Stewards' noticeboard/Archive 36

__NOINDEX__

Free Editing Wiki

 * Agent Isai responded in a thread above that 500 is too high of a limit and could potentially cause strain on Miraheze's servers. As the sole bureaucrat and administrator on the wiki in question, I don't think that asking Stewards to raise the parser function limit for that wiki in particular would be very useful, given its nature. Tali64³ (talk) 15:19, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Maybe 250 could suffice? Several pages and templates have issues relating to the expensive parser limit. Bbbtest (talk | contribs | e-mail | please vote on my adminship ) 15:22, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Agent recommended a 150 function limit in the mentioned thread. That's generally the most that Wikipedia templates use. Tali64³ (talk) 15:24, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * The pages that were exceeding limit both had about 210 expensive calls, so 300 would probably be appropriate. Bbbtest (talk | contribs | e-mail | please vote on my adminship ) 15:40, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * For a wiki like freeediting I would concur that 150 should be the starting point and no more unless strictly necessary. I'd even suggest reducing the templates themselves if they really keep hitting upper bounds - the road works both ways. Perhaps we can look at the pages in question and optimize them. --Raidarr (talk) 15:41, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Correction: the calls were actually 333 and 150 respectively. The templates with the most calls are: ping, reddit. Bbbtest (talk | contribs | e-mail | please vote on my adminship ) 15:43, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * How many people did you ping? Agent Isai  Talk to me! 15:44, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Only the same few people, but the calls add up. Every user pinged seems to use 3 expensive calls. Maybe if the variables extension was enabled, the expensive calls could be reused. Bbbtest (talk | contribs | e-mail | please vote on my adminship ) 15:46, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * The variables extension would be nice to have for a lot other reasons too, but it still won't completely solve the expensive parser function issue. Bbbtest (talk | contribs | e-mail | please vote on my adminship ) 15:58, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * For ping in particular I'll reiterate my advice elsewhere; if a lot of expensive pings are involved then some more efficient form of contact should be considered because I'm not sure what the need is for all those calls if pings make up a significant portion of 300+ calls at 3 calls apiece. --Raidarr (talk) 15:58, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Here's the source code: https://freeediting.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Ping&action=edit Bbbtest (talk | contribs | e-mail | please vote on my adminship ) 16:01, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * ...I'm very skeptical of the need to add that many additional elements to the ping. It's an expensive enough function where its overuse is discouraged including mass pinging of so many prospective people, at which point a more economic announcement would be preferred since you'd obviously be notifying a great deal of the wiki's population (in this case several times the amount of active users). --Raidarr (talk) 16:04, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I did fifty as that's what the docs say is the ping limit. Bbbtest (talk | contribs | e-mail | please vote on my adminship ) 16:06, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Technical limits of the software can often exceed limits of what is practical. That's what I'm trying to impress. --Raidarr (talk) 16:31, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Well, I don't think it really matters though. The expensive parser function count count is proportional to the amount of users pinged, so reducing the amount of arguments wouldn't help. One thing I'm unsure of is where an expensive function is actually called. Bbbtest (talk | contribs | e-mail | please vote on my adminship ) 16:40, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * This circles back to what I said originally, which is essentially: why do you need to do all of that on one page in the first place? --Raidarr (talk) 16:52, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Do what? Ping users? Why would I do that across multiple pages? I'm not mass pinging, it's just the cumulative EPFs from the same few users ping each other. Bbbtest (talk | contribs | e-mail | please vote on my adminship ) 17:02, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I've marked as by proxy on two counts besides the line of questioning above on need; for one this was never technically valid because the requestor is not a bureaucrat, and for two the bureaucrat in recognition of the wiki's deeper issues has decided on closing it, meaning this can serve no purpose. --Raidarr (talk) 18:26, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * The wiki is also closed now. Bbbtest (talk | contribs | e-mail | please vote on my adminship ) 18:27, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Raidarr already mentioned that. Tali64³ (talk) 18:35, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Oh. I didn't see for some reason. Bbbtest (talk | contribs | e-mail | please vote on my adminship ) 18:38, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

