Copyvios after two final warnings, one last month, and a 2021 block. Belbury (talk) 12:11, 13 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

✓ Done. One month block. Taivo (talk) 12:23, 13 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Cross-wiki spam and sockpuppetery

Cross-wiki spamming. Uploading trademarked images protected by copyright and only used for advertising or promotion, I believe that can be seen in the behavior of these two accounts on enwiki.

✓ Done I blocked the sock, deleted the duplicate file, and warned both users. Yann (talk) 08:51, 15 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

User:Rabbipainter copyvios

Uploading press/Instagram celebrity photos found online, after a final warning. Initially falsely claiming them to be released under a CC licence, now just omitting licences. Belbury (talk) 08:00, 15 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

✓ Done Blocked for a week, all files deleted. Yann (talk) 08:53, 15 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Yann: Updating that per en:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Sf123456 this seems to be a sock issue as well, Sf123456 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log)  has indeed had several sockpuppet blocks here at Commons for the same kinds of copyvios.

Please protect File:Bristol Bond Street - Stagecoach 54287 (YX67UPP).JPG due to sockpuppetry. Page has previously been protected for similar edits. Johnj1995 (talk) 19:11, 15 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

User:Mennamohmeed

Continued spam after warning--Trade (talk) 17:31, 17 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

It looks like Wutsje gave a final warning instead of blocking, and I won't override that decision, so  Not done for now. Please come back if they continue. —‍Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 17:48, 17 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Requiring three warnings for posting spam before blocking seems a bit too lenient dont you think? Trade (talk) 17:58, 17 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

LTA vandal from English Wikipedia

Can someone please range block Special:Contributions/2600:6C40:5400:0:0:0:0:0/48? This is an LTA vandal from English Wikipedia who recently said "YOU'RE GOING TO BE BEATEN UP AT A CANDLELIGHT VIGIL!". Also, it would be appreciated if someone semi-protected my talk page. I've already asked for a global block on the checkuser mailing list, but a local block here will help in the meantime. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:06, 18 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

✓ Done Protected your page for two weeks. Let me know if you'd like it to be longer. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 03:52, 18 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
