[23:46:06] 'lo. mediawiki keeps sending me emails about "Multiple failed attempts to log in to Wikipedia as Kate" -- i have a secure password, i do not care about this and would like these mails to stop, as they're verging on spam / abuse. how do i turn this off? [23:48:02] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-echo, uncheck failed login events [23:48:37] if you want to use it for all wikis, use https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:GlobalPreferences#mw-prefsection-echo [23:53:00] thanks. metawiki wouldn't accept my password for some reason, so i logged out of enwiki and that also won't accept my password. (maybe i forgot to update it in my password manager somehow?) - but i can't do a password reset because Special:PasswordReset says "Your IP address is blocked from editing" [23:53:36] i guess this is due to connecting over a "privacy" VPN [23:54:09] can someone manually trigger a password reset for my account? [23:55:39] (brooke in _security can verify my identify hopefully) [23:55:59] Could you disconnect from the VPN temporarily? [23:56:27] i could do but i'd rather not as it means reconfiguring my entire network setup [23:57:14] i guess i can add a specific route for wikimedia, let's try that [23:59:15] that doesn't seem to have helped, i still get the 'Your IP address is blocked from editing' error even though traceroute shows traffic to en.wikipedia.org going over my ISP
