This is a place where users can communicate with administrators, or administrators with one another. You can report vandalism, problematic users, or anything else that needs an administrator's intervention. Do not report child pornography or other potentially illegal content here; e-mail legal-reports@wikimedia.org instead. If reporting threatened harm to self or others also email emergency@wikimedia.org.

    There is no need for a vandalism block. Indeed:
    • As far as I can tell, you never could have seen any of their recent edits, so you couldn't know whether it was "vandalism only" or not.
    • I wouldn't call their edits vandalism at all.
    • The edits that were hidden were listed in the public deletion logs as being hidden for "non-public identifying or personal information".
    • Nevertheless, you warned the user to stop vandalizing.
    • The edits were reverted and hidden by an admin within 5 minutes. The admin could have issued a block if one was warranted, but did not.
    All that being said, it does look to be a p2p proxy, so I gave it a short soft-block for that reason. —‍Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 22:35, 20 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
