Regarding Tyagi wiki page
Sir, one editor Avinash Vats continues to revert my edits and he is citing Raj era sources like BrahmanUtpatti darpan and British Raj sources, they are all unreliable. He is involved in editing war and doing disruptive editing and vandalism on Tyagi page.Marvel200 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 04:52, 29 March 2022 (UTC)

I see you have protected Abhira tribe recently. I think Yaduvanshi ahir's (talk · contribs) will need a sanctions notification but I've forgotten how to do it! Can you oblige?
This is yet more evidence of my theory that editors of India articles whose usernames contain a caste name, the word "truth" or the word "history" should be blocked on sight! I know it will never happen but I can dream ... - Sitush (talk) 17:22, 14 August 2021 (UTC)

Why you keep removing and just erasing the content that clearly clarifies the about that particular topic.
Salamun44
Hi! You've just blocked Salamun44 for block evasion. Who is the sockmaster here? – Uanfala (talk) 01:03, 19 August 2021 (UTC)
- I'd actually like to know, too. I just blocked ChampeonZekz as a sock of Salamun44 and tagged them both as if Salamun44 is the master, but if there is an earlier account, it'd be useful to sort out the tagging. Thanks.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:56, 21 August 2021 (UTC)

Both ChampeonZekz and Salamun44, as well as Semonlee, still need to be properly tagged as suspected sockpuppets of SajidMir2, so they appear in Category:Suspected Wikipedia sockpuppets of SajidMir2. I don't know how to do this, and I'm not even sure if I can do so as a non-admin (?), so I'm asking you. Thanks!

I appreciate your support of taking care of one of the users who’s been vandalizing Pencilmation. However instead of blocking one user try doing this range 2A02:C7F:1438:A300:0:0:0:0/64 for 3 months just so they can stop.
Tiger Shroff
mr yamagutchi i do think you are mistaken because if you search the internet you will see that there is millions of articles and links that keeps talking that tiger shroff actually dubbed a hollywood movie in hindi and he did if u want me to insert an incitation specify which source you want me to use
Highest peak of eastern ghat
Please undo the deletion of other two names of the highest peak of eastern ghat including the most common one. It is not unsourced as it was hyperlinked with the another wikipedia article Aramakonda where height is also mentioned correctly 1680 m. Eastern Ghat does not pass through West Bengal - you may search google and see map even West Bengal is not mentioned in the main part of this article but wrongly written in the summary. So it is clear that the article is contradictory due to wrongly written West Bengal in the summary but not written rightly in the main article Poorva12303 (talk) 18:55, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
It is Arma Konda - sorry fo mistake and corrected - highest peak of eastern ghat Poorva12303 (talk) 19:03, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
2a02:c7f:1438:a300::/64
I appreciate what you did with the block however you made a mistake by only having the range not edit on Almost Naked Animals and just Almost Naked. As a result the range is still block evading. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/2A02:C7F:1438:A300:0:0:0:0/64 One last thing to note, if the range is blocked from editing the pages your blocked it from doing then the user will have to go to other pages and the same problem will still go one.

Iraqi Armed Forces
Hello. I am deeply sorry to bother you and to take your time. I have one question. Could you do the same type of article protection to the Iraqi Armed Forces as you did at the Iraqi Army? That page is also under constant abuse of one permanent sock user ShkoDevAct (talk · contribs) and now I suspect that same user use IPs to edit, mostly to put back that sock content (many of that just unsourced, and some just pure vandalism).

Hello. You protected this page. In the section about Mecca, please remove the words "da Phishooks" as this is vandalism added by an IP.

Pratapaditya
Probably wise to install ECP under ARBIPA. See recent eds. TrangaBellam (talk) 17:59, 9 September 2021 (UTC) @Yamaguchi先生:I do not belong to either the caste or creed identity of Pratpaditya, It is very deliberate of TrangaBellam as she effectively reduced a page to an informed one which selectively quotes an author who is not an expert on Pratpaditya and there are many writters who have written about the multiple wars he fought. If neutrality and fairness is not on display by the senior users, then the incentive to be truthful decreases . I sincerely request you to return the page to a semi protected page as I am willing to give proper citations without deliberations or exagerrations.

