✓ Done. I blocked both indefinitely for abusing multiple accounts and deleted their last remaining uploads speedily as obvious copyvios (small photos without metadata, uploader was himself depicted). Taivo (talk) 11:38, 8 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

User appears to be unaware of the copyright situation in China, and (s)he has committed no serious copyright infringements. I think a warning would suffice. 0x0a (talk) 14:10, 9 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

User:Alwataralwatar30

User continued to upload a large number of copyrighted files and claim own works, including re-uploading deleted files, and do not seem to have learned from a previous block. 0x0a (talk) 08:07, 10 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

HelpfulHens & 81.101.7.190

These accounts are being used to evade a global lock applied to the master's prior accounts.

Both the account and IP have been blocked on enwiki due to being socks of the master Lostonmyway. See the most recent SPI here.

Several other blocked socks of the master have been globally locked due to cross wiki abuse:

HelpfulHens has separately been blocked on several other wikis for abuse.

Similar behaviour is going on on commoons, including socking between the account and IP ([1][2][3]) and edit warring against a number of editors without consensus (File:European Union member states and candidates v2.svg). After their IP sock was blocked on enwiki, HelpfulHens retaliated by going on a cross wiki streak of disruptive edits targetting the admin with personal attacks and arbitrary reverts: [4][5][6][7][8][9]. TDL (talk) 06:01, 11 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

✓ Done I blocked indef. Lostonmyway and HelpfulHens, and the IP for 3 months. I also reverted most of their edits. Yann (talk) 07:23, 11 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
