Global lock request for "ネイ"

 * User:ネイ (CentralAuth)

This is a cross wiki abuse. Also, This account is spoofing on the kerokerowikiwwiki (The main page has been stolen from Tanukipedia, and this user is impersonating an administrator of Japanese Wikipedia.). Please lock this account. Schwarz ・ Talk /  ウソペディア  03:26, 5 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Hopefully a staff member like or  will respond to your report as soon as possible. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 14:28, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
 * There's no need, really, to ping for these investigation reports on issues for which you were not involved. Stewards and Global Sysops have likely seen this thread. This will likely need further investigation, for which there would be several possible outcomes. Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 14:39, 7 December 2020 (UTC)

Two Requests Should Be Closed in RfP
Hello, there are two requests in RfP that should be closed. They have been there for more than a week. Thank you very much. R4356th (talk) 19:36, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks, yes this been on my mind. I'm involved in both as a participant, and, while I've expressed a neutral view in one of them, will let another steward close them, so I'll alert them through private channels to close. Dmehus (talk) 22:39, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Great. Thank you very much. (Let's not mark this is as done yet.) R4356th (talk) 22:42, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
 * ✅ (a long time ago, I just forgot to mention), thanks to John. R4356th (talk) 19:26, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

interwiki-admin for reviwikiwiki
Can I have interwiki-admin for reviwiki.info? I am the only crat of the wiki, there's no community - only person who is authorized to edit on this wiki (beside me) is User:Dmehus, and I'd be shocked if he object this one :P

Criteria:


 * Hold  rights on the local wiki: yes
 * Have had a Miraheze account for (a) at least two (2) weeks prior to requesting or (b) the two (2) month global user longevity requirement above: Registered: 2015-08-04
 * Have made either (a) 500 edits on the local wiki where requested or (b) the 1,000 global edit requirement above: Total edits: 2,149 (2150 with this edit)
 * Comply with any additional local rules governing the selection of local interwiki administrators
 * Be involved in some way in community matters (in discussions on Community Noticeboard, etc.): Former sysadmin, currently idling TA.
 * Have at least 1000 total global edits on Miraheze (on more than one wiki) (Note: These edits may not consist of directly copy/pasting content from other wikis, they must be edits done by the user): Metawiki: 1516(+1) edits

Thanks. &mdash; revi  15:21, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
 * You definitely meet the global or local interwiki administrator requirements without any issue. The only real issue is the holding of a local election on the local wikis. After conferring with on this, the election could technically occur anywhere (whether on each wiki or here) and, as you note, I'm essentially the only user who has participated in your public wiki (your private wiki has no community other than you, essentially), so the fact of me closing this request would be an implied local community support. That's a bit involved, sure, but on the same hand, that really is only a convention that elections should be open for three to seven calendar days. At the same time, anyone with any objection to it would have to say that the election was not in keeping with the consensus of the local wikis' community. So, with that, this is ✅. Dmehus (talk) 15:50, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

Weird accounts are showing up on our wikis
As of late, some of our admins have been making exhaustive blocks on accounts that could be possible sock/spam accounts. One primary example would be the one on Crappy Games Wiki. There's like 30+ accounts with some information mostly ending with some gibberish at the end of their names on their personal information that can be found on their user pages. Here's an example of one of them: https://crappygames.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Nip Also, could someone please investigate the User Creation logs on there as well? Link: https://crappygames.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Log/newusers And by the way, I'm not the only one who thinks something is really wrong with how these users are using similar patterns of usernames. Oh, and one more thing, these accounts have been getting created within 5 to 15 minutes. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 18:08, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

PowerJack 25 UTTP The Animator & Gamer
PowerJack 25 UTTP The Animator & Gamer is an American youtuber who joined YouTube sometime in 2019, he got terminated several times, he is also know as AndyTheCBCKidsFan, he is infamous for the reasons below, as of December 2020, his username is Jimbo

Why He's HORRENDOUSLY ATROCIOUS/Why He Needs To Get Off The Internet/Why He Needs To Get Arrested

(Late 2020)

1. He has impersonated several users(Andrew Orozco, GA BRiCKS, etc) what's worse is that he posts inappropriate comments

2. He's a cyberbully, he never leaves anyone alone

3. He can't take even the slightest amount of criticism of any kind of existence, whenever someone criticizes him, he would scream and wish death upon his haters, he would also impersonate the user who criticized him

4. He used copyrighted material just to make user videos out of people, this should have given him copyright strikes

5. He's 15 years old, however he acts more like a 5 year old, making him a huge immature teenager

6. He would sometimes send porn links to various users(especially minors)

7. He triggered several users, and Conner The Sushi Packer made a video about him

8. He forces people to watch Johnny Test, your not the boss you know

9. He keeps calling people the N word, very racist much

10. He's also homophobic as he would call his viewers the F slur

11. He's very abusive to his viewers even his best friends

(2019 - October 2020)

1. He never stop copying almost everyone's videos, he would even say it was requested by various users, and would say it was inspired by them, dude do you not know the difference between inspiration and copying, there is

2. He's a hypocrite, he told a user named HH ! Motions not to copy videos yet he copies videos himself

3. He tells lies, he lied about appearing in Andrew Orozco 4

4. He delays his movies so many times, speaking of which he doesn't know how to make real films as he rushes his films and say he's gonna make them in 5 days for example

