The first six pages in the list above were added by the spammer, snd should be deleted. This guy's using a Croatian ISP (see IPWHOIS). Also, it would be nice to be able to completely the remove the history entries for spammers, for two reasons: to make it harder for theme to restore spam, and to save disk space on the server. - DaveSeidel 13:03, 13 Feb 2005 (PST)

  1. 05:49, 2005 Feb 8 Metaweb:How to edit a page

A new pattern: this one posted 21 edits within about 3 minutes. Either a bot or a compulsive asshat with a fast connection. Definitely need to ban this one. We should also consider making this page "special" (i.e., non-editable), since it's important and unlikely to require frequent changes. DaveSeidel 03:56, 8 Feb 2005 (PST)

Also, pages DraGona through DraGonz plus DraGonaa. Can someone please delete these, who has the power to do so? DaveSeidel 16:04, 4 Feb 2005 (PST)

Could we ban the creation of files named "DraGon*"? This might put a kink in some of the asshattedness. I've also asked that editing be limited to persons logged in as users. Users should have their email addy verified. Perhaps even one of those surreallized number-digit image authentication protocols -Mike Lorrey 20:06 7 Feb 2005 EST

I agree that, at a minimum, one should be logged in to edit. And I'd support your other ideas as well. DaveSeidel 17:29, 7 Feb 2005 (PST)

Dropped a lot of links at the bottom of History of Commerce in China. Moved a distillation of them to the talk page to see if any can be used, though I have doubts. - Sparky 10:15, 2004 Jul 27 (PDT)

Strange (apparent) repeat of previous spam / vandalism on Metaweb talk:How to edit a page. Six edits in 7 minutes -- could have been a buggy linkbot. - Griswald 16:52, 24 Jul 2004 (PDT)

Similar activity: abusive behavior, threats. Blocked. --Pat 16:53, 29 Dec 2003 (PST)

This statement is a lie, and its publication is libel. Withdraw it, or prove it. What is this "behavior" and where are these "threats"? --User:142.177.103.187 09:40, 5 Jan 2004 PST

142.177.82.119

An anonymous user from IP address 142.177.82.119 posted insulting comments on User_talk:Stsparky and combined these with an off-hand discussion of blowing things up as a way to disagree with Stsparky's edits. I put this block up to encourage a cooling off period for this user, and intend to unblock the IP if there is no more evidence of vandalism. --Pat 01:32, 29 Dec 2003 (PST)

It's hardly offband to note that one technological escalation breeds another. --User:142.177.103.187 09:40, 5 Jan 2004 (PST)
