[07:50:37] <Sky_Harbor>	 Hi everyone, I'm having issues with actions being throttled from the editing seminar I'm running here in the Philippines.  Anyone here who could help? :)
[07:51:07] <Sky_Harbor>	 I'm getting "action throttled" errors even though I already asked for the lifting of IP limits
[07:51:59] <Sky_Harbor>	 The error says "As an anti-abuse measure, you are limited from performing this action too many times in a short space of time, and you have exceeded this limit.  Please try again in a few minutes"
[08:00:20] <legoktm>	 hi Sky_Harbor
[08:00:34] <legoktm>	 Sky_Harbor: are you trying to create new accounts?
[08:01:07] <Sky_Harbor>	 They just finished making accounts and are now editing
[08:01:17] <legoktm>	 ok, are you still running into issues?
[08:01:44] <Sky_Harbor>	 And hey, legoktm: good luck in running for ASBS, by the way! :D
[08:02:02] <legoktm>	 oh, thank you :)
[08:02:04] <Sky_Harbor>	 We're still running into issues with editing: they can't play TWA properly because too many people are playing it all at once
[08:03:55] <legoktm>	 hmm, I see the throttle exemption is in place
[08:04:15] <legoktm>	 Sky_Harbor: they're editing on en.wp?
[08:04:18] <Sky_Harbor>	 I thought this would be fixed when I asked for IP limits to be lifted for this seminar -- perhaps it was only done for account creation
[08:04:22] <Sky_Harbor>	 Yup, en.wiki
[08:05:50] <legoktm>	 yeah, the throttle exemption is only for account creation
[08:06:24] <legoktm>	 the error message is just saying "action throttled"?
[08:06:38] <legoktm>	 can you give me the username of one of the users running into issues?
[08:08:22] <legoktm>	 Sky_Harbor: ^
[08:08:29] <Sky_Harbor>	 Sure, hold on
[08:08:40] <Sky_Harbor>	 Here's one: User:Mycamaala
[08:08:56] <Sky_Harbor>	 Yup, the error message just says "action throttled"
[08:13:36] <legoktm>	 heh
[08:14:05] <legoktm>	 log says "tripped ... at 67 (limit 8 in 60s)"
[08:16:09] <Sky_Harbor>	 My non-technical self wants to ask what that means :P
[08:16:43] <Sky_Harbor>	 Unfortunately the IPs at the computer lab here are shared, so only a few people are playing TWA; the others are using VE manually
[08:17:19] <legoktm>	 oh, the limit is 8 edit actions in 60s, and your IP has attempted to make 67
[08:19:36] <legoktm>	 Sky_Harbor: so...if you give me a list of their usernames, I can manually add them to the "confirmed" group on enwp and that will have them bypass the editing rate limits
[08:20:35] <legoktm>	 otherwise they're going to get hit by 8 edits per minute for the entire IP
[08:20:40] <Sky_Harbor>	 Alright, will get them to you.  There are two classes, so I'll also have a second list prepared
[08:30:05] <Sky_Harbor>	 Okay, I was informed that for this class, I'll have to hand over the list tomorrow.  There will be another class at around 5:00 pm my time -- I can hand you their list more or less immediately
[08:32:01] <Sky_Harbor>	 legoktm: how should I hand these over?
[08:32:53] <legoktm>	 Sky_Harbor: put the list in a pastebin? https://dpaste.de/
[08:41:34] <Sky_Harbor>	 legoktm: Got it; will send shortly
[08:45:56] <Sky_Harbor>	 legoktm: https://dpaste.de/9Z4Q
[08:53:15] <legoktm>	 Sky_Harbor: "There is no user by the name "Lunaticlunatic". Please check your spelling. "
[08:53:55] <Sky_Harbor>	 legoktm: checking now; got a more complete list
[08:54:21] <Sky_Harbor>	 This should be a more correct list: https://dpaste.de/h39y
[09:01:26] <legoktm>	 Sky_Harbor: There is no user by the name "CiscoSuplico"
[09:01:59] <legoktm>	 Magttsanpedro
[09:02:20] <Sky_Harbor>	 legoktm: Apologies for my spelling -- that's "Ciscosuplico" and "Mattsanpedro"
[09:02:57] <legoktm>	 ok, all done https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log/Legoktm :)
[09:04:40] <Sky_Harbor>	 Many thanks! :D
[09:04:50] <Sky_Harbor>	 I just checked Special:Log too
[09:05:16] <Sky_Harbor>	 Hopefully this second seminar will run without a hitch
[09:05:43] <legoktm>	 no problem, good luck! :)
[09:07:09] <Sky_Harbor>	 I also found out that I could give them autoconfirm, so I'll try it this time -- if it doesn't work, I'll come back here :)

[19:24:51] <Luke081515>	 Hello, is there a possibility to whitelist a IP, and grant this IP read permissions, if normal IPs doesn't have them?
[20:16:29] <Nemo_bis>	 Luke|Dinner: yes but not in proper ways
[21:03:20] <Luke081515>	 Nemo_bis: Can you tell me how to do this?
[21:03:57] <Luke081515>	 I'm trying to install a wiki with wikidata, (private wiki), but wikidata doesn't work, if the wiki is private
[21:26:52] <James_F>	 quiddity: Do you think it'd be overkill to re-announce https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T110555 this coming week as well as this week? See e.g. the now-blue watchstars on http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Talk:Flow
[21:36:52] <Nemo_bis>	 Luke081515: by Wikidata, do you mean Wikibase?
[21:37:21] <Nemo_bis>	 or really wikidata.org
[21:38:47] <Luke081515>	 Nemo_bis: I'm using the wikidata role at mediawiki-vagrant (so it's wikibase)
[22:56:08] <Krinkle>	 prtksxna: What's an E/F test?
[23:48:18] <prtksxna>	 Krinkle: Sorry, I should've fixed the commit message.
[23:48:58] <prtksxna>	 Krinkle: We did an 'a/b' test of 4 options last time, so I named this one e/f as a joke
[23:51:16] <Krinkle>	 Ah, okay
[23:51:30] <Krinkle>	 It wasn't mentioned anywhere in the task so wasn't sure.
[23:51:32] <Krinkle>	 Just curious :)
[23:51:35] <Krinkle>	 don't mind me
