This is a place where users can communicate with administrators, or administrators with one another. You can report vandalism, problematic users, or anything else that needs an administrator's intervention. Do not report child pornography or other potentially illegal content here; e-mail legal-reports@wikimedia.org instead. If reporting threatened harm to self or others also email emergency@wikimedia.org.

Vandalism-only account. (Goodness, what a mouthful.) Omphalographer (talk) 01:12, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The last time I had filed a CU case, it was because I knew that there was a sock from the original user. - THV | ♂ | U | T - 01:15, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
✓ Done. Indefinitely blocked as sockpuppet. Edits are reverted. Taivo (talk) 08:32, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Omphalographer: Also locked.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 12:56, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User:Phngnh

Had been blocked last month, the user continued to upload unfree files. 0x0a (talk) 18:06, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Blocked for a month. -- CptViraj (talk) 19:41, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

File:Flag_of_Brazil.svg

Please add Upload protection. There seems to be an endless revert war going on. Enhancing999 (talk) 02:50, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done indefinite autopatroller protection to prevent reverts —Matrix(!) {user - talk? - uselesscontributions} 08:33, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is this sufficient for the file versions? Enhancing999 (talk) 10:01, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well I trust autopatrollers not to revert war, since they also can overwrite files. —Matrix(!) {user - talk? - uselesscontributions} 15:01, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Matrix: Please re-protect. When you deleted some file revisions, the protection didn’t survive through the operation. --Geohakkeri (talk) 10:11, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Interesting, seems that's what happened in 2019 with the indefinite protection added in 2015.[1] Enhancing999 (talk) 10:19, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
✓ Done again should be good now —Matrix(!) {user - talk? - uselesscontributions} 15:00, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request to semi-protect File:Mining Yellow.svg

Used on 2,002 pages on the Latin Wikipedia, any vandalism to this file would ruin practically all of Latin Wikipedia, so that's why I'm requesting to semi-protect this file. Wheatley2 (talk) 23:14, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done The file does not seem to have been vandalised, but protecting it won't harm it I guess. Bedivere (talk) 02:01, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AnVuong1222004 (N)

All obvious sockpuppets, uploading similar non-free content and occasionally nominating each other's files for deletion. Accounts (2) through (5) are all already blocked; the five listed above aren't yet. Omphalographer (talk) 01:39, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done All blocked and tagged. Bedivere (talk) 02:00, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dmitrii Andreev

Repeatedly uploading the same file that has been deleted as a copyright violation. Was given a final warning, but persists. Marbletan (talk) 13:57, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. 3 months block. All contributions are deleted. Taivo (talk) 08:27, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

File:Capcut-logo.svg

Extensive IP vandalism in the past year. Gnomingstuff (talk) 05:42, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Semi-protected for a year. -- CptViraj (talk) 06:12, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
