More recent socks may target the talk pages of people who have been involved in countering this vandal. They have also targeted this page and the BMX On WheeIs SPI. Additionally, socks frequently target Wikimedia projects other than the English Wikipedia, usually projects in English, notably Meta-Wiki, Wikivoyage, and Wikimedia Commons. Socks often upload China-related images to Commons and then spam the image on other projects. As of February 2025, the non-Wikimedia project RationalWiki has also been targeted.

Habitual behavior

Usernames usually, but not always, reference "fuerdai", "on wheels", or any of the topics that they frequently vandalize (which are listed above). Vandalism typically involves the same phrases and may reference wealth, China, or technology. Non-Latin characters and alternate spellings (for example, "fouerdai", "富二代", "Fuㅌrdㅂi", and "phuerdai") are also frequently used to circumvent edit filters.

This user's user talk page vandalism may involve abuse of warning templates, such as giving users warnings for "reverting fuerdai vandalism" or similar, or changing section titles. Sometimes, the vandal will vandalize both articles and user talk pages by adding disruptive images. These images are uploaded by socks solely to vandalize with and typically reference the same things as their text-based vandalism. Any vandalism-only images need to be nominated for deletion on Commons.

Socks also frequently put sexual comments in their edit summaries and edits including “Frozen Wee”, "My testicles are going up and down up down up down up down" or "My testicles are going back and forth and back and forth", and/or claiming that various Marvel Cinematic Universe characters performed sexual acts on each other or with the user.

BMX On WheeIs often targets BLPs and at times introduces severe BLP violations. Request revision deletion as warranted.

Socks may also cause disruption on Commons, Meta, zhwiki, or any English-language Wiki project besides Wikipedia, and should be reported to Steward Requests on meta to be globally locked.

As of February 2025, this user has started targeting the non-Wikimedia project RationalWiki. Over there, they started with the "On Wheels" and "fuerdai" phrasing, but have since moved on to spamming China related articles with random medical spam links.

Other notes

The username "BMX On WheeIs" is spelled with a capital I; this was likely done to avoid triggering Willy on Wheels-related abuse filters. In all caps it looks like "BMX ON WHEEIS", and in lowercase it looks like "bmx on wheeis".

Any future suspected sockpuppets need to be reported to Steward Requests on metawiki.
