IP:2607:FEA8:1F1D:8400:E16F:1BC:E317:D8D9 creating a new, out-of-scope page.[7] Michael.C.Wright (^Talk/_Published) 01:52, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

@Bddpaux I think the following IP accounts are all the same individual performing the same, slow-drip abuse.

1. 199.212.250.163 (talk · contribs · page moves · block user · block log) [8]
2. 2607:FEA8:1F1D:8400:E16F:1BC:E317:D8D9 (talk · contribs · page moves · block user · block log) [9]

All accounts are performing similar edits: nonsensical content, irrelevant sources, and spamming talk pages with similarly nonsensical content after making edits. You've blocked one. I think you should block them all from anonymous posting and lets quit playing whack-a-mole. Michael.C.Wright (^Talk/_Published) 15:40, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

You're most probably right.--Bddpaux (talk) 18:38, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

More nonsensical content followed by a renewed request for review.[13]. Both en.wt and en.wp have blocked the entire 199.212.250.0/24 range, which is a school.[14], [15] Michael.C.Wright (^Talk/_Published) 01:26, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

This IP account resubmitted a review request without addressing existing issues.[18] Note, this IP is sourced from the same Canadian town as 199.212.250.163 and is continuing the same behavior: removing valid deletion requests[19] and posting nearly-nonsensical content and responses.

I have previously posted alerts regarding IP:199.212.250.163.

Additional vandalism from IP:2607:FEA8:1F1D:8400:E16F:1BC:E317:D8D9. This time again submitting an article for review after adding nonsensical text and a source that is off-topic from the headline.[20] Michael.C.Wright (^Talk/_Published) 20:06, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

I've submitted a Checkuser request for all three accounts. Michael.C.Wright (^Talk/_Published) 20:38, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

IP:107.122.189.11 can't block IP:199.212.250.163 in Special:AbuseFilter/36 (Recent not news article)

IP:107.122.189.11 can't block IP:199.212.250.163 in Special:AbuseFilter/36 (Recent not news article) because of IP addresses but not user accounts. I think the block would be helpful in user accounts in the same Special:AbuseFilter/36 (Recent not news article) page. 199.212.250.163 (talk) 16:07, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

May I ask what in the world that is supposed to mean?Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 13:51, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Promotion and spam. 199.212.250.163 (talk) 16:23, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

User does not exist, locally or globally. Also, administrator cannot globally lock accounts, only stewards can. Requests for that belong at steward requests on metawiki.Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 13:53, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Please block 199.212.250.163 already

Nonsense, spamming 5 different users and related talk page whenever they do even the most minor things, refusal to get the point, been blocked for it before, don't seem to understand that this is a news site or english very well. Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 14:15, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

I agree. There is are two threads above documenting the disruption, which is sourced from two different IP ranges.[24], [25] Some of the more recent edits have been constructive. But I still agree a long-term block of anonymous access from two IP ranges would greatly help. Constructive users can always register a username to contribute. Michael.C.Wright (^Talk/_Published) 14:42, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Is it possible to ban them just from talk and user talk namespaces? That would probably be best if possible@Michael.C.Wright:Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 14:43, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Please block 2607:FEA8::/32 too

Per above Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 14:46, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Consider local block for 173.76.102.69

173.76.102.69 (talk · contribs · page moves · block user · block log)

The IP account is currently globally blocked for cross-wiki abuse, including at en.Wikinews.[26] Given the history of abuse here, a local, long-term, anon-only block might be beneficial. Michael.C.Wright (^Talk/_Published) 16:11, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