Requesting lifting of current user restrictions
Hi there, I'd like to request the lifting of the user restrictions imposed by Stewards as outlined here. I believe I have improved on concerns that were raised earlier by Stewards, and have shown competency in multiple fields on and around Miraheze. I am happy to answer any questions or concerns. BrandonWM (talk • contributions • global • rights) 03:22, 7 March 2023 (UTC)


 * For the first paragraph you link, I think that what Raidarr mentions isn't a restriction and is just generally good practice. "the interest needs to be in context of what you can do so it does not for example confuse people on the SN" is valid for everyone. As a general rule, people should only reply on SN if they are relatively certain about their answer as otherwise they risk confusing users who are looking for the correct answers.
 * As for the registration restrictions, I also don't see why they would need to be removed and again believe that it's best practice for everyone to do so. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 11:27, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
 * If it isn't a restriction, could you confirm then that all existing Steward restrictions have expired/been removed? There have been issues lately regarding miscommunication and confusion regarding my restrictions, with multiple users (including me) having believed that all existing restrictions had expired besides T/S. BrandonWM (talk • contributions • global • rights) 17:08, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't want to lift something that I don't know exists so what I can say is that the restrictions you mention given by Raidarr can be lifted at this stage. I must emphasize however that as I said above they are good practice anyway and therefore I wouldn't recommend straying away from them even if they're not formal 'restrictions'. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 19:23, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I just spoke with Raidarr via Discord and they confirmed that no further Steward restrictions are in effect, as you just terminated the last remaining ones. I still have a Meta sysop restriction (see AN) but other than that, nothing. And yeah, I know it’s still general convention. Just nice not to have it codified/restricted explicitly for me.

Revoke Famepedia's custom domain and merge it with the countless other generic encyclopedias on Miraheze
Famepedia recently redirected its custom domain to some for-profit business or something, so now visiting famepedia.miraheze.org takes you to a completely irrelevant website. I can't even visit their main page, but you can view the wiki's recent changes page at least.

Now, we have enwiki.miraheze.org, allpedia.miraheze.org, and famepedia.miraheze.org that are both generalized encyclopedias about  with hardly any rules. They've repeatedly gotten in trouble for mass-importing Wikipedia pages and are just horribly managed. I'd say that ingen.miraheze.org is sort of a similar topic, except they don't like Wikipedia's no censorship rule, so given that it's the only encyclopedia we have here that isn't abandoned, maybe it'd be the one that the other wikis should be merged into. However, allpedia.miraheze.org appears to be more active (mostly consisting of people vandalizing it and raidarr reverting the edits), so maybe it's the one that the other wikis should be merged into, and ingen.miraheze.org could be left out of it. Collei (talk) 19:23, 8 March 2023 (UTC)


 * I've unset the custom domain. I will review the wiki and confer with fellow Stewards on what to do with the wiki. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 23:56, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Collei (talk) 02:46, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Update for observers; ingen and famepedia are gone. Allpedia remains, such as it is. If you find further issue with it (ie, imported pages without attribution) I can address it in a local capacity through direct message or an update here. --Raidarr (talk) 18:29, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

Severe Content Policy Violations On Drawn Fanon Feet Wiki
To start off, this is one of the most disgusting wikis I have ever had to visit. The amount of content policy violations on this wiki is innumerable, the wiki itself should never have been approved. But I'll go ahead and list a few violations here. '''Please be warned, some or all of the links contain sensitive content. You visit these links at your own risk.''' There are countless NSFW and fetish violations on the wiki, and the wiki's content will likely be seen as disturbing. The wiki has violations of Article I, Section VI and Article II of the Content Policy. This would be systemic violations (Article III, Section II).


 * Sierra/Purple Dog: The dog illustrated in the header image is uncomfortably young, users on Discord have shared that sentiment. Additional images on the page suggest youth, specifically this file. This is a direct violation of Article I, Section VI of the Content Policy.
 * Charles/Avocado Cat: The cat illustrated in the header image is again uncomfortably young, and this file again displays it. This is a direct violation of Article I, Section VI of the Content Policy.
 * Mikey/Orange Bird: The bird illustrated in the header image yet again displays a supposedly young animal. Another relevant file is located here. This is a direct violation of Article I, Section VI of the Content Policy.

