From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
    Report active, obvious, and persistent vandals and spammers here.
    Shortcut

    Before reporting, read the spam and vandalism pages, as well as the AIV guide. To submit, edit this page and follow the instructions at the top of the "User-reported" section. For other issues, file a request for administrator attention.

    Important!
    1. The edits of the user must be obvious vandalism or obvious spam.
    2. Except for egregious cases, the user must have been given enough warning(s).
    3. The warning(s) must have been given recently and there must be reasonable grounds to believe the user(s) will further disrupt the site in the immediate future.
    4. If you decide that a report should be filed, place the following template at the bottom of the User-reported section:
      • * {{Vandal|Example user or IP}} Your concise reason (e.g. vandalised past 4th warning). ~~~~
    5. Requests for further sanctions against a blocked user (e.g., talk page, e-mail blocks) should be made at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
    6. Reports of sockpuppetry should be made at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations unless the connection between the accounts is obvious and disruption is recent and ongoing.
    This noticeboard can grow and become backlogged. Stale reports are automatically cleared by MDanielsBot after 4–8 hours with no action.

    Issue: Persistent disruptive editing and misrepresentation of sourced content
    The editor has a history of edit warring, disruptive editing, misrepresenting sources across multiple articles, changing words to profanity or otherwise misrepresenting sourced material. Recently, they edited the Megyn Kelly article, replacing a word in a direct quote with a profanity despite the existing source clearly stating the original wording.
    This is not an isolated incident—past warnings and blocks for similar behavior have not deterred them. Given their continued pattern of disruptive editing across multiple pages, I believe administrator intervention is necessary. TimeToFixThis (talk) 10:05, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
