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! The edits of the user must be obvious vandalism or obvious spam. Except for egregious cases, the user must have been given enough warning(s). 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. 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). ~~~~ Requests for further sanctions against a blocked user (e.g., talk page, e-mail blocks) should be made at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. 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. You can subscribe to a web feed of this page in either RSS or Atom format.

• MsPSTA (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – On Palmetto State Teachers Association: account is being used only for promotional purposes. Username is a reference to Palmetto State Teachers Association, which it exclusively edits. It removes sourced content from the article that it perceives as negative and adds unsourced content.

• Hyck (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – vandalism after recent release of block; actions evidently indicate a vandalism-only account. Returned from one-week block to immediately resume editing habits, and is also now using an anonymous IP to also make the same edits. livelikemusic (TALK!) 19:43, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

  Can you clarify what edits here are vandalism? I only see one reverted edit. ThadeusOfNazereth(he/him)^{Talk to Me!} 20:32, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

  Edits are not vandalism. Please ensure recent edits constitute vandalism before re-reporting. The only plausible edit that this is about (unless you provide me the IP addresses to look at) is this one, where the user added a future concert to a Katy Perry tour's article. Upon conducting a google search, I do see that Katy Perry had announced a concert in Sao Paolo on September 14. As such, this looks like a good faith edit; good faith edits, even if they lack citations or otherwise don't adhere to policy, are not WP:VANDALISM. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 23:10, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

• 181.115.215.25 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) – On Ice Cream Man (film) (diff): account is evidently a spambot or a compromised account. IP-hopping user based in Bolivia has been engaging in this behavior for at least a month. Typical edit adds unsourced list of genres to film articles; recently, they add these, then immediately revert. User seems particularly focused on the Ice Cream Man (film) article (see this recent edit using another IP). Clearly WP:NOTHERE. CurryTime7-24 (talk) 22:16, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
