The Administrators' noticeboard is intended to be a page to quickly alert the administrators to issues that need their attention.

To make a request or statement, create a new section and provide a neutral, precise summary of events with thought-out reasoning, and, if possible, links to any pages with relevant discussions. It is also a good idea to notify any users involved with the request with a link to the section on this page. Make sure to add new sections to the bottom.

Report vandals and sockpuppets at the top of the appropriate section labeled for such reports using {{IP|Username}}, where Username is the name of the user or the IP vandal's IP address.

For reporting similar and unacceptable usernames, report them here instead of on this page. This is done to keep the reports in one place, and because unacceptable usernames can be more subjective (unlike vandal/spam accounts), which may necessitate discussion (which the linked page will be more suited to handle).

Vandal/spam account reports

My lol (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · lol WHOIS) Still continuing to make disruptive edits after being unblocked. Also doing some edit warring. SuperSmashTurtles of the Turtle Tribe 18:06, October 12, 2020 (EDT)

‎50.233.84.101 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) Presumably the same as 76.98.53.175 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS), doing the same "Byleth's inclusion means they were lying about Rex not being able to included" edit war on Rex's page ~ Serena Strawberry (talk) 12:37, October 8, 2020 (EDT)

Funado (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) Vandalizing Smasher:Rayito; has been blocked for vandalizing Smasher:ZanT in the past ~ Serena Strawberry (talk) 10:22, October 8, 2020 (EDT)

76.98.102.194 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) Vandalizing several pages, including a user talk page and a sandbox of mine. SuperSmashTurtles of the Turtle Tribe 20:16, October 7, 2020 (EDT)

Kindred (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) is clearly not here to build an encyclopedia, created an account and then vandalised Juanpi. Black Vulpine of the 🦊Furry Nation🐺. Furries make the internets go! :3 21:25, October 5, 2020 (EDT)

68.118.61.240 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) has vandalized JeJaJeJa’s page by calling him gay. MemeDedede (talk) 17:54, October 5, 2020 (EDT)MemeDedede

So far, the following have made the same bad faith edit adding the Sonic punch meme to his article: 68.116.118.90 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS), 76.108.130.251 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS), 107.77.237.83 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS), Minepunch (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS), 147.226.239.39 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS), 173.79.208.93 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) and 104.243.212.253 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS). Clearly, these people don't plan on stopping, so I think we need to make examples of them by giving them some kind of block. Alex the Weeb 11:30, October 2, 2020 (EDT)

At this point, I think it's a good idea to block IP editing on Sonic's general and SSBU pages until this whole thing dies down. SuperSmashTurtles of the Turtle Tribe 13:36, October 2, 2020 (EDT)

I second this. EDIT: Looking at it, it seems the general Sonic page is protected but his Ultimate page isn't. Awesomelink234, the Super Cool Gamer (talk) 19:11, October 2, 2020 (EDT)

173.79.208.93 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) just did the same thing again... S3AHAWK The Spooky One 16:24, October 2, 2020 (EDT)

To reiterate: these people are very clearly trolling and disrupting the Wiki. Some of them go as far as to brag about doing so on Twitter [1][2][3]. Trolling and disruption has been a blockable offense since before I even joined the Wiki, and it baffles me that we're not blocking any of these users or IPs... Alex the Weeb 19:28, October 2, 2020 (EDT)

68.116.118.90 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) Vandalism, as evidenced by this (you'll have to click on the tweet to see the full thread, because Twitter links are weird). He probably wouldn't hesitate to do something like this again, which at a time like this really isn't what we need. Alex the Weeb 17:45, October 1, 2020 (EDT)

80.195.88.144 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) So this guy's back again...for the 4th time. As usual making nonsense edits and removing content. Alex the Weeb 10:26, September 28, 2020 (EDT)

Genji (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) Repeat of their last offense: edited Rex about Byleth being released later. I'd like to suggest a long term autoconfirm protection of the page. --CanvasK (talk) 17:07, September 26, 2020 (EDT)

76.69.66.140 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) Vandalized Smasher:Matteo. Awesomelink234, the Super Cool Gamer (talk) 01:24, September 23, 2020 (EDT)

Sockpuppet reports

Peter Griffin (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · Griffin WHOIS), Zero Suit (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · Suit WHOIS), and Tanner654837 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS). All three have made their userpage about (as far as I know) fictional Family Guy Smash events. I thought something was up when I saw Peter editing Ness' SSBU page minutes after Tanner did, which was after being warned about excessive userpage edits. --CanvasK (talk) 20:56, October 2, 2020 (EDT)

Navzyx-kun (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) Possible sockpuppet of Avalle001 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS). Seems very strange that a random user who has yet to make any edits would suddenly want to revert a page back to using a file that no longer exists, seeing as how if they were a new user they would almost certainly have no idea what that file is... Alex the Weeb 14:16, September 25, 2020 (EDT)

Von Anton (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · Anton WHOIS) and GundamBarbatos (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS). Both made similar edits to the "Stomp" description of Homing Attack, here and here. --CanvasK (talk) 21:02, September 23, 2020 (EDT)

Edit warring

71.212.219.210 (talk · contribs · logs · block user · block log · WHOIS) Not him again. I would also would consider this circumventing a block. S3AHAWK (talk) 16:26, September 12, 2020 (EDT)

I'd say it's high time for a range block. Omegα Toαd 20:39, September 12, 2020 (EDT)

Agree, what I'm meaning by circumventing a block, was the same guy got blocked for 3 months using a different IP in the same range. S3AHAWK (talk) 20:43, September 12, 2020 (EDT)

Same guy was range blocked 6 times on MarioWiki for the same bloat edits they keep doing here. I would suggest range blocking but allow account creation because it appears to only be IPs doing this. Omegα Toαd 21:31, September 12, 2020 (EDT)

We've done exactly that before here as well. It looks like we might have to do it again. Black Vulpine of the 🦊Furry Nation🐺. Furries make the internets go! :3 21:33, September 12, 2020 (EDT)
