Had uploaded countless copyright photos and tagged it as fairuse, and even after asking him/her not to revert it until the issue was discussed in Wikipedia, s/he refuses to accept it as copyvios. Is impeding me from tagging any further and I'm not interested in any further reverting. Pl. stop this obsessed user. Idleguy 10:41, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Idleguy, that isn't vandalism. She and you have a dispute about copyright, but it is inappropriate for you to list her as a vandal here. Take your dispute to Possibly unfree images where it belongs. (Copyright debate removed - it's in the history, if anyone wants to see it.) – Quadell (talk) 11:29, 18 October 2005 (UTC)


 * - Redwolf24 blocked him. He then posted one of the most hateful posts you will ever see, even threatening the existence of Wikipedia. . Now he's using sockpuppetes. Edith mykok and Edith mynok are 2 of them. I blocked her. I posting this here because I have a feeling he's going to use a bunch of them over the next 24 hours. Pretty certain the Qwerty's were him as well. So please watch for this at least for tonight. In the past, he's used an IP bank starting with 68. I just blocked a very obvious sockpuppet of his. -- 01:11, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Continues to vandalize my talk page by adding irate diatribe, especially after I had explicitly warned them not to. After I deleted their additions they reverted my talk page and insolently restored them. <font color="#6B6E85">Ereinion 17:24, 20 October 2005 (UTC)

He hasn't provided real copyright information and has been warned in his personal page. --Ecemaml 15:47, 20 October 2005 (UTC). Five times right now. --Ecemaml 14:56, 22 October 2005 (UTC)

 * . Has reverted the addition of a new album link on the A Bigger Bang page three times, undoing perfectly valid improvements to the factuality of the album chronology and insists I have removed a link that I am unaware of. Monicasdude spends much of his time undoing my work, due to personal dislike rather than for the actual benefit of any articles.  He is very close to a 3RR violation due to his persistent reverting.  This user is also the recipient of an RfC page:, which may prove an interesting read, as many users have endorsed its claims.  BGC 21:58, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Malicious report, obvious retaliation/spite. Bringing a listing into compliance with WP:ALBUM is not vandalism; guidelines call for chronology links to end with "latest" album, without link to upcoming releases. Bulk of challenged edit removed obvious NPOV violation, presenting editor's opinion of musical merits of album as though they were factual. EOD Monicasdude 22:24, 19 October 2005 (UTC)


 * , .  Users, as part of long-running edit disputes, are deliberately reverting undisputed corrections to Bob Dylan: Live 1966 in an attempt to provoke 3RR violation.

 * As anyone will read, no vandalism has been committed by either JDG or myself. Perhaps a look here may shed some light on Monicadude's working habits on Wikipedia: .  In addition, if anyone cares to investigate, Monicasdude has a history of stalking users - of which I am one - and vandalously reverting their work.  BGC 20:38, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Vandalism is "any addition, deletion, or change to content made in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of the encyclopedia." You are tag-team deleting material whose accuracy and appropriateness for inclusion. That meets the definition of vandalism. Your reference to a spurious RfC and fabricated claim of stalking simply demonstrate your bad faith. Monicasdude 20:41, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Your well-earned and justified RfC (as endorsed by many users), in addition to your edit history, demonstrates the meaning of "bad faith". BGC 21:03, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * That's what you said about Mel Etitis, too. You consistently respond to disagreement with personal attacks and claims of bad faith editing, without ever addressing substance. And that is paradigmatic bad faith behavior here. Monicasdude 21:19, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * What personal attacks? I'm just stating facts.  Facts that are supported by both of your RfC pages.  BGC 21:32, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I will consider any further characterization of my edits as "vandalism" to be a form of "wiki-libel" and will bring "wiki-charges" against Monicasdude accordingly. Quite simply, Monicasdude has severe online behavior problems that have resulted in many dozens of wasted hours for responsible contributors dealing with the idle disputes he creates with his excessive reversions and peter-and-the-wolf cries of "vandalism" and "personal attacks" when editors are in fact going about the business of building a high-quality reference work. The RfC on him was far from spurious and was endorsed by many editors-in-good-standing. Those same editors will be ready to endorse the upcoming RfAr, also richly earned by this troublemaker JDG 23:04, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Vandalism is "any addition, deletion, or change to content made in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of the encyclopedia." Your deliberate deletion of accurate, pertinent, well-sourced information and in some cases substitution of NPOV-violation opinions and original, subjectively framed research in announced defiance of applicable policy is vandalism. And your long run of personal abuse is tiresome. Monicasdude 15:36, 20 October 2005 (UTC)

