Talk:Vandalism reports

Action on cross wiki vandalism

Over the past week cross wiki co-operation by a number of people has resulted in the blocking of five IP addresses associated with vandalism on more than one wiki. These IPs are now blocked here, Commons, en Wikibooks, en Wikiquote & en Wikipedia - if you can block them elsewhere please do so - you will have less work in the future!

There is an IP associated with page move vandalism (WoW style) on two wikis. Three IP addresses that have used inappropriate graphics on at least three wikis (the "bottle one"!) and an IP that has created inappropriate user name accounts on two wikis.

The details of the IP addresses are on the main page. The information is derived from a number of sources including block reports on wikis, dns blacklists & CU checks. My thanks to all those who helped.

If you can help deal with cross wiki vandalism (have sysop rights somewhere somewhere?) or will report useful information it would be good to have some indication on this page. Not a fan of "Sign up here" but feel free to sign up here <g> --Herby ^{talk thyme} 12:40, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Cross wiki selfpromotion

STOP discussing this here - this is not the correct forum to air your disputes. Please register an account and use your talk page, or take it to the relevant content wiki.  — Mike.lifeguard | ^@en.wb 21:11, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Views on archiving

Currently this page is archived rather lazily. We have a mix of subpages and all-in-one archive pages. I'd like to standardize this, using subpages for the "long-term recurrent" category, and everything together archives for the rest.  — Mike.lifeguard | ^@en.wb 20:35, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

User: namespace abuse

We have seen a rash of abuse of the User: namespace since SUL was rolled out; this is currently being dealt with at Talk:Spam blacklist#User: namespace abuse, but it may well be relevant to those who deal with cross-wiki vandalism as well as those who watch cross-wiki spam. It may be worth putting these reports on a subpage, and transluding it both there and here so both groups may see it, and may watch it separately (for those who do not want the rather prolific edits to BL area clogging their watchlists). Does that sound acceptable to folks?  — Mike.lifeguard | ^@en.wb 19:30, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

General Tojo

Why the hell is all his personal data here??? What the hell are you doing, Chris 73??? Someone should remove all that personal information viewable by anyone. Just imagine if someone violent finds all this and decides to go beat him up. This should be deleted permanently and never reposted, and Chris 73 and Wknight94 should be heavily reprimanded.

Wondering why I am listed here

Can someone explain why this edit listed me as a "Non-SUL" sockpuppet of Nipponese Dog Calvero and incorrectly claims I'm blocked on German Wikipedia? I'm guessing this is some sort of confusion as a result of me having created the Peter Nguyen article on English Wikipedia, and then German Wikipedians importing the edit history from en but then deleting the article.
