[03:30:58] @sodium_permanganate Please check your DM [05:45:50] @kiju1108 I checked my DM. I have rollbacked them manually. Thank you for the concern. [10:07:50] Thank you for the update. Glad to hear that the issue has been resolved [19:17:48] hi friends - is there any way i can have CVT look at an account caught under an autoblock? we just had a vandal posting upsetting/graphic images and when i went to block them another acc got caught under the autoban, but obviously its only for 24 hours, so not sure if theres any way to investigate if it could be an alt or not [19:18:03] only because my team are worried itll happen again [19:26:13] Hi there, stewards can run checkuser to investigate if there's any technical overlap between two accounts' connection information. If you provide me with the wiki and account names (feel free to DM me if you prefer), I'll deal with [19:26:47] i can do this, only thing is MW doesnt tell me the username of the account caught under an autoblock, its just obfuscated as "autoblock #21" [19:28:52] normally i wouldnt care but they were plastering NSFW and transphobic suicide bait memes across the wiki which obviously is not good for our teenage lgbtq+ audience :'D [19:30:00] Hm, what can I do to help you with this? [19:30:20] are stewards not able to see autoblocks? [19:30:43] [1/2] it just appears like this for me [19:30:43] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/443926951292567562/1274812743760871456/Screenshot_20240818_203029_Chrome.png?ex=66c39d62&is=66c24be2&hm=586b980285eb7ea2fdbe60ce1684ff839cb93175bf7241943f8287519dbca64b& [19:30:47] but wont tell me who the account is [19:32:43] iirc, we won't be able to see without running cu [19:32:55] ahh :( thats a shame [19:33:26] autoblock kind of makes little sense when it wont let anyone see what the account actually is haha [19:33:35] ill just have to stay vigilant for a bit [19:34:07] Weird, though - I could've sworn account names used to be visible. Maybe changed with an MW update or something [19:34:58] i mean i get it - in the US especially, people share IPs constantly and they get cycled so fast it can often be a false positive. but i wouldve assumed stewards could see it o__o [19:37:50] Wait, isn't Geen Mcjoe the username? [19:38:15] its the one i blocked manually [19:38:29] autoblock is saying another account got blocked by sharing their IP [19:38:35] but it wont tell me what that account is [19:43:26] [1/2] 🤔 Just to clarify, you're saying that even if another account gets caught up in an autoblock, their username won't show up there, right? [19:43:27] [2/2] I might have misunderstood what you were saying [19:44:00] yes, the autoblock #21 represents another account that shares an IP with "Geen Mcjoe", but it wont tell me who that account is [19:44:08] sorry if i explained it badly D: [19:44:58] Ah I see. Thanks for clarifying :) [19:45:08] np! [19:45:28] if you guys cant do anything thats totally fine, i just figured id ask LOL [19:49:54] [1/2] Let me know if there's anything we can help with :) [19:49:55] [2/2] We don't bite unless you're a vandal, that is [19:50:10] haha i would hope im not!! [19:50:20] if they come back on a named account ill ask for CU [20:33:09] Let me see this is werid as hell [20:41:25] @tedkalashnikov does phighting allow for anon edits [20:42:17] Is there anything on Special:BlockList actually [20:42:46] The docs seem like you should be able to see the user [20:45:00] Actually hm [20:49:37] Okay so from what I can figure and from docs, autoblocks are on IPs not accounts. So to find the other account, CheckUsering the blocked account should show the other accounts that have shared the IP.

[20:50:15] This is confusing [20:54:09] oh huh i see [20:54:40] it does not also [20:54:43] Have I mentioned how much I love mediawiki [20:54:46] LOL [20:55:18] I’d describe my relationship about how I’d describe my relationship with New York City [20:55:28] That shitty ex girlfriend you can’t keep going back to [20:55:38] in that case could i have checkuser ran on ? [20:55:43] if im understanding right [20:55:54] Yeah that’s the blocked bloke? [20:56:05] aye [20:56:30] Cool [20:56:44] Kiju should handle that soon if not bump a steward [20:56:45] Now [20:56:57] I’m going to go make untested changes to global abuse filters [21:12:37] [1/2] Yeah, that's correct [21:12:37] [2/2] Thanks @pixldev [21:13:56] :nomChocoStrawberry: [21:14:30] doing :EpicFaceMH: [21:16:38] ty!! [21:21:00] @tedkalashnikov There seems to be no technical evidence to suggest that they have an alt [21:21:14] no worries, i appreciate you checking [21:21:15] Huh [21:45:58] [1/2] lock this account [21:45:58] [2/2] https://www.polandballwiki.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/GroypGroypGroyp [21:46:40] [1/2] likely this same user seen 6 months ago [21:46:40] [2/2] https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/475350160428498964/1211669526857515089
