Global unblock for 46.183.103.0/27
- 46.183.103.0/27 xwiki-contribs • ST • IP info • WHOIS • robtex • gblock • glist • abuselog • bullseye
I am asking about this range because there was no justification provided for this global block in the previous unblock request (Steward_requests/Global/2019-04#Global_unblock_for_46.183.103.0/27). I have also checked resources available to checkusers and I cannot see any information about this particular case for "long term abuse" where. Global block policy says:
Global blocks should be placed with the lowest expiry possible, while still remaining effective. All global blocks should have an expiry (none should be indefinite).
In this case, a train service of Deutsche Bahn (German railway service), it makes little sense to block anything for longer than few hours, or even less. Why this block has been placed for so long?
It is generally not required to log in to the wiki to fix something (even small typo), so I the explanation that I am not affected by this block is unfortunately not enough. I am posting this here again because I do not understand why this request has been closed this way without any better justification than this.

@Ruslik0:@Alaa:@Ajraddatz:@Seewolf:
- You placed this request in the wrong section. As to the block, the range had been extensively used by Avoided, so it is blocked now. Ruslik (talk) 17:05, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you, do you know which wikis he was mostly active? dewiki has exempted this range apparently.... « Saper // talk » 19:46, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
- In the event of persistent/serious abuse on multiple wikis, a Global Block is implemented in order to prevent further disruption to the projects. Since this block is "anon-only", you shouldn't be affected, meaning that you should still be able to log in and edit with your user account. (If you still can't edit after logging in, then that is a problem.) If you (or anyone on that network) wants to edit anonymously with their IP, unfortunately, this isn't an option due to the abuse on this network. So, if you still want to edit using the IPs, you will have to wait until the block expires. I know that Avoided is a serious cross-wiki troll, and I trust that the Stewards have evaluated the level of abuse and potential collateral before implementing the block. Inconvenience due to being unable to edit anonymously is not a valid reason for lifting a Global Block. LightandDark2000 🌀 (talk) 04:50, 5 May 2019 (UTC)

Be sure to follow the instructions below:
Please describe abusive activity of an account before reporting them here. Since stewards are often not active at projects the reported accounts are, things that seem obvious to you may not be equally obvious to the reviewing steward.

Global lock for 濫用過濾器
- 濫用過濾器 (talk • contribs • block • xwiki-contribs • xwiki-date (alt) • CA • gblock • ST • lwcheckuser)
This username is the Chinese translation of "Abuse filter" but not the exact abuse filter that performs block and therefore was blocked indef on zhwp. Request for global lock to prevent the account from editing on other Chinese projects to pretend to have adminstrative authority. --94rain Talk 13:08, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
- Prevent this account from other Chiness projects? Can local blocks work? Prevent impersonator of abuse filter, only zhwp have abuse filter block function [thus far]. The local zhwp block notice message even encourage them to ask for a rename, their local contributions are fine.--Cohaf (talk) 13:14, 24 April 2019 (UTC)--Cohaf (talk) 13:51, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
- I endorse this lock, that name is problematic, people will saw this on every zh speaking wikis as a proper abusefilter special account that used for blocking.--AldnonymousBicara? 13:21, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
- They didn't edit in any zh project yet, I'm not opposing but just have queries. Regards,--Cohaf (talk) 13:28, 24 April 2019 (UTC)

- Marked this as on hold until several days or this user replies and rename. I do not think this user would response, though. If the user still does not reply in a week, I strongly suggest stewards lock and hide this account. -- 94rain Talk 02:11, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
- Since there's can be room for a rename, I propose we wait for them to reply failing which we do a hard forced rename. Save the lock plus hide. I am not convinced for a lock if User:滥权管理员 is not locked and hide , that means administrators who abuse power. I know per local decision, we allow such username. User:滥权巡查员 Patrollers who abuse power. etc.--Cohaf (talk) 07:23, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Cohaf: a “hard forced rename” will make the username available again. What’s the merit? Incnis Mrsi (talk) 10:13, 28 April 2019 (UTC)

Global lock for Μαρία Παύλου
- Μαρία Παύλου (talk • contribs • block • xwiki-contribs • xwiki-date (alt) • CA • gblock • ST • lwcheckuser)
Cross-wiki self-promotinal behaviour by this user [1], a totally unknown poet (see for example this at Commons). She was mainly active at el-Wikisource, where finally banned indefinitely (see also [2]). Now she tries to promote herself through el-Wikiquote, where there are no sysops [3]. Her account must be locked globally, and someone must delete her pages at el-Wikiquote too. At el-Wikipedia she was active -again trying to promote herself- thru another account, Παύλου Μαρία. ——Chalk19 (talk) 15:34, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
