[02:34:54] why did the bot ping miraheze staff? [02:35:12] ? [02:35:37] look above [02:35:46] wm bot [02:37:09] im logged in @dmehus thx [02:37:11] I mean I requested for it to list its trusted users, but those are their hostmasks, not actual pings [02:37:17] Cocopuff2018, great :) [02:37:31] Save your password somewhere safe so you don't forget it.

At this point, any discussion over moving to Libera is now moot; we have been forcibly removed from Mr. Lee's precious egotistical empire. I think now, if we haven't already, we should change any IRC links to point to Libera.

It should at least be given a proper review [04:11:09] I can set as low priority if you want [04:11:14] set it to normal [04:11:16] please [04:11:49] andrew13, yes normal would be my preference also as I think that's standard [04:12:26] when will i get undisavled [04:12:29] *disabled [04:12:33] dmehus: if you set to low that's fine.

[04:21:56] Crepusculum, np [04:21:58] btw, in case anyone has noticed, #miraheze on freenode was forcefully reopened by a "freenodecom" user and they set the topic to "This channel has been reopened with respect to the communities and new users. The topic is in violation of freenode policy: https://freenode.net/policies" [04:21:58] [ The Policies - freenode ] - freenode.net [04:22:00] so it seems as if network staff reopened the channel [04:22:00] hi [04:22:08] andrew13, don't do that again or you'll be banned [04:22:17] banned from discord or irc [04:22:21] If you ping multiple users or use an everyone ping, you'll be banned [04:22:23] Both [04:22:32] Locking down channel on discord for a few minutes.

[04:23:06] then what happen to the data dump [04:23:11] did someone just get the bot to ping everyone?

[04:30:41] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Tech:DNS says: "Miraheze's DNS is self-hosted, on two servers: ns1 and ns2. GDNSD..." does that mean I can ask the Miraheze team to configure my domain name to my wiki and they can do it (assuming that I prove I own the domain name)? OR do I need to do something else to get the domain name to direct traffic to the wiki? [04:30:42] [ Tech:DNS - Miraheze Meta ] - meta.miraheze.org [04:35:26] how do i talk to mediawiki if banned from there [04:35:35] Uploaded file: https://uploads.kiwiirc.com/files/2b380379931426d6d4375b547df35621/image.png [04:35:38] I think that's generally how it works. I'm super-tired at the moment, but in any doubt, you can also create a ticket on phabricator.miraheze.org to make the request, and the SRE, who know more about this sort of thing than I, will handle it.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask and someone should answer soon. [05:00:24] Heads up that #miraheze on Freenode has been reopened [05:00:46] All channels with links to Libera in their topic were reassigned to the "freenode-placeholder-account" account and -i'd [05:00:59] We know [05:01:59] I looked at the scrollback and nobody mentioned it [05:02:29] Naleksuh: we know. I dropped my nick because well fu*k freenode now. I'm pissed at how that was handled. [05:02:43] To be honest, I was neutral on the freenode vs. libera thing and only moved here because everyone else was doing it [05:02:44] I brought it up over an hour ago [05:02:53] But after this I've changed my mind and freenode has gone to the dark side now [05:03:51] I was pretty spooked at first by the drama, but this has cemented the idea that it was a good idea to jump ship [05:04:42] why did they keep the @everyone perms for the irc bot... [05:04:43] C: what the fuck happened here? [05:05:02] funny man @everyone'ed in the irc [05:05:02] Voidwalker: yeah... I am extremely glad we did at this point. They apparently took over the WMF checkuser channels even. https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikimedia_Forum&type=revision&diff=21499494&oldid=21497077 [05:05:03] [ Difference between revisions of "Wikimedia Forum" - Meta ] - meta.wikimedia.org [05:07:38] @icanttellyou: it was a permission oversight that's been fixed now. [05:07:54] yea... [05:10:38] Naleksuh, yeah I was pretty much the same way. The actions today made true the predictions of the Libera.Chat camp [05:12:54] @Rosie MOMA, yep, absolutely, Miraheze can host your domain's DNS zone file, or you can host your own DNS with another provider and update your CNAME records to `mw-lb.miraheze.org`.