 * In addition to disrupting Wikipedia with his spurious AFD nominations, he has vandalized Jascha Heifetz,, so I blocked him for 24 hours. If he persists, I'm blocking him for longer. --Angr/undefined 21:55, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
 * He returned and vandalized my talk page, so I blocked him for 48 hours this time. --Angr/undefined 16:16, 14 October 2005 (UTC)


 * is at it again. And now he is placing comments posted on his talk page onto my talk page. Please block him for at least 24 hours. This is really ridiculous. is my original post.  is him removing it without a comment. And finally,  is him adding it to my talk page. The last 2 are blatant violations of guidelines. Please block him for at least 24 hours. Otherwise, this is just going to continue. Requests_for_arbitration/BigDaddy777/Evidence are lots more examples if you want them...and a few are since he was blocked last time for this, which was all of 4-5 days ago.

 * - He was blocked earlier for altering comments on talk pages for not completely removing comments. Instead, he kept the signature and changed the comment into something like "Stalker". He was unblocked. But now apparently, he's created an "instant delete" list and he again altered comments . Please reblock him. Apparently, he hasn't learned his lesson yet.--Woohookitty 04:51, 5 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I for one am well aware of it, as I am one of the victims. He's already in arbitration, he's showing remarkable restraint in that he's currently unblocked and yet only editing his talk page, and the consensus on WP:AN was that he could do what he wanted with his talk page as long as he didn't leave comments misattributed. Jdavidb (talk) 18:26, 5 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Well that's gone out the door since you posted this. Just look at his attacks on Katefan0 just tonight. 24 hour block please. --Woohookitty 09:54, 8 October 2005 (UTC)


 * IS he currently unblocked? According to this page, his IP address is blocked until 3:14, 6 Oct.  If that's true, he's not showing "remarkable restraint" at all.  But I could be misreading this, Jdavidb.  I assume, as an admin, you have a better method of determining whether he's unblocked.  Thanks. Eleemosynary 19:00, 5 October 2005 (UTC)


 * I'm a new admin, so I'm a little uncertain. But clicking on the "block log" link above (my thanks for someone providing the vandalism template for BigDaddy777, as it was very helpful when I wanted to look at that earlier, anyway), I see two blocks: one from Fvw at 2005-10-03 15:51:57 (my time, I think) which was for 24 hours, and one from CesarB which CesarB himself unblocked at 2005-10-04 22:42:07.  As near as I can tell, that does mean he really is unblocked.  I'm honestly shocked that he's stuck to touching his talk page. Jdavidb (talk) 19:09, 5 October 2005 (UTC)


 * OTOH, his IP may be blocked. But my understanding of that (possibly, maybe even probably faulty) is that we deliberately allow unblocked accounts to post from blocked IPs so, for example, we can tell users who share an IP with a troublesome user that they can just log in to get around it.  Feel free to correct me; I want to know.  BTW, we've probably gone beyond the purpose of WP:VIP, here. Jdavidb (talk) 19:13, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

RU Low

 * Has been editing pages to say that people such as Beethoven, Socrates, etc. were actually black, based on facial characteristics (i.e. Socrates's flat nose). Provides no professional references, so this can be considered original research.  Edits previous user's comments on talk pages (see Talk:Septimius Severus).  Has been warned multiple times.  Please at least watch this user, he seems to be a borderline troll.  FranksValli 22:59, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
 * He's now confining it to talk pages, so continue discussing and enter dispute resolution if he starts edit warring. Jdavidb (talk) 20:42, 25 October 2005 (UTC)


