@Yamla Hi, is there a way you can have that page protected? Because it looks like Dandielayla is back under an IP putting up the DOB with crappy sources. Kcj5062 (talk) 22:07, 9 October 2023 (UTC)

I blocked the IP address. Let me know if they come back with a different address or account and I'll protect the page itself. --Yamla (talk) 10:09, 10 October 2023 (UTC)

Info

Hey there, for my unblock request. I understood your first sentence, but the second one I don't. What do you mean by, "Second, your absolutely ludicrous claim that your block was unconstitutional." ? TheAlienMan2002 (talk) 14:01, 10 October 2023 (UTC)

You said, "I hold the believe that my namespace was an unconstitutional block". This is utter nonsense. There's nothing unconstitutional about your block and it severely harms your request by making such an obviously false claim. --Yamla (talk) 14:26, 10 October 2023 (UTC)

Query

Hello, Yamla,

Dan K. Morhaim was a hotbed of editing by new editors in late September, several of whom were subsequently blocked and at least one of which, User:LEWISSIT, was identified as a sockpuppet. These brand new editors were thoughtful enough to leave edit summaries which is not a habit I come across much with newbie editors. I've looked over this article and can not find anything newsworthy that has happened over the past few months that would suddenly be drawing attention to this subject's article.

I'm hoping you can use your spidey sense and see if you can see anything suspicious going on with this article. I realize that checkusing can't be used for "fishing" but this sudden rise of editing on this article by new accounts seems beyond coincidental and, definitely, "fishy". Thank you. Liz ^{Read!

@Liz: yeah, it's weird. There's almost certainly some paid editing going on (for example, Sagar Samaya Digital), but on the other hand, editors such as Dandielayla appear to simply be... not all that constructive. I'm at a bit of a loss as to why anyone cares about that particular article. I mean, no offense to Morhaim who I'm sure is great and certainly worthy of an article, but he doesn't appear to have done anything Wikipedia-notable for several years. What are your thoughts? I'm not quite sure what to suggest here. --Yamla (talk) 22:36, 11 October 2023 (UTC)

User:Ilovejames5

User:Ilovejames5, who you checkuserblocked, is back editing under a whole series of IP addresses (or else someone claims to be him and deserves to be blocked for impersonation and time wasting). See the recent history of User talk:Example6 and some of the other User:Example(number) talkpages. Fram (talk) 19:12, 12 October 2023 (UTC)

Well, I can't comment on IP addresses, but you are correct, the anonymous editor is claiming to be the blocked user, Example6 so that alone is enough to block. It's possible they are lying and could be a different user, I suppose, but either way, time to shut it down. I'll hand out some blocks. --Yamla (talk) 20:31, 12 October 2023 (UTC)

So, these ranges belong to a Greek cell network (based on public whois information), so not much point blocking. I've protected the user talk page, though. WP:UTRS is available for Ilovejames5, though not until 2024-03-19. I think that wraps it up, not much more I can do (or say :) ). --Yamla (talk) 20:39, 12 October 2023 (UTC)

User:Mehedi wikibio

Hello, Yamla,

If you look at deleted edits to the constantly recreated article Draft:S M Jahid Hasan, you'll see the contributions of several now-blocked editors. I think that this editor, whose unblock request you declined, is not only guilty of self-promotion but also block evasion (the most recently blocked account is User:Madian wiki). Should I open an SPI or there is already one that exists? I've now protected the deleted draft article. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 02:51, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

Looking at S M Jahid Hasan, which is now fully protected, it looks like User:S M Jahid Hasan1971 was the original account that started this promotional writing. Of course, the rest of the accounts could be paid editors, not sockpuppets. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 03:00, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

Rude comments at ANI

How dare you! I bet you are having a fun life sitting on this horrible website all day, telling other people how to live their lives. Grandmaster has randomly attacked me for no reason, and he must pay for his crimes. Jargo Nautilus (talk) 09:48, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
