The latest socks of Ngozikal

 * Nina394586353
 * Natalya394563
 * Amanda3952
 * Nina5492452

In this one, the usernames are pretty ducky, and rather obvious in terms of username similarities, and also writing style is identical to other identified socks (there's been a bunch of Ngozikal socks popping up, so if I didn't gather enough, I couldn't quite keep up so I'll try the best I can).

If we look at this history from the Public Broadcasting Service page, you might notice these edits overlap with Kimbella3452's edit, along with some more overlaps from the account(s).

Chuck Quenano's latest socks

 * Movie Logoz Time Again
 * Stella's Logo Archive
 * Jayden the Time Time
 * Chance's Another Logo Archive
 * Stella's Angry Badger

There's just too many to list here, but a CheckUser is absolutely needed here, as seen from this remarkable overlap from this article on the Closing Logos Group Wiki. I assume you might not have read the email I sent you last night, but there's just too many sock accounts from both parties to even list, so I am doing the best I can to gather some type of evidence through the page's history. Sorry if it looks a bit weak, but the usernames are obviously similar in terms of username similarities. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 22:36, 11 June 2022 (UTC)


 * DarkMatterMan4500, Indeed, I'd not seen your e-mail message yet, but will aim to look at it tonight, together with this report and any direct messages you may have sent on IRC. Dmehus (talk) 22:45, 11 June 2022 (UTC)


 * There's one that still needs to be banned, because this guy's not the actual logo YouTuber itself who posts logos he captures.--Crazy Muzzarino (talk) 19:52, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
 * That's ❌ to the 2 parties I've listed above. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 19:56, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
 * If you closely check the personal info on his profile on the wiki you're addressing the problem at, that is one of his socks he openly used his real name at. So yes that one needs to be banned.--Crazy Muzzarino (talk) 20:10, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
 * From what I've been hearing, ThePBSArchive2020's modus operandi is usually impersonation. It could possibly be him imitating Chuck Quenano. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 12:46, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
 * And of course, another sockpuppet, which is Chance and Friends just showed up., just a heads-up. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 19:12, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I've issued a soft block locally that should at least somewhat stem these account creations, which I picked up while taking a glance at the 'abuse filter' accounts clearly created to circumvent blocks themselves. Everything here is superficial enough that I'm uncertain in taking stronger action and will defer to Doug before proceeding to lock/deeper sockpuppetry investigation unless the soft measures in the cases I did look at are circumvented. I may end up looking at the Pepsi case earlier if I get a better reading of who Chuck is and what they're on about. --Raidarr (talk) 22:42, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
 * DarkMatterMan4500, thank you for your report. This is a case of one of original user's user accounts being legitimately blocked for failing to follow the wiki's editing style guidelines despite warnings and attempts to get them to correct. That being said, their original account, original account, was left unlocked, to allow them to appeal properly (i.e., it shouldn't take much, just a commitment to not use copious alternate accounts to edit on the same wiki and to follow the wiki's style guidelines). However, in the event they've forgotten about that account or otherwise lost access to that account, I've left the most recent account unlocked, to allow them to appeal, whether locally or on Meta Wiki (we'd surely forward that to the local wiki). The other accounts have been locked, and I've globally soft blocked another range. Dmehus (talk) 02:35, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

CheckUser request for the following accounts

 * Yonnnptk
 * Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu
 * Idependient journalist
 * Dehehhe

I am asking for a CheckUser on these particular accounts as they have been editing in a similar fashion to either Anti villain or Gigdsclasp, with similar trolling tactics or otherwise disruptive behavior.

Here's a comparison of behavioral evidence and/or similar editing styles they have been using to consider: So overall, a CheckUser might be necessary, as Anti villain/Gigdsclasp has been known for resorting to sockpuppetry or lock evasion for over a year now, and these accounts need to be checked, along with any sleepers they might be carrying around. Thank you. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 19:23, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu vs. Idependient journalist
 * Idependient journalist vs. Napalm vs. Gigdsclasp vs. Omar Bongos
 * Yonnnptk vs. Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu
 * Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu vs. Anti villain vs. Ambrosio Requena (Ambrosio Requena was confirmed to Anti villain directly)
 * Dehehhe vs. Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu (These 2 diffs especially should become very obvious especially when the latter reverted to the former's revision, which means it's very obvious that ban evasion is occurring here.)


