Report concerning User:נריה
editנריה (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • logs • filter log • block user • block log • GUC • CA) Reasons: Edit warring. The user called me three times "troll" in an RFC. I hide the word "troll" because only The Hebrew Wikipedia bureaucrat is authorised to declare a He WP user as a troll. נריה is also a sockpupet of Neriah, and uses נריה for doing actions which Neriah avoids. Please see the signatures here. Please undo these three reversions: 1, 2, 3. נריה continued to call me "troll" also today at 21:10. Please hide the words "troll" also here. Thank you, Louvre|Talk 21:45, 10 February 2025 (UTC)
- Noting that local project bureaucrat's have no special authority on this project. All users should comply with the Meta:Civility policy. — xaosflux Talk 11:02, 14 February 2025 (UTC)

- Already done @Alacoolwiki: you already have this access. Are you having a problem? — xaosflux Talk 11:04, 14 February 2025 (UTC)
- I didn't know that. I had to apply to be an account creator. Thank you @Xaosflux Alacoolwiki (talk) 14:00, 14 February 2025 (UTC)
- You applied for and were granted event organizer permissions last year. The "account creator" group on this project is for ratelimit overrides, but you don't appear to be creating accounts on this project so that shouldn't be an issue. You do seem to be creating accounts on frwiki. If you are hitting the rate limit on frwiki, the local bureaucrats may be able to exempt you there. See w:fr:Wikipédia:Créateur de comptes for local information on that group. — xaosflux Talk 14:23, 14 February 2025 (UTC)

Can this be semi-protected. I do not thing there is a need for us community to edit the page (better leave it to staff.) Special:Diff/28255747 is an example of vandalism to that page by IPs. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 08:27, 16 February 2025 (UTC)
- looks to me like a staff member who accidentally forgot to login [1]. Johannnes89 (talk) 09:10, 16 February 2025 (UTC)
- @Johannnes89 Huh! The name still is visible at https://wikimediafoundation.org/role/staff-contractors/#advancement. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 09:12, 16 February 2025 (UTC)
- they might have forgotten to update the page, but @SGrabarczuk (WMF) undid your revert of the same IP in Wikimedia Foundation/Advancement [2], so it seems correct, at least much more likely that this is not vandalism. Johannnes89 (talk) 09:15, 16 February 2025 (UTC)
- Noted, thanks for following up! ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 09:45, 16 February 2025 (UTC)
