This is a place where users can communicate with administrators, or administrators with one another. You can report vandalism, problematic users, or anything else that needs an administrator's intervention. Do not report child pornography or other potentially illegal content here; e-mail legal-reports@wikimedia.org instead. If reporting threatened harm to self or others also email emergency@wikimedia.org.

Sock/impersonation

Blocked as a sock on enwiki earlier this year, but not here. (Their oldest sock account here is User:Houston,illinois.) The username here is inspired by mine, as someone who's raised several SPIs against them in the past. Belbury (talk) 08:41, 6 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

User:Khiao do

Buenas administradores por favor bloquea a este usuario por que están violando los derechos del autor por ejemplo:

Ese usuario ignora las advertencias del copyright. AbchyZa22 (talk) 00:10, 7 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

I don't have time to deal with this one right now, but someone should take it up. Looks like an enormous number of presumably false claims of "own work" and illegitimate grants of CC-0 on copyrightable logos that are actually copyrighted by various organizations. Some are below TOO and can probably be kept, but should still be attributed correctly. I don't know if a block is yet in order, but we need to get this person to stop. - Jmabel ! talk 13:39, 7 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Evasion of block

Elrepositorio (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log

The user is doing an obvious evasion of block of their permanently blocked account, User:Oscar Antonio. They upload similar images (File:Portada 20 de noviembre 1938.png and File:Busqueda de Marta Ofelia Stutz.png) and even use one of Oscar Antonio's Flickrwashing accounts (File:Galleta Solei Solei.png). nicolas talkpage★★★ 17:55, 7 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
