May drop breadcrumbs as you suggest [01:00:31] @Joseph Raidarr* [01:01:05] @Doug To elaborate on Napalm's case, I found that this person may have a connection to Gigdsclasp instead of Anti villain, due to him re-adding the same stub template on the same article that Gigdsclasp slapped on there earlier. https://reallifevillains.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Diff/134976 (Napalm) https://reallifevillains.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Diff/130180 (Gigdsclasp) (already locked, but is worth looking at.

[01:26:35] @Doug I'm quite shocked of what you found. [01:50:14] Indeed. [01:51:06] Just why would Gigdsclasp or Anti villain go out of his way of impersonating someone like that? [01:53:49] That is uncertain. It's possible, but more likely to be long-term abuse, as I indicated. Either way, it's abuse of multiple accounts, though [01:54:55] Now, what about 엔펄? https://jayuvandal.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=%EC%82%AC%EC%9A%A9%EC%9E%90%ED%86%A0%EB%A1%A0:%EC%97%94%ED%8E%84&oldid=25658 Didn't you say you'd look into this one too, even if I'm saying this in public?

One thing that surprised me was that how he managed to use both EnchanterPE1992 and EnchanterPE to try and avoid scrutiny there. [10:44:09] It was a relatively clever trick to get some time, but no match for proper scrutiny... which to be fair, most global functionaries don't have much time to do when a place looks genuine enough at a glance. [11:15:06] @CVT, extreme targeting of a wiki apparently from Fandom-based users coming into the community. Only applies to the one wiki, but here is a more severe example of the ongoing activity. https://smash.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:CookiesandCream01&oldid=49 [11:15:07] [url] User talk:CookiesandCream01 - Super Smash Bros. Wiki | smash.miraheze.org [11:39:57] [Special:CentralAuth/DiscoKing20]] These accounts were apparently created with the intention to cause disruption, specifically demanding they "work" for that particular wiki, with diffs to prove it: https://smash.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Ryu&oldid=36 (Justdancefan2) https://smash.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Ness_is_a_legend&oldid=23 (DiscoKing20, before the disruption ensued) [11:39:58] https://smash.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Ness_is_a_legend&oldid=28 (DiscoKing20 resorting to personal attacks against a user just for not accepting their request) Not sure what else is there, but all I can say that the Justdancefan2 account is clearly here to troll and cause disruption. [11:39:58] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/DiscoKing20 https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/Justdancefan2 [11:39:58] [url] Ryu - Super Smash Bros.

So definitely something to glance at. [11:58:29] I do see MrJaroslavik has handled Happyman13, the death threat user. [12:02:19] Indeed he has. [12:06:51] I'm telling ya, this query + looking through recent creations really does help you find things. It's how I discovered the Smash business in the first place :p https://meta.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Special:WikiDiscover&dir=prev&sort=wiki_creation&language=en&category=any&state=active&visibility=public [12:06:52] [url] WikiDiscover - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [12:07:17] Ah, I see.

[14:55:44] Behaviorally PillowPepper and Crazy Taxi seem about identical when looking at their contribs too, and PillowPepper is roaming free on Ugly Logos wiki as seen in CA above.

