[00:33:29] no probably not [00:37:17] as a general point of cu practice there is precedent for checking recently locked vandals in case they relapse, but the only recent case of that nature is abbw and abbw does not reuse cu-able in a way that would be useful to recheck [01:41:47] [1/2] Could someone revert their edits? [01:41:47] [2/2] https://abysmaltiktokvideos.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Valndal_of_reception_wikis [01:41:50] @tali64 [01:42:00] I don't have editing perms on that wiki so I can't [01:42:38] I thought I already did, but I guess not [01:42:43] Is it restricted to manual confirmed only? [01:42:53] What error pops up when you try to edit? [01:43:32] Doesn't appear to be [01:43:48] oh I see [01:44:00] i was logged out with vpn on [01:44:08] lol [01:44:33] Miraheze automatically logs me out a lot lmao [01:50:07] [1/2] delete this as spam [01:50:07] [2/2] https://www.bluepageswiki.org/wiki/Bluepages:Users_blocked_from_the_IP_Information_tool [01:53:47] Bru [01:53:53] lmao wat is dis [02:20:58] That appears to be a recurring spam target; maybe a global abuse filter preventing that page from being created across any wiki would be helpful [02:28:27] My theory is that spambots try to target redlink pages because it might lead to more people visiting the page once it's created than if it was a random title and somehow they often end up on Users blocked from the IP Information tool [02:29:36] In that case, tracking pages that previously had redlinks would be better; in fact, it could actually be a viable way to detect spam [02:46:11] Someone suggested that a wiki be closed due to Content Policy violations: https://modernphenotypes.miraheze.org/wiki/Talk:Modern_Phenotypes_Wiki; they make several good points witb evidence to back them up, and a similar wiki was shut down previously for Content Policy violations, so it's likely the wiki in question will be shut down regardless [02:56:43] Maybe start a thread on Meta [03:00:46] I don't know if my theory is true though, I don't have any evidence, it's just what it seems like [03:01:13] Could be that one page is just hard coded in spambots idk [04:04:47] We closed physical anthropology wiki recently, this looks like a high risk of being another variation of the same [04:06:11] Yeah... It's one of those. Bummer. [04:06:42] The talk page thing is weird though, and we need to look at that [10:38:25] [1/2] a) a troll and b) troll feeding to be deterred [10:38:25] [2/2] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/User_talk:Andreas_Alexander_Ulrich [10:39:21] actually a lot more established account than I thought, maybe it's not what I thought it was - intervention required in any case given the threat escalation [10:41:15] [1/2] cc @serverlessharej [10:41:15] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/443926951292567562/1211624009435717672/image.png?ex=65eedfca&is=65dc6aca&hm=9ea33e8b6db8b52e3d51907e2f8dc5d84165c7c6eac247b39f910993a9a4bd1c& [10:42:52] and that last bit about taking damn americans to court [10:43:20] this is why I should not be steward because my response would be along the lines of wiping their wiki and locking their account and letting the door smack them in the behind on the way out [10:43:43] lock reason abusive behavior & threats to the platform [11:36:30] What the hell is all of this baseless insults and defamatory that I'm seeing? [11:39:51] What's with all the baseless insults and defamatory remarks that this person is spewing? [13:21:01] Vandal on Polandball wiki: https://polandballwiki.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/GroyperGroypist [13:21:42] CentralAuth in case that's a requirement: https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/GroyperGroypist [13:31:57] Please [13:34:37] And... we've got death threats [13:37:26] @kiju1108 If you're free, we've got a cross-wiki vandal [13:38:36] handled [13:38:41] TYSM [13:39:16] I hope to join the CVT at some point [13:39:45] Also, do you mind deleting some of the death threats from the wiki? [13:41:43] hmmm... this is probably T&S case [13:42:01] Okay, I can make a report if need be [13:42:30] But IK Tali was also threatened [13:43:13] And if the pages are deleted & user is locked idk what T/S can do [13:46:21] [1/2] oh sorry, you talking about GroyperGroypist [13:46:21] [2/2] I thought you meant Andreas_Alexander_Ulrich. [13:47:14] Oh, gotcha [13:47:15] Sorry [13:47:28] Yeah, AlPaD may have to file a T&S report. [14:17:11] AAU wouldn't be a T&S case [14:17:21] Just a simple Steward block 'n lock [14:27:37] @kiju1108 have a second [14:29:23] see DMs for a bit of CVTing [14:32:48] CVTing 😆 [19:51:29] Pretty sure that's just called being committed to the act, trolling for the past 5 years [19:54:06] There is no need to inform T&S unless the threat is realistic or a user is concerned for safety [20:40:49] Yeah, I didn't think this guy was actually gonna kill me [20:40:54] What a great day lol [20:42:15] Ye I mean it's not nice genuine or otherwise. If it carries on, do raise it again so action can be taken and if it becomes to the level of harassment advise T&S. In an emergency, please contact local police on the relevant emergency number. [22:53:37] I see [23:10:01] even then (and you may want to pass through haraj, I'm going by old practice) you can take immediate steps to take the problem out of active circulation, and then forward the details to T&S for further action as needed
