    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.

    • Unfortunately, with an IP-hopping editor targeting multiple articles such as this, I don't think blocking the IPs will do much good. Options include requesting page protection(s) again, requesting blacklisting of any external links, or requesting a edit filter. -- Ed (Edgar181) 18:55, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
    • I've used this tool and this tool to find all contributions from an IP range in the past in order to estimate collateral damage, but I don't know how to get them to work (if they can) with IPv6 addresses. Perhaps this is something that could be brought up at WP:ANI to get input from other admins. -- Ed (Edgar181) 19:11, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
    The user also returned from their block to goad the very same admin they had been baiting previously - here.Rain the 1 23:34, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
    This noticeboard is for obvious vandals and spammers only. Consider taking this report to Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. Reaper Eternal (talk) 01:37, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
