[00:34:25] phabricator is going offline for a short (hopefully) server maintenance starting momentarily [14:56:52] <[1997kB]> why there's not that This username isn't registered here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?target=Network123&namespace=all&tagfilter=&start=&end=&limit=50&title=Special%3AContributions [14:57:19] <[1997kB]> there's an old tp too but no sul account. [15:28:00] <[1997kB]> "This username isn't registered here" message.* [15:28:34] Did we SUL blocked users? [15:29:39] <[1997kB]> don't know. It was automatic I guess? or we manually selected unblocked offers only? [15:30:00] <[1997kB]> btw there's no block info locally. [15:30:27] brion might remember. Or he might not [15:30:38] I dunno if the scripts as is today represent what was run back then [15:31:32] <[1997kB]> users* btw sorry for typos [15:39:17] hmmmm, not sure offhand what happened with blocked users [15:47:54] <[1997kB]> so my question is, is there any problems if I rename a user to this username? Reedy, brion [15:50:33] I presume you're going to rename the existing user away from that name to usurp it? [15:53:18] <[1997kB]> how? there's no sul account. [15:54:20] You can still rename it on enwiki? [15:54:49] <[1997kB]> I'm renamer. I think only steward can do that. [16:00:48] <[1997kB]> https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?type=gblrename&user=1997kB&page=&oldname=Network123&wpdate=&tagfilter= looks like it's just invisible. [16:13:47] Hi anomie, can we talk? [16:15:26] wargo: ok [16:17:13] What is way to achieve cascading semiprotection on Polish Wikipedia to group "redaktorzy"? We have configured this level and we have one page with cascading protection on this level but "redaktorzy" can't edit transcluded pages (but source page can be edited). [16:17:28] If I understand they need also "protect" right [16:24:06] wargo: "cascading semiprotection" doesn't really make sense with how things are currently, since it's highly unlikely someone would have the 'protect' right but not 'editsemiprotected'. [16:25:30] And it is not possible simply by the way we would do because it would allow other members of allowed group to protect pages by just putting transclusion on parent page? [16:25:54] So we need to wait for solution on T71607? [16:25:54] T71607: Split 'protect' right in two distinct permissions (instead of using '$wgCascadingRestrictionLevels') - https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T71607 [16:30:18] wargo: That seems accurate. Although T71607 won't really fix the backdoor-protection issue, it's arguing that we should accept it. [16:33:26] So the current solution to cascading protection is useless to levels lower than sysop? [20:30:39] We are migrating back to the phab1001 server, there shouldn't be any noticeable downtime as both servers will be online simultaneously but just a heads-up in case you notice any weirdness it should be short-lived [20:49:08] migration done, no apparent issues [22:15:06] yay, thanks
