- [nil :Geni] ([[User talk::Geni|talk]] · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) continues longstanding practice of reverting all edits because he finds one sentence or word disagreeable to his point of view. If he wants to revise one sentence or word to maintain his (dubious) perception of NPOV that's fine, but reverting all edits amounts to vandalism. Example can be found here [1]. Propose that Geni be given a warning, since he doesn't seem to be able to understand what he's doing is wrong. --Leifern 12:41, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
- Both of you need to talk this out on the article talk page. Leifern has been using misleading edit summaries and revert warring with Geni. For example, "Cleaned up a bit" is not a good summary for an edit that adds a substantial block of new text. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 14:14, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
- Now you are the one who is dragging in content disputes. My vandalism complaint has nothing to do with the content of the edits - that is reserved for the talk page of the relevant article. But it is vandalism when an editor (and an admin, to boot, who should subscribe to higher standards) reverses a whole set of edits because he disagrees with one element of it. This is a common practice from Geni, and I'll continue to report it as vandalism, because it is. --Leifern 15:48, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

- Chaosfeary (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) Vandalizes the Batman article, then reverts the corrections. Was uncivil on my talk page when confronted. Ereinion 04:11, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

- Dreamer2005 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) This user has a history of link spamming various sexuality-related articles, operates (I believe) anonymously under a number of different IP addresses (below), and has started using misleading edit summaries and removing legitimate external links in order to look earnest and to avoid instant reversion of his/her edits. Other IP addresses used are as follows:
- 65.57.106.46 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log): IP WHOIS -- Level 3 Communications (US) (Might not be the same person, but the spamvertised Web sites and the pattern [including misleading edit summaries] is the same.)
- 65.95.72.245 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log): IP WHOIS -- Bell Canada (Canada)
- 69.157.88.199 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log): IP WHOIS -- Bell Canada (Canada)
- 69.157.90.19 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log): IP WHOIS -- Bell Canada (Canada)
- 69.157.91.250 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log): IP WHOIS -- Bell Canada (Canada)
- His/her focus seems to be the following articles, which is not surprising since the spamvertised Web sites are all porn sites:
- Please note that the reversions on the female ejaculation and pornography articles could look like an edit war, but it's simply not, especially when this user's "contributions" are taken into account. In the case of the female ejaculation article, the legitimate link that he/she keeps removing is clearly not spam; in fact, the description of it as "adult spam" doesn't even make sense. As I say, this person is just removing links in retaliation for having his/her spam reverted.
- Thanks.

- Cooldude1234 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) Repeated vandalism pf User talk:Mike Dillon. Also editing as 68.106.77.76 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log). Mike Dillon 01:16, 4 November 2005 (UTC)
- I've briefly blocked 68.106.77.76 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log), and left another warning at Cooldude1234. I'll block him if he continues. -Willmcw 01:24, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

- Vande (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) Is removing images at a high rate (e.g., Image:Trojan_condom.jpg) and changing a lot of sex-related articles and images to "censor" them. Craig (t|c) 09:53, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
- Not quite as "in progress" as I first thought, but he/she seemed to have been everywhere, including on Commons. Most vandalism cleaned up now, but this person does seem to be on a mission to delete anything he/she deems offensive, including images and articles. --Craig (t|c) 10:37, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
- Wow. Lots of vandalism. Blocked indefinitely. · Katefan0(scribble) 23:42, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
- Lisakins2427 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) Making nonsense edits to Downingtown Area School District in past 3 minutes. Concern is that user is a sockpuppet of 69.242.2.86 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log), which has been doing almost identical vandalisms during same time. - Sensor 02:45, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

- Pretty obvious advertiser. Last edit at 2005-10-30 09:44:25. Hopefully he got the idea. Jdavidb [[talk • contribs]] 18:14, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
- DreamGuy (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) Persistently removes material from Chimera. Refuses to explain removals in general. (Note this is not material I placed on the page, but the contributions of others.) The only explanation he has ever given that Lena Hades must be non-notable since she was on AfD. If true, she has survived. (These may not be vital to the encyclopedia, but they are losses.) (Notification by edit summary of Chimera [3]; but DreamGuy has clearly seen it.)

- That would be a content dispute with an established user. You'll need to go through dispute resolution processes, rather than vandalism handling processes. Jdavidb [[talk • contribs]] 18:11, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
- Tcatron565 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) Keeps adding unneeded track pictures of storms and storm dates to 2005 Atlantic hurricane season unilaterally, without consulting. All regular editors of the article have had to revert all of his edits, but he persists. -- NSLE (Communicate!) <Contribs> 00:29, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
- Looks like he's working in good faith, but doesn't quite understand policies and consensus. There is currently an RFC going on about this user, which will decide how to handle him or bring it up to a higher process. Jdavidb [[talk • contribs]] 18:00, 31 October 2005 (UTC)