Changed a /32 partial block to sitewide
Hello Yamaguchi. Per this sequence of events and a complaint at WP:AIV I found that that your partial block was not holding back the tide, so I extended it to sitewide, with the same expiry on December 8. If you think this is excessive, please adjust as you prefer. Also leaving a ping for the original blocker, User:NinjaRobotPirate. If you view the range contributions and search for the word 'current' you'll probably see that fewer than 20% of that range's edits are still top-of-trunk. Which suggests there is little collateral. (Regular editors have undone most of their changes). Thanks, EdJohnston (talk) 15:43, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
- It looks good to me, thank you Ed for the notification. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 21:21, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

Sir Your knowledge About Katras is totally negative, incomplete and does not provide the actual pictures about that place
Believe the suggestions given by me I can provide proper references about what I had written in that page u have completely removed the culture section, tourist spot and center of attraction schools that really exists in the vicinity of the place.

About edit war
Dear Yamaguchi先生, I'm sure you've noticed that editing wars often occur in areas where you and I share a common interest. This area has not had any information added to it due to an editing war, and even important pages remain stubbed out. My suggestion is to remove the extended confirmed users rights of those who are in an edit war, and to do extended confirmed protection for pages that are in the edit war. Best regards, --Freetrashbox (talk) 21:32, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
- Hello Freetrashbox, thank you for this suggestion! I will take this into consideration when protecting articles due to ongoing edit disputes. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 21:58, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
As I see it, for articles belonging to a certain field on English Wikipedia, it is ultimately advantageous to use the latest version as his(her) preferred description. This is because the longer he keep the latest version of the article edited to his liking, the more likely it is that his preferred description will remain when the article is protected. Especially when the opponent is a non-confirmed user, the confirmed user will win if the article will be semi-protected. This is like promoting an editing war. In my opinion, it is effective to mechanically revert an article once and then protect it, instead of protecting it in the version where the editing battle occurred. And to show that the administrator does not endorse the reverted version, the summary should say that it was mechanically reverted due to an editing war. Then editors will try to refrain from hasty revert, hoping that the article will be fixed in their preferred edition. Of course, that alone won't solve the problem, but I think it's important to create a system that puts him at a disadvantage if he joins an editing war.--Freetrashbox (talk) 00:12, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

How we will see unregistered users
Hi!
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

122.161.0.0/16
Going by the block log and CU log, there are a lot of socks on Special:Contributions/122.161.0.0/16. That said, it seems unlikely to me that you'd need to block the entire /16. From what I can tell, people tend to stay within a /20 or /21. There are some logged-in accounts that have made 150+ edits over the course of a month, all within the same /20. If you blocked individual /20s, that would probably be better. You should also consider changing the block reason to {{rangeblock}} so that people get more relevant information about appealing range blocks. Newer users in particular tend to be very confused by range blocks. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 18:58, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

IP LTA editing disruptively at user talk pages

Hello User:Yamaguchi先生
There has been persistent vandalism on the Gadabuursi page ever since the protection templates were removed.

I'm requesting for the page protection to be restored so the integrity of the page can be maintained.

Indefinitely suspended user(s) returning to make unferenced and propagandist edits.
Hello Yamaguchi. Hope yourself and your near and dear are doing well.
I edit as NYCLover2016, but am unable to log in as I am restricted to my smartphone as of now, and have reached out to you before. In the last few months two users you banned namely Kambliyil/Boschanot are back to doing what they were for which they were suspended as ips. They are relentlessly active on pages pertaining to the state of Kerala in South India. Eg Kannur and Kannur district. There are many others you will find. The ip is 150.129.101.74.
I am sorry I am not logged in. Since you had suspended them both for this very reason I request you. These edits are propagandist and done with malicious intention. All that is secondary though. Primarily its a fact that what they are putting in is wrong info.117.194.105.65 (talk) 13:50, 14 April 2022 (UTC)

