Forum:Repeat IP Vandal is one person

I have noticed a trend the past few weeks, and I doubled checked by looking at the Block Log:

There have been a string of page vandalisms by anonymous IP addresses....which then delete the vandalism after a matter of minutes. This still counts as vandalism. There are spambots which insert random profanity but the specific content of these incidents can only have originated from a person, who knew the context of what they were writing. I think its a random IP vandal who got annoyed the first time we blocked them, and now uses proxy servers to keep adding in random vandalism, just to get some sort of satisfaction out of tweaking our noses.

Consider the following:


 * This vandalism to Lena Headey: http://gameofthrones.wikia.com/wiki/Lena_Headey?diff=prev&oldid=48204
 * This vandalism to King in the North: http://gameofthrones.wikia.com/wiki/King_in_the_North?diff=prev&oldid=49387
 * This vandalism to Renly Baratheon: http://gameofthrones.wikia.com/wiki/Renly_Baratheon?diff=49606&oldid=47563 and then http://gameofthrones.wikia.com/wiki/Renly_Baratheon?diff=49609&oldid=49606

And today, this vandalism to House Stark: http://gameofthrones.wikia.com/index.php?title=House_Stark&action=historysubmit&diff=49947&oldid=49945 (the IP needs to be banned). Adding in a vandalism only to remove it a few minutes later.

I suspect that this is one person making slights against the wiki for previous bans over vandalism.

We really need to ban anonymous editing.--The Dragon Demands 20:23, June 24, 2012 (UTC)