[05:26:18] @自分でファック [05:27:14] @here [05:27:20] <自分でファック> oh [06:40:32] hi, i have a little problem with the people editing and adding spam to my wiki, so im going to make a abakup, and then i need to delete all the content of the wiki, i can delete it by myself or i have to contact anyone? [08:24:42] You can just delete all the spam stuff [08:24:57] And if u want, enabled special moderation [08:30:28] You could enable Speical:Nuke [08:30:45] That would allow mass deleting spam pages by a user or users [09:07:40] the problem is that the spam is inside the aritcles, and also i have problems tracking what i have translated or what not, so i want to backup it and start again [09:54:35] @demehus - once again thank you for your assistance. I have successfully registered the domain name wikimoma.art and will open a new task at phabricator 🙂 [10:18:00] Miraheze volteeurs proly can hel[p- [10:30:17] who pinged me [10:45:54] JohnLewis: hi [10:46:05] hi [10:46:59] JohnLewis: thanks for acting on phab. Not sure if speaking too freenode would be useful but so far they've faced fairly wide condemnation. I tried to speak to them earlier and they refused to engage with me. [10:47:17] dmehus was in the middle of setting up a between network bridge [10:48:32] The stance of the RfC was to drop all network activity on Freenode, so from a GC perspective, the actions of Freenode staff assist us in achieving the goal as defined by the community RfC which was to stop using Freenode and drop the channels [10:49:14] There’s little we can do for the new Freenode policy which states if we abandon the channels, we lose entitlement to them [10:50:01] JohnLewis: various projects seem to be strongly condemning them taking channels over by force [10:51:34] Naturally we do the same. However it is my opinion that if this move was planned and properly conducted, we wouldn’t be in this position. Per the RfC result, I don’t feel trying to get the channel backs under our control is acting in respect of community consensus which states we should drop them [10:51:55] True [10:52:03] I'd have rather they were kept closed [10:52:32] I think we should consider saying something as a community statement properly though [10:54:42] Any member of the community is entitled to start that [10:58:44] However I will note, jumping on a ‘bandwagon’ without properly considering things lead to a mess. If continuing it leads to more mess, responsibility will be centred solely on the persons who cause it, as single headed decision making and influencing by role is not what Miraheze is about. Hastiness leads to mess, being hasty in response to mess only ever causes more.

[12:47:10] #miraheze-offtopic [12:49:04] Hello Andrew1379! If you have any questions, feel free to ask and someone should answer soon. [13:05:29] JohnLewis I think it's time to close down the #miraheze channel on Freenode, the hostile takeover bot effectively forced it to shut down and moved it to ##miraheze there. [13:06:12] What is irc [13:06:41] The channel is entirely inaccessible - besides asking it be dropped therefore allowing others to register it, I'm unsure what else is/can/needs be done [13:08:47] My understanding is that it's been effectively shut down for violating their new policy which apparently doesn't allow references to other networks in topic [13:08:48] *topics [13:18:39] thats funny [13:21:02] There's nothing that can be done about the #miraheze channel on freenode. Andrew has wiped the ChanServ access list clean and it's now registered to the freenode-placeholder-account, which he controls. [13:23:12] ##miraheze is registered, but looks like Andrew hijacked that one as well (ironic; he forces people to use ## but then registers those channels, so people are forced to leave freenode anyway!). John has a single +f flag in there and nothing else, so he can't do anything about that channel either. [13:23:53] In short, our business with Mr. Andrew Lee's new totalitarian empire is finished. [13:29:04] good morning [13:29:36] i have no desire to rejoin freenode after the whole issue [13:44:30] He hijacked thousands of channels and directed everyone to #freenode-services for help, his staff then proceeded to do nothing and let the channel be taken over by arguments and trolls [13:50:37] https://atheme.github.io/atheme-open-letter/ [13:50:37] [ An open letter from Atheme’s developers and community | atheme-open-letter ] - atheme.github.io [13:51:15] What k6ka says.
