Patrickau, normally we would start using longer and longer blocks in order to get them to stop, like you have been doing. But as I mentioned, this IP range is also used by one of our registered users. In this case, it's WiKiAN, who has rollback rights and over 8000 edits.

What we are going to have to do is to use short blocks, 1 or 3 days at a time. We keep doing this so that WiKiAN isn't permanently shut out, but the vandal does get blocked. We keep doing this until they get bored and go away.

Now, if this goes on through about the middle of April, then we will start blocking 1 or 2 weeks at a time. I know this is a nuisance and a both, but if we don't do it this way, we have to say goodbye to WiKiAN.
