Basic information[edit]

Xayahrainie43 (talk · contribs · block log · arb · SPI confirmed suspected)
Comprehensive edits analysis
A user from Taiwan who persistently adds fancruft and original research related to mathematics, especially number theory.

Targeted areas, pages, themes[edit]

Habitual behavior[edit]

  • Adding massive quantities of indiscriminate data and non-notable facts to articles
  • Making crufty sandboxes, either in userspace or at Wikipedia:Sandbox
  • Frequently adds inappropriate references to MathWorld or OEIS
  • Usernames often consist of Chinese characters and numbers
  • Frequently edits not-logged-in, using both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses that geolocate to Taiwan

Cases[edit]

Other notes[edit]

  • As edits by this user often go unnoticed, pages edited by this user should be watched, and mass additions should be reverted on sight. Long-term semi-protection of repeat targets may be needed, and is usually sufficient.
  • Also problematic on zh.wikipedia.org, and many socks and IPs have been globally blocked.
