    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.

    You're going to need to supply more information than that! At least for me... I have no idea who you're talking about or what kind of abuse they're known for. --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:43, 15 August 2017 (UTC)
    @Floquenbeam: I originally had thought that this was User:Nsmutte. Their username closely resembles User:Bonadea, like many other of their socks. I guess if this was the LTA, they probably would have been blocked a long time ago... 73.96.113.23 (talk) 23:29, 15 August 2017 (UTC)
    Now that I'm looking at this again, it's definetly not Nsmutte, and the AfD that this user opened up was legitimate, unlike ones that Nsmutte usually opens up... 73.96.113.23 (talk) 23:31, 15 August 2017 (UTC)
    (Non-administrator comment) That particular edit filter appears to log every single edit made from 172.56.0.0/16 and 172.58.0.0/16. Most of these edits are going to be harmless. 73.96.113.23 (talk) 23:21, 15 August 2017 (UTC)
