[00:12:44] Another BigBlueWorld sockupuppet here. Same gift spamming behavior [00:12:45] User:No_one_remembers_name! [01:46:16] @CVT ^ [02:53:24] Please note that non-urgent matters that require a CU should be posted to [[SR/CU]], our volunteer time is very limited [02:53:24] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/SR/CU [02:53:25]

[02:59:27] I wonder shouldn't that be added to some sort of abuse filter [04:31:28] https://innovationinc.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Jfkahwkufawfkuha Looks like a throwaway account vandalizing this wiki [04:33:04] Haven't seen that name in a very long time [04:33:22] is it a LTA [04:33:37] Nah [04:34:07] is it a former vandal with a similar username attempting to evade a former lock/block? [04:34:20] I 'unno, probably not [04:34:25] Most likely it's just [04:34:43] some random dork who thinks haha changing the page to my page is funny [04:35:31] Huh [04:35:43] So probably doesn't need anything else, this type of vandal has no real investment and once they realize they do actually get reverted the stopped real quick, lose interest and go back to playing subway surfers [04:35:50] good job on the catch and block though [04:36:11] I MAY have sold on the block though [04:36:17] I put the link for CVT [04:36:22] but didn't hide it [04:36:37] so like it says "[[mh:meta:CVT]] action" [04:36:37] https://mh.wikipedia.org/wiki/meta:CVT [04:36:44] oh [04:36:47] I'm sorry WM bot [04:36:58] If they're not even gonna put in a mean message as their username, tsk [04:37:19] In the future m: is a valid meta prefix so you can just put [[m:CVT]] action [04:37:19] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CVT [04:37:20]

[04:37:35] also, looking at this funvasion vandal who's targeting the page for the peanuts movie https://funvasion.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/67.55.21.79 [04:37:38] ugh what was the command to fix wm bot [04:37:43] it says mobile edit for all of them so like [04:38:36] Why [04:38:41] Would you do that [04:38:55] Vandalizing a billion times on mobile must be time consuming [04:38:58] irc bot is linking to wikimedia meta [04:40:46] weird [04:41:15] @configure default-link-wiki miraheze [04:41:19] hm [04:41:25] try typing that on your end crystal [04:41:29] almost sure it wont work but [04:41:33] kk [04:41:42] Permission denied [04:41:42] @configure default-link-wiki miraheze [04:41:48] permission denied?? [04:41:49] :( [04:41:53] thought so [04:41:57] maybe ask rhinos later [04:42:14] yo MacFan4000, can you reset the wm link default please [04:42:43] rhinos isn't a bot admin, the only one with access on Miraheze is Mac [04:43:00] ohh [04:43:14] This value can't be stored [04:43:14] @configure default-link-wiki [04:43:19] This value can't be stored [04:43:19] @configure default-link-wiki miraheze [04:43:29] Value miraheze was stored into default-link-wiki in the config [04:43:29] @configure default-link-wiki=miraheze [04:43:29] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wm-bot [04:43:32] huh [04:43:33] yay! [04:43:38] ok lets check [04:43:43] oh, equal signs syntax [04:43:43] [[CVT]] [04:43:43] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/CVT [04:43:48] yay [04:43:51] thank ye kindly mac [04:43:51] thank you MacFan [04:44:20] mac.... [04:44:27] Mac n cheese.... [04:44:30] mmm.... [04:44:32] i should prob sleep [04:44:40] but crystal is making me hungry now [04:44:45] mmmm [04:44:47] FOCUS Dave [04:44:52] you're working on this [04:44:54] FOCUS [04:45:01] CVT [04:45:07] important things [04:45:10] ive already had a very wikiful day tho [04:45:20] I trust: .*@miraheze/Void (2admin), .*@miraheze/Reception123 (2admin), .*@miraheze/.* (2trusted), .