Repeatedly spams San Francisco Bay Area, warned many many times to stop, but continues. I have (admittedly) confronted the user on his website, but issued a legal threat stating the rationale: you do not own Wikipedia. Page was recently unprotected earlier this month and spamming restarted at 28 April. BoL (Talk) 05:33, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * BoL, You may want to have SF Bay Area reprotected temporarily. Geoff Plourde (talk) 06:10, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I'll consider that, but this has been going on for 5 months now, and he only stopped when I had the page semi'd, and the links blacklisted, but I'm not taking it to RPP mainly we lost good anon-contributors over the protection. This has to be settled once and for all, but I'll retract the case when I get the links blacklisted and the page protected. Thanks. BoL (Talk) 01:40, 28 April 2008 (UTC)


 * ✅ although its rather obvious, and as they are dynamic IPs that belong to two large ISPs, rangeblocking would cause a lot of collateral damage. If you don't want to semi-protect the article you'll just have to watch the page, rollback any new linkspam and block the underlying IP for 24 hours or so.
 * All registered accounts have been blocked indefinitely. Moving to completed. Rudget   (Help?) 18:24, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I've been watching it for awhile now, as I live in the region. Apparently confronting him didn't help, so I requested it to be semi'd, but I think we lost lots of constructive edits to the page, that's why I had it unprotected. Thanks again. BoL (Talk) 03:14, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
