Block evasion. Puppeteer was blocked for creating multiple content forks of articles on rap artists with stealth titles, including Тhе Gаmе (rарреr) and List оf dесеаsеd hiр hор аrtists. Two days later, new account Sulla Dogg first tries to edit List of deceased hip hop artists, then reverts his change and resumes cforking with a stealth title at List_оf_dесеаsеd_hiр_hор_artists. In the same minute, he cforks DMX (rapper) at DМХ_(rарреr). A CU may turn up more cforks. Norvoid (talk) 13:07, 22 November 2015 (UTC) Norvoid (talk) 13:07, 22 November 2015 (UTC)

Recreation of Тhе Gаmе (rарреr) (stealth copy of The Game (rapper)).

Btw., shouldn't we simply disallow using non-printing characters in article titles? I suppose that would require a change to the MediaWiki software. Q VVERTYVS (hm?) 13:36, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

 * WerlyDrug has been tagged and blocked indef per behavioral evidence, and I've salted that article title. Disallowing non-printing characters in article titles sounds good to me, but there's nothing I can do about that at the moment. Closing case now. Mark Arsten (talk) 14:36, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
