full-protection

Dear Widr:

I'd like ask you to fully protect my userpage since non admin users from German Wikipedia tend to put a sockpuppet confirmed template on my userpage. However, my account here is without any blocks and I haven't been involved in any conflics. Please block my userpage until the facts in this newly created case are established. Thanks -- --Avoided (talk) 21:23, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

It's alright. Nothing was found. --Avoided (talk) 00:40, 7 January 2018 (UTC)

Hi widr thank you for telling me 208.163.57.226 (talk) 01:00, 7 January 2018 (UTC)i love you bye bye

A barnstar for you!

Possible sock

Hi Widr. Sorry to bother you but I see that you blocked 14.139.190.14 on 14 December 2017. It looks like they may be back as this user. I reported them at AIV but I then realized the possible link and I am not sure what to do next. Could you please have a look? The similarities in the redoing of edits on On Chesil Beach (film) and Youssou N'Dour seem quite striking. Thanks and best wishes DBaK (talk) 09:18, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks, blocked. Widr (talk) 09:23, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
Thank you very much for your help. Best wishes DBaK (talk) 09:25, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Anon block

I'm a bit concerned about your block of User:2602:306:8389:4120:1EC:A21A:BE6C:CD4B as "vandalism". Granted, it was BLP edit warring across articles, which might have earned him a block if he had continued after the explicit warning he got on his talkpage, but he was giving edit summaries, he was defending the edit on talk... not what I'd usually consider vandalism. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 19:02, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

Ok, I've unblocked. Widr (talk) 19:40, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
Thanks. Hope they take advantage of the chance to edit properly... --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 19:42, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

Worried about an editor

Hi. I'm sorry to bother you again but I am worried about the edits from this user. They are doing quite a lot of edits quite fast and unfortunately many of them are no good, being overlinking and in some cases "grammatical" changes which weaken or actually damage the text. Oh, and one egregious ENGVAR violation! I did ask them to slow down and read some policy but I see no evidence that they even saw my message. In the meantime they continue to link common words etc, at quite a rate. Some of their edits are fine; it's not vandalism; it is an overenthusiastic approach with hints of competence issues. I worry that they are someone elderly, or something. Could you possibly have a quick look, please? Thanks and best wishes DBaK (talk) 13:13, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

Could I just second DBaK's comments above. In a spare 30 minutes I have reverted many examples of WP:OVERLINKING on a host of articles, changing US articles back to US English from British English WP:ENGVAR, plus some unnecessary grammar changes. Whilst this is not vandalism, I do feel this has got to be stopped before editors time is taken-up with constant reversions. Regards, David, David J Johnson (talk) 13:55, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
Sorry for late reply, I have very limited amount of time for WP at the moment. This is not really something I usually get involved in, so I would suggest you discuss this with some other admin if that is still needed. Widr (talk) 17:24, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
Thank you. No worries on the reply speed, and they seem to have stopped anyway, so fine. Hope your other time issues are not too stressful. Thanks and best wishes DBaK (talk) 18:00, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

Reminder about Blocking consultation

Hello again,

The discussion about new blocking tools and improvements to existing blocking tools is happening on English Wikipedia and is in the final days. Also there is a global discussion about the same topic on meta.

We contacted you because you are one of the top users of the blocking tool on this wiki. We think that your comments will help us make better improvements. Thank you if you have already shared your thoughts. There is still time to share your ideas.

If you have questions you can contact me on wiki or by email.

47.136.93.191

This IP is envading their block and continuing the same behavior. --1989 (talk) 21:15, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

Can you please look into a range block for that ip you just blocked?

Every single edit under 67.217.155* is vandalism. See:

CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 16:36, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

Done. Widr (talk) 16:52, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

Request

Hello Widr, I will have to request you that please temporarily add the word "Gaikwad" to the edit filter disallow because there is continuous edit war on 3 articles: Sa Re Ga Ma Pa L'il Champs 2017, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa L'il Champs and Sa Re Ga Ma Pa. Also notify me on my talk page in "Edit filter management request" section so that I get alert. Thanks. Piyoush (talk) 17:47, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

IP Vandal issue

Hello. You probably remember a certain pesky vandal who was block evading repeatedly to vandalize recently. Given his history of switching IPs, as seen here, you will probably need 3 different rangeblocks in order to fully staunch his block evasion (the Rangeblocks should also be 1-3 months long, given his persistence). Can you please expand his blocks into rangeblocks? Thanks. LightandDark2000 (talk) 10:57, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

Here are the IP Ranges: 165.120.199.0/21, 109.150.45.0/18, 86.148.0.0/16, 86.179.0.0/16, 86.150.0.0/18, and 109.147.64.0/18. The first 5 ranges should be blocked for 3-6 months, since they are either his most active ranges or his most recent ranges, and due to his persistence. By the way, the person behind the IPs is a sockmaster called User:Iniced. LightandDark2000 (talk) 11:33, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

Socks?

Hi:

You just blocked Tidepodcasserole, but it appears to me that Thisisgospelforrepublicans, TheFewThatRemain, and Withbrandneweyes are socks - along with Wastemessbigfatmistake, who was blocked by Lankiveil.

Beyond My Ken (talk) 11:57, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

Thanks, all blocked now. Widr (talk) 12:19, 19 February 2018 (UTC)
No, thank you! Beyond My Ken (talk) 12:24, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

Sockpuppet is back

User:Eimukas22 is back with another sockpuppet account – User:Jotvingis994. In addition, he is also using an anonymous IP account. – User:188.69.211.56. – Sabbatino (talk) 21:12, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

I blocked the account, but the IP is stale now. Widr (talk) 21:21, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

Block evasion

I believe this is ducky enough to block My dick in your mouth (talk · contribs)? [1],[2] and this user who you just blocked [3],[4]. Also, this new IP popped up as I was typing this [5] HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 06:22, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

Blocked, thanks for the note. Widr (talk) 06:36, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

Everhdom000

Please revoke Everhdom000's talk page access as the user still vandalizes their talk page while blocked. Thank You. Thegooduser Let's Chat 22:28, 21 February 2018 (UTC)
