Advice? Generally my experience in cases like this is to keep your cool, give him some rope and let him hang himself. I'll look at this a little more. Bucketsofg✐ 17:34, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Sounds like a good idea. Cheers --JonAyling 17:37, 13 August 2006 (UTC)


 * The other thing is to be methodical about giving them warnings. Choose the appropriate template from Template:TestTemplates and put one on their page for each problematic post, escalating each time. (E.g., go , then  , etc.).  Once they vandalize after the final warning , report them at WP:AIV.  An admin will look to see they've been sufficiently warned, see one vandalism after the warning, and block them on the spot. With repeat offenders it's ok to start further up the chain.  This might mean 5 minutes of headaches instead of hours and hours.  Bucketsofg✐ 18:34, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Please contact the WMF office. Or me directly. By email please, not my userpage. Thanks!--Brad Patrick 21:15, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