I highly recommend Stewards take a look at this wiki and take appropriate action as soon as possible. BrandonWM (talk • contributions • global • rights) 04:38, 27 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Coroners and Justice Act 2009 comes to mind. Collei (talk) 05:20, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your report. Initially, I thought no action would be approriate for this wiki as I didn't believe this wiki violated any clause however, upon re-reading the 6th clause of the Content Policy and conferring with a fellow Steward, I have decided to review it further and will be looking into this more.

New page for RfC Drafts
Could we make a page for the Draft RfCs instead of putting them on the Community Noticeboard? (CN) I know that the CN is a good place to put something you want people to see, and to give feedback on, but it is taking up a lot of space. It is starting to get crowded and hard to find topics that I could possibly help with. It also slows my computer down, so I can't find those topics fast. So could I (or someone else) make a page for all the RfC Drafts and move them there? Thank you, Commetiaa (talk) 18:08, 18 March 2023 (UTC)


 * You can place draft RfCs as a Requests for Comment subpages (for example, if you wanted to make an RfC mandating that everyone likes apples, you can perfectly draft is at Requests for Comment/Order apple supremacy). Once you make a draft, just add it to the drafts section of the Requests for Comment page. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 05:10, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I'm talking about the voting and what seems to be RfC drafts already on the CN. The ones I'm talking about are: (these are the topic numbers) 3, 8 (and 8.2), 18, 19 and 20. Commetiaa (talk) 23:10, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
 * (re-replying) I'm talking about the voting and what seems to be RfC drafts already on the CN. The ones I'm talking about are: (these are the topic numbers) 1, 2, 6 (and 6.2), 16, 17 and 18. It is really starting to bug out my computer. So could I please do so? Commetiaa (talk) 00:03, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
 * The issue here seems to be is multiple requests for an obscure permission (IRC group contact) and minor or not quite global discussions about issues. There aren't 'draft rfcs' on it. MacFan has posted an RfC on electing group contacts where you can stake your position and possibly get them off the Community Noticeboard in the future. I agree it's not really the best place for them, though for obscure informal roles the CN the best place to start until a better process is in place. The other discussions are an influx of uniquely involved conversations that should not be placed elsewhere, although I would rather see the minor items like the Content Policy adjustments take place through the RfC process anyway and only be advertised on the CN. That would take its own discussion to do and cannot be arbitrarily enforced even if Agent were to agree with you on this.
 * Overall despite there being room to improve procedurally, the amount of content on the page is unusual and much of it will soon disappear because most of the topics have already been closed or they're already winding down. The computer problem seems like weak hardware or connection. Valid to consider but obscure. The items that have already been closed could be archived manually without issue. I would not advise altering things that have not yet been closed. --Raidarr (talk) 13:48, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Okay, that makes more sense. The thing with my computer is that it just needed restarted.  Could I (when the discussions are closed and/or resolved) archive them? Since they are unneeded in the CN, and they are just taking up space. Or do I have to become a Sysop/Admin? Commetiaa (talk) 16:39, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Archival happens automatically, usually about two weeks after the discussion has tapered off completely/been closed. It would probably be fine to archive the ones that are currently closed now. I wouldn't archive more than that unless automatic archival isn't working right in which case anyone can do it in that timeframe. --Raidarr (talk) 18:50, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Okay, where do I archive them? Commetiaa (talk) 22:29, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
 * They are typically in collapsibles on the right hand side just below the header, let me know if you don't find the box. Archived sections are added chronologically to the latest archive. The latest archive for the CN is Archive 36 and it will continue until the page gets too long (you can get a gist of what that is through previous archives). As long as you follow the chronology you should be fine. If not, it'll be fixed, so don't worry too much. For the most part archives do happen automatically and this should only be done rarely/when the automated system is down. --Raidarr (talk) 13:03, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Okay, thank you! I have started Achieving old and closed topics. I am going to do that if the CN gets full again. Commetiaa (talk) 21:14, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

A vandal needs to be globalled
Hi. There's a vandal/troll on Incredible Characters Wiki called "NinetyRightyFourNineteen" who not only vandalized several pages, but also harrassed a few users on that wiki, so I think they need to be globally locked from Miraheze as a whole right now. Thanks.

