G'day Merrystar

I'm so sorry to ask you this, but I'm hoping that you can help me out with some advice about a situation...

I've been contributing to a Wiki for a computer game, and have recently been made an Admin. There is also another Wiki hosted by Wikia for the same computer game.

It has come to my attention that someone that was banned from the Wiki I Admin for (happened before I was made an Admin), has gone to the other Wiki - which is fine, and I have no problem with that.

However, what I do have a problem with is that this person has been coming to our Wiki and taking our content to add to the other wiki. They have admitted as much in a thread here: http://marvel-avengersalliance.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:2583#3

I believe that this is in violation to Wikia's copywrite policies, but I'm not sure. I'd like to think that they have to come up with their own content, rather than just using ours...

Is there a way for us to petition Wikia to cancel this person's account and/or to block him from our Wiki so that he cannot access our content? I realise that this may not stop him from using a friend's computer, but we would like to at least make it difficult to plagerise our content.

In addition, is it possible for our Wiki to be changed so that only Registered Users can edit our pages (and thus, see our code)?

I've been an Admin for 5 days and this not an aspect that I like having to deal with, so any advice you can offer on what we can do and who we can talk to, to get a resolution would be super awesome.

This person has also been sending threats of physical violence over Twitter to people that use our Wiki. I have logged a complaint with Twitter and it's being investigated by them, and I've told those users to inform their local police.

The only reason I mention this is that I feel that this person has moved beyond just being a Troll, and hope that you can see that our situation is more than "a bunch of people that can't get on".

Thanks so much in advance for any/all help you can offer.
