This is a place where users can communicate with administrators, or administrators with one another. You can report vandalism, problematic users, or anything else that needs an administrator's intervention. Do not report child pornography or other potentially illegal content here; e-mail legal-reportswikimedia.org instead. If reporting threatened harm to self or others also email emergencywikimedia.org.
Vandalism []	User problems []	Blocks and protections []	Other []
Report users for clear cases of vandalism. Block requests for any other reason should be reported to the blocks and protections noticeboard.

Requests for page protection/unprotection could also be requested here.	Other reports that require administrator assistance which do not fit in any of the previous three noticeboards may be reported here. Requests for history merging or splitting should be filed at COM:HMS.

Yogi Yolk

User: Yogi Yolk (talk · contributions · Move log · block log · uploads · Abuse filter log) block user
Reason for reporting: Long-term abuse. LTA sock, see enwiki XReport --All the Best -- Chuck ^Talk 18:34, 25 February 2026 (UTC)

@Alachuckthebuck: I don't see any issue on Commons, as these chemical diagrams do not have a copyright. Am I missing something? Yann (talk) 18:43, 25 February 2026 (UTC)

They actually do, the article they are sourced from is copyrighted, and the diagrams are above TOO. All the Best -- Chuck ^Talk 19:10, 25 February 2026 (UTC)

It's not copyrighted I drew the images by hand using my own software. Ofcourse the drawings were made using the cited referenced material but I was only advised not to copy the material from patents not that I couldn't use doi entities as the reference point. I can show you a direct copyright infringement because it is copy & pasted: https://www.chemicalbook.com/article/how-to-synthesis-relugolix.htm --Yogi Yolk (talk) 21:42, 25 February 2026 (UTC)

 Done. I blocked the user indefinitely due to abusing multiple accounts. Generally we trust en.wiki checkusers. Taivo (talk) 14:58, 26 February 2026 (UTC)

Thanks Taivo. I was tempted to do that, but I couldn't find any related account on Commons. Is there any? No other account is mention here: en:Special:Contributions/Yogi Yolk. Should the uploads be deleted? Yann (talk) 15:15, 26 February 2026 (UTC)

Yann: Which other account? Taivo: Which en.wiki checkusers?   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 15:37, 26 February 2026 (UTC)

Sorry, I mean "No other account". Yann (talk) 15:46, 26 February 2026 (UTC)

@DMacks: as blocking admin in en.wiki (also admin in Commons) can explain, if (s)he wants. Taivo (talk) 19:10, 26 February 2026 (UTC)

Nuklear has been abusing enwiki, including via commons images, which includes sometimes trying to only use different accounts on each site, for over 15 years with so many socks that most of us on enwiki don't bother tagging them anymore. DMacks (talk) 13:26, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

@DMacks: I didn't see any link to en:Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nuklear in the block summary, and Yogi Yolk is not in the sockpuppet categories of Nuklear. Yann (talk) 17:03, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

I think I loused up the reply indentation. I'm responding to Taivo's ping, but it's to support Jeff G.'s and your request for more info also (and why I'm happy to explain my actions, but per DFTT/DENY/RBI it wasn't tagged). DMacks (talk) 17:17, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

@DMacks: Fine. I blocked all accounts listed as socks on English Wikipedia: Category:Sockpuppets of Nuklear. Feel free to delete or request deletion of files per DENY. Yann (talk) 17:33, 1 March 2026 (UTC)
