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.

Reason for reporting: Nonsense edits with lots of emoticons and something that turned out in translation to be Vietnamese vulgarisms. -- Jakubhal 22:26, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

 Done VOA. Yann (talk) 23:17, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

FYI

Has there been a call for vandalism? Since one week pages in ns Translations are persistently vandalised by IPs from all over the world. Just one example (see history): Commons:Translation administrators/ms. Filtered recent changes: [1] (plus about 70 I deleted), please be vigilant, thanks. --Achim55 (talk) 09:29, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

Achim55 This isn't an area I spend any time in. How much constructive editing is done by non-autoconfirmed users in that namespace? If the answer is 'very little', we might just want to restrict it. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 23:19, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
