[05:47:33] Nah, no need to say that either [09:14:06] Okay, you don't need to make peanut gallery comments either. It's been dealt with anyway. [16:17:27] [Special:CentralAuth/BeanAttacksAgain]] Could someone look into these 2 accounts? I do believe that they are the same person based on some of this diffs I found: https://nonbinary.wiki/w/index.php?title=Pride_Gallery&oldid=24845 https://nonbinary.wiki/w/index.php?title=Pride_Gallery&oldid=24846 https://nonbinary.wiki/w/index.php?title=Pride_Gallery&oldid=24847 [16:17:28] https://nonbinary.wiki/w/index.php?title=Pride_Gallery&oldid=24850 https://nonbinary.wiki/w/index.php?title=Pride_Gallery&oldid=24854 It would be real helpful if someone had a look at them.

Do you guys think that they could be sockpuppets of each other ? [18:04:04] ok i'll look [18:04:31] @MarioMario456 I meant anyone of either a Steward status or a Global Sysop. [18:04:36] RhinosF1, thanks :) [18:04:53] Back in 10 [18:06:18] I should've clarified first. [18:10:35] If Leerdoman74 keeps with his sockpuppeting and trolling, I'll be forced to open a global RfC for a global ban. He frequently sockpuppets on Wretched YouTube Videos Wiki, Atrocious Gameplay Wiki and/or Amazing Gameplay Wiki to evade his global lock and local blocks. [18:11:12] Dude, didn't I tell you to not say anything to them yet about him? [18:11:50] MarioMario456, that's not needed. I agree with DarkMatterMan4500 above [18:13:38] Besides, we shouldn't even report his socks yet until we get confirmation. Plus, I already told MarioMario456 to not report it just yet unless they confirm themselves. [18:16:25] https://nonciclopedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nicholls%20Town&diff=prev&oldid=2304052 Could a Steward go on ahead and block him if you get a minute? [18:16:26] [ Differenze tra le versioni di "Nicholls Town" - Nonciclopedia ] - nonciclopedia.org [18:21:28] Abuse filter locally seems to have taken care of them [18:21:49] @Doug I was just going to comment that the abuse filter has taken care of it. [18:21:54] lol [18:22:14] But there are some pages that could use some deletion made by that LTA. [18:22:39] oh [18:24:56] https://nonciclopedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nicholls%20Town&action=history Grrrrrrr. [18:25:08] It got re-created. [18:25:09] [ Cronologia delle modifiche di "Nicholls Town" - Nonciclopedia ] - nonciclopedia.org [18:26:00] Thanks for deleting it @Doug. [18:28:43] np [18:29:20] That LTA should stop hiding behind multiple IP accounts, as it's just essentially a waste of their time. [18:30:25] $log Cleanup vandalism by LTA, protect one page, and locally soft rangeblock [[mh:nonciclopedia:Special:Contributions/82.49.0.0/16|82.49.0.0/16]] and [[mh:nonciclopedia:Special:Contributions/95.247.0.0/16|95.247.0.0/16]] for 1 month on [[mh:nonciclopedia|nonciclopediawiki]] [18:30:32] Saved item "Cleanup vandalism by LTA, protect one page, and locally soft rangeblock [[mh:nonciclopedia:Special:Contributions/82.49.0.0/16|82.49.0.0/16]] and [[mh:nonciclopedia:Special:Contributions/95.247.0.0/16|95.247.0.0/16]] for 1 month on [[mh:nonciclopedia|nonciclopediawiki]]" [18:31:16] And if they create a new account, it won't even matter because the end results will always be the same. [18:32:55] yes [18:35:50] Also @Doug, I hate to ask this again, but have you had a look into BeanAttacksAgain and BeansonLeMeme's edits on the Nonbinary Wiki? I think there's sockpuppetry going on, if you know what I mean. I've already provided the diffs for you above: https://discord.com/channels/407504499280707585/443926951292567562/839173892610326528 [18:35:50] [ Discord ] - discord.com [18:37:29] I'll try and have a look at their contributions in a bit [18:37:53] @Doug Okay, sounds good. [18:38:36] I'll let you wrap up the spambot investigations. [18:58:15] $log blocked an IP on nonciclopedia (attempted vandalism by LTA) [18:58:22] Saved item "blocked an IP on nonciclopedia (attempted vandalism by LTA)" [19:55:45] DarkMatterMan4500, and RhinosF1, noted AF [19:56:00] @Doug AF? [19:57:02] DarkMatterMan4500, abuse filter [19:57:10] Oh. [20:09:35] @Doug So how are things going with the massive flood of spam-bots? [20:12:21] Working through loginwiki right now, then will take a look at cwarswiki, followed by madgendersciencewiki and worlduniversityandschoolwiki. I'm hoping by then we should have things in a lot better shape, from the global locks but, more importantly, from the global blocks [20:13:36] Okay. That sounds like a good plan to me. And then after that, you could have a look at what I showed you. Take all the time you need. [20:14:37] I'm thinking it's particularly bad as a bunch of Leaseweb rangeblocks likely expired. Not sure if @Void wants to take a loon at the Leaseweb ASNs and put together a mass global block list together this evening, if he doesn't have anything else going on or that he'd rather be doing [20:15:03] Well, he is active right now, isn't he? So of course you 2 could tackle them together. [20:15:04] Sample? [20:15:43] Well, just see all the [[Special:GlobalBlockList]] global blocks from the past few days, quite a few have been Leaseweb data centres [20:15:44]

https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:GlobalBlockList [20:15:46] [ List of globally blocked IP addresses - Miraheze Meta ] - meta.miraheze.org [20:16:01] though in fairness, the last blocks for many of them expired a few months ago, so not terribly recently [20:17:01] I put Leaseweb in my block summaries [20:17:15] so looks like 8 Leaseweb blocks in the past few days [20:17:51] And Void's off like a rocket: 20:16, 4 May 2021 Void (talk) (contribs) changed group membership for Void from steward and administrator to steward, administrator and flooder (Performing mass blocking). [20:18:11] thanks Void 🙂 [20:19:11] nyoom [20:36:36] It seems like Void is taking care of the rest. Good teamwork you 2. [20:44:44] Hmmm, seems like he's finished. Now (if @Doug wants to now that is) could get to locking as soon as possible. [21:10:26] [[Special:CentralAuth/School For Love]] Looks like Jackson's World came back with another sockpuppet of some sort. [21:10:26]

https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/School_For_Love [21:10:27] [ Global account information for School For Love - Miraheze Meta ] - meta.miraheze.org [21:28:16] looking [21:29:53] hrm, that's quite weak, tbh. The same page being edited by a recurring problematic error can be an indicator, yes, but at the same time, the edit is quite different [21:30:00] so I'd just keep an eye on it [21:30:47] Okay, got it. You could go on ahead and start locking the rest of the spam-only accounts if you want to. [22:04:09] Anybody around to globally block a disruptive IP editor on Meta too?

It should keep them off for a good while.
