JMF's edit summary
editHi there, JMF's edit summaries are typos, unlike by comparing IvanScrooge98's edit summaries are lack of incivility, Wikipedia as a battleground and content ownership. ~2026-28867-32 (talk) 11:55, 13 May 2026 (UTC)
- @~2026-28867-32: loutsocking is not encouraging for other administrators when you claim you haven't socked for over a year. Appeal from your most recent account, or your original one. DatGuyTalkContribs 10:29, 14 May 2026 (UTC)
The block evasion continues from multiple IP accounts (and typically, are silly edits to the SD). See history of Mewar–Malwa conflicts.
Whack-a-mole so our call.--𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 15:07, 14 May 2026 (UTC)
- Just in case there is more that one puppeteer in action [how likely is that?
], I believe that "my" one is Absolutiva (aka SwissArmyGuy), who may not be the one you are dealing with here? --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 15:28, 14 May 2026 (UTC) - I considered protecting the page, but you'll most likely be followed to another. You're correct, it's probably a whack-a-mole situation. DatGuyTalkContribs 20:56, 14 May 2026 (UTC)
- I see I misremembered who was whacking which mole. See user talk: ScottishFinnishRadish#~2026-29067-93.
- I don't mind reverting every time they try to reimpose their desired version with a wp:bmb notice. Hopefully they will eventually see that it pointless and go off to X to howl at the moon instead. Spending your time on blocking their many ip addresses is just feeding their attention-seeking behaviour. No need to protect this one page as they are all over the place.
