This is a place where users can communicate with administrators, or administrators with one another. You can report vandalism, problematic users, or anything else that needs an administrator's intervention. Do not report child pornography or other potentially illegal content here; e-mail legal-reportswikimedia.org instead. If reporting threatened harm to self or others also email emergencywikimedia.org.
Vandalism []	User problems []	Blocks and protections []	Other []
Report users for clear cases of vandalism. Block requests for any other reason should be reported to the blocks and protections noticeboard.	Report disputes with users that require administrator assistance. Further steps are listed at resolve disputes.	Reports that do not suit the vandalism noticeboard may be reported here. Requests for page protection/unprotection could also be requested here.	Other reports that require administrator assistance which do not fit in any of the previous three noticeboards may be reported here. Requests for history merging or splitting should be filed at COM:HMS.

Recent block evasions by user:Elizzzzz

user:Elizzzzz has been CU-blocked by user:Elcobbola in January 2024 (special:redirect/logid/349734317). Recent enwiki SPI/CU results (w:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Elizzzzz/Archive) show that they made many new accounts after January 2024, and made edits/uploads to Commons. Since user:Elizzzzz has not made an unblock request, I think such accounts should be blocked and tagged. These are the users listed in the SPI page that made edits/uploads to Commons after the CU-block of user:Elizzzzz:
