[05:48:49] Okay, locked. [09:06:26] @Ugochimobi: Special:AbuseLog is very useful [09:07:51] That definitely looks like it's worth sending a steward in [09:07:59] To do some checks & locks [09:08:35] @Void maybe when you wake up [09:08:39] Fanfictionwiki [09:09:52] Yup [09:10:07] Because those usernames seems to be a disaster! [09:10:21] They come in randomly in 5s and 6s everyday [09:11:17] RhinosF1: So for me doing a check on at least one of the users from one day would help us know where we're standing. [09:13:41] Stewards know what to do [09:14:19] You are spewing nonsense on your talk page [09:14:23] Yep. [09:14:30] They're spam only accounts blocked by an abuse filter [09:14:39] The wiki ain't as popular as Wikipedia [09:15:09] RhinosF1: That one i was JK. [09:15:23] You're not helping users though [09:15:33] Wdym? [09:15:55] How do you mean I'm not helping users? [09:16:12] Saying random jokes that aren't funny just confuses them [09:16:21] And you don't actually seem to know what you're saying [09:16:45] Seriously? Well I know what I'm saying. [09:18:26] You could have answered with as simple as you can see on Special:AbuseLog on your wiki, some of these accounts are being blocked as they are trying to spam. We have measures in place as a farm to prevent spam and they seem to be working but I will ask a steward to disable and block the accounts. [09:18:41] Of course it's a random name generator [09:18:55] The fact the numbers change doesn't stop it being one set of spammers [10:30:46] Thank you. [15:54:25] [Special:CentralAuth/마리오짱]] Not sure about these 2, but it seems like they were only here for vandalism. Do correct me if I'm wrong. [15:54:25] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/마리오짱 https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/프로페타_킴 [15:54:27] [url] Global account information for 마리오짱 - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [15:54:30] [url] Global account information for 프로페타 킴 - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [15:56:42] Hmm, i see blanking and inserting same phrase 1000x times, so likely yes. [15:56:56] @DarkMatterMan4500 they're already blocked locally and haven't even attached an account to other wikis, is there any reason why you think they're lock worthy? [15:57:27] If a user vandalises one wiki only there's usually not really a need for a lock unless the vandalism is really egregious or if they're abusing multiple accounts [15:57:57] Looks like this is same person on 2 accounts? 😆 [15:58:26] @Reception123 (Away) Wasn't sure if the entire page blanking and insertion of nonsense, like these would be necessary: https://playentry.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=%EC%97%94%ED%8A%B8%EB%A6%AC/%EC%9C%A0%EC%A0%80_%EB%AA%A9%EB%A1%9D&oldid=1254 https://playentry.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=%EA%B9%80%EC%9E%94%EC%83%81&oldid=1089 https://playentry.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=%EC%8B%9C%EC%A6%90&oldid=1159 [15:58:29] [url] 엔트리/유저 목록 - 엔트리 위키 | playentry.miraheze.org [15:58:30] [url] 김잔상 - 엔트리 위키 | playentry.miraheze.org [15:58:36] yeah, I guess it's fine to lock but if this is just a one time vandal it would've probably been fine to just have the local blocks [15:58:49] [url] 시즐 - 엔트리 위키 | playentry.miraheze.org [16:09:06] @Reception123 (Away) Right. [17:01:42] https://login.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Dot Isn't this kind of misleading here? I went and checked the user's edits on the Global Account Information on the user, and there's no indication that the user is a Wiki Creator. [17:01:42] [url] User:Dot - Miraheze Login Wiki | login.miraheze.org [17:02:44] They probably think wiki creator is what you're called when you request a wiki and have it "created" [17:03:02] I'd like to hear from OTHER admins here. [17:03:03] A simple notice on their talk page might suffice to clarify this [17:03:34] of course, but I'm saying that there's been lots of circumstances where this happens [17:04:04] In this case you should be quiet in this channel, if here is some question :) [17:04:22] Okay then. [17:05:53] I do think a reminder might help in this case, though. [17:28:35] https://aboutpcs.miraheze.org/wiki/Fuck_off This needs to be removed. [17:28:36] [url] Fuck off - About PCs Wiki | aboutpcs.miraheze.org [18:03:03] Reception|away: or @MrJaroslavik: can you just delete the Dot page [18:03:09] I kinda have a theory [18:06:27] @RhinosF1 What should be reason? 😅 [18:24:02] A bunch of blatant nonsense [18:27:36] Ok [18:28:58] I know this probably isn't the right place to request this, but is it okay if my old account gets globally locked? I have no intention of ever using it again: https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Stewards%27_noticeboard#Question [18:29:05] [url] Stewards' noticeboard - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [18:48:33] There's 2 types of locks you could ask for, a lock and recoverable vanish (which means your account is locked and renamed to something else and hidden but you can recover it later) or a permanent lock and permanent vanish (your account is locked, renamed, and cannot be recovered ever again) [18:48:53] However, as far as I know, Stewards process that or Trust and Safety for the latter [19:00:15] So if I have the account locked, that means it has to be hidden as well? [19:00:56] It depends if it's offensive or not. In your case, no. [19:01:34] well, if you just want it locked but not vanished, I think you could request that [19:02:03] I've seen sysops lock people and put the reason as "Self-requested lock" [19:02:15] That's typically normal. [19:17:30] Voidwalker: please see my ping to do a spambot check per Ugochimobi TP on fanfictionwiki [19:18:59] Guess it's spambot hunting season again. [19:24:34] It always is
