Block request for User:Akasahe28

Akasahe28 (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) 

Continuing to upload a coyvio logo after their last blocked in February 2025. D.18th (talk) 21:35, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. I deleted last 4 uploads due to failed license review and blocked Akasahe for a month (second block). Taivo (talk) 11:37, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

sock of User:Yukitanooki

sock puppet for block evasion, which has been confirmed at en:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Yukitanooki. 0x0a (talk) 04:19, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done. I blocked NightShade indefinitely. Taivo (talk) 11:41, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Protection request for Template:Prompt

Used in the Upload Wizard interface if the editor indicates that the work was AI-generated and fills out the prompt field, so should probably have some sort of protection. 600+ transclusions and likely to continue growing. Sdkb talk 01:28, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done I protected it at "autopatroller" level. - Jmabel ! talk 05:04, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

User:Arafatul Islam Akan Robi

Arafatul Islam Akan Robi (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log)  Uploading copyvio after the last warning. —Yahya (talk • contribs.) 19:14, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

✓ Done Blocked for a week, copyvios deleted. Yann (talk) 19:22, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sockpuppetry

Blocked on enWiki. CU has determined that the former is the master and the latter the puppet without need for SPI. Master has uploaded multiple similar corporate logos here, all up for DR as adverts. Please take any necessary action. 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 Timtrent 🇺🇦 talk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 15:59, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

 Half done I deleted the first user's uploads and Jeff already left them a warning, but as of yet they've done nothing on this project to deserve an immediate block. The second account has no local edits. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 16:25, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@The Squirrel Conspiracy My glass is nether half full nor half empty. It is precisely the correct size. Good call. 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 Timtrent 🇺🇦 talk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 19:11, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure that File:KIt body talleres2025t.png is a copyright violation. Yann (talk) 18:46, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yann: No license since 8 April 2025, deleted by Krd on the 16th, uploaded since your block 09:51, 4 December 2024 (UTC). They have other such uploads like File:Kalmine2025a.png, File:KIt socks smt2025h.png, File:Kt left arm gyej2025h.png, File:Kity socks dyj2025a.png, etc. with what looks like a history of failure to include licenses on some files and failure to heed advice about those files on their user talk page.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 19:17, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It was deleted for having no license, but there actually was a license. It is the same for all files. And certainly File:KIt socks smt2025h.png and others are too simple too have a copyright. File:KIt body talleres2025t.png is the most complex of all, but still. Yann (talk) 20:52, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, fine.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 20:54, 22 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
