Steward requests/Global

Due to persistent vandalism and disruption on this page, this page is currently semi-protected indefinitely. Globally blocked or locked users should appeal to stewardswikimediaorg or UTRS. If your account was locked with a reason "Compromised account", please contact cawikimediaorg.

Please be sure to follow the instructions below: Your request might be rejected if you don't follow the instructions. Please also review Global blocking . Global blocks don't affect Meta-Wiki, so if your IP address or account is blocked, you can still appeal here. IP addresses or accounts that cause disruption on Meta should be reported at Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat instead of here so that they can be blocked locally. Please describe the kind of cross wiki abusive activity you see from the IP or account. Saying an IP or account is a long term abuser is not helpful, but saying "IP vandalizes at ban.wikipedia, no.wikipedia and vi.wikipedia" is. This is especially important for range blocks. If you do not provide enough details, your request might be declined. Instructions for making a request Before requesting, make sure that: You know the IP address(es) or accounts you wish to have globally blocked or unblocked. For blocks, the global blocking criteria are met. For unblocks, your request addresses the original reason for blocking the IP or account, if any. To make a request for the address(es) or account(s) to be blocked or unblocked Copy the template below to the bottom of this section and explain why the address(es) or account(s) should be blocked/unblocked. === Global block/unblock for [[Special:Contributions/Some IP address or account|Some IP address or account]] === {{Status}} <!-- Do not remove this template --> * {{Luxotool|IP address}} Description, evidence, diffs, etc. --~~~~ When requesting that your IP be unblocked, note that stewards need to know your IP address to even consider a request. To find your IP, please visit https://www.whatismyip.com/ You are not required to disclose your IP in public - you may make requests privately to any steward on IRC or by email at: stewardswikimediaorg

Long-term abuse. Ternera (talk) 15:21, 23 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Ternera, not sure if a global block is necessary here. It's only edited simplewiki where I've already blocked the IP. He's gone onto another one already and not likely to return to that one. --Ferien (talk) 15:23, 23 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Per above I'll keep this open for a while, blocking in case of further edits and otherwise closing. Correctly they usually switch IPs after being blocked on one (and usually doesn't return to an IP after having thrown it away). EPIC (talk) 15:28, 23 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Be sure to follow the instructions below: Your request might be rejected if it doesn't include the necessary information. Warning! This page is publicly viewable. If the account name is grossly insulting or contains personal information please contact a steward privately in #wikimedia-stewardsconnect or email your request to the stewards VRT queue at stewards-oversightwikimediaorg (direct wiki interface) but do not post it here. Thanks. Warning! This is not the place to ask for locks based on your opinion that someone is disruptive. Global locks are used exclusively against vandalism and spam, not because of content disputes, not because you think that someone deserves to be globally blocked. In such cases, you should ask for local blocks at appropriate places. If you are globally locked, you should appeal your lock to stewards-appealswikimediaorg. Please describe abusive activity of an account before reporting them here. Since stewards are often not active at projects the reported accounts are, things that seem obvious to you may not be equally obvious to the reviewing steward. Instructions for making a request Before requesting that a global account be (un)locked, please be sure that: You have evidence of cross-wiki disruption from the account(s). You can show that it is not feasible to use local-only blocks or other measures like page protection to combat the disruption. You have considered making the request in #wikimedia-stewardsconnect, especially for account names which will be hidden, or for urgent requests. To make a request for an account to be locked or unlocked Copy one of the codes below to the bottom of this section and explain why the account(s) should be locked/unlocked. === Global lock/unlock for Foo === {{status}} <!-- do not remove this template --> * {{LockHide|username}} * {{LockHide|username|hidename=1}} <!-- if you do not want the name to be visible on this page --> *...

This one I am more unsure about. This user is still actively editing several other wikis and although I agree that the editing patterns are somewhat similar, this just seems to be a regular zhwiki user, the username doesn't match anything I've seen from CCTP and the CU data is totally different from what ChanComThemPho uses. Please ask for a check to be performed at viwiki first, then we can potentially consider a lock. EPIC (talk) 06:54, 25 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

User:EPIC ChanComThemPho has had 4 socks with Chinese characters before. It's weird that a Chinese user has deep knowledge of different locations in Vietnam. If his IPs are from China, it's possible that ChanComThemPho uses proxy/VPN (it has happened many times before). ChanComThemPho is known to know a bit of Chinese (Zh-2 probably). I checked his edits in Zh Wikipedia. They're all minor edits, templates and stubs (nothing substantial). 亚洲之星 definitely knows Vietnamese language pretty well (proof). This article in Vietnamese Wikipedia has no source, so that means he can read a Vietnamese source and paraphrased it. Nguyentrongphu (talk) 10:05, 25 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks. I also agree that the patterns somewhat match, but yes, IPs are completely different from what ChanComTemPho has used in the past (CCTP usually uses Viettel while the CU data from this user geotraced to Japan). So, yes, it could potentially be them, but from a technical point of view it's currently unclear.

I now also noticed that the CU data at viwiki is already expired at this point so you can ignore my comments about that. EPIC (talk) 10:17, 25 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

User:EPIC Proof 2, the article uses 2 Vietnamese sources that are not in Vietnamese Wikipedia. 亚洲之星 is definitely fluent in Vietnamese. ChanComThemPho is known to use proxy/VPN in many different countries before (no surprise here). The behavior correlation is very strong (I'm 90% certain that it's him). I'm blocking this user based on DUCK test. I don't care if 亚洲之星 is global locked or not. This request can be considered done here. Thanks! Nguyentrongphu (talk) 10:25, 25 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yep, I understand that viwiki blocked this user locally (and I think it is potentially justified), the main reason why I did not globally lock here was due to the uncertainties. But okay, I will leave this request as it is now. EPIC (talk) 10:33, 25 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
