/* Vandalism */
:::Good call, go for it. If it deters him from vandalizing the page, all the better. [[User:Northwest|Northwest]] ([[User talk:Northwest|talk]]) 21:17, 13 May 2017 (EDT)
::::Seems like a good idea although I have absolutely no idea why he keeps attacking that page. --[[User:Anglican|Anglican]] ([[User talk:Anglican|talk]]) 21:22, 13 May 2017 (EDT)
:::::I think the right thing, if a checkuser operation suggests it, is an IP block. His ''modus operandi'' is to feign obsession with Taylor Swift. A long time ago, after the grownups (of which I was one) banned him from Ameriwiki, he created another wiki, spoofing ours, creating and then preemptively blocking accounts of said grownups, and plastering huge pictures of Joseph Stalin and Taylor Swift on the main page. With a caption indicating that Mr. Stalin (who died in 1953) was in love with Ms. Swift (who was born in 1989). That's the kind of person we are dealing with. Basically he's saying "Hey, everybody! Remember me, the guy who trashes wikis with incredibly childish vandalism, and basically acts like a moron? I'm back!"
:::::The right thing to do is be sure he gets blocked and stays blocked. If that is done it won't be necessary to protect the Taylor Swift page. And if it isn't done, there may be a lot of vandalism to a lot of pages.
:::::I actually had an extended email dialog with him about 4-1/2 years ago. He told me at the time that he was suffering from serious health problems. I'm glad things are going better for him. [[User:SamHB|SamHB]] ([[User talk:SamHB|talk]]) 00:55, 14 May 2017 (EDT)
