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-reportswikimedia.org instead. If reporting threatened harm to self or others also email emergencywikimedia.org.
Vandalism []	User problems []	Blocks and protections []	Other []
Report users for clear cases of vandalism. Block requests for any other reason should be reported to the blocks and protections noticeboard.	Report disputes with users that require administrator assistance. Further steps are listed at resolve disputes.	Reports that do not suit the vandalism noticeboard may be reported here. Requests for page protection/unprotection could also be requested here.	Other reports that require administrator assistance which do not fit in any of the previous three noticeboards may be reported here. Requests for history merging or splitting should be filed at COM:HMS.

DrWeber29

User: DrWeber29 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) block user
Reason for reporting: The user does not stop uploading copyrighted works even after a clear warning from @Didym pointing out our guidelines. Lukas Beck (talk) 23:29, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

@L. Beck,  Done. Kadı Message 10:20, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

NakhonNan2269

User: NakhonNan2269 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) block user
Reason for reporting: Apparently a sockpuppet (Category:Sockpuppets of Saranphat chaiphet) created for block evasion, because this user and all the users in the mentioned category have been trying to upload the exactly same copyright violation files which are related to Nan Province. --Miwako Sato (talk) 11:31, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

 Done Blocked, all files deleted. Yann (talk) 12:12, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

Twngvy

User: Twngvy (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) block user
Reason for reporting: Continue uploading copyrighted works after being warned by Achim55. Iming 彼女の愛は、甘くて痛い。 13:41, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

 Done Blocked for a week, all files deleted. Yann (talk) 13:57, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

Mỹ Hà mh and Ayane Fumihiro

User: Mỹ Hà mh (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) block user
Reason for reporting: Sockpuppet of Khangofficial XReport --Ayane aka. eunn 15:09, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

User: Ayane Fumihiro (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) block user
Reason for reporting: Sockpuppet of AnVuong1222004 XReport --Mỹ Hà mh 16:11, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

(Combining reports of each other; they should be dealt with together.) —‍Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 17:11, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

 Done Both blocked, all files deleted. Yann (talk) 21:32, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

@Mdaniels5757: Actually Ayane Fumihiro is a legitimate editor with 30K edits. I unblocked this account. Yann (talk) 17:48, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

Pirags

User: Pirags (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) block user
Reason for reporting: He often deletes Russian-language descriptions of photos. Some examples: 1 2 3 4 and other. Bestalex (talk) 20:57, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

• Looks like Yann sent him a final warning (there were no earlier warnings, but this is blatant enough that one warning is plenty). If this continues, then a block is certainly in order, and maybe a long one. - Jmabel ! talk 00:11, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

ابا خشم السندوس

User: ابا خشم السندوس (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) block user
Reason for reporting: Copyvios after a final warning. Uploading old paintings found on the web (eg. File:Abdul Wahab Abu Nuqtah invades Jeddah in 1803.jpg) with the false claims that they asked an AI to generate the images this year. Belbury (talk) 17:41, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

 Done Blocked for a month and deleted everything that wasn't a flag or a map. There's an open DR for the maps. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 01:54, 30 December 2024 (UTC)

Blakezz

User: Blakezz (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) block user
Reason for reporting: Uploading personal manifesto images like File:Avant Garde 2025 Is Not Dead! Inspired by the GLOBUS HYSTERICUS AGENDA 21 AI TECHNOCRATIC MILLENNIAL SUCKERS!.jpg after a warning for out of scope content. User:Blakkez appears to be an alt account created a day later and uploading the same kind of content in parallel. No constructive contributions from either account. Belbury (talk) 10:20, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

 Done Both accounts indeffed. User:Marbletan seems to know more about this person - they tagged the second account as a sock of an LTA I don't recognize - but that wasn't a factor in these blocks. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 10:29, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
