Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism

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.

• Dohaqatar974 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – account is being used only for promotional purposes. Vinegarymass911 (talk) 20:41, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

  Meh, 2 draft edits. Izno (talk) 21:51, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

• 2A00:23C5:EDA9:4D01:FC44:58F7:2F96:47A8 (talk · contribs · (/64) · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) IP is systematically removing the words "Middle East" from multiple articles, no reason given. --Kansas Bear (talk) 20:44, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

  Edits are not vandalism. Please ensure recent edits constitute vandalism before re-reporting. See Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard#IP removing "Middle East" from articles. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 21:37, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

• Unnibr22 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – actions evidently indicate a vandalism-only account. Repeatedly posting hoax WP:FAKEARTICLE content on user talk page. Almost certainly created the WP:SOCK account Unnibr2 who has done the same thing on their talk page. Recommend blocking both accounts for disruptive editing/socking. Drm310 🍁 (talk) 22:13, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