 * I hope to hear back from a Steward as soon as they see this thread. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 14:01, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
 * DarkMatterMan4500, with apologies for the delay. behaviourally, there's a fair bit of similarity between this most recent crop of accounts and some of the Anti villain (and the confirmed socks). In other terms, the first three accounts are indeed socks of this more contemporary master account and very likely socks of Anti villain and socks. As for Dehehhe, behaviourally, there's some similarity, but no similarity in other terms. As such, I've ✅ the first three listed accounts, along with two other accounts. I've left Dehehhe unlocked for now, but do be sure to keep us posted should it edit similarly, or should similar accounts created after it edit similarly. Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 01:45, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for doing so. And I am so sorry that it had to come to this, in terms of your recent resignation. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 22:36, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

Request for deletion
I would like to request the deletion of two wikis: Beach Ball Wiki (https://closingthings.miraheze.org/) and Cartoon Wiki (https://cartoon.miraheze.org/), both of which were created by Caidin Johnson, a known vandal and abuser of sockpuppet accounts. The former is also a ripoff of the CLG Wiki. Buzzfan120 (talk) 18:52, 16 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Could you elaborate on how those 2 wikis are rip-offs of the CLG Wiki? The way you worded it was very vague. As for Caidin Johnson herself, some of us are quite aware of what she does, and one Steward even took notice of that, after I reported her previous socks back in November. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 18:57, 16 June 2022 (UTC)
 * In most cases, we only delete wikis which most of its articles violated the Content policy or have severe copyright issues, usually with an extra question about this to the founder. You said the former one have copyright issues, can you give out the corresponding links for evidences? For the second wiki you mentioned, unless there is a clear violation of the policies I mentioned above, I doubt if the it can be deleted only due to the reason that the owner is a LTA. Cheers, Matttest (talk | contribs) 08:26, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
 * There is precedent for deleting wikis made by locked users where there are no other local contributors, in accordance with the Content Policy provision of "Miraheze may delete unused and empty wikis." Agent Isai  Talk to me! 14:47, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Empty or unused wikis can indeed be closed under the Dormancy Policy which is noted by the Content policy, but from what I can see those wikis they mentioned wasn’t closed or inactive, so I doubt if stewards should delete those wikis. Cheers, Matttest (talk | contribs) 02:05, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Caidin is a guy, by the way. And the Beach Ball Wiki is a ripoff of the CLG Wiki because a lot of the articles are about logos, with Caidin's signature brand of nonsense thrown in. He even went so far as to give his wiki a similar domain name (closingthings.miraheze.org) (CLG Wiki's domain name is closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org). The other wiki isn't a ripoff of the CLG Wiki, it's just a bunch of nonsense. And the only contributor to these wikis is Caidin, but he uses various sockpuppet accounts to edit the two wikis. Buzzfan120 (talk) 04:23, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
 * To add onto the evidence for Beach Ball Wiki being a carbon copy of the CLG Wiki, the Rules page for Beach Ball Wiki (closingthings.miraheze.org/wiki/Beach_Ball_Wiki:Rules) is a near-exact copy of CLG Wiki's Rules page (closinglogosgroup.miraheze.org/wiki/CLG_Wiki:Rules), even down to retaining mentions of the CLG Wiki. HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 18:34, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * First, I just want to say that Caidin is not globally locked, so I still doubt if the second wiki you mentioned shall be deleted, since it is still not marked as closed per the Dormancy Policy. However, having checked the Beach Ball Wiki, I agree that tons of pages are rip-offs of CLG wiki, so it should be deleted under the Content Policy which notes “A wiki must not create problems which make it difficult for other wikis”, which apparently it does. I think pinging Raidarr (a steward in miraheze) here will be useful for all parties. Also ping Caidin2009 to note that your wiki is being asked for deletion.

