Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism

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

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 Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
6. 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.

  This noticeboard is for obvious vandals and spammers only. Consider taking this report to Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. I have serious concerns about this user's pattern of editing. But I'm not seeing any naked vandalism which is what this board is for. Ad Orientem (talk) 16:27, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

  @Ad Orientem: With all respect, page protection won't work, this won't work, ANI will call this content dispute. What am I supposed to do? You see his edit history, do I have to revert him all the time or keep it? Beshogur (talk) 16:41, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

  @Regioncalifornia If you believe their editing has crossed the line into disruption, I think ANI is your best bet. However if you think this is just a content dispute see WP:DR for suggestions on how to resolve it. I note that this user has received multiple warnings for edit warring and was recently blocked by Bbb23. -Ad Orientem (talk) 16:49, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

• Lingzong (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) This account was the first to make the self promotion of a religious leader vandalizing Gelug pages referenced above. Has been active but recently logged in for an edits moments after this vandal, 2405:9800:B900:534B:1834:1AAF:B94B:797E, edited for more religious self promotion. It is obvious this is the person changing their ip and vandalizing these religious pages. There are several different ips that have been doing this across Gelug pages.

  User has been incorrectly or insufficiently warned. Re-report if the user resumes vandalising after being warned sufficiently. I've given them a level II warning and I blocked the /64 range on the IP x 72 hrs. Ad Orientem (talk) 16:37, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

• 151.95.33.12 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) – Removes sourced material like here and here. Most of his edits are aimed at removing native languages. Regioncalifornia (talk) 16:38, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
