[00:51:57] [Special:CentralAuth/コロナに負けた岬なこ]] @Doug / dmehus There's a bunch of throwaway accounts being made on the chakuwikiwiki, and there's a bunch of ducks going around with "コロナに負けた岬なこ" and "コロナに負けた渡瀬結月" translating to "Nako Misaki lost to Corona" and "Yuzuki Watase lost to Corona". I have no idea what their deal is so far.

[01:39:52] yes [01:40:44] Despite being a kid, he manages to terrorize the wikis with proxy :) [01:45:10] will look [01:46:07] note: this account may not even be him, or he doesn't edit in Miraheze, Doug [01:46:24] .mhca Wariowa [01:46:25] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/Wariowa [01:47:01] I don't see a reason for a local block, let alone a lock, YellowFrogger :) [01:48:03] Yeah, what exactly is his issue on Miraheze? [01:48:57] It hasn't made a single edit. [01:49:35] So what's your point of having that account locked if no edits were made, aside from being an old account anyway? [01:55:13] He does this outside of Miraheze [02:17:52] Remember Josephdrapo? who was reported for copying FANDOM backroom text. He said this to another backcroom wiki: https://backrooms.miraheze.org/wiki/User_talk:Sheep42 [02:17:53] [url] User talk:Sheep42 - The Backrooms | backrooms.miraheze.org [02:34:44] $log Locally hardblocked [[mh:terribletvshows:Special:Contributions/67.253.180.158|67.253.180.158]] on [[mh:terribletvshows|terribletvshowswiki]] for persistent crosswiki abuse [02:34:44] https://mh.wikipedia.org/wiki/terribletvshows:Special:Contributions/67.253.180.158 https://mh.wikipedia.org/wiki/terribletvshows [02:34:53] Saved item "Locally hardblocked [[mh:terribletvshows:Special:Contributions/67.253.180.158|67.253.180.158]] on [[mh:terribletvshows|terribletvshowswiki]] for persistent crosswiki abuse" [02:34:53] https://mh.wikipedia.org/wiki/terribletvshows:Special:Contributions/67.253.180.158 https://mh.wikipedia.org/wiki/terribletvshows [02:39:48] who? [02:43:53] octahedron blocked [02:44:06] with delay [02:44:36] @YellowFrogger Yes. I take that dmehus has been seeing what he has been doing as of now.

[03:09:40] Oh yeah, that actually reminds me dmehus. There's been a bunch of spammers on a certain wiki I've emailed to the Stewards earlier in the past week that has not been checked yet, but I'll link it in a moment. [03:10:25] https://usaha.click/wiki/Special:RecentChanges?hidebots=1&limit=1000&days=180&enhanced=1&urlversion=2 Here you go, in case you were about to ask. In fact, nearly all the pages are like this. https://usaha.click/wiki/Special:AllPages [03:10:34] [url] Recent changes - Usaha | usaha.click [03:10:36] [url] All pages - Usaha | usaha.click [03:19:31] Looking [03:21:30] What am I looking at DarkMatterMan4500? [03:22:12] [[Special:RequestWikiQueue]] [03:22:12] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:RequestWikiQueue [03:23:53] Let me look for it real quick. [03:25:10] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:RequestWikiQueue/19032 dmehus It's this one. [03:25:11] [url] Wiki requests queue - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [03:26:03] It has been getting flooded with spam advertisements for weeks now. I only just started noticing the massive flooding when I was investigating a user's activities from that particular wiki. [03:28:36] yeah [03:29:00] a business directory could be fine, but my issue is that each page links to a commercial webpage [03:29:23] thus I see this as a potential Content Policy violation, in that it's sole purpose is for search engine optimization [03:29:43] Yes, and that's why I reached out to Reception123, and he thought it looked too spammy. I'd say conduct an investigation first. [03:30:16] why an investigation? [03:30:33] There's a lot of likely spam only accounts there, yes, but that would take me a long time ;) [03:31:01] Oh yeah, good point. It would defeat the purpose of closing it, right [03:31:06] s/right/right? [03:31:07] darkmatterman450 meant to say: Oh yeah, good point. It would defeat the purpose of closing it, right? [03:31:28] Sometimes, yes, it makes sense just to delete it actually [03:31:31] not close [03:31:53] I guess deleting that wiki would sound pretty fair. [03:33:43] @Doug please disable the Moderate edit extension on this wiki, thanks [03:33:48] A lot of the users' edits are stale [03:34:04] You mean the crappygachatuberswikiwiki? [03:34:07] why? you mean it has Moderation enabled? [03:34:12] yeah [03:34:21] Or just approved my last edit [03:34:46] I don't see Moderation enabled on this wiki [03:34:53] usahawiki [03:35:33] No, in Crappygachatuberswiki [03:35:46] `usahawiki` was already spammy, but I think YellowFrogger was referring to the `crappygachatuberswikiwiki`. [03:36:04] oh [03:36:16] I thought I disabled the Moderation extension there? [03:36:23] when FatBurn0000 requested it? [03:37:09] https://meta.