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.

• From edit summaries it is evident that the following are the same person WP:NOTHERE. I left warnings on one talk page, but obviously in vain:

I guess, a rangeblock is due. I looked into the range and I see,eg. Martin (name) was abused unnoticed for quite some time. And some other names were vandalized multiple times as well. --Altenmann >talk 05:55, 24 January 2025 (UTC)

• 172.99.34.254 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) - Clearly just vandalizing articles, every single edit he's made has been reverted and it's all just random nonsense, not even trying to be constructive. Has already been blocked before, and came right back to vandalizing a month later. 88TylerDurden (talk) 06:27, 24 January 2025 (UTC)
