211.36.142

[edit]

Hi, thanks for blocking the IPs, but this person is using new IPs as you perform a block. Please range-block 211.36.142. See 211.36.142.34 filter logs. Jerium (talk) 16:36, 16 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A rangeblock is in place. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 16:42, 16 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

U.S. Route 97 in California

[edit]

Hello, I think you might have mistakenly undone one of my edits to this page where I mass rollbacked that IP hopper. It was supposed to be the year 1935. Can you please check this again? Thanks. User3749 (talk) 18:21, 25 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that was a mistake, I probably misclicked when looking at the IPs contributions. I’ve rollbacked my edit. Thanks for letting me know. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 18:26, 25 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This looks like the same person straight back again. ♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 13:23, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

How juvenile, blocked for a short time. I think a rangeblock from that page might be useful. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 13:29, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
OK, a /22 rangeblock for that page only is in place, let’s see how that goes. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 13:35, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

IP range evasion

[edit]

Hello, thanks for helping address the evasion reports I've raised a couple places now.

WHOIS, ipcheck, and RBL all came up negative for 187.69.0.0/16 but some IP randomization in that range seems to be at play.

187.69.0.0/16 · contribs · block · log · stalk · Robtex · whois · Google

Given the negative proxy check, should I still raise this one at WP:OPP, or would it be better to collect the specific evading IPs and report at WP:AIN? (Side note that I think I would file at WP:AIN over WP:AIV, since the IP user is not (solely) a vandal or spammer - they make (what I percieve to be) honest requests, but at an outsized rate as well as with disregard to the WP:RA guidelines. Additional aside that I have started a compilation of RA subpages where the block was evaded at the AN listing.) Tule-hog (talk) 21:40, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Tule-hog. Reports to WP:OPP should be accompanied by evidence. If there's no evidence, then it’s not usually worthwhile. As it happens, the ISP looks like a regular telecommunications company with dynamic IP addressing, which is not an unusual situation.
I’ve blocked the IP for a short while as block evasion. There’s only one edit to Wikipedia space from the /16 since the IPv6 /64 was blocked on 25 February so it doesn’t seem problematic at the moment. If things escalate, by all means collate the IPs and present them at AIN (or add them to the existing report at AN, if that hasn’t been archived.). — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 14:14, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Blocked another. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 10:32, 3 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Another IP address to add in User:Malcolmxl5/sandbox

[edit]

For Special:Contributions/154.180.118.169, confidently say it is the same person as HazemGM with a bunch of IP addresses during the whole time Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 21:36, 13 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that’s in one of the ranges that HazemGM uses: 154.180.0.0/16. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 15:28, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
