Requesting a block? Wikinews:Blocking policy states that administrators may block users who "excessively and consistently break site policy. Admins should only do this as a last resort - efforts to educate must be made first, followed by warnings." Admins can not and will not block unless this policy is followed. Please do not raise an alert here unless efforts to educate the user have been made, and warnings have been given. If you have an ongoing problem with another user, you should consider Wikinews:Dispute resolution.

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)[reply]
@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]
  3. 2607:FEA8:1F1D:8400:FE63:869E:B0E6:EAB8 (talk · contribs · page moves · block user · block log) [10]

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

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)[reply]

This IP account resubmitted a review request without addressing existing issues.[27] 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[28] and posting nearly-nonsensical content and responses.

I have previously posted alerts regarding IP:199.212.250.163.
