Note
- For page protection requests, please state protection type, file name, and proposed protection time span. See also: Protection Policy.
- Before proposing a user be blocked, please familiarize yourself with the Commons' Blocking Policy.
- Remember to sign and date all comments using four tildes (
~~~~), which translates into a signature and a time stamp. - Notify the user(s) concerned via their user talk page(s).
{{subst:Discussion-notice|noticeboard=COM:AN/B|thread=|reason=}}is available for this. - Administrators: Please make a note if a report is dealt with, to avoid unnecessary responses by other admins.
This user is a suck puppet of Skulljujos (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) created to evade a permanent ban. You can see the timing of a lot of the files uploaded by that account and then see how it is immediately followed by an edit by Skulljujos in eswiki to add the uploaded picture to articles. For instance, check the upload time of this file: File:Eliana Molineros Governor of Guayas Ecuador 2025.jpg, and check at this edit to add that file to eswiki ([1]), literally two minutes after the Commons upload. Many other smoking guns as well, like that user having literally no edits in eswiki besides edits for adding the images to the articles that Skulljujos edits.Freddy eduardo (talk) 21:31, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
- As an addendum, Skulljujos (talk · contribs) has been caught using sock puppets before, for instance MASG91 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) , who was blocked by Mdaniels5757 (talk · contribs) about a year and a half ago.--Freddy eduardo (talk) 21:37, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
Done Feel free to nominate files for deletion. User indef-blocked. Bedivere (talk) 02:51, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
- I went through last 50 edits and all uploads are legitimate. Taivo (talk) 15:54, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
YasserMeddour
- YasserMeddour (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) . Repeatedly uploading copyright violations. Has previously been given a final warning. Marbletan (talk) 16:50, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
- Done 1-week block, hoping that will at least get their attention. - Jmabel ! talk 19:04, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
MOHAMMED KASSAR
MOHAMMED KASSAR (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) has repeatedly uploaded the same copyright-violating poster (currently at File:Wonders tree poster.png) after a final warning. I think it's time they stopped. --bjh21 (talk) 20:39, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
- Done 1-month block. - Jmabel ! talk 01:51, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
- If anyone who can read and write Arabic would like to clarify to them on their talk page what is going on (including by translating what I have written there), feel more than free to do so. You do not have to be an administrator to do this. - Jmabel ! talk 01:58, 14 January 2025 (UTC)

- Doonbh (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log)
Please see w:en:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Dbgbr. This affects Wikidata more than here. Global locks have been requested, but there is likely to be some local tidying up to consder. 🇺🇦 Timtrent 🇺🇦 talk to me 🇺🇦 12:10, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
- Given the global locks, I don't think a local block is needed. Regards, Aafi (talk) 14:23, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
- Done Dbgbr's uploads have been deleted. Doonbh didn't have any. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 18:30, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
Persistent upload of copyrighted material despite multiple warnings. quebecguy ⚜️ (talk | contribs) 17:38, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
Block request for User:LOXXESS
- LOXXESS (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log)
Username containing a commercial trademark. Ratekreel (talk) 10:56, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
Not done Not a violation of Commons' username policy. OTRS ticket verifies that the account is in control of the organization. Added {{verified account|1=2025011610004659}}to their userpage. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 01:02, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
Please put a semiprotection on this file for some time. Regards, Grand-Duc (talk) 21:13, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- Done indefinitely autoconfirm-protected, since the problems were all from IPs. - Jmabel ! talk 00:11, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
