Global block for comment bots IPs
Cross wiki comment bot of some sort - almost certainly the same as the one I requested a block on yesterday (same pages on en wb). Toolserver not working but based on yesterday a short gblock would be sensible. Txs --Herby talk thyme 14:20, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

Cross-wiki vandalism. Repeated emptying pages on zh.wikipedia and zh-yue.wikipedia. --Makecat 05:34, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

- As a steward and an enwiki checkuser, no. Also, for the record, your comment about COI between the checkuser and steward involved in the block/lock is completely false and frankly ludicrous. J.delanoygabsadds 00:22, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

Global lock for Chauahuasachca
Misuses his global account to disruptively move articles in 103 (!) language versions of Wikipedia, without knowing the vast majority of these languages. He never establishes consensus for his moves, never communicates or cooperates with other users (impossible, due to lacking language skills). He has already been blocked in German, Afrikaans, Bosnian, Esperanto, Basque, French, Ilokano, Luxemburgish, Kapampangan, Romanian, Swedish and Yoruba Wikipedia for disruption, but continues with his problematic behaviour in several other projects, e.g. 4 moves in Catalan today, 23 in Cebuano yesterday etc. I think that smaller projects with few active users might not be aware of this global problem, so it should be solved globally. --RJFF (talk) 14:02, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
