Global lock for Starship9000

Status:    Done

Looking at the global contribs this user doesn't really get "playing nicely" and is certainly a candidate for gblocking (IMHO) - discovered via a CU req on Commons - thanks --Herby talk thyme 18:21, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

Strongly support. When I first encountered Starship9000, he appeared to be innocently ignorant of Wikipedia rules and I believed that he had the potential to grow into a productive editor. Several of us offered support and Go Phightins! adopted him. He promptly blew off his adoption exams and I was one of several editors who supported a voluntary one year Wikibreak. He refused to take a voluntary break and continued making improper edits. Since the block took effect, he has started vandalizing a number of other Wikimedia projects and engaging in good hand-bad hand sockpuppetry. His sock IP is currently blocked globally and his account is blocked on every project where he is active. I have two concerns that justify a block: 1. Wasting admins' time on each respective project; and 2. I am concerned that he will keep skipping from one project to the next doing exactly the same thing, and I'd rather not have to follow him to WikiBooks et al like I've tracked his vandalism spree across English Wikipedia, Simple Wikipedia, WikiQuote, Commons, WikiSource, and WikiNews. He is indef'd on WikiQuote and his editing history is sufficient to justify indefs in all of his other projects as well. Andrewman327 (talk) 18:56, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
Please also see User:Rschen7754/Reports/Cross-wiki hat collectors/Starship9000. I would support under the grounds of crosswiki vandalism and socking. --Rschen7754 19:27, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
  • Strong support But can this not be indefinitely? Even a long fixed length like 3 years would be better than an indefinite ban. Starship is not acting the way he did out of a malicious attempt to hurt the Wikimedia project, he is taking actions out of age-related immaturity.Ryan Vesey (talk) 19:23, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

Spree of vandalism across a number of different Wikipedias: global edits. They are blocked indefinitely on Russian Wikipedia and there is an ongoing discussion on English Wikipedia's Administrators Noticeboard for Incidents. —Tom Morris (talk) 09:21, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

The discussion has meanwhile been archived to en:Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive788#Ongoing_blanking_from_Imorthodox23. Indeed most cw edits like [1] [2] are super-unhelpful changes in list order. Quite a number of recent changes on enwiki, like [3], [4] and [5] (all took more than 1 revision to make..) also are mere order-changing. However, since the user has more than 1000 edits on en, I would prefer it if he were blocked there first, to "confirm" that he does not at times also contribute constructively. --MF-W 02:18, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