Please add Dormancy Policy exemption for FIFA Manager Modding Wiki wiki
I'm asking to add the wiki to exemption list https://fifam.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page The reason is current war in Ukraine. Last time a lot of people contacted me because they saw a notification about a possible deletion. There may be a situation where I will not be able to update the wiki. Dmitri (talk) 21:13, 18 June 2022 (UTC)


 * I've only just now seen this request. I have approved it, and added an exemption for your wiki. Take care out there. Cheers -- Void  Whispers 23:43, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

Question
Why is the URL thetoptens.com in the spam filter? FatBurn0000 (sandbox | CentralAuth) 09:10, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * This is just because in matches the entry thetoptens.com matches the spam blacklist. Cigaryno (talk) 14:55, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi, TheTopTens was banned from being linked to as it is full of abuse and unmoderated. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  15:03, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Specifically, it was added as a result of this discussion for hosting harassment towards Miraheze users. — Chrs (talk) 18:46, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * , and  But what if a page about the website's content was going to be created? FatBurn0000 (sandbox | CentralAuth) 20:53, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
 * It will not be created because thetoptens.com matches the global spam blacklist. Cigaryno (talk) 09:29, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
 * No I mean, have you considered that users might want to do that? FatBurn0000 (sandbox | CentralAuth) 13:31, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
 * See the global spam blacklist and find  here. Cigaryno (talk) 13:40, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, we have considered the fact that the community doesn't want wikis to be able to link to an abusive and unmoderated website. If you think this position should be changed you're free to present arguments as to why that should be done. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 18:41, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, but what I mean is, I'm not talking about theTopTens being used as a source itself for information, I am talking about if users wanted to create wikis and pages about its content. FatBurn0000 (sandbox | CentralAuth) 20:45, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Creating pages about TheTopTens isn't banned, only using the actual link will be prevented (if I understood what you meant correctly) Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 12:42, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I would advise you strongly consider the Content Policy when doing so, while it is not banned, you run a serious risk of violating it if posts from the site are repeated on Miraheze that are inappropriate. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  12:47, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
 * A page about TheTopTens will be created but only  was banned. Cigaryno (talk) 16:30, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
 * In addition to what others have said, there is a MediaWiki spam whitelist, which should be able to override the global whitelist. That being said, that website is quite a spammy website and has been the source of numerous Content Policy issues, so as others have said, I would advise against it.

Hit Counters
I recently completed the 'survey' and I did state that I would like to see statistics on a per page basis. Reception123 kindly responded with "I understand the need to see statistics on a per-page basis but for the time being unfortunately we don't have enough funds to be able to fully implement this. However, we are trying out hit counters which can be requested at https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/SN so you could try to that to at least have minimal statistics for the time being." So inline with Reception123's recommendation I am requesting the 'hit counter' facility please. NavySparker (talk) 13:09, 21 June 2022 (UTC)


 * The WiKi in question is 'Battle of Jutland Crew Lists Project'. Sorry I missed that off on my original posting. NavySparker (talk) 10:54, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

 * The Wiki is battleofjutlandcrewlists.miraheze.org NavySparker (talk) 16:59, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
 * This is a request for the 'Hit Counter' facility to be installed on the above Wiki please. NavySparker (talk) 15:37, 25 June 2022 (UTC)

Request for skin change at unbookswiki

 * You can contact the wiki's bureaucrat(s). Cigaryno (talk) 15:37, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
 * There are no local bureaucrats due to an ongoing local dispute which requires Steward mediation hence why Matttest asks here. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 16:05, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the delay, this is ✅. The request was enacted by proxy since nobody replied, but I found it reasonable enough to perform.
 * This delay among other things stems back to the management issue for the wiki which now falls entirely in my lap following Doug's resignation. I'm not really comfortable resolving the unbooks dispute from scratch alone, so I'll try to bring in colleagues who can partake as well and see if Doug had any final thoughts that can be built in. I'm inclined to restart the wiki's mediation from scratch on its own page. --Raidarr (talk) 18:33, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

Talk Page Access Denied On-Wiki
Hi,

I'm filing this report as I've recently noticed that a wiki,, has been denying talk page access to any user for communication. While not explicitly disallowed, it's doesn't permit communication between editors, and as such, is an obstruction on basic editing. Thanks - BrandonWM (talk • contribs • global • rights) 02:55, 24 June 2022 (UTC)


 * This was done following the consultation of Stewards due to severe Code of Conduct violations that occur on the wiki, specifically on the former comment sections and talk pages. CVT had to intervene several times on that wiki, particularly in the comments section and thus that had to be done. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 04:07, 24 June 2022 (UTC)

 * I've restored the group with the default permissions set I believe. Either way, you should now have managewiki access back to continue customizing permissions.

