Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism

"WP:RVAN" redirects here. For information on how to respond to vandalism, see Wikipedia:Vandalism § How to respond to 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! 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.

User-reported

• OdieFan3107 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) Complex vandal of weather sections of city articles. I painstakingly tried to corroborate the sources cited by their edits and could not. I left one warning on their talk page, and then a detailed note asking for specifics about their source. The editor did not respond, and continued editing. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 17:51, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
  • Maybe not. Their most recent edit to Calais is sourced and the information is correct. Magnolia677 (talk) 18:29, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Edits are not vandalism. Please ensure recent edits constitute vandalism before re-reporting. This new user's only edit is to post a user page which is well within what is allowed by WP:UPYES. JohnCD (talk) 21:06, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

• 99.248.70.203 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) – This is a long term pattern of abuse. User edits cartoon related pages and does subtle vandalism. Edit summaries are always button smashes. Requesting substantial block length.

• No names left!! abcd (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – actions evidently indicate a vandalism-only account. New user is creating test/joke-like edits, redirects, and articles as well as edit warring over same. WP:NOTHERE applies. Latest move is to copy the User pages of other editors and paste them to his own Userspace. Obviously not interested in building an encyclopedia. See contributions for evidence. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 19:41, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