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&logid=695113 And I see you're actively investigating there now? Moments ago, you said "Why an investigation?". Something change your mind? [03:37:10] [url] All public logs - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [03:37:32] darkmatterman450, yes, [[mh:usaha:Special:ListUsers]] changed my mind ;) [03:37:32] https://mh.wikipedia.org/wiki/usaha:Special:ListUsers [03:37:37] Someone enabled, probably a local bureaucrat [03:38:09] dmehus Yeah, I figured you would do so, despite having to look deeper. [03:39:26] or approve the last edit in Crappygachatuberswiki [03:39:55] nevermind [03:40:02] I don't care [03:40:20] This wiki will be deleted anyway [03:40:39] @YellowFrogger That remains to be seen. [03:42:24] @DarkMatterMan4500 I'm voted, and unfortunately there is this moderation extension. [03:46:43] usaha is only used for commercial purpose by spambots, right? [03:54:49] Correct. [03:55:09] dmehus https://usaha.click/wiki/TERIMA_JADI,_Wa._081-555-436-087,_Harga_Pendopo_Kayu_Glugu_Minimalis_Magelang Care to destroy this godawful spam page by deleting it? [03:55:10] [url] TERIMA JADI, Wa. 081-555-436-087, Harga Pendopo Kayu Glugu Minimalis Magelang - Usaha | usaha.click [03:55:33] DarkMatterMan4500, not needed when I'll be deleting the wiki :) [03:56:10] Oh, but shouldn't you remove its subdomain at first, or would that not required in terms of deleting that useless wiki? [03:57:16] Nah, that'll cause icinga errors when I delete it, but SRE can tackle that easily enough [03:57:28] Reception123 will be up soon, but will mention it to him [03:57:54] Good. I'll message him on a DM letting him about the investigation. [03:59:11] How long have these spam pages and SEO-type pages been there? [03:59:19] Since June 2021. [03:59:37] really? even the obvious spam? [03:59:50] Some pages are potentially good-faith, but others are blatant spam [03:59:50] dmehus Seems like it [03:59:58] hrm [04:01:16] I know. When I stepped foot into that wiki, I went and checked out the recent changes, and it was **HORRENDOUS!** It was nothing but spam utopia. [04:03:19] The domain of the wiki say all. ".click" [04:05:39] Indeed [04:05:55] Spam utopia is a good way of putting it [04:11:23] games of steam are [04:11:44] Are most paid, or am I incorrect? [04:13:37] How do I get a cloak? Communication between discord and irc is not good, to be honest [04:14:28] [[Cloaks]] [04:14:28] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Cloaks [04:14:29] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Cloaks?action=edit&redlink=1 [04:14:30] [url] Cloaks - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [04:14:35] I will learn this.. [04:15:01] Cloaks are for IRC. You're not on IRC, therefore, you do not need one [04:15:16] yeah, I will to IRC also [04:15:17] maybe [04:15:37] [[Cloak]] [04:15:37] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Cloak [04:15:37] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Cloak?action=edit&redlink=1 [04:15:39] [url] Cloak - Miraheze Meta | meta.miraheze.org [04:15:40] well, tbh, you can just get a standard @user cloak from Libera.Chat [04:16:11] I think they even have an automated or semi-automated process for requesting them. [04:24:03] Who did I request a cloak? [04:25:34] 🆘 [04:32:53] Let's revisit that after your join IRC. [04:33:22] For the time being, you'd need to join IRC, then request a Libera.Chat cloak. If you're reasonably active on IRC, that can be requested [04:39:40] I would like that because the response time is fast and users would respond. But, I will never have IRC, this chat is very bad. I prefer Discord :) [04:39:55] Privacy issues too [04:41:43] Thank you for your opinion. [04:44:23] Afraid to know the meaning of these comments. [04:44:34] @Agent Afraid to know the meaning of these comments. [04:45:14] Take it at face value, no double meaning. [04:45:44] How? [04:46:04] What are you trying to say? [05:01:02] That's why a cloak is not needed. We don't do proactive IRC cloaks. Users have to be active and established on IRC [05:01:08] m [05:01:11] hm [05:01:53] If you change your mind and want to be active on IRC, I'd suggest IRCCloud, www.irccloud.com, which will mask your IP address. Once you're sufficiently active, a cloak can be requested :) [05:02:09] It was just a misunderstanding of the above messages. It's good to forget. But I will continue on Discord [05:02:23] okay, SGTM too 👍 [05:02:25] And thanks for messages :) [05:02:29] np :) [13:59:16] https://9b9t.miraheze.org/w/index.php?diff=1496&oldid=1495&rcid=1748 I have detected a Code of Conduct violation in the form of an edit summary.