[15:59:17] That's what, 4 in one day, not very subtle :p [15:59:46] This has been happening since last November, and it's been annoying. [16:01:00] I'm afraid the only long term remedy is on the lines of what I've stated before; attention is their goal and giving them hardly any is most effective in subliminally persuading them that the activities are a waste of time. Evidence of frustration is the very thing they want. [16:02:12] As long as I keep reporting them here, they'll be locked a bit quicker. [16:07:56] Naturally the reports help. I simply mean the frustration itself. A clerical task, rather than a personal one. [16:34:21] @Doug Thanks for handling the LTA case, but now we have concerns that DiscoKong20 and Justdancefan2 might be sockpuppets created to target someone, and the additional account, Happyman13 was locked, but not sure if they have a connection to the other 2, but it's highly suspect. [16:35:00] What makes me curious in ^ case is if the suppressed revisions contain evidence to take further action as I asked on the wiki locally. [16:35:30] Doug could possibly look into that too. [16:43:17] DarkMatterMan4500, LTA should be done [16:44:39] will look at the other shortly [16:45:00] Thanks. In addition to what I said above, there was one person from the smashwiki who apparently created an account to troll users and to send them threats, but it's worth mentioning that one of the diffs are now hidden by an administrator: https://smash.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=User%20talk:CookiesandCream01&diff=prev&oldid=48 [16:45:01] [url] Difference between revisions of "User talk:CookiesandCream01" - Super Smash Bros. Wiki | smash.miraheze.org [16:45:06] Very good, thanks. [16:53:14] Also worth noting a portion of the activities were performed by an IP editor; I'll link an example provided by CookiesandCream: https://smash.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Heihachi_Mishima&diff=cur&oldid=56 [16:53:15] [url] Difference between revisions of "Heihachi Mishima" - Super Smash Bros. Wiki | smash.miraheze.org [17:02:42] Doesn't seem like there's more to do from a global perspective tnough. [17:04:37] Nope, but it does look like sockpuppetry is involved here. [17:15:43] Wow, smashwiki is a mess [17:17:46] Indeed it is. [17:18:21] Which was why this had to be brought to Steward's attention. [17:19:48] I'd like to think the active problem is neutralized. [17:20:20] Tbh, current attention is just followup to a situation that was locally handled. [17:49:39] @Doug Are you serious? You're telling me that CookiesandCream01 was behind those accounts this whole time? [17:52:37] This is quite surprising, given the surprise I have received yesterday regarding an impostor that Gigdsclasp and/or Anti villain. [17:55:59] Indeed. [17:56:47] dmehus: if a user has been making death threats, we shouldn't be giving warnings. [17:57:03] So apparently they sent death threats to themselves. How childish. [17:57:34] @RhinosF1 The problem is, they apparently sent it to themselves, and that's how Doug caught them in the act. [17:57:59] which is even more reason personally to lock them [17:58:20] it's deceptive, abuse of multiple accounts and a blatant conduct violation [17:58:42] Yes, I absolutely agree with that statement. [17:58:49] dmehus: did my emails about test3 make sense?

[18:38:18] That wiki lives up to its name [18:52:38] yeah [18:57:31] dmehus: did you see the email [18:58:03] Spookreeeno, haven't looked yet, let me look now [19:05:06] Spookreeeno, replied [19:12:12] dmehus: I'm not sure you understood. [19:29:05] Spookreeeno, I think I did? [19:29:24] dmehus: you kept mentioning enabling stuff [19:29:29] tbh it's messy [19:30:15] re accounts, they'll be copied over but we don't know whether you'll be able to use your password or whether we'll start with everyone locked. [19:32:17] erm, I wouldn't support retaining local user accounts in that scenario [19:32:20] just start fresh [19:32:41] and create separate user accounts upon request to trusted users [19:33:34] @Doug Could you look into Jeudb and the suspected sockpuppets who were using similar comments as Jabgidge? [19:33:55] DarkMatterMan4500, let me find your report [19:35:09] Okay. Reception123 did lock Jabgidge for Code of Conduct violations by making anti-Semitic comments about Nickelodeon. [19:36:07] oh you didn't have a report with links already [19:36:10] as far as I can tell [19:39:41] [[Special:UserRights/Dmehus@terribletvshowswiki]] [19:39:41] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:UserRights/Dmehus%40terribletvshowswiki [19:44:54] Yeah, the links to the comments were already linked here, but were from a week and a half ago. [19:50:16] You can always ask @Reception123 if Jabgidge made those comments, as I've sent him the comment logs directly linking his inappropriate comments to Jabgidge. You could be able to tell right away from those other 4 accounts who made similar comments. [19:58:28] :BanHammerMH: [19:59:04] So they were confirmed to be the same person. Not surprised by that [20:03:45] @Doug But wait, what about Angel Pearl's new account that was made after their original account was locked? https://jayuvandal.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=%EC%82%AC%EC%9A%A9%EC%9E%90%ED%86%A0%EB%A1%A0:%EC%97%94%ED%8E%84&diff=prev&oldid=25658 Especially with this confirmation?

[23:57:45] I do check the #wiki-feed, or at times, the User rights log.
