[00:33:51] can someone help me [00:34:09] a user went crazy and is trying to delete all my wiki [00:35:14] Can you provide a link? [00:35:53] jwiki.miraheze.org [00:36:12] LOL [00:36:33] @tali64 He's talking about me. [00:36:45] I deleted all my user pages [00:36:58] you deleted the homepage [00:37:06] I didn't [00:37:47] Ro simply replaced its content; the original version is still available in the page history [00:38:09] you're really giving Jehovah's name a good reputation here [00:38:22] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/443926951292567562/1219444822767571104/image0.jpg?ex=660b537d&is=65f8de7d&hm=17b05443e133bef6b4c0e95e5913d71daa51369bf37b07751ac46132a7c46e8f& [00:38:23] No, what he refers to are the two red links [00:38:36] Wait what? [00:38:43] That's not true [00:39:02] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/443926951292567562/1219444991240310784/image.png?ex=660b53a6&is=65f8dea6&hm=1909e1732cf9a3597566e635c33c8965209ff0ba700cb30580ab7e5e31fcba2e& [00:39:14] You visited "Main page" instead of "Main Page"; MediaWiki page titles are case sensitive, so you visited a nonexistent page instead of the main page as intended [00:39:52] Anyway, it doesn't look like any actual content of substance has been affected, so this is not actionable by CVT [00:40:11] you should have told me you were doing this [00:40:18] especially as a Christian [00:40:30] Please take this in PM [00:40:50] i sent you a message on telegram [00:40:54] you never responded [00:40:59] I endorse this as this conversation isn't really related to CVT [00:41:32] @tali64 check your telegrams [00:42:04] I don't have a Telegram account; Discord has a built-in DM feature that you can use [00:42:17] you do have a telegram account and it says you were using it 2 hours ago [00:42:23] now it says youre online. stop lying [00:43:18] Can you provide a link to this supposed Telegram account of mine? [00:43:32] nvm you're not the person i thought i was talking to [00:44:15] @brandoncote Please leave this channel [00:44:42] i need to know how much of the main page you deleted [00:46:26] I'm so confused https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User_talk:Reidling123#Note_from_Fiona_Rocks [00:47:47] They're talking about a "How to Make X Things Y" wiki, which has been requested several times but has been declined for a lack of information; there may also be a connection to reception wikis [00:48:18] @tali64 I am sorry for this mess. [00:48:31] It's alright [00:49:02] Honestly just do a purge 50 [00:49:29] you should have told me before you were gonna rage-delete all this stuff [00:49:41] i'm the one who deserves the apology [00:49:48] Leave, please. [00:52:12] A common practice in the wiki world is to test things in userspace and then delete once no longer needed; it appears that everything Ro deleted was simply userspace tests and there's no indication otherwise [01:08:59] [1/4] I've tried to explain it on Telegram, but he was refering to [01:08:59] [2/4] these red links. [01:09:00] [3/4] The problem is, they were not deleted, just not written yet, and he doesn't seem to grasp that one has to write them first to be shown. They change automatically 🙂 [01:09:00] [4/4] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/443926951292567562/1219452527964065852/image.png?ex=660b5aaa&is=65f8e5aa&hm=fad55e8efeff8559efd6b4059481600c29fdf932db048953eb19525d325f8252& [01:10:23] [1/2] It was for all the drama in those telegram chats, I cut the ties with him and his wiki. [01:10:23] [2/2] I only deleted my own user pages. [01:11:09] https://tenor.com/view/thumbs-up-double-thumbs-up-like-agreed-yup-gif-14284264219182206721 [01:17:10] any ideas on how to try and make my wiki's homepage look good? [01:17:18] https://arosi.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page [01:17:38] this would be better for #general, cvt is for vandalism related reports [01:17:45] oh, sorry [01:23:44] That's actually a pretty good idea yeah [01:24:46] I love how CA just ignored that whole convo lol [01:24:52] lmao [01:49:50] Whar did I miss lol? I just replied to a ping I definitely didn't see anything else [01:51:59] https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/443926951292567562/1219452528195010661 [01:52:18] IDK if you're just joking and saw it but didn't reply because it's a weird convo [01:52:36] bump to make sure nobody misses the message [01:53:08] oh lol I didn't see it [01:53:25] Lol yea [02:10:24] Range nixed, but I can't seem to get adequate permissions to remove CS entries [02:10:33] Either way, dealt with [03:28:18] @CVT https://greatcharacters.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Kristofferson [03:30:14] <.labster> Hm, seems lockable [03:30:44] wonder if that account is compromised actually because they had a lot of normal contributions before this [03:31:43] <.labster> Those don't look like normal contribs [03:33:03] oh [03:33:10] https://greatcharacters.miraheze.org/wiki/UserWiki:The_Super_MarioBobFan_Bros._Movie also can you delete this (created by vandal) [03:33:22] use [[mh:dev:WHAM]] if there's a lot to cleanup [03:33:22] https://mh.wikipedia.org/wiki/dev:WHAM [03:33:23] [03:34:40] [1/2] seems normal [03:34:41] [2/2] https://greatcharacters.miraheze.org/wiki/Kristofferson_Silverfox [03:34:57] Deleted [03:35:29] yeah I noticed [03:35:35] <.labster> Honestly it looks like an obsession with one or two characters, then vandalism linked to those characters [03:35:59] The vandalism didn't seem to mention those characters [03:36:03] And the vandalism occurred months later [03:36:48] Normally this type of vandalism would've been caught by the filter, but since the user was autoconfirmed the filter intentionally didn't catch it; I doubt it'll happen again, but if it does that could be an issue that needs to be fixed [03:37:04] Alr [03:38:22] <.labster> I threw up a 3 month lock on that wiki defensively [03:38:35] <.labster> https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/443926951292567562/1219490176972361818/Screen_Shot_2024-03-18_at_8.36.45_PM.png?ex=660b7dbb&is=65f908bb&hm=dc6fa1dd856d9e0c880e12729690d6a8caef4dc0be50588ebb3fa062800feb92& [03:38:50] <.labster> seems like same thing to me [03:40:24] Oh I see [03:40:26] Interesting [03:40:59] Yeah, this is def alt abuse w/ a sleeper acct [03:41:16] Diving into it, going to be messy. 😦 [03:41:25] <.labster> have fun! [03:42:15] I see, that's unfortunate [03:43:17] <.labster> I didn't do a global lock because they only seem to edit one wiki, so in theory that community might want to deal with it? But NA may find out more. [03:44:05] I think vandalism-only account locks apply even if it's one wiki only [03:44:10] indeed [03:44:21] if they're not a legitimate editor on other wikis, they get locked as a VOA [03:44:23] I already global-locked, the alts are next [03:44:50] Alright got it [03:44:54] Thanks for the help [03:47:34] Anti-blanking filter updated to account for anything like this happening in the future [03:53:26] Alright, dealt with [05:37:58] Forgot to reply when you sent it but thanks for the help [12:00:23] Got pinged here.
