Questions on global banning "Bambifan101"

Infamous disney vandal Bambifan101™ hasn't show any signs that he'll stop disrupting Wikipedia for good. Given his past history of cross-wiki abuse over 9 years can you please advice on the suitability on placing a global ban against the notorius abuser?

New HailesG's sockpuppet

I'm suspecting this ip (92.104.0.220) to be HailesG's sockpuppet. As shown through the same behaviors, interests and location (Switzerland). Regards -Aṭlas (talk) 17:02, 13 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Suspected Orwellianlocksmith sockpuppet

A user known as Nairncrosstrees, who I suspect to be a sockpuppet for Orwellianlocksmith has been performing edits to David Toscano. The first edit was an identical copy of the edits attacking David Toscano that Orwellianlocksmith. Since the primary, they've simply stated the margin and the opponent's name. That gets to a second concern about neutrality and the user's identity. The user is also focused only on David Toscano. I've dealt with other edit issues in my past experience with Wikipedia over the years, but user behavior and administrative policy is an area where I've had no experience. Any assistance would be appreciated. Artsygeek (talk) 18:38, 19 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppet investigation

Hi Bbb23. I see that you have indef blocked User:Gaditano23 because he has "has abusively used multiple accounts". I have an SPI open here which I think is redundant now. Is there a way I can close it myself? Alternatively, is there a place I can ask for it to be closed? Thanks. Scolaire (talk) 12:20, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) @Scolaire: change the {{SPI case status}} to {{SPI case status|close}} and add a note about the user being blocked and the clerks will take care of it. SmartSE (talk) 12:39, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Smartse, only checkusers, clerks including those in training and admins may change the case status to close. The patrolling admin duties are defined here. I've closed the case.

Oh woops. My bad. Thanks for enlightening me! SmartSE (talk) 14:36, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And thanks for closing. Scolaire (talk) 16:35, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sonic N800

Hey Bbb23. You blocked N800 back in January after they began socking while blocked for their other disruptive behaviors. I've been trying to deal with several of the IPs today and the past week. I'm not sure anything can be done but wanted to see if you had any advice that might help. I've tied him behaviorally to the following IPs since July (Not in order): 176.17.86.217, 176.47.124.81, 176.47.73.105, 95.185.3.102, 62.120.98.166, 37.217.11.42, 37.125.192.205, 5.41.223.111 - As you can see its a bit all over. They tend to return to past stomping grounds though so connecting them is easy. It's a mess though because almost every edit needs reverted, bad disamb edits, redirect retargets, and other biased/fan edits to articles. -- ferret (talk) 17:20, 6 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Flowers for you!

Hi Bbb23, I hope you are well and happy and enjoying yourself, and doing everything you need to to take care of yourself. This is just a note of thanks for all you have done on Wikipedia. If or when you see fit to return to active participation on Wikipedia, that would be awesome. But until such time, please be good to yourself and get some well-deserved rest.

Active editor displaying "Retired" template

Hi Bbb23. Just wondering about the fact that this editor puts up a template claiming to be retired, six months after signing up and has been editing for 18 months since putting up the template. Yes, for full transparency, 1) I see that you were the closing admin on a sock investigation of the editor; 2) I have just proposed for deletion an article initiated by this editor. Thanks.

False statements on user talkpage

Your warning placed on the user talkpage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Stephanielquick is false, especially this sentence 

You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words.

Please, familiarise yourself with the US copyright law.--109.92.171.142 (talk) 12:24, 13 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please familiarise yourself with WP:COPYRIGHT and WP:FAIRUSE. Bbb23's warning was correct. More than that, it was a standard warning, one of the approved warnings we use to warn editors about inappropriate activity here. --Yamla (talk) 12:28, 13 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No it's not. The Bbb23 sentence above is nonsense and cannot be justified by WP:COPYRIGHT and WP:FAIRUSE. The only valid text of the law is here https://www.copyright.gov/title17/title17.pdf. --109.92.171.142 (talk) 12:33, 13 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
