Global lock for User:SideMontero

Hi there,

I would like to know the reason behind the global lock for User:SideMontero?

He is my fellow Wikimedian from Dar es Salaam. He has done tremendous work for the past years. Any particular reasons that led to his global lock?

Please advise. _User:Muddyb ^(Talk) 06:02, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

@Muddyb, not only SideMontero, thousands of accounts have been locked. Now they have started to unlock some of them. I wonder what is the reason for this? @WMFOffice, please advise. Nemoralis (talk) 15:27, 26 March 2025 (UTC)
