Want to Help Prevent Future Vandalism

I've been noticing that a user (or group of users) has been spamming links into various articles on MMORPGs for their [www.igsky.com website]. It hasn't been constant, but the intermittent insertion of the advertisement into the external links section is annoying and probably illegal in terms of the games' companies' user agreement. I recently assisted in getting an actual article for the website deleted, but after seeing the MascotGuy page, I realized that a similar action can be taken against this Igsky (talk · contribs). As of now, he's only used sockpuppet IPs in various articles, that have been blocked before. The situation hasn't occured within a couple of weeks, but such an extended line of vandalizations should require some action against him. Ryulong 04:29, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ahh, quick look with your link fix of the user's contributions. Don't sweat, a good editor can remove those links and move on. The user hasn't made an edit since May 5. Teke 04:40, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It's not just that he hasn't made an edit since May 5. It's just that there have also been a truckload of IP address users that have done the same thing as him. You can go into the history of any MMORPG's article and find an edit to the External Links section that inserts a link to the Igsky website. The user just made an account to further advertise the site, which ended up as the site that I put on the AfD. I know that there will be further edits to the articles that will be in the same vein. I will put something up on the Noticeboard, to see if anything could possibly be done. Ryulong 04:46, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Gotcha, talk to me anytime you need. Teke 05:03, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hi there. What you seem to be describing is disruptive editing, which is not vandalism. Post your complaint on the Administrator's Noticeboard on Incidents if you want real action taken. As advice, I'd say just remove the links per Wikipedia's Spam Policy. Be bold in editing! Contanct me if you need any other help! Teke 04:35, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Xiaolin Showdown "Season 4"

What the hell is up with everyone and their mother adding this "Lord Serpaneros" or whatever he is called to every single Xiaolin Showdown article? Ryulong 20:12, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • The same thing as people adding their own made up Wu to and Wu combos to the articles. For better or worse, XS inspires creativity. Personaly, I think there will be a season 4 to bring the total number of episodes up to 65, which is a fairly standard number for syndication purposes, but they're waiting to see if need to make 13 episodes or 10 or 11 plus an OVA-style movie.

I'd been leaving Wonderhawk alone because he seemed to be behaving, but I'll look over his contributions. Thanks. —tregoweth (talk) 15:29, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reversion etiquette

Please do not revert pages without stating which version you're reverting to. 65.115.176.43 20:13, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Instead of "rv," type "rv 8:24 7 Jun version" or "rv last version by username," something that lets others identify what version it is. Thanks. 65.115.176.43 20:18, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Xiaolin Showdown IP spam vandals

List for my own uses, in case the spamming continues. Ryulong 22:15, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Requesting assistance in what to do next

I've been monitoring the article Xiaolin Showdown, and it appears that the only edits from users in this range of IP addresses is constantly putting external links into the External Links section that have been discussed on the talk page and in edit summaries to be deleterious to the article. Two of them are non-notable fan pages, and a third is an MSN Users Roleplaying Group for the TV show. I've been tagging the IPs' talk pages with {{spam}} templates, increasing in warning level with each time I notice the IP range edits the links into the article. I don't know how to list these for administrative review. Ryulong 01:55, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'll look into it. --Pilot|guy 01:57, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Oh, and I've realized that the IP addresses are AOL IPs (I have done WHOISes on them), but I don't think that should be a factor when the only edits from users in this IP range are those links into the external links section. Ryulong 01:58, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Ryulong. I'm an admin and am now watching Xiaolin Showdown. I will warn/block IP's that continue with the link spam. In the mean time please continue to warn the IP's, explaining that their efforts are fruitless as we can easily remove their spam.--Commander Keane 02:05, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think that the warnings are doing any good. The IP address changes each day (sometimes twice in a day, one time it was many edits to one IP), so I don't think the message is being reached. This is why I want help with this, as it's a long-term link spamming abuse. Ryulong 02:08, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I haven't noticed any spam edits yet (since the last one a few hours ago), but if the problem continues as you say I might semi-protect the article for a while, to prevent all IP's from editing the article. The problem is just the one article that you know of?--Commander Keane 03:50, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This is one of two articles that I've been keeping two separate sets of non-notable external links out of. The other article now isn't as bad, though, because I think I got through to the editor (who registered). I'm just watching these IP addresses because they're all from the same range and they all are essentially the same edits (another external link was added to the repetoire once it was deemed that it, too, wasn't notable enough for the list, either, but it's still the same). And by non-notability, I mean badly-constructed fansites (as well as the RPG site). Ryulong 04:07, 14 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I did not blank the shen gong wu page out.... I think somethings wrong here.— Preceding unsigned comment added by SerpentsTail (talkcontribs)

Someone using your username proceeded to blank the entire page for Known Shen Gong Wu, replaced it with "No", copied it over to Talk:Known Shen Gong Wu, and then again, over to your user page. Ryulong 03:25, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry if this was all your younger brother's doing, however, I think you should deal whoever was responsible soon. Ryulong 03:29, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I just removed wrong information. Triassic is not a Ranger, is a power up.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 200.232.156.174 (talkcontribs) .

If you think like that, every power up that have a new zord should be there too. Triassic is a power up with a fancy name, nothing else. The series itself consider it just a power enhancement, as in both crossovers Conner appeared, it was put side-by-side with the red ranger of each team, even though the other team had more rangers than de dino thunder team. when crossing with SPD, triassic was paired with Jack Battlizer in cyber mode. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 200.232.156.174 (talkcontribs) .
I remember that a mention existed. I fought against it for some time. When I logged and saw it away, I thought some reason got into people´s mind and you realised that Triassic is just a power up with a fancy name, and not a independent ranger (and yes, his powers are dependent of the red ranger power, not stand alone). And Im not signing my comments because I´m away of my computer and, for some reason, I can´t log with my username. But if it´s so important I´ll sign anyway: 200.232.156.174 01:54, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
