Templates...again[edit]

There was a thread last week about an anon range continually blanking and/or resetting the sandbox and sandbox templates. There was a short range block, but the user really hasn't slowed down much since that 3 hour block expired, having continued from nearly 40 IPs in the past week. In the grand scheme of things, this isn't really all that disruptive, but it doesn't appear to be very useful either.

List of IPs

  Might not be the whole list. These are the IPs that blanked/reset Wikipedia talk:Sandbox since the block expired.

Some of these have been blocked. Some haven't. Blocking directly probably doesn't do much good since the user doesn't appear to have any trouble switching fairly quickly to a new address. Is this disruptive enough to worry about? If so, is this too large of a range to consider trying a longer range block? --OnoremDil 13:08, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

I don't think a range block would be a good idea here - we're talking about all IP addresses in the range of 151.49.0.0 - 151.49.63.255, which comes out to 16384 IP addresses. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 13:43, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
...almost all of which appear to be vandalising. Seriously, though, I'm not sure what we can do about this, short of blocking each IP we find. The Sandbox cannot be protected, for obvious reasons. UltraExactZZ Claims ~ Evidence 13:57, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
