User: PickUp-10026444-413 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log)
Reason for reporting: Apparently a sockpuppet (Category:Sockpuppets of Saranphat chaiphet) created for block evasion, because (1) the user uploaded copyvio files related to Nan province, which are exactly the same files as those uploaded by the socks in the mentioned category, and (2) the username is similar to those in the mentioned category, such as PickUp1994 (talk · contribs), PickUp412 (talk · contribs), Pickup9386 (talk · contribs), PickUp-Max2024 (talk · contribs), etc, which indicates their relationship.

Done. Indefinite block. Taivo (talk) 10:59, 29 March 2026 (UTC)
Dharshan Karthikeyan - continuing uploads of obvious copyright violations after final warning
[edit]Dharshan Karthikeyan (talk · contribs) has been uploading images of Indian television show title screens which have all been deleted. I've left them warnings here and a message on their en wiki talk page as well. They've continued today, uploading the same title screen image that's been deleted three times already. See Special:Log/Dharshan_Karthikeyan. Ravensfire (talk) 12:34, 31 March 2026 (UTC)
- Done Blocked for a week, last file deleted. Yann (talk) 12:41, 31 March 2026 (UTC)
Request autoconfirmed protection for File:Primäres System.png
[edit]
Although the volume isn't high, most of the edits on this image are either from vandalism or reverting vandalism. Likely a target due to its use in Category:Systems. Please let me know if this is below the threshold of protection so I can keep future requests in mind. Thanks, --Stux (talk) 22:35, 31 March 2026 (UTC)
- Done. 3 years autopatroller-level protection. Semi-protection was not enough, because some vandals were old users with a lot of edits (now indefinitely blocked anyway). Taivo (talk) 09:18, 1 April 2026 (UTC)
User: GOATlegroscaca (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log)
Reason for reporting: Used for vandalism on fr-wiki, offensive name Nicolas22g (talk) 18:18, 1 April 2026 (UTC)
- Done. I blocked the user indefinitely, the only upload is deleted. Taivo (talk) 09:10, 2 April 2026 (UTC)
Statistics about Italian places (semi-protection)
[edit]- Request: Allow only template editors and administrators for actions edit, move or rename.
- What: The all titles in Category:Datasets with Italy.
- Why: It's multi-wiki content using on more another pages.
- Why #2: Look the history of Data:Italian_municipality_populations.tab and the user was notificed (in Slovak language, he understand): User_talk:GreenWolfyVillager#Data:Italian_municipality_populations.tab.
Dušan Kreheľ (talk) 22:01, 1 April 2026 (UTC)
- Done. Full protection is not needed. Auropatroller-protection is enough. Taivo (talk) 09:23, 2 April 2026 (UTC)
