- Tarquin blocked 152.31.2.221 (contribs) (unblock) (writing junk on about a dozen pages 16:59 Apr 15, 2003) -- number of days banned is more than double the number of pages vandalised. Unblocked by Martin 11:14 May 14, 2003 (UTC)
- 21:15 May 10, 2003, Zoe blocked 12.64.66.124 (contribs) (unblock) (continued creation of nonsense articles, vandalism of talk and votes for deletion pages) -- description is misleading: user appears to have made only one edit (which is a threat). Four days is sufficient punishment for one edit. Martin 18:49 May 14, 2003 (UTC)
- To be fair, I'd point out that created articles which are then deleted won't show up on its contributions list. Also, there have been numerous other, similar vandalisms by similar IPs, mostly or entirely in 12.64.64-67.xx (12.65.64.0/22 if you prefer). This is apparently the guy who brought us the PageHillBrier or whatever, Robert Miller, Breanna NC, etc. articles, out for revenge. Among his idea of fun seems to be editing Wikipedia:WikiMoney and subtracting amounts from random users. -- John Owens 14:27 15 May 2003 (UTC)