Sock account indefinitely blocked, but still active on wiki platforms
Hello, I wanted to enquire that if an account is found as a Sockpuppet account after SPI, than that account is blocked just on the platform where the SPI was conducted or across wiki platforms? I came across a sock puppet account which is indefinitely blocked User_talk:Hind_ji and its request to unblock is rejected multiple times, but this account is still active and editing in similar disruptive manner in Hindi Wikipedia. I have checked the Wikipedia:Blocking_policy, but it is not clear that this block is applicable across wiki platforms or just on English Wikipedia. Can you please help to confirm how this indefinite block is implemented on wikipedia platforms? Thanks. History quester (talk) 07:47, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher) I'm not an admin, but my understanding is that for small-scale sockpuppetry, blocks are limited to the specific project where it was done. See mw:Sock puppetry which says
Generally the issue of sockpuppetry is a local issue to be managed by each community
. It also says that if an account is disruptive in multiple projects, a global lock at meta can be requested. Hemantha (talk) 04:56, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Disclaimer that I am not familiar with the Hindi language Wikipedia, you may want to try reaching out to what appears to be their Administrator Noticeboard at hi:विकिपीडिया:प्रबन्धक_सूचनापट as a starting point.

POV editing by user(s)
Hi, it is regarding POV editors (this user particularly) in this article, as well as similar changes, mostly removal of long standing sourced content without any consensus and possible addition of SYNTH here. I believe some sock/meat puppetry is going on as well. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 16:00, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you Fylindfotberserk, I've left a discretionary sanctions notification for that user and will continue to watch these articles. The Kamboj page does have its share of disruptive editing, misinformation, circular sources, et cetera. I am also pinging @Sitush:, in the event they would like to review these articles for accuracy as well, as they have a much keener eye than I do. My hope is that the current page protection will reduce some of these issues, and if you see any clear evidence of socking please let me know and/or share an WP:SPI report.

Hi, I request please not to simply blame that my edit is not constructive. I just added a source for Sananth being a part of Mahaan (2022 film) film in the page Sananth. I don’t understand why whenever I add some soure or some information they are reverting it and mentioning that they are non constructive. I have come to contribute to Wikipedia not for vandalizing. Please don’t unnecessarily block me from editing. Otherwise my whole contributions will be gone. If I made a mistake I feel it’s better to correct. I know there are bad editors who vandalize Wikipedia but then there are also some good editors some of them may be innocent also who wants to contribute towards Wikipedia. 109.177.10.208 (talk) 18:16, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- Hello 109.177.10.208, thank you for contacting me. With respect to this edit, it was reverted because it does not appear to corroborate the preceding claims. Those claims include: this film was a third collaboration with Karthik Subbaraj, that the role is "important", and that it was released on Amazon Prime to "generally positive reviews". The Twitter link provided appears to confirm none of this and was thus removed. Is there a better source available, one that is reliable/independent and confirms any of these claims? If not, this paragraph should be pruned to only that which is verifiable. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 18:27, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
Don’t worry I have added a source from Times of India which is mentioned about the film’s review and also the cast members and their characters. 109.177.10.208 (talk) 18:33, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

Ash'ari
Dear Yamaguchi先生, I hope you are fine. I am finding it difficult to manage the edits on the Ash'ari page by User:Ahsanimtiaz53. He repeatedly deletes a paragraph that he dislikes, even though it is referenced, and becomes abusive when I restore it. He says the paragraph is "untrue". Please see the nasty dialogue on my talk page User_talk:GorgeCustersSabre#You_are_a_Dajjal. He calls me a liar, a donkey, and an antichrist ("dajjal"). On his own talk page User talk:Ahsanimtiaz53 I have politely explained that Wikipedia works on ”verifiability, not truth” as a guiding principle, and I have posted links to policies on verifiability and the need to maintain a neutral tone. I don't want to get into an edit war with him or her. I don't want to break the three-revert rule. Can you please take a look. Thanks so much. George Custer's Sabre (talk) 11:38, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

