[20:57:46] @verityoffaith you got a wiki and a username? [20:58:02] are you asking for my username? that would be Stardustshimmers [20:58:06] the wiki is the rain world mods wiki [20:58:18] [1/2] https://rainworldmods.miraheze.org/wiki/Technomancer [20:58:18] [2/2] it was just this page. replaced some words with a keysmash [20:58:55] @verityoffaith the troll's ip [20:59:01] But I'll look on that page [20:59:13] 201.168.8.20 [20:59:32] https://rainworldmods.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/201.168.8.20 [20:59:36] yeah [20:59:48] just vandalism [21:00:29] @verityoffaith go to Special:Block/201.168.8.20 on your wiki [21:00:47] is there a way to view global IP contributions? [21:01:19] uhhh not sure if any of these other settings are useful [21:01:55] what does the block details section mean? [21:02:08] Not without other fancy tools. [21:02:30] https://tenor.com/view/agony-gif-23084585 [21:03:10] wheres dat [21:03:17] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/443926951292567562/1195110710364094495/image.png?ex=65b2cc95&is=65a05795&hm=bede199b50e69120ba392c44b548564347e53b5761b46aeb93f51d54941955a3& [21:03:29] Oh [21:03:34] @verityoffaith set to sitewide and you can leave just top ticked for now [21:03:39] 👍 [21:03:41] Talk page is up to you [21:03:44] No need for email [21:03:52] the rest is remailing other users and their own user talk page [21:03:58] it's making me fill in the expiration page [21:04:05] I would recommend 2 weeks for expiration [21:04:08] For an IP [21:04:14] sure, that works [21:04:32] And up to you whether to logged in users on that ip too [21:04:34] thanks for the assistance :) [21:04:45] [1/3] * Account Creation prevents them from creating accounts w/ that IP [21:04:45] [2/3] * Sending Email prevents them from using the mediawiki emailusers feature [21:04:46] [3/3] * Editing talk page - not too relevant in this case [21:04:47] i didn't check that option just in case someone else happens to have the same IP address [21:04:55] ahh, i see [21:05:11] A few weeks for an ip is generally long enough for a dynamic ip to get reallocated to someone else so the block not to be important anymore [21:05:20] ah [21:05:22] For domestic ones [21:05:35] good to know [21:05:39] From virtual private networks and proxies, we normally block them for years [21:05:47] that makes sense [21:06:21] For schools, try not to do things like 1 or 2 weeks. Pick a weird number of hours because it's likely they'll be in the same room at that time the week after [21:06:37] Which is why you see blocks like 60 hours on Wikipedia [21:06:52] oh thank you for the revert rhinos [21:07:06] i see. will keep in mind for the future [21:07:23] this is our first vandal so i'm slightly smug about it [21:07:31] There's always a first [21:07:36] Sadly never a last [21:07:41] well known enough to attract assholes 🎉 [21:08:05] but yeah. this is all good to know for the future, thank you all [21:08:19] my schools IP been blocked from WP for as long as ive checked lmao [21:08:37] haha i stil got none [21:08:44] Your school is probably full of persistent dickheads [21:08:44] lucky you lol [21:09:20] It's a school what you expect [21:09:27] True [21:09:39] im not a social person so idk how the general student base it [21:09:53] i keep small circles, dont engage with popular kids and such [21:10:02] That's not a bad thing [21:10:04] if my school has popular people I dont know em [21:10:07] yea def [21:10:09] i figure it varies [21:10:21] I have other more choice words than popular for my schools popular kids [21:10:27] also never gotten bullied despite being a textbook nerd
