Reason for reporting: Cross-wiki vandalism, sock of globally locked user User:Mike17Matthews17. Intermediate action while waiting for action from SRG report. Griffinofwales (talk) 11:40, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Griffinofwales: ✓ Done, already globally locked.   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 21:13, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reason for reporting: Adding meaningless or offensive captions to images. Rsteen (talk) 16:20, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. 3 days block and I reverted one nonsense edit. Taivo (talk) 21:53, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Taivo. There are six older ones that are just as pointless. Cheers Rsteen. Rsteen (talk) 04:03, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
They all were reverted in the past. Taivo (talk) 08:23, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User: KYFM1990 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log
Reason for reporting: Continuing COM:WEBHOST, COM:PORN after two 3-month blocks. Lord Belbury (talk) 16:23, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done. The user was previously twice blocked due to uploading copyvios. His last uploads were deleted as out of scope. The user is warned and all his uploads are deleted. At moment that's enough. Next porn selfie will result a block. Taivo (talk) 09:47, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cukrakalnis[edit]

User: Cukrakalnis (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log
Reason for reporting: Nationalistic (more precisely chauvinistic) vandalism on the Category:Grand Duchy of Lithuania against the sources provided on the talk page, where the user failed miserably. Page protection is required (previous requests: here and here). Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 17:40, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Once more, Kazimier Lachnovič is claiming things that are simply not true. Removing Category:History of Belarus from Category:Grand Duchy of Lithuania is not chauvinism, just like removing Category:History of Belarus from Category:Russian Empire would not be nationalistic or chauvinist. Spamming the same sources over and over again and ignoring arguments against those cherry-picked statements is indicative that Kazimier Lachnovič is simply pushing himself a nationalistic agenda and so is blaming that on others.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 17:54, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Grand Duchy of Lithuania 1462 within modern boundaries
The category Category:History of Belarus should be present in Category:Grand Duchy of Lithuania according to reliable sources provided on the category talk page. So it will be present whether or not some disruptive users want it. --Kazimier Lachnovič (talk) 09:13, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Лобачев Владимир is distorting the reality. I am not 'rewriting real history and promoting a fake chauvinist position'. That is visible from the fact that I did not remove Category:Former countries in Belarus, Category:Former countries in Russia and Category:Former countries in Ukraine. Moreover, Лобачев Владимир is lying when he says that his view is backed by "historical, political and territorial data". Furthermore, Лобачев Владимир's writing about the Russian Emperor is absolutely irrelevant, because the Russian Emperor was also titled as the King of Poland at the time. Does that mean that Polish and Lithuanian history is suddenly all Russian? Nonsense. Лобачев Владимир is the one rewriting history, yet accuses others of what he is guilty. Moreover, 'Republic of Lithuania did not originate from the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, but from a part of the Russian Empire' is historically false nonsense, because when the Republic of Lithuania started in 1918, Lithuania was occupied by the Germans (under the rule of the German Empire and thus part of it), so Лобачев Владимир is historically inaccurate. Lithuania was no longer part of the Russian Empire at the time. Лобачев Владимир getting such basic facts wrong shows how he should not be trusted with his other statements concerning history.--Cukrakalnis (talk) 21:13, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. I fully protected the category indefinitely. I'm from Estonia, so I know something about history of Grand Duchy of Lithuania. Cukrakalns, I warn you: you can be blocked, if you continue pushing your non-historical agenda. Taivo (talk) 10:14, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Taivo, what non-historical agenda do you have in mind? Did you even notice that both Лобачев Владимир and Kazimier Lachnovič are repeatedly making non-historical statements and claims?--Cukrakalnis (talk) 21:53, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I mean your claim that Grand Duchy of Lithuania is not part of history of Belarus. Taivo (talk) 21:55, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User: 180.190.164.130 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log
Reason for reporting: Removing deletion templates from files, after being warned not to last week. This is presumably sockmaster User:Yuiyui2001 objecting to having their images discussed for deletion. Lord Belbury (talk) 10:13, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. 3 days block. Taivo (talk) 09:12, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reason for reporting: IP editor on a vandalism spree. I think I reverted everything, but they're continuing to deface pages. Eureka Lott 13:59, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Blocked for 3 days. Thanks for cleaning up! --Achim55 (talk) 06:37, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, @Achim55. More of the same today from 가나1. - Eureka Lott 23:27, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
✓ Done. Achim blocked the user indefinitely, the edits are reverted. Taivo (talk) 09:47, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