For the rest, similar references were published. They come from regional publications with editorial insights. Please check.Livingtrees (talk) 15:03, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
- Hello Livingtrees, thank you for your question. With respect to NetTV4U, it does not validate the birth year of 1976. It is also unclear who at NetTV4U published this biography, or where they sourced their details. The other website, celebrityborn.com, similarly does not cite any birth year. It appears to be a run-of-the-mill celebrity wiki website, and not something to be used as a WP:BLP source for Wikipedia articles. When adding new references, please take care to introduce those which are reliable, independent, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy.
- May I ask, where did you obtain 1976 as the year of birth for this individual? It does not appear on the websites mentioned above. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 17:50, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
- Hello Yamaguchi先生, there are regional and local language sources available that states the birth year. Will they work? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Livingtrees (talk • contribs) 10:32, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
- It is not possible to answer this question without knowing which references you are referring to. Would you please share these sources to the respective article talk page for consideration? Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 18:40, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
Rangeblock question
Hi, Yamaguchi. The big range 2409:4072::/32 has been partially blocked by you and others for two years.[2] I've just blocked a /64 in it, 2409:4072:6C13:F9AB::/64, sitewide for 48 hours. I'm aware that with an actual account a short sitewide block will undo a long partial,[3] but surely not a rangeblock where the ranges are of different size? Or? Did I screw up? Bishonen | tålk 08:39, 6 August 2022 (UTC).
- Hello Bishonen, this is something that I have actually been wondering myself! I am so sorry, I don't know what happens when there are two overlapping rangeblocks with different block terms. I would expect that after the shorter block expires, the terms of the active longer block will resume, but not sure when what happens when say a sitewide block and partial block are simultaneously active during the overlap period. If you find the answer, would you please let me know as well? Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 18:35, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
Regarding the Rukidi III article
That article which you have removed was edited after making my findings, the king had 5 wives and 27 children of these children are the ones who were born to Omugo Evelyn Kahinju who gave birth to the king's first son Prince Stephen Edgar Karamagi. Omugo Evelyn Kahinju who is referred to as Omugo wa harukoto had the following children with the king; Prince Stephen Edgar Karamagi, p Prince Basil Mirembe, Princess Getrude Kabege, Prince Gerald Philip Manyindo and Prince Apollo Lyod Mugema. Now the wikipedia article on which I have information which you should have investigated before deleting has information lacking on all his offspring Ug culture (talk) 10:19, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
Regarding the Juliana Kanyomozi article
The first thing you see on the profile is her parents are Prince Gerald Philip Manyindo and her mother is Catherine Manyindo
In regards to her grand father, she is fathered by the Rukidi III's son Prince Gerald Manyindo Ug culture (talk) 10:37, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
Regarding your removed citation for Eagle Colorado Airport aka Vail Colorado airport
Hi there, I just received a message that you have removed my citation for Eagle County airport (EGE); for what purpose? I am a long time Vail resident, we refer to Eagle airport as "Vail Colorado Airport", "Vail Regional Airport: etc. the Wikipedia entry did not list these facts. I cited an informative article that details this information. There is no commercial intent behind either the citation, nor the article. Please feel free to visit the referenced article and read it in full. All it outlines is information about "Vail Colorado Airport". I would highly appreciate it if you revert your edit, as people looking up "Eagle Airport" should also be aware that it's commonly referred to as "Vail Colorado Airport" and "Vail Colorado Regional Airport". Again, being a longtime Vail resident, I am privy to such information - and was under the impression that Wikipedia was to be a crowd-sourced information hub relying on individuals who have first hand knowledge and ability to share that knowledge with the rest of the world.
Thank you for you consideration. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nikita Beriozkin (talk • contribs) 19:24, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Nikita Beriozkin. I wanted to take a moment to make a correction as there appears to be a misunderstanding. Yes, Wikipedia is a crowd-sourced encyclopedia. It is not necessarily built by those with first hand knowledge, rather the content is built from reliable, published sources which meet Wikipedia:Verifiability policy. There is no requirement that the content be submitted by someone with first hand knowledge. The concern is that the majority of the citations you have included are actually external links to commercial websites. This includes attribution to: Moser Aviation Private Air Charter, Blue Sky Limo transport shuttles, and Arriesgado on-line clothing store, et cetera. These are not encyclopedic sources and adding them to Wikipedia articles may be construed as a form of covert advertising, even if that was not your intent. Please see WP:REPUTABLE and the Wikipedia:Reliable sources guideline in full for details, and note the emphasis on secondary sources where possible. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 00:36, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Regarding Girish Mahajan Wiki page
Hi, We wish to edit the page of Girish Mahajan which is made semi protected recently by you. Akshaygujar1 (talk) 00:31, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
- Hello Akshaygujar1. As you have noted, this article is currently semi-protected due to WP:BLP violations. If you would like to suggest an edit, please do so on the respective article talk page at Talk:Girish Mahajan. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 00:07, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
Blocked IPs
Hi there, Yamaguchi先生, just wanted to thank you for blocking a couple of IP address I was struggling to keep under control with their vandalism and edits.
I just wanted to check in with you and ensure that I was handling these accounts in an appropriate manner. I am currently enrolled in the CVUA and wanted to ensure that I am doing everything appropriately here.
Thanks again! Skipple ☎ 01:11, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Skipple, thank you for checking in! I performed a cursory and somewhat random review of your recent reverts, and did not see any false positives or other issues. It looks like you are on the right track. Thank you for your efforts in maintaining the English Wikipedia. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 00:47, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

