a day or so earlier. GoodDay (talk) 05:46, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

  No edits since being warned. Re-report if this user continues vandalising or spamming after sufficient warnings. Yes, the earlier edits look like they might be them, but no one seems to have warned the IP so we just have to start the warning countdown on this one. Daniel Case (talk) 06:28, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

• John40332 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – On Psycho (1960 film) (diff): account is being used only for promotional purposes; account is evidently a spambot or a compromised account. User's recent edits have been dedicated almost invariably to inserting links in classical music-related articles to an obscure sheet music site. Behavior appeared to be WP:REFSPAM and WP:SPA. Personal attempts to curb this behavior or reach a compromise were rejected by user. Further attempts to engage with them at WT:CM resulted in WP:ICANTHEARYOU, despite other editors informing user that their edits appeared to be spam or some kind of advocacy.

  Not a bot and not spamming, you just keep WP:HOUNDING me repeatedly, I cited sources to the publisher of the books in question. You appear to suffer from WP:OWN and act like I need your consent to edit the articles you feel that belong to you. You also know I'm not a compromised account, you spam Assume_good_faith on your reverts but you're mostly bullying other editors into submission.

You've been asked to stop disrupting editing https://en.wikipedia.org/User_talk:CurryTime7-24#January_2025 , and continue to harass any edits that touch "your" articles. You also keep saying I add citation to obscure music sites, just because you don't know something doesn't make it obscure. Additionally, you are the only person raising this as an issue because you're extremely controlling of the articles, you don't own Misplaced Pages and hopefully some other editor or admin can remind you of that.
