Lock these fake Elias D accounts.
The following accounts are: EliasD, ItsElias, EliasD Alt, EliasAnimate2020, EliasTheVyonder2001, EliasTheVyonder2002, EliasTheVyonder 2002 Returns, and Elias D The Vyonder. They were basically created to harass other users on the Horrible Vyonders Wiki while it was still around. and the other admins should lock these accounts as soon as they can, as I was trying to tell you guys this whole time.

Please lock Alif and Nepgear for vandalism
He vandalized the Terrible TV Shows Wiki about a month ago, and I'm surprised nobody has globally locked him. Here's some evidence: https://terribletvshows.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Alif_and_Nepgear DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 13:42, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * ✅ locked as VOA. Zppix (Meta &#124; CVT Member &#124; talk to me) 14:32, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

Lock this fake account
This guy added in racist information on a closed or private wiki and the account needs to be locked as it is an impersonation account out of UltimateMakerDude30. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 18:11, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

Why is HVW closed?
It closed today, any solution? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Katholica (talk • contribs) 20:03, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * It was closed for violating Code of Conduct and Content Policy, and there are no solutions. Zppix (Meta &#124; CVT Member &#124; talk to me) 20:05, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

I would like this wiki of mine to be closed
I would like the Dreadful Music wiki that I made to be closed as I don't need it anymore. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 20:25, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * If you just want the wiki to be closed, you can do this yourself at Special:ManageWiki on the wiki. By steward convention, manually closed wikis are ineligible for adoption at requests for adoption. Hope this helps. Dmehus (talk) 20:52, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I actually meant to say that I want my Dreadful Music wiki to be deleted. Sorry for the mix-up. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 20:55, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Okay, no problem then. A steward should look at your request in the next couple of weeks (i.e., wiki deletion requests have typically given lower priority than, say, handling cross-wiki vandalism, abuse of multiple accounts reports, global renames, etc.). I will monitor your request and relist, as appropriate, to prevent the bot from archiving it. Dmehus (talk) 21:00, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

Exemption from inactivity
I'm the only active bureaucrat on this wiki, owned by my little brother InspecterAbdel (I'm his older sister (age 14)), who is unfortunately locked, and I don't want this wiki shut down and permadeleted. DiamondDigger197 (talk) 20:29, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

Remove this rule
Miraheze does not host wikis with the sole purpose to spread unsubstantiated insult, hate or rumours against a person or group of people Colin Marques (talk) 21:47, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

 * I think this is a good move. No reason for small wikis to opt out of Global Sysop counter-vandalism efforts. I will let a steward know. Dmehus (talk) 01:25, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Lock these vandals on wiki.8b8t.com
Pogggggg2847529457, Lazar123, and Pogggghg8292 are all vandalizing pages on this wiki by uploading inappropriate photos onto pages. Please lock their accounts immediately and delete the photos immediately. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 19:04, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I'm not familiar with those users, so don't doubt that they are likely to be vandalism only accounts, but I just thought I should comment that that there's been a request on steward mediation regarding that wiki and another 8b8t Miraheze customer wiki in the irc-relay channel on Discord. I doubt those users are related to the user who requested mediation, but just thought I should note this in the thread for the actioning Global Sysop. Dmehus (talk) 19:07, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, I think you should go take a look at the wiki anyway, and possibly remove those inappropriate pictures from there. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 19:11, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh, yeah, I don't doubt that the pictures should be removed, and if I were a Global Sysop or steward, I would. However, I am not that yet, as I am just a clerk on these noticeboards. So I will leave that for a Global Sysop or steward to review and remove. Thank you for your report. Dmehus (talk) 19:18, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Why don't we have do it too? DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 19:24, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Despite the vandalism being local, due to the fact that multiple accounts were used by the same user which violates the User accounts policy, I've decided to lock all three accounts globally. I've also nuked the images. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 19:28, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Can you do the same thing to WhyTheHellDoYouBrushYourTeeethAtWork as well? He also vandalized pages. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 19:34, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Zppix has already blocked this user locally. I don't see any evidence of vandalism on other wikis, so for the time being I don't see a reason to lock this account at a global level. If there is cross-wiki vandalism though, please let us know here. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 13:36, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Please lock Hey maboys
This guy has been vandalizing a page by blanking the page Please lock them. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 12:14, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
 * I think I have mentioned this before, but please note that global locks are usually performed in cases of cross-wiki vandalism, spambots or any other global policy violations (including abusing multiple accounts). It is unnecessary to lock an account for merely performing one single edit on one single wiki. The user can very well be blocked locally to prevent further vandalism and if it spreads to (an) other wiki(s) then they can be reported for a global lock. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 13:43, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Well okay then. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 14:19, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

Check user on Ip's
Please do an IP check on these accounts they are vandalism and spam IP's and I would like to know if they have any other main accounts or if they have any connection/ Please and thank you

 * Hello and welcome to Meta, you don't have to manually type your signature, you can just type 4 tildes, like this:  -- ACoolBlaze5 (talk) 13:37, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
 * (edit conflict) I believe that it is unreasonable to ask Stewards to go on a witch hunt for these several IPs without any sort of indication of evidence or suspicious behavior from an actual user that would be editing from these IPs. Unless there is a user on your wiki that you believe is vandalizing from all these different IPs (with evidence to why you think this) a CheckUser cannot be done.

Something About Reception Wikis...

 * The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.
 * Unactionable steward request. The Meta community sympathizes with users' loss of their wiki(s) that have been closed for systematic Content Policy and Code of Conduct violations, but stewards' noticeboard isn't, or isn't supposed to be, rather, a drama board. If this was intended to be an appeal of the wiki's closure, it falls woefully short of that. If you have a specific question of stewards, you can always contact . Thanks.

Listen, the Horrible Vyonders Wiki, Atrocious YouTubers Wiki, Toxic Fandoms And Hatedoms Wiki and all of these other reception wikis are for criticism you know. Shadow Freddy (talk) 02:13, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
 * you aren't wrong, but the concept was poorly executed. People were expecting these wikis to be factual wikis that criticize shitty users, YouTubers, wikis, etc. But no, they only got ED Kiwi farms-esque wikis.

You know Gucci Rsbbit?
Globally unblock him. He's been way overhated and he's behaving much better than he was before. Plus, he has potential in him. NeedsMoreJPEG (talk) 17:41, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

 * I don't know the circumstances that gave rise to this user's apparent global lock, but please tell this user to e-mail  with their appeal, and note that they do have two community members in yourselves willing to vouch for them. Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 23:01, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

Local CheckUser and Oversight
I want to do CheckUser and Oversight in my wiki, gomdoliwiki. What should I do? --Gomdoli4696 (talk) 00:24, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
 * This is a good-faith question, and a somewhat frequent one of new Mirahezians. Unfortunately, because CheckUser and Oversight provide for access to privileged information, the tools are, unfortunately, not used by anyone other than stewards. System administrators can use the tools, but only in very limited circumstances, mainly relating to Miraheze Terms of Use enforcement. If you believe a user is contravening user accounts policy, you can supply diffs and other behavioural evidence in a report on this noticeboard or via e-mail to . In terms of the latter, generally, requests for suppression should follow the Oversight global guidelines and policy; however, stewards may consider other requests for suppressing revisions, with a well articulated reason. Requests for suppressing revisions should never be made on-wiki, and instead e-mailed to  . Hope this helps. Dmehus (talk) 01:21, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
