Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism
Appearance
Report active, obvious, and persistent vandals and spammers here.
Before reporting, read the spam and vandalism pages, as well as the AIV guide. To submit, edit this page and follow the instructions at the top of the "User-reported" section. For other issues, file a request for administrator attention.
Important!
- The edits of the user must be obvious vandalism or obvious spam.
- Except for egregious cases, the user must have been given enough warning(s).
- The warning(s) must have been given recently and there must be reasonable grounds to believe the user(s) will further disrupt the site in the immediate future.
- If you decide that a report should be filed, place the following template at the bottom of the User-reported section:
* {{Vandal|Example user or IP}} Your concise reason (e.g. vandalised past 4th warning). ~~~~
- Requests for further sanctions against a blocked user (e.g., talk page, e-mail blocks) should be made at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
- Reports of sockpuppetry should be made at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations unless the connection between the accounts is obvious and disruption is recent and ongoing.
- This noticeboard can grow and become backlogged. Stale reports are automatically cleared by MDanielsBot after 4–8 hours with no action.

- Harrier Safari (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – actions evidently indicate a vandalism-only account. Disruptive editing and unsourced content addition to all edits done by the user. Wikibear47 (talk) 15:49, 6 April 2025 (UTC)
Edits are not vandalism. Please ensure recent edits constitute vandalism before re-reporting. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:02, 6 April 2025 (UTC)
- Haroonshaik (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) – On Ghousavi Shah: Clear case of WP:NOTHERE. The user has been posting non-neutral/promotional-sounding content on Ghousavi Shah, and going directly against multiple embedded notes. They are also displaying WP:OWN behavior, at one point even self-proclaiming to be "the admin of this article". While their most recent edit isn't WP:OWN behavior, they added more unsourced content after receiving a final warning. Apologies if this is better suited for somewhere else, but reporting here since it seems like a pretty clear cut case of WP:NOTHERE to me.