Here's the evidence of the trouble they've caused: https://greatcharacters.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/NinteenRightyFourNinteen https://greatcharacters.miraheze.org/wiki/User_talk:SinisterSyndicate757728

Possible CoC violation?
Good evening Miraheze stewards. I am here to report a page on the Horrible Music Wiki about their page on "Toxic fandoms and hatedoms" and as far as I'm aware, Miraheze doesn't allow any (negative) content related to various groups on the internet (including Fandoms and Hatedoms). If this page is a violation, then I request to delete it but if it's not, then leave it be. Snorunt (talk) 23:18, 14 March 2023 (UTC)


 * While negative content related to internet groups have caused problems in the past (in fact, several wikis focusing entirely on such content were closed a couple of years ago), that doesn't mean that the concept of such content is prohibited. However, the page linked only has 4 references for many claims, which seems like a Content Policy violation (the several policies regarding user conduct, most notably the Global Conduct Policy, formerly just the Code of Conduct, concern user behavior, not wiki content). Tali64³ (talk) 01:51, 15 March 2023 (UTC)


 * I think that the wiki itself should be deleted, like all those other reception wikis. Buzzfan120 (talk) 22:47, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Qualitipedia in its original form (the eight reception wikis covering four different subjects) was closed following a community vote (it was revived as New Qualitipedia); just because those wikis closed doesn't mean that the other reception wikis should close. Tali64³ (talk) 00:58, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Strictly speaking, 'negative content' is not disallowed. That's a Fandom thing. Tali is correct that a) this is not a 'code of conduct' issue and b) the basis for requesting deletion of the wiki is not correct.
 * I have a line of contact with the wiki operator. I'm not a fan of intervening formally here unless the issue is more pronounced, but I'll bring it up with them and my colleagues to see what should be done informally (escalating if it goes unresolved). There is a good case here that this article runs afoul of provision 3 in the CP, specifically 'unsubstantiated rumors' (not necessarily insult imo). With this and the below issue, please ping me if there is no progress within a week. --Raidarr (talk) 09:01, 4 April 2023 (UTC)

'Never mind, I am stepping down, due to lack of inactivity on this Wiki. Thank you. Commetia/Kazakhar (talk/Contact) 15:33, 17 April 2023 (UTC)' I know, I know, when I requested for the Cosmos Skin to be enabled, I said I did not want to take over the Wiki, but when I took more time on it, I have found that it needs some major help. Also, most of the pages don't have anything on them. This Wiki needs help! The Bureaucrat has only made 17 edits, and there has been no activity for over 45 days.

I'm calling a stewards:

So the day has finally arrived, today I am officially announcing my departure from Miraheze after one year and three months on this farm. I remember I used to have a lot of fun creating and editing pages here, but this farm has deteriorated significantly and started to set rules that I didn't like at all and also lost interest because I feel like I don't have much to do here anymore. For this reason, I am severing all ties with this farm and my era of operation here has just come to an end.

It's hard to believe, but this is where I started all my editing activities, which I've been doing for over a year, but speaking of history, I first joined Crappy Games Wiki on January 7 last year as a totally inexperienced user who made poor edits just like everyone else and created tiny pages, but with time I started to work better and created a Qualitipedia version of this farm at the end of existence and even became a moderator on CGW and AGW and an administrator on TNRW, so I achieved great success and managed to create 2 wikis here, all of which are closed.

Thank you all for being with me all this time together, but I have decided to finally end it, and I have one request for the stewards, could you globally ban this account and delete all pages related to this account? I have no intention of returning here at least in the near future, if not at all, because I no longer feel satisfied here. I will still be active on Telepedia so you can still contact me there.

TheMisterEpic@ogsmpwiki
As the prior bureaucrat went innactive on the wiki leading it to close months ago, I stepped up and reopened it, and now need to have the ability to moderate it. My minecraft server has hundreds of players, and has been vandalised many times over the past few days by players who have been banned from the server. We have had a vote in the wikis discussion page, with a clear outcome, so I would like to be promoted to bureaucrat and the prior innactive bureaucrat (Yeeterwtf) be demoted, as they were also banned from the community due to threats of doxxing months ago. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheMisterEpic (User talk:TheMisterEpic • Special:Contributions/TheMisterEpic) 03:09, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for alerting us to this local election. Once the 7 day voting period is done, we'll check in on this election. As stated previously on Discord, you don't need people to vote in your election anyhow so most of the votes from new users are procedurally invalid and won't be taken into account so please don't try to get people from your Discord or MC server to vote if they're not wiki editors, it should be smooth sailing for the most part and this is really just a formality. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 03:09, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Everyone who edits the wiki is from my discord, thats how they found out about it because I told them there. There is not a single wiki editor or user that is not from my servers discord, and like I mentioned to you in the miraheze discord, my players don't know what an election is or where to vote, so I had to tell them in the discord how it works.