Requesting close for Requests for Comment/Replace reCAPTCHA with another CAPTCHA 2
There have been no comments or votes in this RfC for a period longer than a week. I therefore propose that a Steward closes this RfC. DeeM28 (talk) 12:26, 1 July 2022 (UTC)


 * ✅. Miraheze will currently keep using ReCaptchaNoCaptcha. Cigaryno (talk) 17:57, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
 * This is not the consensus of the RFC by any means. The community opposed QuestyCaptcha and hCaptcha, while noting multiple significant problems with reCAPTCHA. In addition, an alternative to reCAPTCHA such as proxy blocking gained support. Only one person, Reception123, has expressed a view that Miraheze should continue using reCAPTCHA. Naleksuh (talk) 18:32, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
 * There was no consensus to switch to anything else within any proposal in that RfC, all proposals within it were clearly consensus of oppose. So the closure of keeping CAPTCHA the same is correct. Zppix (Meta &#124; talk to me) 00:32, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

can you please delete my account?

Dear Miraheze,

I've made a mistake registering here in the first place two years ago. Will you please delete my account permanently so I could focus on other things? I don't really want to work on any Miraheze websites anymore. Thrionus (talk) 12:11, 2 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi, would you like to simply be locked which is quick/easy and restricts you from logging in, or should I forward this to Trust and Safety to 'GDPR' your account (changes name, makes it inaccessible, vanished and so forth)? Second's a bit excessive and will take longer to complete but I figure I should offer it when you say 'delete', which isn't technically possible strictly speaking. --Raidarr (talk) 12:17, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

I would appreciate a quick response if possible.This wiki is private,so steward action is needed. by Buel ·Talk·Wikimail 01:26, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

Requesting deletion of rpgmakerfes.miraheze.org
I don't need this wiki anymore. ZeusDeeGoose (talk) 21:33, 8 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi there! It appears that the wiki in question is currently closed. Unless a  of the wiki, or a user with the   permission un-closes it, the wiki will automatically be included in a list of wikis set for deletion within a matter of months. Thanks - BrandonWM (talk • contribs • global • rights) 21:49, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi, he is actually the bureaucrat of the wiki. Before commenting here, I will suggest a brief check of Special:CentralAuth, as well as the wiki request. Cheers, Matttest (talk | contribs) 03:04, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
 * ✅ by Agent Isai. Cheers, Matttest (talk | contribs) 04:04, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, I’m aware that he’s a local bureaucrat . It was a general information statement. Thanks - BrandonWM (talk • contribs • global • rights) 05:12, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Just to put a cap on this since I think there's confusion on the request. If users are sole managers of the wiki and there are no other contributors/no major or recent contributors, they can by all means request removal early. If there's more people involved then we like to establish community consensus. Zeus has been here for some time and likely knows about automatic expiration, but shortened the process for a wiki he does not intend to work on again. This will 're pool' its domain/concept much shorter than the odd 6 months normally as well as free up resources in the meantime. --Raidarr (talk) 12:15, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

I need to be an administrator in trashycelebritieswiki.miraheze.org
Can someone make me an administrator on that wiki? it is because all the administrators of that wiki are no longer active on Miraheze nor in the wiki, and because there are some pages that are candidates for deletion on the wiki and the wiki needs rules.

