This is a place where users can communicate with administrators, or administrators with one another. You can report vandalism, problematic users, or anything else that needs an administrator's intervention. Do not report child pornography or other potentially illegal content here; e-mail legal-reportswikimedia.org instead. If reporting threatened harm to self or others also email emergencywikimedia.org.
Vandalism []	User problems []	Blocks and protections []	Other []
Report users for clear cases of vandalism. Block requests for any other reason should be reported to the blocks and protections noticeboard.	Report disputes with users that require administrator assistance. Further steps are listed at resolve disputes.	Reports that do not suit the vandalism noticeboard may be reported here. Requests for page protection/unprotection could also be requested here.	Other reports that require administrator assistance which do not fit in any of the previous three noticeboards may be reported here. Requests for history merging or splitting should be filed at COM:HMS.

Reason for reporting: zh:LTA:KAGE. Has been globally locked. Srapoj (talk) 17:18, 7 September 2025 (UTC)

@Srapoj: Hi, Could you please link to the main account on Commons? Thanks, Yann (talk) 17:45, 7 September 2025 (UTC)

@Yann: He has lots of sockpuppets, on enwiki his LTA page is en:LTA/Nipponese Dog Calvero. Here Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Jason Lin was about some photos uploaded by him. Srapoj (talk) 17:56, 7 September 2025 (UTC)

Ah this one.  Done I blocked Special:Contributions/2001:B400:E2F0:AD3F:0:0:0:0/64 for 3 days. Yann (talk) 18:07, 7 September 2025 (UTC)

He seems to exploit the user talk page of his socks (username containing libel about a zhwiki sysop) to post these external links, other examples include Special:Contributions/2001:B400:E2F1:B3E1:817E:C334:95BB:B83E and Special:Contributions/2001:B400:E2F1:66C4:7CB4:2923:AAF7:1D44. Is there local policy that can full-protect the talk page of these sock accounts? Or shall these pages be deleted, as the usernames clearly violate COM:IU? Srapoj (talk) 18:18, 7 September 2025 (UTC)

 Blocked range 2001:B400:E2F1::/48 for 1 month (2nd block). --Achim55 (talk) 18:34, 7 September 2025 (UTC)
