Accounts being created automatically
Hi, on my wiki it shows that the following accounts were created automatically in my User creation log:

01:50, 11 September 2020 User account InternetArchiveBot talk contribs block was created automatically 00:07, 6 September 2020 User account RedTheShadowWarrior73 talk contribs block was created automatically 01:23, 1 September 2020 User account Pppery talk contribs block was created automatically 01:15, 1 September 2020 User account MusikAnimal talk contribs block was created automatically

I'm unsure what this is (e.x. spam) since neither me nor any other editors I've invited to my Wiki are using these accounts, thanks.--Callipedia (talk) 18:37, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
 * This is part of the Miraheze wiki configuration, and, unfortunately, cannot be changed. If a user is signed in on another Miraheze wiki when they visit your wiki, they are automatically signed in to your wiki by attaching their accounts upon visiting your wiki. Also, if you import templates from other wikis and choose to assign contributions to local Miraheze users, their accounts will be attached in that event, which looks like it may be the case given three of those users are local Miraheze users who contribute to Wikimedia wikis rather extensively. Hope this helps. Dmehus (talk) 18:41, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
