Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism

Report active, obvious, and persistent vandals and spammers here.

WP:AIV

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!

The edits of the user must be obvious vandalism or obvious spam.
Except for egregious cases, the user must have been given enough warning(s).
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.
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). ~~~~
Requests for further sanctions against a blocked user (e.g., talk page, e-mail blocks) should be made at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
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.

Mr.fakepolicy (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – On Arunattu Vellalar (diff): Edit warring in Arunattu Vellalar and has violated WP:GS/CASTE restrictions multiple times in the past week. Jeraxmoira🐉 (talk) 06:16, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Asserting GS violations should be done somewhere else. As should edit warring. Izno (talk) 09:13, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Soy Mencho (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) vandalism and edit warring after final warning + endless IP socks. --BlameRuiner (talk) 07:34, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Relevant IP is Special:Contributions/2600:1700:12E1:A090:0:0:0:0/64, which has earned long blocks and which appears to be the same editor that did back then. I think WP:EWN or WP:ANI is a more appropriate place for this filing. I'm definitely having trouble countenancing recent edits as vandalism particularly.

Jokaryman2025 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – account is being used only for promotional purposes. Editing Leonard van Veldhoven with clear COI. Adding unsourced content, images, and failing to discussion despite many warnings on their talk page. User is clearly WP:NOTHERE.
