For personal reasons I will be doing far less editing in the near future than I have done in the past, which may result in messages here receiving less attention than I would normally have given them, or possibly even not being answered at all. I am not able to say when, if ever, I shall return to more frequent editing.

Return of blocked User:Mou3awiya Rafi3i, yet again
Our old friend is back, this time as User:Jimmy Jam III, who barely let the paint dry on your announcement of reduced activity to do all the old edits again (of US presidents and anachronistic style and arms on the Byron family, plus some others). Since I saw you did an administrative action earlier today, I am raising the issue here first since you are already familiar with the scenario - if you have the time and inclination and you agree it is a sock, then if you flag the account I will take care of all the reverts. Otherwise, I will proceed to the more formal SPI process for a determination. Agricolae (talk) 14:08, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
- Done. Agricolae you can do the reverts. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 15:18, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

Newsies sockpuppet
Hello. Is this another sockpuppet for User:Roosterknees? -- Ssilvers (talk) 05:06, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
- Maybe, maybe not, but an indef for 'vansalism only' puts an end to this one. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 07:19, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
Incivility again
JBW, a few months back I asked you about issues with editor civility ]. After the editor didn't get the message you implemented a block (which was then reversed). The editor and I have largely not crossed paths in the mean time but recently the uncivil have returned. Here is an accusation of whitewashing ], the exact accusation from last time. There is also this MfD an accusation of POV pushing against two unnamed editors (almost certainly myself given previous comments) ]. Do you have suggestions for dealing with this? Thanks. Springee (talk) 23:04, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
- @Springee: Unfortunately, the short answer is "no". I thought some of the comments in the discussion of my block were ridiculous, such as the claim that I had blocked the editor for one edit, whereas anyone who took the trouble to look at the relevant history would have seen that i blocked because of a history of numerous unacceptable edits. At least part of the problem is the perennial moronic view that someone who makes a lot of good edits should be allowed to get away with being uncivil and making numerous personal attacks, unlike new editors who should get blocked for far smaller numbers of uncivil comments. I have no idea why that view is so common, but it is, and it makes it virtually impossible to take any effective action against such editors. As far as I personally am concerned, for personal reasons I am restricted to a far lower rate of editing than I have done for many years past, so I am afraid I don't think I can get involved again. I am really sorry to be so negative and unhelpful about this, bu I'm afraid that is how it is, from my perspective. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk)
- JBW, thanks for the reply. I recall that unblock discussion and I sadly I think LP came away feeling like they did anything but wrong. At least NeilN showed their typical good sense and offered some level of warning. Hopefully LP and I simply won't cross many paths and it just won't be an issue. Take care!

Obvious spammer, not here to contribute.
Having trouble posting to the vandalism noticeboard so trying here instead. User Deworucijo is obviously WP:NOTHERE. –Skywatcher68 (talk) 19:37, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
