@Igor Kercsa: Hi, I've deleted the pages created by the vandal; as the IP edited only during 40 minutes yesterday in my opinion no other actions are appropriate at this moment.--Syum90 (talk) 07:07, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
@Syum90: Thank You.--Igor Kercsa (talk) 07:14, 5 July 2017 (UTC)

Need admin help at Mongolia's Wikipedia

Hello, In Mongolia's Wikipedia we have no admin help in past 2 days. We have certain edit war and vandaliser's rampant action problem. One serious vandaliser who constantly changes his IP is inserting multiple copyright infringed articles and alongside from different IPs vandalise other articles. Can you or other professionals deal with this problem?? His most vandalism practicer IP is 66.181.160.45 the last few digits constantly changes. his more camouflaging kind of IP is this : 203.91.115.40 usually last few digits changes every day. another camouflaging IP: 112.72.11.111 (last digits changes often) I hope you have some ways to stop this sophisticated kind of vandalism.

The problem is ongoing here: https://mn.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A2%D1%83%D1%81%D0%B3%D0%B0%D0%B9:RecentChanges Orgio89 (talk) 06:11, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
His vandalism acts can be clearly seen here that Mongolia's only current active admin Zorigt tried to fight with his vandalism multiple times in this article history you can clearly see: https://mn.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%D0%A1%D0%B0%D0%B9%D0%BD%D1%85%D2%AF%D2%AF%D0%B3%D0%B8%D0%B9%D0%BD_%D0%93%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B1%D0%B0%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%B0%D1%80&action=history Orgio89 (talk) 06:15, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
Plus he has created two different user accounts during last two days 1st: https://mn.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A5%D1%8D%D1%80%D1%8D%D0%B3%D0%BB%D1%8D%D0%B3%D1%87:%D0%9C%D3%A9%D0%BD%D1%85%D0%B7%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%B8%D0%B3 and 2nd: https://mn.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=%D0%A5%D1%8D%D1%80%D1%8D%D0%B3%D0%BB%D1%8D%D0%B3%D1%87:%D0%94%D3%A9%D0%BB%D1%85%D2%AF%D2%AF&action=edit&redlink=1 Orgio89 (talk) 06:54, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
His IP changing camouflaging attacks on local Wikipedia lasted for the last 2 or 3 years and caused big damages to our side of Wikipedia and if possible can a Wikipedia legal personnel contact Mongolia's local cybercrime police department and physically arrest this possible hacker criminal? The local cybercrime police web is here: http://www.police.gov.mn/news/content/id/1058/type/120/menuid/ (If I personally contact them they'll immediately ignore me, but if a foreign legal professional contact them possibly they'll move).

Vandalism on the main page of rueWiki

He is changing his IP address, so there's not much sense of blocking individiul addresses. We can of course block the 46.211.* range with allow only registered users if he is not stopping. Stryn (talk) 15:36, 5 July 2017 (UTC)

2607:FB90:336:992:555:5A8:F98A:3BA4 and many others

There's probably more, but these IPs (all based in Philadelphia) have been spamming English content on the Scots Wikipedia. When I warn one of the IPs, they've already switched to a new address. What can be done? BTW, I hold temporary admin rights on scowiki. --AmaryllisGardener talk 21:50, 14 July 2017 (UTC)

Hello @AmaryllisGardener: According to <https://nativeforeigner.com/calc/>, to block the IPs you mention:
  • IPv6 Subranges:
    • 2607:fb90:24a2:d5bd:8000::/65
    • 2607:fb90:336:992:555:5a8:f98a:3ba4
    • 2607:fb90:33b:30de:8d71:6b74:25d1:7942
    • 2607:fb90:2b0a:c621:acad:db1b:ad4e:1cb
    • 2607:fb90:2b68:21a8:88fe:870f:f421:faee
    • 2607:fb90:6832:ecdc:64c7:9802:e6b1:cade
I do not understand IPv6 well though, so maybe you'd like to wait for someone else's opinion before doing the blocks.

For now I'll just block them all individually. Thanks! --AmaryllisGardener talk 22:04, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
Actually, I've just followed what was done at enwiki, where the user used to be active. I've blocked the range that they blocked there. --AmaryllisGardener talk 22:23, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