I want to prevent that wiki from being shut down. HeavenSmile (talk) 15:10, 10 July 2022 (UTC)

mirapedia.miraheze.org The desire to own and activate
valuable stewards, mirapedia wikipedia clone and a valuable encyclopedia for miraheze even if it is copyrighted. Closing the encyclopedia that miraheze 'Miraheze' is due to copyright does not benefit miraheze, but harms it. Please, I request that the wiki be reopened and that a bureaucrat and administrator be given to me. I promise to do my best to clear the copyrights on the wiki and make it a better wiki. Although building a wiki from scratch can lead to inactivity, editing an old wiki has always been a better option. Miraheze's biggest problem (in my opinion) is that wikis are not organized and inactive. We have valuable encyclopedias, including mirapedia, to be saved. Mirapedia means the loss of Miraheze. I request the stewards to open it.  Hey Türkiye  message? 15:37, 11 July 2022 (UTC)


 * to this link When you look, we have thousands of inactive wikis. If we want to contribute to Miraheze, we should contribute to old and useful wikis, not new ones.  Hey Türkiye  message? 17:06, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi, it will be better for stewards to review this reopen request if you can state what will you plan to do with this wiki (except cleaning up the copyright infringements). As per this essay, most wikis will never become the scale of Wikipedia after all. I will personally suggest you to narrowing down the wiki’s scope, and tell us your idea here, before asking for the reopening of the wiki. Or just start a new wiki at Special:RequestWiki, which is a better place if you want to start with a new topic of the wiki. Cheers, Matttest (talk | contribs) 08:28, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia clones are not valuable. They hinder search engine optimization in a way that can have practical consequences for the platform. They make a joke of legal compliance when attribution isn't even attempted. They (even derivatives with their own brand) tend to sap off each other in content and audience, the last time I checked there was at least a half dozen wikis in a similar scope of covering 'basically everything' with laxer degrees of notability and structure. I have zero empathy for one of them being down when there are too many options between Famepedia, Gyaanipedia, Gratispaideia, various branches of Allmedia, and closed examples like Wikihpedia and Extrapedia and that is just what I remember off the top of my head. It's endemic. These wikis unrealistically occupy the same space with no specificity, some more gratuitously than others. This doesn't get an audience, it gets one-off people or small groups that try to remake the same wheel or lack the resources to build and publish a new one.


 * You should contribute to wikis which will build upwards with a new angle or at the very least established ones that try to be their own brand, not build in a direction where there is no market niche except for simply disliking Wikipedia itself for whatever reason and wanting to make 'your own' or one that very flagrantly copies Wikipedia or implies unrealistic connection to Miraheze ('Mirapedia', which sounds a bit too official for me anyway in a wiki that is not representative of the platform). If you want to edit an old wiki, edit one of the listed projects that are open - to use your example, editing an old wiki is a better option than a closed fork that has been snubbed out by its competition into inactivity or is so fundamentally broken like Mirapedia.
 * To put this in short I will refuse any request to reopen a wiki which is topically covered by existing wikis as mentioned above (I will not accept reopen requests for Wikihpedia and Extrapedia for example) and the Stewards certainly will not restore wikis which have not made an attempt at being their own project like Mirapedia. I welcome a broader community discussion or general feedback if this assessment is not satisfactory. --Raidarr (talk) 12:33, 12 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi @Raidarr, first of all thank you for writing a long text. I know. Wikis, which are a fork of wikipedia, are sometimes insecure and stolen. now I took some inspiration from wikipedia on my homepage in my wikiretet project. Thanks also to @Masttest for the warning I will edit it as soon as possible in accordance with the content policy. (please link to content policy) . i will fix it as soon as possible. I have a few questions in my mind; I expect you to answer these questions.

Hey Türkiye's questions to Raidarr

 * 1:) Mirapedia seems a bit like the official establishment of Miraheze, but if it was really your wiki (which belongs to Miraheze), how would you close it?
 * reply: Unclear question. Miraheze would not authorize a general wikipedia wiki nor would I do so myself. If it did then its terms would be set via through community discussion. I wouldn't necessarily veto a wiki called 'mirapedia' because it confers association, but I would encourage it to separate itself from any official recognition that it doesn't have. --Raidarr (talk) 00:59, 13 July 2022 (UTC)


