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-reports@wikimedia.org instead. If reporting threatened harm to self or others also email emergency@wikimedia.org.

I have deleted the some of their uploaded stuff but a warning should be enough at the moment and a block seems is unnecessary to me. Should the continue after this warning please report again. Regards, Aafi (talk) 17:57, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
✓ Done. I blocked the user indefinitely due to inappropriate username and nominated one image for deletion. Taivo (talk) 11:06, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone semi-protect File:Satoshi Nakamoto.jpg? It tends to attract unwanted anonymous edits (probably due to the visibility related to cryptocurrencies) and little to no constructive anonymous edits as far as I can see in the history. whym (talk) 01:07, 1 September 2024 (UTC) EDIT: Sorry, I thought the previous revert(s) were done this year, but there was a one-year gap. Maybe not frequent enough for semi-protection. whym (talk) 23:56, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just a note that the statue is a complete fabrication, with no basis in fact. The photo, on the other hand, is of a real statue.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 01:34, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, it might be better to describe it as something like "statue dedicated to SN" than "bust of SN" in the file description and at Category:Bust of Satoshi Nakamoto (Budapest). whym (talk) 01:52, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. Although the user was not warned, I decided to block him/her indefinitely as spam-only account. All contributions are already deleted. Taivo (talk) 09:33, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Needs full protection due to non-constructive edits in editwar modus. --A.Savin 09:12, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
