For blatant vandalism within the last few hours, please see Administrator intervention against vandalism. This page is for reporting vandalism for which an ongoing response is required. This primarily includes multiple sockpuppets, pages currently being heavily vandalised, users that need to be monitored, open proxies, and vandalism which requires study on the part of an administrator before responding. Accounts that have only been used for vandalism (with no recent activity) should also be reported on this page, so that an administrator can look through their edits. Please make sure to read the first two sections before using this page.

Blocked this entire range (70.197.0.0/16) for one hour to stop persistent removal of the vandalism warning. Antandrus (talk) 18:37, 4 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Pages

This section is for pages that are the targets of persistent vandalism by multiple users (anonymous and/or logged in).

U.S. Highway 1

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Highway_1 some one put dongs on the bottom of the page.

It was a template that got defaced. It lasted only a minute, and if the vandalism is still visible for you, it's an old cache you're seing. Should be fine for everyone soon. Shanes 07:33, 5 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Geraldo Rivera

Placed a stupid remark that Geraldo Rivera went by "Jerry Rivers" --Aranda56 04:41, 5 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Little Bayou

A number of anon vandals.[1] Borisblue 04:31, 5 September 2005 (UTC) This one in particular: 192.133.129.161[reply]

Yep, you've got a persistent vandalism problem. But that's not the only problem with the article; it looks like it needs a lot of work. It's not even very clear just what it's about; apparently a movie, but IMDB has no entry for it. *Dan* 05:04, September 5, 2005 (UTC)

User talk:Arwel Parry

See User talk:205.188.116.73 continual vandalism of this page. Please block indefinately. Jooler 18:01, 4 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Great Depression in the United States

I don't really understand how to revet pages. Could someone fix it for me? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.4.111.2 (talk • contribs) 03:44, 4 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Kanye West

IP Address continually vandalizing in the past few minutes: 24.33.151.62

Article is repeatedly vandalized with racist comments, slurs, and other nonsense. Other users and I have reverted vandalism several times today. Psy guy (talk) 22:37, 3 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Jack Thompson (attorney)

Many anonymous users post insults or nonsense. Article is reverted at least once a day. Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 21:41, 2005 September 3 (UTC)

List of Nintendo Revolution games

Multiple anonymous users repeatedly add bogus entries like "Mario: Pimpin' Time". I'm guessing somebody linked here from GameFAQs. Nifboy 19:35, 3 September 2005 (UTC) Multiple users from the Gamefaqs message boards are constantly making vulgar posts.[reply]

I'm sorry, as a relativly new user I had difficulty understanding that user:mongo wasn't violating any of those with this little comment "I CAN contact AOL and they CAN track your IP based on your posts and they CAN remove your memebership, and if you do something really stupid, an easy task for you I'm sure, maybe you can spend a few nights in a jail with the butt pirates..." I guess this is just user:mongo's way of making new people feel welcome, by threatening them with sodomy--172.156.178.23 05:51, 3 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
You also might want to check out Erwin_Walsh (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), but socks are neither here nor there, as they seem to have their own section--172.156.178.23 05:55, 3 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
He'll probably get busted for violating 3RR himself. But please, stop the nonsense and stop the personal attacks. --Titoxd 06:04, 3 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I doubt very much that anything would ever happen to mongo, either way, I don't much care.. good luck dealing with Walsh and the 8x.x.x.x anons--172.156.178.23 06:44, 3 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
You provided an unprovoked personal attack here right after vandalizing this touchy subject matter of all things and you expect civility from me. Sure, that's likely.--MONGO 08:05, September 3, 2005 (UTC)
Why would I expect civility from you? I would expect trolling and petty vandalism from you, and behold.. to be fair I would have expected it from one of your sockpuppets, not you, but it looks like you've been at it for a while --172.156.178.23 14:10, 3 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I don't use sockpuppets, and the other comment isn't vandalism in any twisted vision you may have as a definition, nor is it a personal attack...is was in response to a real troll insulting the U.S. in the Hurricane Katrina articles talk page...bye.--MONGO 19:22, September 3, 2005 (UTC)

  • 210.11.188.30 (talk • contribs • block) Adds bizarre and offensive text to various articles, usually involving a friend's name and some obscene phrase; moderators keep having to revert. Has at least 40 edits to the address, and so far as I can tell all have been rubbish... a repeat vandal. I'm asking for at least a block here, maybe even a ban. -- Davis21Wylie 12:17, 5 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  • 4.152.165.245 (talk • contribs • block) keeps adding "She is also a former WWE Tag Team Champion along with Tina Fey." and "She is also a former WWE Heavyweight Champion and Tag Team Champion along with Amy Poehler." to their respective pages. Along with "*Chicken Fries RULE!", "*Matt thinks Tina Fey is the greatest WWE Champion ever, and laughs at all her jokes", and "*"You don't like Chicken Fries? Whazzup wit dat?""

Possible Sockpuppets

What is this section for? Is this not vandalism in itself - a sockpuppets section in a serious article--Importancenn 13:50, 4 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
