Editor is one in a series of IP editors from the Philippines who are disruptively editing articles on king crabs (Lithodidae) for seemingly no reason. Mitch Ames and I are constantly having to revert their garbage, and they even directly reference this months-long, ongoing issue with their first edit and edit summary, where they vandalize the article Neolithodes by calling it a "genus of Mitch Ames" and summarize the edit as "Mitch Ames, come here." Unambiguously the same sort of spammer that's been blocked here before. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 14:33, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@TheTechnician27 not exactly spam in the sense this board is set up for but do you have any other recent IPs? I'm happy to look into it but you'll have to tell me where to look. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 15:22, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@HJ Mitchell: Hi, HJ, sorry I came to the wrong board. I've only got the one right now, which is 143.44.169.184, as all the past ones that I know of have since been blocked. They always seem to be affiliated with since-blocked sockpuppets like Michael2176, and I genuinely have no idea why this person is on the warpath about these niche crab articles. I've checked my watchlist and haven't seen anything else like this recently (although I really need to declutter that thing). This editor seems to pop up just every once in a while since spring 2024 to make disruptive changes to articles. And the weird thing is that they sometimes seem like they genuinely want to advance these articles (for example, they did make semi-accurate edits recently that needed some touching up), but at the same time their edits often constitute extremely obvious synthesis, baseless original research, or factual inaccuracies that need correction and copy-editing (and sometimes they're just outright vandalism).

Oh, actually, HJ Mitchell, the username Michael 281818 recently edited Neolithodes and fits the exact same name pattern as the previous accounts editing this hyper-niche topic also with the name 'Mike' or 'Michael' followed by a bunch of numbers (e.g. Michael2176 and its various sockpuppets). TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 15:57, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's something to go on. I can run a check on those and see if I can find a range to block or something else that might work. Leave it with me for 24-48 hours. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:29, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I had a quick look through my edits/reversions on everything under Category:King crabs, and came up with the list of editors who I have reverted:
It's not necessarily 100% correct, and some of these have already been blocked, but it may help this investigation. Mitch Ames (talk) 12:31, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
