Widen a pblock? Or blacklist?[edit]
Hi Harry! You pblocked Special:Contributions/106.222.208.0/22 from various articles to do with steel production in India back in March. That hasn't stopped them adding their spamlink to more tangental articles – Tata Steel for instance [1] [2]. Is it worth you widening their pblock to include Tata Steel or would I be better requesting a blacklisting of reninemetal.com? 81.187.192.168 (talk) 17:45, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- Blacklisting is definitely one option but there's more than one domain being spammed though there are constructive edits on the range. Might be worth raising at ANI to see if anyone has any bright ideas. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 09:16, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
Please renew the block of 193.219.130.166[edit]
Last April, you blocked 193.219.130.166 for one year to prevent persistent disruption. The block has expired but they have continued the disruptive behavior and another block would be appreciated. Thanks! ElKevbo (talk) 11:16, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- RegentsPark blocked this editor for 36 hours. Given that this disruption has been ongoing for several years from this one IP address and continued after a 1-year block, a block of similar length is likely warranted as a shorter block seems unlikely to be effective.

- @ElKevbo they can have a longer break. Thanks. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 09:10, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks but they've just changed to a new IP address. Rather than continuing to play whack-a-mole, I've requested an edit filter be created. ElKevbo (talk) 11:53, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- @ElKevbo they can have a longer break. Thanks. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 09:10, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
