Praxidicae

User Wikieditarab

This user seems to be adding the same comment to a number of user talk pages...

The entry "Bilal Orfali" has major problems, It was updated several times, but one administrator "Praxidicae" has reverted to the older version and is blocking any change. This person is mean and deleted any requests related to this page for no reason. His comments on all inquiries on his talk page are impolite. Can you please help me retrieve the older page and block this use "Praxidicae" from interfering with it?

e.g. [1]

Should these be undone to save the users time looking for a non-existent page? -- Brian R Hunter (talk) 19:48, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

It's an xwiki lta/spammer. Just revert, delete, block. Praxidicae (talk) 19:49, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

It's related to this LTA. Praxidicae (talk) 19:52, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

Thanks, I've added a comment to answer his strange request on each of the talk pages. He has targteed a number of admins (I'm not an admin) so maybe one of them will block if needed. -- Brian R Hunter (talk) 20:00, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

It is generally better to ignore, revert and move on rather than entertaining locked users. Praxidicae (talk) 20:04, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

New sock

Hi, User:Nilaeeo6 has just created a new sock: User:Sports3310. Nehme₁₄₉₉ (talk) 12:51, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I don't want to cause a fight, but edit summaries like these, viloate WP:DENY. Please refrain from making such comments on the summaries, Thank you very much. Tsugaru Let's Talk! :) 🍁 20:45, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

yeah, i know how deny works and he's been trolling me all day to no end. I don't need the lecture. Praxidicae (talk) 20:46, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

One of the problems when a wiki isn't GS-enabled. Sigh. Leaderboard (talk) 20:47, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

I'm not sure whether that would actually help in this situation. A steward is watching and globally blocking the IPs as they edit. He will just move onto another page... --Ferien (talk) 20:50, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

@Ferien: Praxidicae, being a GS, would be able to handle this much better and faster. Plus, stewards are doing this as an emergency - they aren't supposed to in a non-GS wiki. Leaderboard (talk) 20:51, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

If this was out of article space, I'd just quit reverting and wait for a local sysop to show up --Tsugaru Let's Talk! :) 🍁 20:52, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

Firstly, it's indeed article-space; even if it isn't, this is a banned editor and serial harasser that we are talking about. Leaderboard (talk) 20:53, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

WP:DENY says to not have revert wars with them, when you can avoid them, if it's out of article space, it can 100% in most cases, be avoided --Tsugaru Let's Talk! :) 🍁 20:54, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

Considering the fact that many of their vandalism is covert and subtle, ignoring them would cause these edits to stay (I just saw such a case at Wikiquote today). Leaderboard (talk) 20:58, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

This isn't any of our first rodeos, this is a serial abuser who is not only globally locked but globally and foundation banned. Praxidicae (talk) 20:57, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

User:DreamlarT/Umesh Perera

Hi, I'm TTP1233, just for your kind information an editor has nominated for RfD before you request for QD. You can refer it to here. Also you can give your concern over there. So no need to remove RfD tag. If you think it is too necessary to do actions you may request to WP:ANI. I hope you can deal it now as per your way, as I can remember you are an important user in enwiki. Thanks and Best--DRC (User:TTP1233) (talk . e-mail . contrib) 16:27, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

Spam links

Regarding User:Merrylynns, do you think there are more of them around than just that one? Derpdart56 (talk) 19:42, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @Derpdart56: I have seen very similar accounts posting things like that before, with copyright violations and unrelated refs, so I'd say there are definitely more of them around unfortunately. --Ferien (talk) 20:09, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Welp, then let's go hunting. Derpdart56 (talk) 20:10, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Should I open a new report on my reports page? Derpdart56 (talk) 20:11, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

It might help track more of these, so sure. --Ferien (talk) 20:12, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

gimme a minute Derpdart56 (talk) 20:13, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

It's already being dealt with @Operator873 Praxidicae (talk) 20:14, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

OK. Derpdart56 (talk) 20:16, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

┌───────────────────────┘
A lot of these are stale CU wise, but can be insta-blocked via quack and the edits mass-reverted as copyvio/seo spam. Operator873 ^connect 20:19, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

And to be clear, pretty much everything longer than a sentence is a copyvio. Praxidicae (talk) 20:19, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Gotcha. I went ahead and added a report, if we spot any we should add em there. Derpdart56 (talk) 20:21, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

@Operator873 do you think Special:Contributions/Nhdanna and Special:Contributions/Loraline95 are related? Seem to be similar, and there's a copyvio issue as well ([2]) — *Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page 21:35, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

On first look I don't think they're related (don't wanna give away too much) but they should be blocked as spammers. Praxidicae (talk) 21:37, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

@Fehufanga: they don't appear to be related. Can't go into details for BEANS and CU data is stale. Operator873 ^connect 21:46, 1 September 2022 (UTC)

Copyvios

Hello, if you don't mind me asking, where were the copyright violations in this diff copied from? N1TH Music (talk) 11:49, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) N1TH Music, that was a copyvio from [3]. --Ferien (talk) 10:14, 11 September 2022 (UTC)

Spam Links 2: Motor Vehicle Boogaloo

Is Baranov107 related to those previous spammers? Derpdart56 (talk) 18:16, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
