This page exists to post alerts about any incidents of vandalism that are occurring, so that other users and administrators can more promptly respond to them. Wikiquote's definition of vandalism is the same as Wikipedia's and can be seen at Wikipedia:Vandalism.

Care should be taken before assuming an initial contribution is vandalism unless it's blatantly obvious the user knows what they're doing.

If the vandal is known to attack more then one language, or more then one Wikimedia wiki, it is recommended that a global (b)lock be requested on Steward requests/Global.

Adding reports Edit

Please report vandalism by creating a new report by clicking one of the two buttons below. Be sure to include the username/IP address and the behavior that requires admin intervention.





New report 2023-09-18, 18:32 Edit

Continuously adds fake episodes to the Smiling Friends article. 03isrflo62410 (talk) 18:48, 18 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The vandalism seems to be persistent, as whenever I remove the fake episodes, they're re-added not long after. 03isrflo62410 (talk) 17:41, 21 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Incessant spam/vandalism on a number of articles; repeatedly sends threats on my talk page. 03isrflo62410 (talk) 22:07, 19 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Ferien This seemed to be an open proxy. I'm inclined to extend this block to at least half a year or even longer. Lemonaka (talk) 23:29, 19 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Lemonaka, looking at English Wikipedia block history and contribs, this actually appears to be a school. I feel the extended block by UDScott to 2 weeks is ok in this scenario. --Ferien (talk) 06:27, 20 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Adding fake episodes to the Smiling Friends article. It's possible that this may be a sockpuppet, because the user is doing the exact same vandalism that a blocked user did, including adding the exact same episodes. 03isrflo62410 (talk) 12:39, 27 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
