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.

• 115.65.37.217 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) – On List of naval battles ([1]): vandalism after final warning. repeated vandalism of List of naval battles despite warning. Already reverted IP's editing twice, but didn't stop vandalism. IP tried to distort historical facts based on nationalism.. PBJT (talk) 13:09, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

This noticeboard is for obvious vandals and spammers only. Consider taking this report to Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring. Somebody with more knowledge will have to chime in but it seems like a content dispute to me. Alexf^(talk) 13:19, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for your suggestion, but it's not a content dispute. The IP tries to propose a false claim on the conclusion of Battle of Busan (1592) (I know wikipedia isn't a WP:RS, but just to explain the sentence in question and why I see it disruptive). Not only that, IP inserted his POV in Naval history of Japan, Hata clan and Gyōki to name a few. I'll revert his editing in List of naval battles one last time, but if the IP doesn't stop, it will look like a editing war. Many Thanks, --- PBJT (talk) 13:37, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Note: Last edit looks like he's trying to discuss this. Daniel Case (talk) 15:11, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for your comment. I replied to that, and looks like it should be fine without any admin arbitration. Many thanks for your help, and feel free to remove my report/comments from the board. Best, --- PBJT (talk) 15:23, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
