Semi-protect Category:CommonsRoot

Can an admin please semi-protect Category:CommonsRoot? Since November last year, the page has been unintentionally edited by newcomers at least once per month. Thanks. Tvpuppy (talk) 00:49, 13 June 2026 (UTC)

If a device is blocked, info about how the poster knows about a block, any error messages visible, and what kind of device is blocked would be helpful at COM:HD. Queries about bricked devices should be handled by device manufacturers or their representatives.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 10:34, 17 June 2026 (UTC)

Please block the sock

Can someone please block Bhartiyanaagrik (talk · contributions · Statistics · Recent activity · block log · User rights log · uploads · Global account information). He is a sock of 8diq as proved by CU on enwiki. Please see global account information. (Not informing the user on their TP knowingly bcoz there is no need). Shaan SenguptaTalk 13:27, 16 June 2026 (UTC)

@Lymantria, incase CU tag is needed. Thanks. Shaan SenguptaTalk 13:29, 16 June 2026 (UTC)
✓ Done Blocked. @Shaan Sengupta: Please give a link to SPI when you report some socks. Thanks, Yann (talk) 14:24, 16 June 2026 (UTC)
@Yann, I didn't give SPI link bcoz I couldn't find one (probably there is no SPI for this sockfarm on Commons). The last time I caught 8diq's socking I made a report on COM:AN. This is the reason I referred Global account info and enwiki. Anyways, thanks for the advice. Shaan SenguptaTalk 14:38, 16 June 2026 (UTC)
On a side note, the uploads are all ok to host, but need a lot of fixes and cleanups. I've done it in some of 'em. Anyone (preferably from India as there maybe some local only sites) interested can take over from here. Shaan SenguptaTalk 14:49, 16 June 2026 (UTC)
