[00:00:06] [discord] The language barrier makes it rather hard to pinpoint certain speech patterns though [00:00:30] [discord] Try the best you can. It really makes me wish that The Pioneer was still here as a Steward. [00:01:10] [discord] I do wish we had someone who read East Asian languages, yeah [00:01:35] [discord] The Pioneer was great for a while, under his/her resignation over 23 months ago. [00:04:58] [discord] wow, feels like just yesterday [00:05:11] [discord] The Pioneer was great for a while, until his/her resignation over 23 months ago. (edited) [02:21:06] [discord] Feels like it, huh? [14:55:06] [discord] I just wonder if you are aware of ISECHIKA related accounts being created on multiple Japanese wikis recently [14:55:06] [discord] Some other Japanese admin informed me of it [14:55:08] [discord] https://login.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Log/newusers [14:55:09] [url] User creation log - Miraheze Login Wiki | login.miraheze.org [14:56:26] [discord] Many, if not all, of them are against username guidelines, such as personal attacks, and even if they are not, they are mostly blocked across wikis for being an LTA [15:06:46] [discord] FYI, Japanese user accounts having a Japanese name with over 10 characters are very likely ISECHIKA, especially if they are locally blocked on their home wiki [15:06:47] [discord] Most Japanese admins tend to lack communication with CVT or Stew members and just handle them locally, but I think it's rather a cross-wiki issue that should be dealt globally [15:07:07] [discord] FYI, Japanese user accounts having a Japanese name with over 10 characters are very likely ISECHIKA, especially if they are locally blocked on their home wiki without any posts [15:07:08] [discord] Most Japanese admins tend to lack communication with CVT or Stew members and just handle them locally, but I think it's rather a cross-wiki issue that should be dealt globally (edited) [15:12:54] [discord] Since I'm not really active on wikis, I think an active admin of Japanese wiki might know further about them, so if you need more information, I recommend you communicate with them directly (perhaps an admin of Usopedia or Chakuwiki would suit for it) [15:13:04] [discord] Since I'm not really active on wikis recently, I think an active admin of Japanese wiki might know further about them, so if you need more information, I recommend you communicate with them directly (perhaps an admin of Usopedia or Chakuwiki would suit for it) (edited) [15:13:33] [discord] Thanks for reading [15:24:37] [discord] Oh hello there @The Pioneer. [15:26:31] [discord] Long time no see, isn't it? [15:26:47] [discord] Yep. [15:28:38] [discord] I'm kind of busy in real life, but someone informed me about ISECHIKA... so the issue is *that* serious (enough to call me), I suppose [15:28:39] [discord] However, I'm too busy handling it myself [15:29:17] [discord] So I just popped up to ask for a global help [15:29:55] [discord] I'm kind of busy in real life, but someone informed me about ISECHIKA... so the issue is *that* serious (enough to call me), I suppose [15:29:55] [discord] However, I'm too busy handling it by myself (edited) [15:32:36] [discord] I'm kind of busy in real life, but someone informed me about ISECHIKA... so the issue is *that* serious (enough to call me), I suppose [15:32:37] [discord] However, I'm too busy to handle it by myself (edited) [15:53:09] [discord] Aight, I can list up some of the patterns that are directly against our guidelines after checking the logs myself: [15:53:10] [discord] - "コロナに負けた" (lost against covid) + personal name [15:53:12] [discord] - "いせちか" (directly indicating they are ISECHIKA) [15:53:13] [discord] - "マスターベーションして" + some words + personal name (indicating sexual abuse in public) [15:53:14] [discord] - "靴下" (not a harmful word itself, but possibly mean sockpuppet in a wiki-context) [15:53:16] [discord] - "荒らし" (or "あらし", "嵐", meaning vandalism) [15:53:17] [discord] - username + "ぶっ壊す"/"ぶっこわす"/"ぶっ潰す""ぶっつぶす" (meaning destruction) [15:53:18] [discord] Aight, I can list up some of the patterns that are directly against our guidelines after checking the logs myself: [15:53:20] [discord] - "コロナに負けた" (lost against covid) + personal name [15:53:21] [discord] - "いせちか" (directly indicating they are ISECHIKA) [15:53:22] [discord] - "マスターベーションして" + some words + personal name (indicating sexual abuse in public) [15:53:23] [discord] - "靴下" (not a harmful word itself, but possibly mean sockpuppet in a wiki-context) [15:53:25] [discord] - "荒らし" (or "あらし", "嵐", meaning vandalism) [15:53:26] [discord] - username + "ぶっ壊す"/"ぶっこわす"/"ぶっ潰す"/"ぶっつぶす" (meaning destruction) (edited) [15:55:06] [discord] Such direct words can be blocked using the global abuse filter, but I'm not sure it would be enough, as they will soon find another expression [15:55:18] [discord] I think such direct words can be blocked using the global abuse filter, but I'm not sure it would be enough, as they will soon find another expression (edited) [16:04:34] [discord] However, they tend to use sentences or several phrases (such as some Katakana word + personal name) on their accounts, which is why I suggested the accounts with over 10 Japanese characters should be suspected; normal Japanese usernames tend to be shorter, with only 1 word in it. [19:20:55] [discord] I think I wacked all of them? Let me know if I missed any [19:22:09] [discord] Thanks for the aid, that really helped in my investigation [19:22:28] [discord] I wacked most of their ranges but they did abuse a large number of telecom ranges [20:07:48] [discord] You're welcome.