*@user/raidarr (2admin), [04:45:20] @trusted [04:45:36] hm [04:45:37] ^ a few others have admin access for this channel specifically [04:45:46] Raidarr, that's a suprise [04:45:47] 👍 [04:45:50] I never seem them on IRC [04:47:10] [learning] stewarding + tech yapping + messing with local mediawiki and then having to go file a bug report on phab about the tool im using + ??? + almost starting to write a help page is bit tiring [04:47:17] its also lowk nearly 2am [04:47:37] have you done any CU actions or suppression yet? [04:47:40] and for reference wm-bot commands don't work through the relay [04:47:42] or any Steward requests [04:47:43] at least yesterday I had the excuse of a business call for staying up this late [04:48:02] i suspected so because of the format, hence me asking Crystalite to try it [04:48:19] I'm not trusted :broken_heart: [04:48:46] your miraheze cloak grants you trusted access [04:49:07] No suppression, I did action one SR/CU. Still a long ways to go to being able to do it 'naturally' or as intuitively as the others but I'd say I did a good job for my first time [04:49:16] You are root and identified by the name .*@wikimedia/MacFan4000 [04:49:16] @whoami [04:49:20] You are trusted and identified by the name .*@miraheze/.* [04:49:20] @whoami [04:49:29] NA helped me through parsing the information I was drawing up [04:49:40] I trust: .*@miraheze/Void (2admin), .*@miraheze/Reception123 (2admin), .*@miraheze/.* (2trusted), .*@user/raidarr (2admin), [04:49:40] @trusted [04:49:48] OH [04:49:52] I'm looking at the thing now [04:50:05] and stopping me from blocking a quintillion addresses [04:51:21] Wait a sec, MacFan4000, it says for this channel void and reception are admins but you don't have a miraheze cloak [04:51:27] so do you have like all around access? [04:51:37] MacFan is a joint Wikimedian and mirahezen [04:51:45] the bot is for wikimedia, but we also have it set up [04:51:56] i have full access in every channel [04:52:01] I see [04:52:07] is this just real life [04:52:09] he's one of the main admins for the bot and just happens to overlap here because he's awesome like that [04:52:18] that's cool [04:52:23] root access is set via the configuration file on the server [04:52:38] (hosted on wikimedia cloud vps) [04:52:44] like how Markus Roost is from minecraft.wiki but his bot ( @Wiki-Bot ) is used all over [04:52:46] sorta [04:52:48] maybe [04:53:10] markus roost is from minecraft.wiki? [04:53:14] cool [04:53:42] Well I say from as an oversimplification but he is an admin over there and if I recall a sitting Director of Block & Quill [04:54:10] (The legal entity that stewards the mc wiki family and is the other side of the hosting deal with gloop) [04:54:15] at this point, I am pretty much the only one who does anything to maintain the bot [04:54:35] Interesting [04:55:08] The only other name I recognize from the support list is Kunal but I know well enough that he has a lot of other projects he's involved with [04:55:20] petan/benapetr who created it is largely inactive, and the other people with access never do anything with it [04:56:17] maybe we should move this discussion to volunteering, we're straying from CVT a little bit [04:56:36] doesn't shock me given the size of the wikimedia dev verse [04:56:40] prob should [04:57:13] but also im about to go K with the greater panasia area successfully not blocked (Im making this up not reflective of actual CU work I did to be clear), think I'm calling a night [04:57:16] ..or, morning [04:57:30] prob have more not wiki things to do tommorow [04:57:50] + stewarding and wanting to tackle more tech things [04:58:06] getting back to wanting to nibble at preparing for 1.46 [04:58:36] being a Steward sounds time-consuming [04:58:38] but fun [04:58:46] Eh [04:58:53] It takes as much time as you give it [04:59:13] There's some of us who pop in and action things ever once in a while [04:59:17] Which I will be at times [04:59:31] I wonder what's next for my Miraheze career [04:59:49] But since a lot of the bits are new and novel to me my ADHD and free time currently demand I lock tf in [05:00:02] that sounds nice [05:00:14] while also chosing to not do things when i feel like i get close to getting tired [05:00:14] the AS page looks funny now that you've left [05:00:21] to not burn out [05:00:23] balance! [05:00:36] the empty list lmfao [05:00:50] gonna make a sock account and run it for AS so the page looks better [05:00:53] LOL [05:00:59] smh [05:01:16] eh, wait and see where the times take ya I say [05:01:45] Just contribute to