Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism

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

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.

Important!

The edits of the user must be obvious vandalism or obvious spam.
Except for egregious cases, the user must have been given enough warning(s).
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.
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). ~~~~
Requests for further sanctions against a blocked user (e.g., talk page, e-mail blocks) should be made at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Reports of sockpuppetry should be made at Wikipedia: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.

False positive. Edits are not vandalism. Suspect a false positive as one of the football stats was being changed to "420" (which appears to be accurate from a cursory check). Spencer^T•C 05:18, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

128.197.28.149 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) – On Political status of Western Sahara (diff): vandalism after final warning. removal of sourced content without a valid reason. M.Bitton (talk) 03:40, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And again with this edit. When asked why the removed the content (again), they ignored the question, and when asked again, they left this personal attack (despite the fact that I already asked them to read WP:AGF after this this uncalled for comment). M.Bitton (talk) 05:19, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ModernDaySlavery (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – On User:ModernDaySlavery (diff): Possible EC-gaming. Leonidlednev (T, C, L) 03:51, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
107.178.28.209 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) – On Paramount Global: vandalism after recent release of block. Continues to change "founded" to "formed" on a variety of articles and refuses to discuss why they are changing the term from the correct one. Keeps getting blocked and continues the disruptive editing immediately after the block ends. Bahooka (talk) 04:59, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Chase283 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – Sock of Special:Contributions/Chase286. Geraldo Perez (talk) 05:20, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This noticeboard is for obvious vandals and spammers only. Consider taking this report to Sockpuppet investigations. After a cursory look, I'm not really seeing a clear overlap in contributions; may want to consider a report at SPI where they could take a more detailed look or if you have additional evidence.

Jann1993 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – account is being used only for promotional purposes. User page, user talk, and sandbox all pasted with certification and degree stuff. Sirocco745 (talk) 06:26, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Bharat Asia (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – actions evidently indicate a vandalism-only account. Already blocked here once for disruptive editing. I just indeffed them on Commons. Every edit they've made on both projects has been bad. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 06:27, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

103.241.38.204 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) This person pops up every little while and goes from article to article intentionally disregarding manual of style guidelines and screaming at people in all caps. Has been told several times to bring the point up at the manual of style talk page if they disagree with it, continues to edit disruptively disregarding MOS. Previously range blocked at 103.241.37.197 and 103.241.37.30
