A user by the name of GeneralGrievousHero4Life17 (a sockpuppet of a globally blocked account GeneralGrievousHero4Life) has been inserting false information across a plethora of wikis, however the Heroes Wiki has an inactive admin and it has been difficult to revert his contributions. Other wikis he has disrupted include the Cartoon Network Wiki, Toonami Wiki, and the Fictional Characters Wiki. He is on his twentieth sockpuppet account to circumvent his global block, and has persisted in being a nuisance.
I was wondering if there was anything that could be done in this situation.
I forgot that Lady Lostris is a VSTF. Either way, reporting it on their wiki ensures that more volunteers will see it, and the problem should get dealt with sooner.
I have been blocked on Minecraft Wiki because my friend spammed on it. When i tried to explain to the admins they said that i was sockpuppeting. This has happened to me before on Agar.io Wiki. I have changed my password to something else to prevent more trouble. Can you help out? Kind Regards, Thebest123123xxx (Profile) (Contact)
If you're asking me if I could unblock you, then I will unfortunately have to disappoint you. As a member of the VSTF we're there to aid local administrators in their fight against vandalism and spam, though by no means do we stand above them or have the authority to overrule any decision they made. I can only advise you to talk to the local administrators of the wiki where you were blocked. You are responsible for your own account and how it's being used, so be mindful to whom you give the password to. If the local administrators do not want to revoke your block, then I am afraid there is not much else you can do.
At first I thought it was just a hiccup or maybe using bold type for a word had something to do with it, but after retyping, waiting 5-10min. then trying on a different thread the same thing happened as well as trying to hit the Mark as Read button. I have no idea of it's just me/got marked for something again, all of that wikia or what, but I couldn't even message on your wall there, so...?
I logged in today and was ready to post, couldn't then checked my wall to see that I was somehow marked as spam and banned despite not having posted in 2 days. Admin, please fix this.
You were wrongfully caught in an abuse filter, but I unblocked you and all should be fine again. If you ever encounter this issue again on the Avatar Wiki, just message me directly on here. I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you.
Hi L, I was recently contacted by a user on Wikia going by the alias BenBenson1. He bewailed about how he was mistreated and baselessly blocked, or rather banned, from editing or creating wikia pages. Now I know that he probably made some silly edits that are undeniably inexcusable, but give the guy a second chance. He purported to have been active on the wikis since 2005. That’s certainly not a short stay. I promised to conform his request by asking you to unblock (or unban) BenBenson1. Into the bargain, Ben assured to never make a "racially insensitive or hateful" post to the wikia community ever again, as a way to say sorry, or at least try to appease the hatefulness, sort to say. Now this message is not at all a command or must-to, rather a request, a friendly request. Again, Ben has felt apologetic after the whole article incident, and he wants his account back. I believe Ben also had some projects on other wikia pages that went unfinished because of this. The way he edited yesterday was kind of usurped tbh, not at all in my favor. But, I digress. Please, under me and Bens request, unblock his Wikia account. I also have to thank you for your work on Wikia. Means a lot when people like you take down the "actual problem" on the internet. Anyways, there was my little message concluded. All love, from Johnny Harden.
Hi there, sorry for the late reply. This message slipped by my attention.
Global blocks are only discussed with the blocked user in private, especially since I wasn't the one who blocked him. A staff member did. As such, I advise your friend to contact FANDOM themselves and tell them their side of the story.
I don't know who I should ask for help on Fandom, so I think I should ask for your help. There is this user on the Resistance Wiki but it is actually a bot. Could you just block it permanently because he has been blocked on multiple wikia's.
There's nothing wrong with being a bot. They don't seem to be advertising any paid product nor vandalizing any article, so you should bring this up with Staff instead.
Please, next time, tell me what to remove and don't just wipe it all off. I'm not here to spam or vandalize any wikis' and am only here to give it a little personality, could you let me do that? This was on the Motu Patlue Wiki, on the Motu page.
fyi for the edit note on the Motu wiki, In my words exactly "if you want me to change anything please pm me or any other form of communication towards me. thank you! xoxoxo." Godamnit you couldve atleast deleted the more dippy dialogue, this is really upsetting.
That wiki has been subjected to vandalism for a good while now, hence it being kept under close supervision. Your recent edits, while not all entirely bad--hence you not being blocked for vandalism--weren't entirely good either: you inserted a lot of irrelevancies and subjectivity into the article, as well as some swearing, which is the reason why your edits were removed. I do apologize if it upset you, that was not the intention.
Additionally, you're always welcome to ask for an explanation for any of my actions, and I will answer you. However, it would be nice if you could refrain from name calling and referring to me as an "entitled schmuck".
Hi. I'm admin in Spanish version of Zelda Wiki.
We have suffred a lot of vandalism in recent months, ando normamlly we request the globl block of the users, but tey always return because they use multiaccounts, notwithstanding that we follow reporting them. Would you mind to globally block these vandals:
There is no point in globally blocking vandal accounts who were blocked over a month ago. I checked for a possible IP range to block, but there is no such range. As such, there is not much we can do, sorry.
Hello a comment about how to fix conflicting intermediate edits from 2015 of yours has helped so many people, in fact over 50! Our page was completely vandalized and no one could get it back, everyone was devastated. I decided to take matters into my own hands and research how I could fix this issue since instead of being able to just copy the code that the person deleted, it would not show up do to conflicting intermediate edits. After a bit I found a page asking for help about the situation that they were having from 2015 and I saw your comment. The page has been restored and everyone is very happy that they know how to get the code back even if that happens. Thank you so much for that comment and have a wonderful day, I hope you know that even now a comment from two years ago that you made is still helping so many people! - A random person that hoped to make your day better since you made so many other peoples day better
Hello, Lady Lostris. There is a user on the Undertale AU and Undertale Wiki who is underage. In one of the comments on a page, she states that she is eight years old, but the age limit of Wikia/Fandom is 13. The admins don't even seem to do anything about this, so here's the link:
As well as what Tupka said, you should message a Fandom Staff member about this instead of Lostris. VSTF do not cater for underage users. Special:Contact/general
