Terraria Wiki:Admin noticeboard/Vandals-2017

"Edit war" on Night's Edge over the damage value, carried on by multiple IPs with misleading edit comments. I don't know what the proper value should be, but the shenanigans here are clearly out of line. --MentalMouse42 (talk) 13:37, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
 * The damage from the source code is indeed 42. If the value is changed again, I would recommend putting in the edit summary that the editor should make sure they have removed all their damage boosting gear before updating the damage. 4e696e6a6f795844 (talk) 14:13, 26 December 2017 (UTC)

Not really a vandal. However he/she has been ignoring the invisible notes and edit summaries of multiple users and has added many current-gen params to exclusive templates, removing the exclusive2s. Any suggestions on how to proceed? —ϟ Awesome_Diamonds ϟ  「talk」 01:38, 21 December 2017 (UTC)

Has created duplicate pages for the Necromantic Scroll, Paladin's Hammer, and Possessed Hatchet, but this is most likely just a new user's mistake. Not sure what course of action to take, but I have marked the duplicates for deletion. — ϟ Awesome_Diamonds  ϟ  「talk」 00:59, 10 December 2017 (UTC)

Has made some good contributions, but vandalizes every so often. Have reverted about 5 edits so far, the most recent about a minute ago — ϟ Awesome_Diamonds  ϟ  「talk」 22:48, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
 * I mixed him up with another guy, this is most likely a hit-and-run. — ϟ Awesome_Diamonds  ϟ  「talk」 22:50, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
 * We do have some vandalism. With the migration, some of the ip addresses have gotten messed up; we can't block any ips that begin with 172.31, as these appear to be shared ip addresses. Gamepedia staff will straighten it out after the migration is complete. Until then, all we can do is revert and undo. – Ferretwings (talk ) 23:07, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

I judge this to be a hit-and-run, but regardless of if it is, this is taking up a user space that could be used by new registering users. Mainspace edits of him/her included infobox value vandalism and “Kendall is Awesome!”. — ϟ Awesome_Diamonds  ϟ  「talk」 19:51, 29 October 2017 (UTC))
 * This seems to just be a case of one-off vandalism by a younger user, as they show some helpful intent in their other two edits. I'll issue a warning if they continue, of course, but I don't think any action is needed at the moment. Either way, deleting accounts to make room for other uses isn't something that generally happens, and is definitely not something that non-Curse staff can do. – KM100 (talk) 22:27, 29 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the tips/info. I’ll keep an eye out — ϟ Awesome_Diamonds  ϟ  「talk」 13:55, 30 October 2017 (UTC)

I just reverted all three edits he made on three pages. One is wrong information, "Red is epic" on the second, and one random link vandalism. 79.180.111.102 23:51, 14 October 2017 (UTC)

I have so far reverted four of their vandalism edits. ReedemtheD3ad (talk) 02:21, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Blocked. – Ferretwings (talk ) 04:46, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
 * It seems (looking back on this user's contribs) that this was a hit and run, is there any rules against deleting their account so that new users can take the name? — ϟ Awesome_Diamonds  ϟ  「talk」 19:54, 29 October 2017 (UTC)

Keeps Vandalizing Pages. Have reverted them so far. Shadowjared24 (talk) 20:10, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Now keeps vandalizing my Comments Section on my Profile. Also created a page that needs to be deleted. Shadowjared24 (talk) 20:19, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Blocked. 4e696e6a6f795844 (talk) 20:28, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you. That was getting a little irritating. Shadowjared24 (talk) 20:37, 5 July 2017 (UTC)

This user has altered the Delete template to be a cat page. I will see if I revert if they change back. |Talk page|Contribs|User info (Myfinalettempt) 19:23, 18 June 2017 (UTC)

Two vandal edits on the Plantera page, overwriting a few infobox fields. All changes reverted. 122.108.249.158 02:05, 17 June 2017 (UTC)
 * With only two edits within a short time, it's likely another hit and run vandal. A block shouldn't be needed unless they come back for more. – KM100 (talk) 04:19, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

Vandalized one page which I reverted and then proceeded to vandalize another. Shadowjared24 (talk) 20:51, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Blocked. 4e696e6a6f795844 (talk) 22:22, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

Overwriting with random letters. Only one vandal edit until now. --Leonord curse「talk」 20:55, 22 April 2017 (UTC)
 * It could be a "hit and run". If he does more damage I'll block him. – Ferretwings (talk ) 21:00, 22 April 2017 (UTC)

Heavy vandalism of the pumking moon page. Probably same person. --Leonord curse「talk」 20:36, 22 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Blocked. Couldn't tell if it's the same person, could be friends. – Ferretwings (talk ) 20:45, 22 April 2017 (UTC)

He deleted the whole portal gun page, made stupid comments on random articles, changed info to wrong values and likes adding superfluous "information". --Leonord curse「talk」 17:46, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Blocked. – KM100 (talk) 18:19, 21 April 2017 (UTC)