 * (AKA Mirmo) As described below. Ignored final warning (tag removal) on 17 Oct, as he's still removing the AfD tags (19 Oct version, delayed inclusion here due to seeking advice on whether removal was justified- it wasn't). Fourohfour 11:36, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I'd agree with Fourohfour here; user has already been blocked once for removing AfD tag (see block log), but did it again even after a warning. That warrants another block, I'd say. MCB 17:48, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Looks like the Afd issue has stopped. Current edits are in areas I know nothing about, so let me know if they are productive or vandalistic.  Will block on site if vandalism occurs again. Jdavidb (talk) 13:16, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

 * I wanted to ask Doc Glasgow something, so went to his user page. Big surprise. To cut a moderately long story short, I quickly realized that the person I'd had in mind was instead Doc glasgow (lowercase g). Doc Glasgow (uppercase g) was clearly created to mislead, and hasn't been used for any constructive purpose. It should surely be deleted and (if possible) disabled. (Vandalism is not in progress right now, and I've a strong feeling that this is not the right place to make this suggestion; sorry, I can't now think of anywhere better.)

 * Keeps removing catagories based on personal religious views, and is generally inserting bias into the wiki by doing so. 134.161.138.166 16:40, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
 * It has already been decided by consensus, that categorising articles on Scripture as "mythology" reflects an uncommon pov and is also highly ambiguous. The agreement was to use alternative cats, several of which have now been created. See CategoryTalk:Christian mythology. This anon sock keeps putting them back in "mythology" on his insistence, has already broken 3rr at Tower of Babel and yet he calls me the vandal! Codex Sinaiticus 16:43, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
 * You insist on removing correct catagories based on your personal bias. That is vandalism. You claim that these articles are "alternativly" catagorized, but I fail to see how an article catagorized ONLY as "jesu" is alternativly catagorized to "christian mythology". That is exactly the OPPOSITE bias you are spewing by removing the catagories. Go away, vandal.
 * Note: While calling me a vandal ;o), anon has now gone on to make +3RR reverts in the articles Resurrection of Jesus and Miracles of Jesus by classing them as "mythology" according to his pov. We have already discussed every aspect of this before in the Christian mythology Category Talk page.  From the abundance of personal attacks from this anon, I suspect he is User:Festival of Souls, the main proponent of insisting these be called "mythology" by the wikipedia. Codex Sinaiticus 17:14, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Note: while vandalizing the above articles Codex Sina* has been pushing his personal religious beliefs on wikipedia. He is claiming that Category:jesus is a substitute for Category:Christian mythology. He is claiming that these articles are alternativly categorized, but i see no reference to christian mythology in ANY of the categorizations. He claims i am making personal attacks, which is pure lies, unless saying refusing to allow correct categorization is pov, and insisting christianity have special treatment is bigotry is a personal attack, and not pointing out that his actions are both POV and bigoted. 134.161.138.166 17:21, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

 * -- Not-quite-newbie originally drew my attention by posting nonexistent or obscure pseudo-abbrevs to disambig pages. Appears to be same user as Mirmo!. Overall problem with user behaviour (see talk page for details) is exacerbated by fact he/she/it does not respond to questions/warnings on talk page, so it's hard to tell if they've read and/or are ignoring them. Latest problem is AfD tag removal; they have previously been warned that tag removal is vandalism. Whilst I consider this user's behaviour more annoying than malevolant, they're unwilling to resolve disputes through the normal channels, so I'm not sure what else can be done. - Please see new entry near top.

 * - adding excessive amounts of low-quality, improperly formatted, and non-copyright verified pictures to Michael Jackson-related articles, reverting edits to "Black or White (Michael Jackson song)" with no attempt to respond to request to stop doing so. --FuriousFreddy 05:52, 3 October 2005 (UTC)


 * This appears to be more of a content dispute, though it is annoying that the person won't respond apparently. However, this page is for reporting vandalism -- you might have better luck trying to get some of the pages protected at WP:RFP as a way to force the person to start replying to you. At any rate, they've stopped editing for now. &middot; Katefan0(scribble) 16:35, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
