[00:25:39] Wiki feed can be a good skim, but tbh I haven't found a workflow that makes checking it randomly an efficient thing to do [00:31:08] yeah, I'd agree with that. It also doesn't tell the whole story (nor should it, though) [00:33:02] It seems to me that cvt feed, recent wiki creations and 'gut instinct' with certain regular places are the most likely ways to automatically discover issues [00:35:35] yep [00:36:30] and this channel, plus I do try and review the [[:mh:cvt:CVT action log]] if I've been away for a few days, too, and certain wiki-specific feeds [00:36:30] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/:mh:cvt:CVT_action_log [00:39:26] But it looks like you're still actively investigating the jayuvandalwiki based on the confirmation of sockpuppetry that I was given by Angel Pearl under that account, aren't you, @Doug?

The sockpuppet templates exist for a reason, and that would be to tag sockpuppets.) https://besttvshows.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Topic:Wjinukm8pk0fuf0m&topic_showPostId=wjiocum1vb9ftlsp#flow-post-wjiocum1vb9ftlsp (This comment made by this guy caught my attention, as a new user shouldn't know what that was supposed to be, unless they're a sockpuppet [15:04:41] of a banned editor).

They were originally blocked for making poorly-made pages with poor grammar and creating a page for a fake logo (https://closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/ThePBSArchive2020), but have since made countless sockpuppet accounts and is one of the most persistent LTAs on the CLG Wiki. They have continued [16:32:20] making poorly-written pages and have even gone so far as to make spam/vandal pages like “Jesus Christ Bomb Head Productions” (https://closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=Jesus_Christ_Bomb_Head_Television) and making personal attacks and death wishes/threats to others users (https://closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Workpoint_Entertainment&diff=prev&oldid=138068, [16:32:20] https://closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Workpoint_Entertainment&diff=prev&oldid=138039). Someone who I suspect is very likely their most recent sock, Betty Paltingca, has been doing the same act of making pages with very poor grammar. What gives them away is that they used the phrase “the logo was shines” in their description for this page [16:32:21] (https://closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Patchett_Kaufman_Entertainment&oldid=149513), which has been used by other PBSArchive socks like GirlMeetsWorldDisneyChannel Fansite (https://closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=WNMU&oldid=61761) and JavenMorehouseOnCLG (https://closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Princessa_Productions&oldid=138059). A full list of all their socks can be found here. I [16:32:21] added the Betty account to that list ahead of time since it’s almost certainly a PBSArchive sock. https://closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org/wiki/UserWiki:JavenMorehouseonCLG [16:32:22] [url] All public logs - CLG Wiki | closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org [16:32:22] [url] Difference between revisions of "Workpoint Entertainment" - CLG Wiki | closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org [16:32:22] [url] Patchett Kaufman Entertainment - CLG Wiki | closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org [16:32:22] [url] User contributions for ThePBSArchive2020 - CLG Wiki | closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org [16:32:23] [url] UserWiki:JavenMorehouseonCLG - CLG Wiki | closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org [16:32:25] [url] Difference between revisions of "Workpoint Entertainment" - CLG Wiki | closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org [16:32:25] [url] WNMU - CLG Wiki | closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org [16:32:26] [url] Princessa Productions - CLG Wiki | closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org [16:34:15] Good report, and I was going to report them earlier, but your report saved me all the trouble. I'm sure that @Doug could give it a look, if he's around at some point. [19:04:05] @RhinosF1 I'm confused with your block against TheDarkestForest. How were they abusing multiple accounts? [19:05:00] Because no one joins us and wikipedia and instantly asks for their account deleted [19:05:26] You think a CheckUser might be warranted if it's necessary? [19:05:33] Yes [19:06:06] I do agree with the narrative that no brand new user would immediately ask for their "old" account to get deleted. That's suspicious if you ask me. [19:06:42] No one said old [19:06:57] And if it walks talks and smells like a troll [19:07:01] It's a troll [19:07:10] Oh yeah. That's true. [19:07:28] Kind of like [[w:WP:DUCK]] [19:07:28] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:DUCK [19:07:28] Just because I'm too tired to work out which, doesn't mean I can't block you [19:07:28] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:DUCK [19:07:29] [wikipedia] WP:DUCK | "The duck test – "If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck" – suggests that something can be identified by its habitual characteristics.The duck test does not apply to non-obvious cases.