 * 2:) There are many wikipedia inspired encyclopedias like Mirapedia. For example, you created a wiki identical to wikipedia. would you copy this wiki from Wikipedia or would you make it yourself?
 * reply: I never wish to create a wikipedia-type wiki because a) it will have little merit alongside the existing Wikipedia and b) it would topically conflict with existing pseudo-wikipedia projects we already host. However if I were to do it I would very much hope to write the content myself/encourage it be original. Even with attribution (which is the bare minimum requirement to pull word for word) having essentially duplicate content articles doesn't help stand out and there are already archive sites if that is the reason. I'd want to personally operate it in a way that brings something new to the table. But deciding what that is would be the key. --Raidarr (talk) 00:59, 13 July 2022 (UTC)


 * 3:) for example User XXX created a wiki. her name is Princesswiki. You just found out that the homepage of this wiki is stolen from wikipedia. would you close this wiki?


 * reply: If the homepage is taken line by line without attribution and that's the only issue then I would push for attribution. If that is the only issue then it is not reflective of a systemic Content Policy issue as was the case with Mirapedia, and so is very minor and should not result in a wiki closing. It's also much less likely to hinder the site on principle if only the front page design is used functionally to support otherwise original content pages. It doesn't have to just be one page either considering it's quite common for wikis to draw from Wikipedia backend (templates, modules and such). Since these are typically imports with inline attribution this is not an issue. --Raidarr (talk) 00:59, 13 July 2022 (UTC)


 * 4:) For example, let's say I deleted all the pages in mirapedia, instead of mirapedia, I found an encyclopedia topic that was not stolen from another wikipedia. Can you delete the pages and give permission (I'm talking about bureaucrat and administrator authority) or can you clear mirapedia from copyright and allow to install the encyclopedia from the beginning?


 * reply: If you want to re-request a Mirapedia with a clear scope and game plan and not engaging in the issues of the previous project, I would support a drop of the old database so a new one can be made as the clean slate you're talking about. Assuming it would pass the standard wiki creation process. This would be far simpler than purging every page on the existing setup to leave it blank, getting a more appropriate scope approved from the Stewards and then following the necessary local elections process. --Raidarr (talk) 00:59, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

I would appreciate it if you could answer these questions @Raidarr. This is a really important issue, some encyclopedias in Miraheze can be stolen from wikipedia, I am waiting for your opinions on this. Thanks  Hey Türkiye  message? 17:31, 12 July 2022 (UTC)


 * For coherence/brevity I have concentrated the tangents above in a single response, forgive my interruption of the desired format.

NOTE: The questions are available above.  Hey Türkiye  message? 07:42, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
 * If any other wikis are stolen directly from Wikipedia (ie, mass import of content without attribution) like Mirapedia then feel free to report them; if they do have attribution then the most I can say is that I really don't care for them but they aren't inherently a content policy issue. It's looked at case by case though. I'd be uncomfortable shutting down a wiki that has attribution but is still a flagrant/sloppy duplication on my own unless more factors are involved. --Raidarr (talk) 00:59, 13 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Thank you @Raidarr for answering the questions. The questions satisfied me, the authorities can archive this discussion if they wish, I wish everyone a happy day.  Hey Türkiye  message? 07:42, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Since this was an interesting tangent and we rarely outright close discussions, I'm open for anyone's input especially if the answers may not have been clear to them. --Raidarr (talk) 11:23, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

Founder account lost due to 2FA phone being lost, request bureacraut rights for successor account
Hi, I'm the successor account to the founder account of 2 wikis: https://geass.miraheze.org/ and https://gundam.miraheze.org

I had 2FA enables but unfortunately I lost the phone that had the 2FA app so that account is definitely lost, but I still have access to the email for the original account so if possible I'd like to verify it to either retrieve the original account or be granted bureaucrat rights on this successor account. I really need admin level access because I locked some vital pages to editing the other pages in both wikis. Thanks in advance!