John emil hernandez and 191.126.6.132[edit]

✓ Done. I deleted speedily the problem file. Let's hope, that this is enough and block is not needed. The IP nominated 4 images for deletion and all the nominations were justified, so I do not block the IP as well. Taivo (talk) 09:28, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
✓ Done. Unfortunately vandalism continued. Now I blocked John Emil for a week. Taivo (talk) 09:51, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Taivo: Thanks again!   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 12:07, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reason for reporting: Please control this very strange IP user. He seem me a vandal. Thank you. --DenghiùComm (talk) 09:26, 29 January 2022 (UTC) DenghiùComm (talk) 09:26, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. 3 days block and I reverted the edits. Taivo (talk) 09:56, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Harrasment on Talk Page [1]

False claims like earlier reported IP:The user is making false claims against me on my talk page like the earlier reported IP. I feel both are sockpuppet to each other. I'm providing link to that abuse [2][3] This is to notify that he stalked me through different areas. That's why came to know about my real name and my city. And Pra2310 was my earlier username which I changed to Pri2000 due to privacy reasons. For the same reason I didn't used my real name as my username. And the user stalked me and added unnecessary false claims about me in my talk page Pri2000 (talk) 20:07, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Pri2000: I think you are mistaken about the username. Achim55 is an admin, and didn't do anything of what you claim. Yann (talk) 21:15, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Yann: no sir. I came to know that he's admin. But you can see what he made on my talk page. I've provided the links above. I'm providing them again[4][5]. How did he came to know about my real name and city and how did he used the harrasment in the exact way the earlier reported IP did. Adminship doesn't give anyone right to stalk and harass someone through other platforms like the universities where someone study or on Youtube and harass them herePri2000 (talk) 21:20, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Pri2000: No, I think that was an error by Achim55, which was immediately self-reverted. I removed the 2 offending sections from your talk page. Regards, Yann (talk) 21:30, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I apologize, I misidentified the point of the history the sentence mentioned above was entered. --Achim55 (talk) 21:31, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Achim55: @Yann: sorry sir. But it looked like harrasment like the previously blocked IP. As he personally stalked me. And now harassing me through new IP on his own talk pagePri2000 (talk) 21:33, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Harrasment: The IP now started harassing me from new address. Both are having geolocation in Lucknow. His earlier reported IP harassed and character assassinated me on Wikipedia. After that he got blocked there also. And again he started here.[6] Pri2000 (talk) 21:28, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done Reblocked including talk page. I also deleted that message. Yann (talk) 21:33, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Yann: thankyou so much sir for your help.Pri2000 (talk) 21:34, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

89.76.58.36[edit]

✓ Done. IP is globally blocked. Only one edit. In my opinion revdel is not needed, I hided edit summary and that's enough. Taivo (talk) 09:55, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Taivo: Thanks!   — Jeff G. please ping or talk to me 12:05, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reason for reporting: Continued disruption of discussion at Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Manos rojo and associated images. Clearly a sockpuppet of user whose files are nominated for (User:Manos rojo, who is an LTA on enwiki and also presumably here, and banned globally). See also User:Pieses amarillo. Kinu (talk) 06:16, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Manos rojo and Pieses amarillo are socks of globally banned user Rgalo10. Please nuke all their uploads as per WMF Global Ban Policy. --188.170.77.165 07:37, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
✓ Done. I blocked the IP. Both accounts are globally locked and I tagged them. I deleted all their contributions and closed the DR. Taivo (talk) 10:49, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

141.94.1.96[edit]

User: 141.94.1.96 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log
Continuous harrassment, stalking and character assassination: The user after getting blocked from different IPs is continuously harrassing and stalking me and character assassinating me by saying I cheated him in 2020. Like seriously. I doesn't know who he's. And most importantly I never indulged in any affairs neither in school nor in college now. Then how and why he's stalking, harrassing and character assassinating me for no reason. Sir please save me. It's crossing limits and I'm getting mentally tortured. I'm providing link to that talk [7][8] [9][10]Pri2000 (talk) 11:52, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. This is serious harassment. I blocked the IP, cleaned your talk page history and semi-protected it for 3 months. Taivo (talk) 12:37, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Taivo: thankyou so much sir for this helpPri2000 (talk) 13:44, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
