LTA in Seoul Halloween crowd crush
Hi ToBeFree, just fyi: dewiki LTA DoktorPolyOnePolymer is now active in enwiki as well, see IPs/Ranges provided in [1]. You might want to watch the article (guide me to the appropriate administrator's noticeboard, I'm never sure which one to use). Some of his edits are ok, but many are just random stuff he found on Google + poor machine translations of Korean sources (sometimes copyvio). Johannnes89 (talk) 11:38, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Johannnes89, thank you very much for the heads-up! If I see correctly, none of the accounts listed at de:Benutzer:Johannnes89/DoktorPolyOnePolymer are currently blocked on enwiki. Not even Special:CentralAuth/SubzeroZero85, blocked on dewiki and ruwiki, is blocked here or locked globally. This practically rules out WP:SPI as a place to go to at the moment, unless there are long-duration IP blocks being so clearly evaded that starting an SPI about an IP address is helpful.
- Dealing with this sockpuppeteer will be tough until they're blocked here. As I'm afraid the evidence provided so far is too complicated for a quick WP:AN request, I'd recommend starting a new section at WP:ANI that, while mentioning the dewiki history, focuses on evidence for enwiki disruption. If you can provide diffs that clearly show a need for a block, the first huge barrier might be broken. If you do so, please notify me and I'll have a look too. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 13:00, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for your advice! I will check his enwiki edits regularly and report to ANI if the edit quality turns out to be as poorly as in dewiki. --Johannnes89 (talk) 11:17, 31 December 2022 (UTC)

IP has been blocked but I think the blocking admin isn't around. The IP's Talk page access should be revoked. –Skywatcher68 (talk) 17:06, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
- Zsinj was faster. Thanks, Skywatcher68. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:17, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
Hi TBF, dropping a line to see if this is block evasion. Also to wish you a Happy New Year. Cheers, 2601:19E:4180:6D50:0:0:0:3F00 (talk) 19:40, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
- Oh. Hi 2601:19E:4180:6D50:0:0:0:3F00, thank you very much for the notification. I'm afraid it's at least off-wiki coordination / "meatpuppetry". There's a discussion at WP:COIN#Trish Kaufmann now; perhaps you might like to join. Happy New Year to you too! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:12, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
