FYI for anyone familiar with this one, they were almost exclusively editing from IPs in or around Victoria, B.C. on Cox Communications, but are now apparently at the University of Western Ontario on the 129.100.xxx.xx range. I've knocked out two already, but perhaps a rangeblock is in order if this keeps up. (short version: they have a large set of articles in which they like to change the colors in the climate boxes. That is literally all they do. They make no effort to hide and are extremely obvious. It's tedious more than anything else.) Beeblebrox ( talk) 21:44, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

I already posted them in Wikipedia:Long-term_abuse/Archive.
Additionally, I posted at Wikipedia_talk:Long-term_abuse/Scibaby that someone should blank his page. Someone added an archive tag, but did not blank. I still recommend blanking. 2620:8D:8000:10D5:C4A0:B6FC:B66B:A381 ( talk) 15:45, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
FYI, I found the eight by copying and pasting all the names from Wikipedia:Long-term_abuse/List and /info/en/?search=Category:Inactive_project_pages?from=Lo, then comparing the two lists in Excel. 2620:8D:8000:10D5:C4A0:B6FC:B66B:A381 ( talk) 15:48, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
One thing leads to another. I saw a bunch of LTA pages that should have been archived and requested that to be done [1].
Looking at the discussion, I saw that one admin recommended that the page be marked historical due to a relative lack of recent edits over the past 7-8 years [2].
I think Wikipedia has gotten better at preventing long-term abuse, so the number of LTAs has declined in the past few years. Many vandals also celebrate the recognition they get from these kinds of pages. The Long-term abuse page should be marked as historical. What do you think? 2620:8D:8000:10A6:71B7:9282:F1A9:BA79 ( talk) 20:54, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
I started to notice that Zhmailik and Zhoban are in the wrong order. In the LTA unsorted case list, Zhoban is before Zhmailik. However, in alphabetical order, Zhmailik is before Zhoban. I suggest the unsorted case list to be in alphabetical order.

Hey, I noticed AudiGuy-1204 LTA and found an error. It reads AudiGuy-1024 instead of AudiGuy-1204. 119.75.204.218 ( talk) 04:28, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
“ Usernames and edits can often be derogatory to Asians.” should be changed to “ Usernames and edits can often be derogatory to East Asians.”. 2603:8001:8400:DC34:FC99:CC60:E776:8381 ( talk) 18:43, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
Should we do a case about a Canadian IP troll that targets anti-vandalism editors? signed, 64andtim ( chat) 20:38, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
I'm putting together an LTA report relating to WP:ANI#West Papua copy-paster, see User:ActivelyDisinterested/LTA Sony Esau Mbisambo. It seems necessary as the edits can be seen in good faith, andany different admins have come across them without realising the history. Just looking for advisement as I've not had to deal with this before. -- LCU ActivelyDisinterested ∆ transmissions∆ ° co-ords° 18:16, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
Would anyone object to me doing an AWB job to replace all the archived pages tagged with {{ historical}} with a clearer tag? I already did so here but didn't know there were many. Queen of Hearts 07:07, 20 January 2024 (UTC)
Hello, as a sysop from English Wikiquote, I'd like to say this LTA is active currently in that project. Is there anyone who are familiar with him, e.g. commonly used IP ranges or behaviours in addition to :<? -Lemonaka 13:59, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
