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-reportswikimedia.org instead. If reporting threatened harm to self or others also email emergencywikimedia.org.
Vandalism []	User problems []	Blocks and protections []	Other []
Report users for clear cases of vandalism. Block requests for any other reason should be reported to the blocks and protections noticeboard.	Report disputes with users that require administrator assistance. Further steps are listed at resolve disputes.	Reports that do not suit the vandalism noticeboard may be reported here. Requests for page protection/unprotection could also be requested here.	Other reports that require administrator assistance which do not fit in any of the previous three noticeboards may be reported here. Requests for history merging or splitting should be filed at COM:HMS.

• Reasons for reporting: Vandalism only, after final warning.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 16:27, 29 March 2025 (UTC)

 Done Indef for self-promotion and vandalism. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 16:55, 29 March 2025 (UTC)

@The Squirrel Conspiracy: Thanks!   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 17:50, 29 March 2025 (UTC)

 Done. I declined unblock request. Taivo (talk) 14:08, 30 March 2025 (UTC)

 Done. After vandalizing own talkpage while blocked I reblocked the user without talkpage access. Taivo (talk) 17:11, 31 March 2025 (UTC)

NexKosmo

User: NexKosmo (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) block user
Reason for reporting: Nonsense uploads. Copyvio and duplicate. See en:Special:Contributions/NexKosmo for more evidence of vandalism. Chrisahn (talk) 00:57, 31 March 2025 (UTC)

Two uploads, both copyvios (one NETCOPYVIO, one duplicate with disregard to the rights of the fellow Wikimedian) and one used to vandalise EN-WP (see global contribs) mean that this individual is clearly w:WP:NOTHERE to contribute meaningfully. Grand-Duc (talk) 01:35, 31 March 2025 (UTC)

 Done. I warned the user. Both uploads are deleted. Currently that's enough. Taivo (talk) 17:14, 31 March 2025 (UTC)

As Grand-Duc said, this account looks like its sole purpose is vandalism. On enwiki, the user has been blocked indefinitely. It might make sense to block the account here as well. — Chrisahn (talk) 04:43, 1 April 2025 (UTC)
