For a number of years we had a problem with vandalism/low-quality edits to railroading and children's television articles from a variety of IP addresses clustered in the San Jose, CA area. I did some hard blocks on IP ranges in 2017 in consultation with ; see Special:Diff/758030214. The last one I recall doing was 2600:1700:c460:2140::/64 in June 2019, for one year. The editing pattern of this newish user is enough by itself ( is representative), but creating an account is a new variation (to me) and I'd like to know if there's anything else in the sock drawer.

I remember that,. This user is editing from a mobile phone range in an Asian country. There are no other similar users (registered or not) on the ranges involved, but they are quite active and, given the geographic region involved (where most editing is done on mobile ranges), I would be hesitant to block any IPs or IP ranges. Nonetheless, it seems that this user is being at least mildly disruptive. I see only one warning on their talk page, I'd suggest a strong (level 4) warning now, and blocking if they don't stop messing about. Hope this helps. Risker (talk) 02:22, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
 * It doesn't look like there's anything more to do here from a SPI perspective. The user has received a final warning, and any further disruptive editing can be dealt with through the usual processes. Closing case. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 00:40, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
