How can i disable or delete an user in mediawiki? I can delete the records from the db but i am not sure if this would affect anything else in the wiki. Any suggestions would be welcome

Thanks Prady

There's a special page that Admin users can see, /Special:BlockIP. Block them there.

You can also get to it from the Special Pages page, /Special:SpecialPages.