Since the main bureaucrat is not as active anymore and I am a semi-regular active user I would like to request an administrator role to make changes to the wiki as necessary. Icupanon (talk) 21:43, 18 April 2023 (UTC)


 * I am Grassstains, the only active administrator on the infinitycup wiki, and I would like to request Icupanon be given bureaucrat role, so that they can assign other roles to important maintainers as required. Grassstains (talk) 00:30, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
 * (Non-steward comment) To be promoted, there usually has to be a local election. Has any election taken place? Globe (talk) 22:27, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
 * A local election would typically/previously be necessary. However, following a recently passed RfC, a provision officially exists to allow appointment in cases where a community is not present. In this case there is exactly one other member of the community who can comment (with any recent activity), a strongly established local sysop. In this circumstance I believe it is fair to give full administrator and bureaucrat access outright to maintain the wiki with the understanding that the wiki's scope as requested will continue. I have now ✅. --Raidarr (talk) 02:25, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Makes sense. Thanks for informing me @Raidarr. Globe (talk) 14:56, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

Yeeterwtf@ogsmp
This was the original creator of the wiki, prior to it becoming deleted. This user was permanently banned from the minecraft server due to threats of doxxing, and is no longer part of the community. As such, I would like to request that this user has the bureaucrat role taken away from them, as they are also no longer active.

Also, I think I may have accidentally messed up the removal instructions, I apologise for that I tried to fix it.
 * I've fixed your request for you. When filling in the request template, make sure to remove the markup notating comments whenever appropriate. Additionally, whenever you sign with four tildes ( ~ ), go into the source editor and make sure there aren't  tags surrounding them. You can switch editors by clicking the pencil icon in the top-right corner of the editor. Tali64³ (talk) 11:00, 5 April 2023 (UTC)

I only temp ranked him to change the wiki's stuff like skins and such, but recently, he started ranking random members including indef blocking and ranking a steward-blocked user to bureaucrat. I have no idea what his intent was but I know I can't have it on the wiki. Please rank all ranked users in the scenario back to their original user ranks (as well as changing the blocked user back to his original block expiration). Update: the list of people who still have their rights from the incident are as follows: KirbyYesSaltCoverNo (who I suspect could be an alt, might have to run a checkuser)

Tali64's Wiki

 * Hello, after looking at this request I am reluctant to authorize an exemption. There's three main paths an exemption is justified; it has a distinct audience ("the wiki is read"), it is fairly content-complete, and/or it is subject to distinct seasonal editing. This is a rephrased version of what the Dormancy Policy indicates. The trouble (and I say this without compromising the privacy of your wiki, part of why I started this in DM first) is that I don't think any of these persuasively apply. The wiki has no audience as it is private; it is not at all content-complete as it has many stubs or otherwise short pages (some interesting stuff don't get me wrong, but weak to justify from a content basis) and it doesn't seem there is an immediate need or real chance that the wiki will be neglected in the near future. What I'd suggest is holding off on this until a more distinct need arises, ie, a temporary exemption based on circumstances that will take you away longer than the ~2 month period before closure. Let me know if you want to hold off, to avoid requesting for now, or if you want me to solicit another Steward to comment (the standard is not unified though it arguably should be). I could review a different pitch but as presented I don't feel the basis of need is met.--Raidarr (talk) 21:29, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
 * After thinking about it some more, I'd like to withdraw this request. The concerns you present are reasonable, though a majority of pages on the wiki are over 1,000 bytes, so it's not exactly full of stubs. The only issue remaining now is whether it's acceptable for me to make the wiki public once it reaches 50 pages (I'd initially intended for the wiki to be publicly accessible, but a wiki creator approved it as a private wiki); it could be considered a scope change, which requires approval from Stewards to be able to be performed (although it's a minor change, so it'd probably be fine). Tali64³ (talk) 21:55, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
 * As a Steward I have no issue with your wiki being publicly visible and I approve such a change in advance. Otherwise, per discussion and withdrawal. --Raidarr (talk) 23:09, 20 April 2023 (UTC)

