Some IP (I assume they are the same person and just change his IP) from Malaysia keep adding some photos of Singaporean actors/actress to random Wikipedia articles, not only at Chinese Wikipedia but also some small Wikipedia projects with few active users. I have tried requesting for protect the certain articles and block the IP but some weeks later he uses another IP and vandalizes another pages and other wikis. This lasts for a very long time. Now the only way for me to stop this is to check the "File usage on other wikis" section on the image info page from time to time.
Some vandal examples:

- https://guc.toolforge.org/?by=date&user=2001%3AE68%3A5432%3AA842%3AA837%3ADB85%3AA9C5%3AF7B0

So can you add a abuse filter or something to stop these images from being added to any Wikimedia project by these Malaysian IP user? --dqwyy (talk) 05:26, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Dqwyy: Not here, but you could ask for global blocks at m:srg. — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 20:02, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for your suggestion but maybe global block doesn't work because he keeps changing his IP address, some are from Johor, some are from KL, some are from other cities in Malaysia. He doesn't do any other vandalism except adding these photos, that's why I want to do something to these photos. As I said before, I have already tried to block the IP and protect the pages but he use another IP and then vandal another random pages. If there is a global abuse filter to stop IP from adding these photos to articles, that will work. I can't even list all the IP here because there are so many, I already forgot some of them. --dqwyy (talk) 07:45, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Dqwyy: Sorry, we have no way I know of to prevent misuse of our images; preventing misuse is the purview of local Admins and Stewards. — Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me 10:21, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

"City of" in UK[edit]
At User talk:CommonsDelinker/commands/Category moves, a bunch of category move requests from User:Schlosser67 have been languishing for weeks. I don't know whether these are well-advised or not, and would as that some admin who has a clue would please take this on. A typical example is
| Rename Category:Bus stations in Bradford to Category:Bus stations in the City of Bradford (0 entries moved, 7 to go) (Requested by Schlosser67) Bus stations in Bradford;Bus stations in the City of Bradford;r; Covers the wider metropolitan borough, not just Bradford alone |

Hindi Poetry[edit]
A section of Hindi Poetry is called "Naugeet". There is no section of that in Wikipedia and I would like to add to the repository. Please inform me on how I can do that Csbhargava (talk) 06:54, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
