Please report vandalism at the top of the "Current alerts" list below. Please only use this page for repeated malicious vandalism, not for one-off edits, or newbie tests. Except in cases of vandalbot or other rapid-fire attacks, please warn users and wait for further vandalism before listing them here. Do not list non-vandalism (see Cautions and alternatives below).
Please list the IP address or user name, pages touched, and damage done. Sign your name using ~~~~ after your report. Put the person's IP or username in the edit summary.
- Cautions and alternatives
- Please do not bite the newcomers by listing newbie tests as vandalism. Instead, assume good faith and list them at Misplaced Pages:Clueless newbies. If you suspect an edit may be vandalism but are unsure, list the edit on RC patrol. See NPOV dispute, Accuracy dispute and Requests for comment for content disputes. Page protection may be requested. Report three revert rule violations at WP:AN.

Long-term abuse |
|
- This page is not a noticeboard. To report vandalism, use the administrators' vandalism noticeboard.
This page summarises a limited number of long term abusers, to assist members of the community who believe they may have cause to report another incident. Note that this page is not a noticeboard. Names should only be added for the most egregious and well-attested cases. Most users here will have been banned, some on multiple occasions.
In the vast majority of cases, denying recognition and revert, block, ignore are more suitable approaches. |
- Cautionary notes
- Don't provide too much info
- The text should tread a careful balance between providing useful information and providing enough to obstruct detection. In general such information should only be shared with users of a high level of reputation.
- Hints on useful info
- Consider providing just a summary of the behaviors and nature of disruption, key case pages (SPI/ANI/RFAR), and the names of current experienced users familiar with the abuser (with their "giveaways", history, behavior traits, etc.)
- Don't use LTA unless needed
- Only add vandals that have a need to be pointed out, especially ones whose contributions could be confused for good-faith edits by somebody unfamiliar with their modus operandi. This includes sneaky sockpuppeteers, prolific trolls, POV-pushers, editors who add deliberately false or biased information and promotional editors. Blatant vandals whose sockpuppet accounts would be blocked swiftly as vandalism-only even if they weren't evading a previous block usually do not need to be listed here.
- Use language carefully
- Do not use language that glorifies vandalism. Do not use relative time phrases such as "lately", "recently" without qualification (use "As of date...").
For help, please ask on the project's talk page or contact one of the helpers. You may also be interested in the filing instructions, but again, please be mindful of DENY. If you need more information on an user listed here, your best bet would be to contact the user that submitted the report, which can be found in the page history.

Emax
- Emax (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log)
- The notorious Polish imperialist again violated the 3RR in the article on Vasili IV of Russia, and continues to vilify other articles on Russian tsars. For example, he continously inserts Polish spellings for the Russian cities in the article on the Russian tsar False Dmitriy I. Also, close to reverting 3RR on Template:Kings_and_Dukes_of_Poland, deleting from the list of Polish rulers kings of Poland of the Romanov dynasty, such as Nicholas I of Russia, who was crowned in Warsaw in 1829 with the crown of the Piasts. Provides no rationale for his actions, except "sorry I like them". Needs blocking. Ghirlandajo 07:46, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- I only see Emax listed three times in Vasili IV of Russia today, and nothing earlier since 7 Jan (your time zone may differ). Even if these are all reverts, that's acceptable under the 3RR, which states that four reverts are a blockable offence.-gadfium 09:12, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)

This involves multiple users, but primarily is led by Scott Morrow, author of complaints such as the one below towards User XavierVE's attempts to rectify the malicious edits.
- Removes link of "Corrupted-Justice.net", a website critical to his own. Exaggerates truth of his own website being "silenced" as it is, and always has been, listed as an external link, and has never been "edited out". He has also seen to it that several pro-PJ media articles have been removed from External Links and from within the body of the article.
- Removes several entire paragraphs of positive content, factual information about police involvement, and other information that is non-complimentary to his own personal negative viewpoints on Perverted-Justice.com, totally violating NPOV
- Morrow and his CJ.com staff are the sole authors of complaints against User: XavierVE, below. I believe that anyone fairly analyzing this situation should take into light both complaints towards the edits.
- As a bystander to this fued, I believe that speculative personal information about Perverted-Justice.com's owner should be removed entirely, unless there is proof offered in the piece towards it's truthfulness. Likewise I believe the original author (Shimeru), who had a very unbiased piece and is not decidedly on either side of this debate, should restore the article and possibly even lock it from further editing.
- Sooner than create an organized attempt to edit this Misplaced Pages entry towards any one party, the original author (Shimeru) should come back and create a version to be respected by both parties. If Scott Morrow still feels it is "biased" after that, he and his associates can create their own Misplaced Pages entry to air their own criticisms. Only in this situation may there be objective fairness, a solution you will not see Scott Morrow (below) suggest. Instead he ask that you ban XavierVE, thus rendering the fate of the Misplaced Pages article to people decidedly biased against Perverted-Justice.com with no vocal retort. This, I believe, is inexcusable. Please look into this situation and judge it fairly. (I will likewise report attempts to modify this Vandalism in Progress entry to remove my comments made here)
- XavierVE (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) - IP 67.169.194.181
- Same user as previous problems from January 8 - 67.169.194.181 - Now registered as "XavierVE"
- Continues to remove non-complimentary information about perverted-justice site, completely violating NPOV
- Continuously removes reference to most vocal opponent, corrupted-justice.com from list of critics in "cons" section
- Re-added multiple external links to PJ site after they were removed by Sysop
- Continues to insert personal details (full names, etc) in various locations throughout article in direct violation of Misplaced Pages "No Personal Attacks" rule. ("Negative personal comments" and "threats or actions which expose other Misplaced Pages editors to political, religious or other persecution by government, their employer or any others.")
- I would suggest there is little possibility that this article can remain NPOV, as XavierVE insists on revising whenever he sees something he doesn't like.

- adding vandal remarks to Latency.(not fixed)
- It would have been easier to have fixed them than to have reported it here. When an anon makes only one or a few edits, we consider that they are testing their ability to change pages. The correct action is to revert the change, and leave a polite message on their talk page suggesting that they use the sandbox. The template {{test}} is very suitable for this. Most anons stop when they see the message. We do not call their activities vandalism unless they continue after being asked to stop, or they are particularly nasty or rapid-fire in their edits.-gadfium 23:01, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Has repeatedly reverted my edits, and accused me of being the vandal. His/her latest edit summaries are deliberate attempts to make it appear that I am the vandal. Any quick look at the page history will show what the real vandalism is. He/she has repeatedly removed a fair use screenshot, and other useful info.
- To avoid 3RR, User:Sam999 has apparently created the sock puppet User:Paivand.

His continued bad faith edits, flame-baiting, and insistence that he's "just trying to help" imply that he's not merely a vandal but a troll.
