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-reportswikimedia.org instead. If reporting threatened harm to self or others also email emergencywikimedia.org.
Vandalism []	User problems []	Blocks and protections []	Other []
Report users for clear cases of vandalism. Block requests for any other reason should be reported to the blocks and protections noticeboard.	Report disputes with users that require administrator assistance. Further steps are listed at resolve disputes.	Reports that do not suit the vandalism noticeboard may be reported here. Requests for page protection/unprotection could also be requested here.	Other reports that require administrator assistance which do not fit in any of the previous three noticeboards may be reported here. Requests for history merging or splitting should be filed at COM:HMS.

• Already done blocked for a week by DerHexer. - Jmabel ! talk 22:57, 13 July 2026 (UTC)

  @DerHexer: I see that you disabled autoblock for them. Was that intentional? Whyiseverythingalreadyused (t · c · he/him) 05:37, 14 July 2026 (UTC)

  Yes, because I doubt that they will ever come back (i.e., no abusive edits to expect nor new account creations). And an auto(hard)blocked IP address (that we don't even know) would only disturb others who will use it later. It would only add extra work for admins to lift the block when false positives show up. Best, —DerHexer (Talk) 10:48, 14 July 2026 (UTC)

  I see that the comrades at nowiki left a permaban with talk page access but no autoblock circumventions

  Interesting
