[03:55:29] <Voidwalker>	 whelp, it turns out most of our spam is coming from a /12 range that's just too massive to handle properly
[04:03:00] <Voidwalker>	 correction, two /12 ranges
[04:03:02] <Voidwalker>	 rip
[16:55:33] <Zppix>	 Voidwalker:  what ISP?
[16:55:58] <Voidwalker>	 for the /12 ranges?
[16:56:04] <Zppix>	 yes
[16:58:28] <Voidwalker>	 China Unicom (Hebei Provence network)
[16:58:46] <Zppix>	 always china...
[16:59:25] <Voidwalker>	 pretty much all the single IPs I blocked last night should belong to one of those two ranges
[16:59:53] <Voidwalker>	 although I didn't really keep track
[17:07:19] <Reception123>	 Voidwalker: since you're the steward here, do you think https://github.com/miraheze/mw-config/pull/2096 is ok? (change wise, code-wise John's comment is valid)
[17:09:51] <Voidwalker>	 well, from a transparency standpoint, it's no big deal
[17:10:37] <Reception123>	 ok
[17:10:46] <Reception123>	 Voidwalker: so as a steward you'd agree to this change then?
[17:11:58] <Voidwalker>	 purely from the standpoint of reducing flood on metawiki in cases involving more than around five actions in a short period
[17:12:45] <Voidwalker>	 which is also something I should have done last night
[17:13:06] <Reception123>	 ok
[17:13:41] <Reception123>	 though local sysops can't add bot to themselves or anyone so that is a little thing there
[17:13:57] <Reception123>	 but I guess it's fine, as long as, of course bot is *only* added when dealing with CVT matters, and nothing else
[17:14:27] <Voidwalker>	 the only rights that they would gain access to that have significant impact are bot (intended) and suppressredirect
[17:38:53] <Zppix>	 oh nooo they can avoid redirect creations... BAN THEM :P
[17:39:12] <MacFan4000>	 Lol
