I think it should be clear of the context in which this thread has
developed- that of obviously offensive or disruptive usernames; I have only
this evening seen accounts auto-created on en:wiki by a known vandal that
have obviously been created on other wikis in the hope that somehow they
will slip under the radar. I've blocked on en-wiki, but that does not stop
the perpetrator vandalising other wikis right now. My suggestion of an
automated request to globally block remains; it would still be up to the
stewards on Meta to decide.
Cheers.
