An account disablement (disabling?) is something between the user and Wikia, Inc. Third parties are not privy to that information. Would it be possible to contact Fandom directly to see if the user disabled their account or if Fandom blocked them? Or is there some sort of confirmation email like a “We’re sorry to see you go” type of thing that someone receives when they disable their account that I can ask the user to provide proof of?

And the autoconfirming thing doesn’t explain how someone can vandalize a semi-protected page within hours of creating an account.
