    Report active, obvious, and persistent vandals and spammers here. Shortcut

    Before reporting, read the spam and vandalism pages, as well as the AIV guide. To submit, edit this page and follow the instructions at the top of the "User-reported" section. For other issues, file a request for administrator attention.

    Important!
    1. The edits of the user must be obvious vandalism or obvious spam.
    2. Except for egregious cases, the user must have been given enough warning(s).
    3. The warning(s) must have been given recently and there must be reasonable grounds to believe the user(s) will further disrupt the site in the immediate future.
    4. If you decide that a report should be filed, place the following template at the bottom of the User-reported section:
      • * {{Vandal|Example user or IP}} Your concise reason (e.g. vandalised past 4th warning). ~~~~
    5. Requests for further sanctions against a blocked user (e.g., talk page, e-mail blocks) should be made at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
    6. Reports of sockpuppetry should be made at Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations unless the connection between the accounts is obvious and disruption is recent and ongoing.
    This noticeboard can grow and become backlogged. Stale reports are automatically cleared by MDanielsBot after 4–8 hours with no action.

    Note: — Maile (talk) 20:58, 10 September 2017 (UTC) I've left a link to the Manual of Style on their talk page. — Maile (talk) 20:34, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
    @Maile66: That's pointless. What you have is someone intent on using Misplaced Pages for bragging. I left repeated messages on his talk page and rather than learn about Misplaced Pages in order to contribute, he simply re-added the offending content with his WP:SPS sources. And now, rather than uphold the request I made, you're just going to tell him about MoS? Thanks for nothing. Chris Troutman (talk) 20:49, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
    @Chris troutman: OK. I've removed my decline. We'll leave this up to another admin. — Maile (talk) 20:58, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
    Stale warning. Last warning was issued 2 months ago. — Maile (talk) 12:54, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
    Page protected. The IP is changing often anyway. -- Ed (Edgar181) 13:07, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
    User has been incorrectly or insufficiently warned. Re-report if the user resumes vandalising after being warned sufficiently. If you're just unsure if this is vandalism, you could post an inquiry at Administrators' noticeboard — Maile (talk) 14:05, 11 September 2017 (UTC)

    Possible hijacked account – very active vandalism

    Special:Contributions/Zawl (an experienced editor) has this day showed lots of ongoing and bad redirects. Think account should have an immediate temporary block until we can find out what's going on. Aspro (talk) 17:46, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
