This is a place where users can communicate with administrators, or administrators with one another. You can report vandalism, problematic users, or anything else that needs an administrator's intervention. Do not report child pornography or other potentially illegal content here; e-mail legal-reportswikimedia.org instead. If reporting threatened harm to self or others also email emergencywikimedia.org.

Reason for reporting: Since 2022 als edits by this user are deletions of correct categories. Einsamer Schütze (talk) 19:27, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Weird. Slow-motion vandalism. Given that the account isn't used for anything else, I wouldn't have any problem with a block, but it looks like they were just given their first warning. I'd say that if they do this even once more after that warning, we should block, quite possibly indefinitely. - Jmabel ! talk 01:32, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

 Done. Jeff warned the user. Currently that's enough. Taivo (talk) 08:04, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