things you want to/think are cool and have fun really [05:01:51] I wonder if me and Elisa will be lumped together for GA, if it ever comes that [05:01:58] honestly, I think I've warmed up to CVT a lot [05:02:06] rest follows. Doesn't mean the track leads to bigger hats, it may, but who knows [05:02:28] GA and GP have a lot of gaps in the things they do and handle I will say [05:02:37] it defo wouldn't hurt, the front line is respectable, but it would be nice to be able to have more global authority [05:02:46] but I prob don't even need to think bout that for months [05:02:49] I'm not the best person to describe since I totally jumped the GP bit [05:02:52] Yeah [05:03:04] I sure as hell never thought I'd be a Steward but :shrug: [05:03:13] I remember a message raidarr sent back in like [05:03:16] 2024 I think [05:03:52] Saying something like "with a bit more on wiki involvement I'd even say global admin would be in the cards for pix" in a conversation on volunteering [05:04:13] heh [05:04:23] Time is funny [05:04:32] did you ever see me in any volunteer roles? [05:04:45] I really first new you from the Pressure Wiki, but only a hello or two [05:04:50] I still remember making my account on Miraheze while leaving school on the bus on a snowy day [05:04:58] I less know your work than I know of it [05:05:22] I was aware of your involvement with Pressure Wiki and Forsaken (and later others) [05:05:35] I don't follow local day to day on those well enough though [05:06:20] I think I DM'd you once, what was that? [05:06:25] March? [05:06:33] I was still looking at the WR hat [05:06:51] It's kinda funny, I was focused on WR but was picking up CVT along the way [05:07:05] and then in a DM with Raidarr he mentioned GP with elisa [05:08:29] like i said [05:08:31] time is weeeeeeeeird [05:08:55] thinking you have a defined long term plan going into something is silly [05:09:09] I saw a clip of Mark Rober a few days ago [05:10:04] I'll look tmr maybe but it was basically about thinking of life like a river you're trying to corss [05:10:48] Corss? [05:10:51] You're at where you're at, you test the three rocks in front of you with your food, pick the best option available to you, then you scan where you are now, and you go for the new best option [05:10:56] cross* [05:11:14] basket popping out of the tall grass [05:11:51] 👀 [05:11:53] basket [05:11:56] egg basket [05:11:59] easter bunny [05:12:01] chocolate [05:12:04] mmmmm chocolate [05:12:15] chocolate eggs, mmmm [05:12:45] insert that one GIF of Spongebob Squarepants here [05:13:47] huh [05:13:54] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:AbuseLog/1449502 [05:14:04] Pix I cant see this wiki [05:14:07] Ah yes, the one SpongeBob GIF [05:14:27] can you resolve above if it needs to? Might be cause for concern [05:14:44] The infamous chocolate GIF. [05:15:07] strange, I don't remember this episode of eva [05:16:16] Page was already deleted by a local admin and it's not so egregious that further action is warranted I think [05:16:37] Alright, just saying because some self-harm references [05:18:18] Mmmmmm, given the context (trollpastawiki), and that it was a one off page creation that was deleted already, I don't think it needs further action [05:18:56] One bar I use is 'okay but like is there any meaningful difference or problems saved if I go after this' and I don't think that's super likely here [05:19:05] /the risk is low enough [05:19:14] agree [05:19:18] If someone else has a different assessment by all means lm [05:19:45] i aint perfect, despite what my +4 CHA suggests [05:20:15] jeez, why does funvasion draw vandals and IP editors like moths to a lamp [05:20:48] Someone should introduce him to reception wikis and friends [05:21:37] also IBW [09:53:32] Right you are. [13:33:44] brb filing a CU request [14:21:41] I'm also filing one right now as we speak. [14:53:07] And I just finished it a few minutes ago, just so you guys know. [18:23:22] [[Special:CentralAuth/Jacob.Mincey]] [[Special:CentralAuth/Jacob.Mincey2]] Just thought you guys would like to know that Jacob.Mincey created an account, Jacob.Mincey2, to go around his block.
