OK this is getting ridiculous Japanese editors - why don't we just copy and paste an entire Wikipedia article here for ya? ---> Tooironic 23:46, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
- IP user User_talk:90.209.77.78 is probably the same one as User_talk:90.209.77.109, and both are the most active editors of this entry. (Special:Contributions/2.125.74.121 is the other main IP user, which address I think I've seen mentioned as a known-disruptive-but-not-entirely-malicious user.) 90.209.77.78 has self-described themselves as having Asperger's, which might explain the obsessively exhaustive lists of compounds and synonyms (many of which are manga-only, as best I can tell), and given the nearness of the IP address, I suspect 90.209.77.109 is the same person. In my dealings with 78, they appear to be earnest and acting in good faith, but apparently a bit in the dark as to what is appropriate for inclusion on a Wiktionary entry page. They don't check their messages very often, but blocking has in the past prompted 78 to take a look at their Talk page.
- I don't have the time or energy right now to sift through the complete mess of the 魔法 page myself, but I would strongly recommend that any and all edits by all three of these users (Special:Contributions/90.209.77.78, Special:Contributions/90.209.77.109, Special:Contributions/2.125.74.121) be checked thoroughly. -- Cheers, Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 19:22, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
- Oo, the stinker (user 90.209.77.109) reverted my cleanup of 魔法#Synonyms. Is there any way of blocking an IP user from reverting logged in users? Also wondering if we should just block this user outright for a short while? They certainly aren't playing well or paying much attention to their Talk page... -- Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 15:59, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
- Going over the obsessively exhaustive list of "See alsos", I ultimately decided to just remove them -- such lists do not appear to belong in a dictionary entry, many of the terms listed are of dubious provenance, some appear to be flat-out bogus, many have incorrect readings, the formatting is a mess, etc. etc. etc... -- Cheers, Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 22:18, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
- Since the editor keeps reinserting laundry lists of terms (this time as "synonyms of related terms"), I have protected the page for the time being. --EncycloPetey 01:47, 10 August 2011 (UTC)
- I've done my best to clean up most of the junk. ---> Tooironic 01:33, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
- I've cleared out the rest of the cruft. Striking from the list as finally cleaned. -- Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig
