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.

You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

This page has an administrative backlog that requires the attention of willing administrators.
This notice will be automatically removed by HBC AIV helperbot14 (talk) when the backlog is cleared.

User-reported

Saasupdate (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – account is being used only for promotional purposes. ~Liance^talk 19:15, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
And is now declared as such. Don't think there's something for AIV to do here. Izno (talk) 21:36, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Human rights promoter (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – On Boot camp (correctional) (diff): actions evidently indicate a vandalism-only account. Appears to be a WP:SPA created shortly after DonaldJuniorTrump (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · blacklist hits · AbuseLog · what links to user page · count · COIBot · Spamcheck · user page logs · x-wiki · status · Edit filter search · Google · StopForumSpam) was blocked and is posting essentially the same content on the same page. Classic sock situation. Amigao (talk) 19:37, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I don't get what's wrong with the content, seems to have lots of sources, and isn't clearly vandalism... ~Lofty abyss 19:44, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Prior socks on Boot camp (correctional) adding the identical content have been consecutively blocked:
DonaldJuniorTrump (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · blacklist hits · AbuseLog · what links to user page · count · COIBot · Spamcheck · user page logs · x-wiki · status · Edit filter search · Google · StopForumSpam)

Truthpedic (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · blacklist hits · AbuseLog · what links to user page · count · COIBot · Spamcheck · user page logs · x-wiki · status · Edit filter search · Google · StopForumSpam)

This one is doing the same, even with the same deprecated sourcing. There is not even an attempt to conceal it. - Amigao (talk) 22:57, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Some might be unreliable, but there were also BBC and WaPo that I noticed, at least, that I don't think are deprecated... ~Lofty abyss 23:42, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure what percentage but some content added by Human rights promoter definitely had help from an AI. –Skywatcher68 (talk) 00:52, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Soft user name blocks are usually given leeway for a new account, so there isn't a good sock block here. I agree with Lofty abyss, there isn't a good vandalism block here either. If you want further assistance, WP:ANI may be useful, but otherwise you will need to discuss with the other editor. Izno (talk) 21:39, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Svxkigdh (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – actions evidently indicate a vandalism-only account. Their edits are just complete nonsense. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 22:04, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Mananorouzi (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – On Ronald Reagan (diff): Uncommunicative disruption after final warning. Remsense ‥ 论 23:21, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
2601:249:8800:3E10:0:0:0:0/64 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RBLs · block user · block log) - category disruption continues after 1 month block (incl. adding mammal-related categories to TV shows w/ no mammals whatsoever) wizzito | say hello! 23:24, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
2601:586:CC01:1880:0:0:0:0/64 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RBLs · block user · block log) - vandalism after final warning wizzito | say hello! 23:29, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
2603:8001:9E01:4192:EDA0:D48C:305D:70A0 (talk · contribs · (/64) · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) – On European emigration (diff): Uncommunicative AI slop disruption after final warning. Remsense ‥ 论 23:31, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I smell Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Demographics vandal. Binksternet any comment? wizzito | say hello! 23:33, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I agree with you. The /64 range shows some other demographics editing of the same disruptive type. Binksternet (talk) 23:35, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
2601:249:8800:3E10:DD4C:6189:C86A:8992 (talk · contribs · (/64) · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) - continued addition of categories that do not apply to the topic, despite having received multiple warnings. SleepDeprivedGinger (talk) 00:20, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Dih250 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – Editor evidently is only here to spread hoaxes. See edits at Draft:The Triple Organization and Draft:Alexander Lukison; the latter is clearly wrong. Virtually identical hoax content is also at the IMDb page for "Alexander Lukison", perhaps this is the same editor? Skywatcher68 (talk) 00:40, 29 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
