Revision as of 16:18, 22 April 2008


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

    Alerts

    User-reported

    This noticeboard is for obvious vandals and spammers only. Consider taking this report to Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.Tiptoety talk 15:09, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • 2nd opinion: I disagreed, read this for starters: "Any editor who breaches the rule (3RR) may be blocked from editing for up to 24 hours in the first instance, and longer for repeated or aggravated violations". ANI is mainly for discussion on topic or community ban for certain users like trolls. Either enforce a block to send home a msg to this user now, if not, escalate this case to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/3RR.
    Note: AIV is not for reports on edit warring. Take it to WP:3RR. Also, blocks are not a punishment. Steve Crossin (talk) (anon talk) 15:28, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    Edits are not vandalism. Please ensure recent edits constitute vandalism before re-reporting. Steve Crossin (talk) (anon talk) 15:26, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    User has been incorrectly or insufficiently warned. Re-report if the user resumes vandalising after being warned sufficiently. Warned user. Toddst1 (talk) 15:45, 22 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
