Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Ak169808 (talk | contribs) at 06:35, 22 November 2010 (Reporting AlexiusHoratius. (TW)). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

    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.

    Question: Would it be possible to get a diff of the edit in which the user in question actually states any of these edits are intentionally inaccurate? This seems like tendentious editing, but not so much like vandalism. - Vianello (Talk) 03:54, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    He will not acknoweldge that they are intentionally inaccurate. But look at this edit about a very famous living person (Taylor Swift) albeit not in an article, but nonetheless false claim about a living person: [10]]. That's not the only intentional inaccuracy, but it's the easiest one to refute. Even if the intentional inaccuracies are overlooked, look at the pattern of reverting despite warning after warning after warning, and then saying he intends to continue doing so. How long does this have to go on before it becomes blockable? He has been given multiple final warnings. Cresix (talk) 04:03, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Edits are not vandalism. Please ensure recent edits constitute vandalism before re-reporting. Does not look so obvious to me, in fact the user even tried to add references at one point [11]. I protected the page for 3 days for edit warring/content dispute. -- œ 04:49, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    No vandalism since final warning. Re-report if this user resumes vandalising. Their final removal of the template was actually simultaneous with the final warning, and they have not removed it since. They have now placed the "hang on" template on their article and so a block will not be needed. They finally get it --Diannaa (Talk) 05:00, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Warned user. - gave a final warning. Also - user has not edited in 1 hour.  7  05:29, 22 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
