Security should be the key at this stage for this issue.
We need to ensure we do not add or include such people. We need to get as much details and escalate to the highest management or inform the Wikipedia.org there is a place you can report about it -like the bug -create one and inform about it.
This way the forum stays more secured. We need to create some firewalls or ensure some encryption to prevent such incidents.
hope this way we can find a way or reach out to the management. Please dig the archive and see the management line...
Thanks & Best Regards Sri

I am not sure if this is appropriate here, but I do not know where to ask otherwise...
On Beta Wikiversity someone is active now who uses the project as his personal notepad/sandbox. The pages created in Dutch are short Wikipedia articles, copy of a message of the yearplan of WMNL, texts of Wikisource, Wikinews articles, and for every person he contacted he creates a page. In his communication towards those people he presents himself as Wikiversity and says such in these pages. All these pages do not contain educational content.
Another major issue is that private information is added to these pages, privacy violation for no reason.
Another issue is the adding of copyrighted material
Because of there is no Dutch community there, nobody takes action. At the moment the Dutch chapter is working on setting up an education program, but the current material would discredit the attempt and we do not consider it realistic to start up this project at Beta Wikiversity.
How to act?