Violations of Mirahaze policy regarding unsubstantiated insult, hate or rumours against a person or group of people (PixelPlace Wiki)
Hello stewards! Today I came across a wiki called the PixelPlace Wiki, which generally seems to be filled with spam pages, lots of insults and even in some cases sexual content:

Examples:

 * The content policy does not forbid sexual content, though it does place regulations on it. The Terms of Use also forbid child pornography. However, I feel that it is very likely that the others could be a violation (though I am not a Steward). Did you get in touch with the wiki's local administration?

Wiki repair request
Hi, Meta admins! I'd like to start this request with the stuff that happened on the Mushimoon wiki. I tried to make a new design for the wiki, I accidentally made an oddity. My wiki no longer has the Desktop button and does not go to make the changes properly. I have two buttons, the login, the menu is different. I ask you to repair it and bring it to its original state on April 7, 2023 the day my wiki was created. I can't fix it because I don't have the experience and I think you guys will do better than I do as you are more here. Thank you! Best20 (talk) 12:12, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

Tp give those rights to a role you already have, navigate the Special:ManageWiki/permissions page for your wiki and select the role that should be able to grant your custom roles. Switch to the 'Group Assignments' tab, and ensure that the 'can add to others' box is checked for each of the custom roles you want to be able to grant. --NotAracham (talk • contribs • global) 20:05, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

Admin and bureaucrat rights for Podpedia
Hello, I am CoolieCoolster but on my new account CoolieCoolster1. For context, I used to be an administrator on Podpedia (a wiki about podcasts) on my old account, I've lost interest on the wiki a few years ago, but now I am back. I am unable to recover my old account, and Podpedia currently has no active administrator, so what I would like to do is adopt the wiki, which is basically retrieving bureacrat and admin rights on an inactive wiki with no active admins or bureaucrats. The wiki is also generally inactive and has most of its recent changes being user account creations/welcome messages, so nothing much. I hope I could adopt the wiki, and thanks!

 * Thanks for the report. While I will be running checkusers as well, due to the persistent nature of spambots, there is generally no need to create individual checkuser requests on SN as if everyone were to do so it this page would probably be 20 times larger. We have taken some measures to address the spambot issue but unfortunately it is very difficult to do so. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 11:06, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

 * Thank you for looking into this. I totally agree with you that local admins flooding this page with CU requests is far from ideal but with the recent uptick, it might just help the global community if it led to enough IP ranges being globally blocked. What alternative do you have in mind?
 * I did try using the Moderation extension when some edits had managed to go through the abuse filters previously but it led to a lot of confusion among community members. The alternative, albeit imperfect, is creating local abuse filters for edits that do not get picked up by the global ones, which is what we have been doing for some time. 16:24, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Please respond. Redmin Contributions CentralAuth (talk) 17:14, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
 * As I indicated before, spambots tripping abuse filters and actually editing is extremely rare. As such, while it can be useful to CU and block spambot IPs it's not urgent or a priority. I will try to get to it when time allows. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 17:17, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

It will/should be considered alongside the request made for Incredible Characters Wiki. --Raidarr (talk) 22:52, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Alright, but I am wondering if there's an update now. BlastoiseTheWikiEditor (talk) 18:45, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I have looked into this following the completion of my RfS, and it's pretty dang clear without even CU that Daniewwwwwwaaaa4 and DodgeRamFan06 are indeed JimFrank. It's a strange case because Jim is not blocked so there is no evasion, and while his overuse of all caps is unconstructive it is not a global issue. In other words I do not see the abuse, aside from what could be characterized as a deceptive attempt to secure multiple confirmed accounts for no good reason. I am inclined to take no action here and just make a note of it, though the wiki is at liberty to block these alts as unconstructive. I encourage reporting if these or other accounts are made to circumvent a block going forward. I've inquired about these accounts to him locally. --Raidarr (talk) 19:42, 19 April 2023 (UTC)
