    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.

    Blacklisted ebooks.abc-clio.com, because the range occupied by this IP address (119.158.0.0/17) is a bit large for comfort. I feel comfortable with the blacklist because the site does not seem to be appropriate as a reference, but rather it's a subscription site for selling ebooks, and the vast majority of the links to this site were put on Wikipedia by this spammer. However, the blacklist may be temporary. ~Amatulić (talk) 18:37, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    This noticeboard is for obvious vandals and spammers only. Consider taking this report to Sockpuppet investigations. An account with 5K+ edits is not affiliated with the two other IPs unless there is some sort of sockpuppetry going on. — MusikAnimal talk 21:56, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    note that IP has just removed the warnings from his talk page, [6]. I.Bhardwaj (talk) 22:24, 24 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