Balofo2 (talk) 18:26, 14 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello, I'm sorry you lost the 2FA verification on your account. As far as I know, 2FA authentication is not removed by administrators. Just wait for our managers, they will help you.  Hey Türkiye  message? 07:31, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi, Former SRE here, 2FA removals are rarely done unless there's unquestionable proof that you are the account owner via another factor. That could be a GPG key clearly linked to you, committed identity, knowing a trusted volunteer in real life or having an NDA and proving your ID. This is because of the social engineering risk. A steward may want to reopen the wikis and you proceed with a local election asking for rights which would be fine but likely take a few weeks. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  08:00, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
 * If T/S, SRE, or Stewards could verify the email address linked to both accounts, could we disable 2FA? Thanks - BrandonWM (talk • contribs • global • rights) 08:08, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
 * No, that defeats the point of 2FA. If you have an email, you can reset password. That just makes it 1FA. T&S or SRE need a 2nd factor that's undeniable and not point in time (linked discord account is not enough) ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  08:24, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry to say that looking further it's just not possible to circumvent the 2fA part, which requires an extremely high confidence/burden of proof that most users tend not to have in place, nor are they in place here. If T&S or SRE can think of a way that is prominent to this case to do something different, I welcome them to point it out. Otherwise from the Steward perspective we will have to go the long way of a local election, which should just be a formality here and only take some time to meet your second request of being granted rights on the successor account. If there are things protected to autoconfirmed in the meantime or specific admin functions you'd like to be modified, we can take those requests here until it's settled. --Raidarr (talk) 11:48, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the support but both wikis are closed so I can't edit or create a new page for the local election process. Could someone please open both wikis for this? Balofo2 (talk) 17:45, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

Issue with an anon on Trashy Celebrities Wiki
Anonymous user 74.194.244.147 has constantly been adding content on the mh:trashycelebritieswiki:Mathieu Brunet (2016-Present) page on Trashy Celebrities Wiki stating that Brunet is "stupid," should die, and should get arrested for his actions (even though he hasn't done anything illegal). I have already told him that calling him "stupid" is potentially cyberbullying, and I don't really need to explain what's wrong with the other two. He has constantly been re-adding it despite my attempts to get him to stop it. Could a steward or global sysop please block him from the wiki temporarily? I have to ask here because all of the admins are inactive. Thanks, FatBurn0000 (sandbox | CentralAuth) 21:34, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
 * In light of the recent discussion started by Raidarr on that wiki about closure and upon the general agreement of Stewards, I have closed the wiki which technically resolves this matter. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 01:51, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Why did you do that? The discussion wasn't finished, and also, all of the pages that violated the Content Policy were a candidate for deletion. FatBurn0000 (sandbox | CentralAuth) 20:45, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
 * The discussion was originally just meant to last a week or so and technically wasn't even a discussion but instead a forewarning of what was to happen. Because the wiki will always have negative topics as it's main focus, it would be hard to prevent any future pages from containing injurious claims in the future. As such, after conferring with 2 other Stewards, I actioned this topic and closed the wiki or else another Steward would have done the same this very week. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 21:40, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
 * "It would be hard to prevent any future pages from containing injurious claims in the future." How? If new administrators were promoted, that issue would be fixed. Also, regardless, you could say the exact same about mh:reallifevillains:Real Life Villains Wiki, and yet it's allowed to exist. FatBurn0000 (sandbox | CentralAuth) 00:59, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

Local election proccess iniated to recover bureaucrat rights on sucessor account
Hi, as most people are already aware I'm the successor account to the founder of the https://gundam.miraheze.org/wiki/. So I created the page for the local election process here: https://gundam.miraheze.org/wiki/Admin_Election. Since there won't be any opposition I hope I can get the rights back ASAP. Thanks in advance! Balofo2 (talk) 00:11, 21 July 2022 (UTC)


 * As previously noted by the SRE team members, we cannot verify that you are the successor account of Balofo, so it is already advised for you to check out the local election page for getting your rights back. Briefly, the process should take at least 4-7 days (you seemed to place this request after 10 minutes of you election), and the request should usually be placed in Talk:Main Page (your linked election page is in the mainspace, which doesn't serve the purpose to inform the users), in your case when there are no project pages for the community to discuss any issues. Please follow the procedures stated, and re-note the stewards here when the election has passed for 4-7 days, and you should been granted admin and bureaucrat rights at that time by steward discretion.
