Global unblock for 151.48.0.0/17
Facts:13th june a steward (masti) blocked this italian ip range globally for six months with the motivation 'Cross-wiki spam: spambot'.There was not a spambot which is a computer making automatical spam edits but just a troll who abused account creation.The steward also blocked about twenty fake accounts created from that ip range whose only edits were message spamming in various wikipedias.I have seen that the messages were invitations to many users to join a votation in it.wikipedia.org which was closed short after so probably the abuser would have stopped anyway.But yet the block is still active for about 33000 ips until december. Considerations:a global block is useful to protect wikipedia but this kind of block exceeds this need.It is excessive both because the abuser has apparently no more reasons to continue his abuse and because to stop his abuse it was sufficient preventing users from that ip range from creating new accounts instead of blocking completely the possibility to edit anything.I know that every block causes unavoidably some collateral damage but in this case the collateral damage is too high but most important it is not necessary.I would not be asking to unblock the ip range if the problem was a spambot or an anonymous user who spammed his messages from various ip addresses from this range.I am asking to unblock the ip range because the abuser used the new accounts he continued creating to spam messages. Request:imho the most proper solution which both protects wikipedia from the abuser's possible return and makes the least possible collateral damage for the remaining 33000 innocent users is globally blocking new account creations but allowing editing from ips.In this way users can continue contributing anonymously and it would be even easier checking possible disruptive edits by keeping an eye on the ip range.Also consider that this italian ip range is maybe the most common provided by the telecommunication company 'Wind' and that a large part of italian contributors are currently prevented from editing for no justified reason.It is still possible that some users from this ip range will commit some abuse but no ip range contains zero percent of abuse and from this ip range no more abuse than from any other ip range is committed.You can check the contributions from the blocked ip range in it.wikipedia.org to verify my affirmation.So please review this six months global block and change its settings to allow normal users to make their usual constructive edits while preventing the abuser from creating new accounts.

Global block for Year LTA


Persistent cross-wiki vandalism for the past several months (going back more than a year on en.wiki). This person has vandalized en.wiki, es.wiki, pt.wiki, fr.wiki, de.wiki, and Simple Wikipedia recently (other sites are probably affected as well). Most of the abuse involves date-changing vandalism and BLP vandalism (including attacks). The LTA appears to be the only person using this range, and there are almost no positive contributions on any wiki in the past year. After being rangeblocked on en.wiki in June, they took their vandalism cross-wiki again, most notably on simple.wiki. Please block the range (set to "anon-only") for at least 6 months.