Sockpuppet account.
Hello, Yamaguchi先生! Hope you are having a good day. I recently was scrolling through the revision history of Battle of Bagru to see if someone had added some incorrect information because it has a long history of incorrect and unsourced information being added. I see you have blocked AviJ8 for sockpuppet use, however I think I found another one of his accounts.
HistoryviaAT edits the same type of articles, and I suspect it might be a case of block evasion, thanks! Dinoz1 (chat?) 16:47, 18 August 2022 (UTC)

Raja sigh
that is not true, instead the collapse of Islam in India and Islam throughout the world and makes Muslims convert to Christianity or other religions.
Data on Muslims around the world there are 100% converts to Christianity, Muslims convert to Buddhism 40%, Muslims convert to Hinduism 60%, Muslims convert to Confucianism 30% , Muslims who become atheists are only 20% of the non-religious population in Muslim countries or other countries.
The data is that 100% of the world's Muslim converts from Islam to Christianity and Islam itself is only 50% of the population who is Muslim. 2001:448A:2003:1978:F89C:637C:62DA:2BF0 (talk) 01:58, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
Repeated vandalism
Sir! Please semi-protect the page Jiribam district as an ip is continuously removing references, notes, and other information, saying that those aren't necessary. I reverted once but it's doing again and I think I need an admin intervention. Moreover, that ip is adding information (maybe of own interest) with non functional citation.

- Hi Yamaguchi先生, I hope you are well. I see that you are not online at the moment, but if/when you see this, don’t reply as my email has broken because the service I was using is useless. You may not even need to reply but if you did want to say anything, just leave it here (without revealing too much about what I shared with you), and I will see it. The situation may be too old to handle at this point anyway. Again, hope you are well and hope you see you back soon! :) Blanchey (talk) 07:59, 14 October 2022 (UTC)

- Hey, no worries. Good to see you back. I fixed my email, so I have re-sent it. You might reply here if you didn’t feel comfortable sharing your email with me, although it was quite a private thing regarding a problematic editor, and don’t want to look like I’m assuming bad faith by reporting them, hence why I came to you. Thanks, Blanchey (talk) 20:31, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

- Hello Blanchey, I wanted to confirm receipt of your email. I'll take a look. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 00:21, 28 October 2022 (UTC)
- Hello, Yamaguchi先生,
- I hope you are well. I wanted to add something to this discussion, unfortunately my email is not working again (not letting me receive or send mail) so I have just deleted the account, I will get round to creating a new email for my wikipedia account soon, but in the meantime, I am only available here. I don’t know if you saw the email, just that you had confirmed receipt, and that you’d have a look, which could have meant that you hadn’t read it yet. So if not, basically, it was regarding a user (who has been editing for several years) who had issues following basic policies, and never listened when told, and I was wondering if, when you took a look, you’d consider indefinitely blocking them. The reason I didn’t take this to AIV, and came to you specifically, is because I noticed that you had recently indefinitely blocked an unrelated user, who had similar issues, and just thought that because you took such serious action against this user, you’d be willing to do it again. The issue is stale now, as it took place back in September, and the user in question has somewhat improved their editing, which helps us a lot. I won’t name them publicly, because that could be seen as a personal attack, although if they cause any more trouble, I will just take them to the notice board, and suggest an indefinite block to whoever reviews it. Thank you very much, and I hope you are keeping well! Kind regards, Blanchey (talk) 21:47, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