5. He would always use copyrighted sound effects in his videos which mentioned before, which is getting annoying

6. As mentioned he claims that people requests his videos when he didn't

7. He got terminated several times, but he keeps coming back, if you get terminated you know you should not make new accounts

8. He apologizes but he keeps doing the same crap over again

Overall

1. He seems to never learn from his mistakes

2. As mentioned he uses copyright material

Redeeming Qualities

1. He was a better user back then although he was still terrible

2. His videos (now deleted) we're so bad they're good

How to deal with him

1. Report his videos, YouTube may take it down or age restrict it

2. Ignore him or you'll get in trouble — Preceding unsigned comment added by HH!MagicalReviewer (talk • contribs) 18:12, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

Hello, today I humbly request to have my wiki creator rights taken away as I do believe I'm not active enough to retain them. I am thankful that the community entrusted me with them to start with though. Thank you Hypercane  (  talk ) 22:17, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

Request for global lock of alternative account
Hello,

Having lost my original email for this account (Anderlaxe), I asked someone (I believe it was Rhinos) to open this account to allow me to continue contributing.

However, I recovered my account, and therefore the account above should be locked or deleted.

Thanks -- Anderlaxe (talk) 00:40, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I do see that RhinosF1 created Bitwise for you in this log action; however, I do note that the request was unconfirmed, I would be more confident if you could please login to Bitwise, requesting a password reset via e-mail if needed, and confirm the request for a self-requested lock. Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 00:47, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

Request a Dormancy Policy exemption for my original character wiki
Hello, I'd like to request a Dormancy Policy exemption for my original character wiki, this wiki is made to be read (especially for my friends). On the other hand, because of my academic career I haven't so much spare time to edit it. So I'd like to apply for exemption on DP. Thanks.

The wiki I mentioned is this: NKNK'sOCs wiki.

NKNK (talk) 16:36, 10 December 2020 (UTC)


 * It's 4 days since I left the message on it, there are no one respond to me. It made me so anxious that I check the noticeboard everyday. It seems that the stewards refused to my request...... NKNK (talk) 15:21, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi, if a steward has not respond it now is because they have not reviewed your request yet, don't forget that we are all volunteers here. But I will for see if they can review your request. Thanks! HeartsDo (Talk / Global / Wiki Creator) 15:59, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your explanation!!! NKNK (talk) 17:16, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Apologies for the ever so slight delay in responding to your Dormancy Policy exemption request for your NKNK'sOCs Wiki. There were a couple reasons for the slight delay in responding. Firstly, there was a swarm of spambots creating blatant spam page creations on several Miraheze-hosted wikis requiring attention of stewards and Global Sysops, mainly because the wikis were small wikis with no recently active local administrators and bureaucrats. Secondarily, when I took an initial look at your wiki a couple days ago, I didn't see that many content pages (excluding redirects) and, of those that were content pages, each page had little textual content made to be read&mdash;each page seemed only to consist of a character drawing in an infobox and a few brief facts about said character. On the other hand, you have articulated a clear need for an exemption to Dormancy Policy due to your academic career and the fact you are the only user administering and editing your wiki, both of which present challenges to you building out your wiki. Given the clear need but lack of substantive textual content, I considered granting you a time-limited Dormancy Policy exemption of one year for your wiki, mainly to get you through until your non-instructional semester at which time you may have more time for editing your wiki; however, if I knew a bit more about the purpose of your wiki (i.e., if it were just a repository of your artistic creations) and your anticipated timeframe for when you expect to build out your wiki a bit more, I'd be inclined to grant you a standard indefinite exemption to Dormancy Policy. So, with that, are you able to provide me a bit more information on the purpose of your wiki, anticipated number of content pages, and when you expect to be able to build out your wiki a bit more? Once I have that information, I should be able to grant this request expeditiously (i.e., in the next day or two). Dmehus (talk) 04:37, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I see, I'd apologize for my impulsiveness and anxiety.
 * I forgot to in stewards' shoes, there are many things to do that prior to my request.
 * I think I'd better request the exemption after I add adequate information someday.
 * The purpose is just repository these creations......sorry😔）
 * Thank you all the same.😄 NKNK (talk) 16:02, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the added reply, and no problem. Just to be clear, the drawings are your original creations? If so, I'm inclined to grant you an indefinite, though not permanent, exemption to Dormancy Policy per the added information and articulated need. Dmehus (talk) 16:12, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, the pictured are drawn by myself.（Though it is a little clumsy......）
 * Thanks.😄 NKNK (talk) 16:21, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the necessary clarification. Your artwork is quite good actually. Nevertheless, as I said above, this Dormancy Policy exemption is ✅ as a private repository of your artwork, drawings, and other rough notes or modest pieces of textual facts and information about your characters, as there is quite a need for this exemption. For one thing, you are the wiki's only contributing user and, in turn, your busy academic career precludes frequent editing. Please be advised that this exemption is indefinite, not permanent, and should you no longer require an exemption as you and a growing community of contributors are contributing to it frequently on a regular, sustained basis, please do let us know by returning to this noticeboard. Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 00:40, 16 December 2020 (UTC)

Exemption from dormancy policy and removal request
Hello, please mark Exempt from Inactivity on my wikis with reason User doing other work and will be back in near future.
 * - mrjaroslavikwiki
 * - sesupportwiki

and delete these wikis
 * - sebetawiki
 * - mrjwiki

Thanks,--MrJaroslavik (talk) 17:50, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * . Should be done shortly. Dmehus (talk) 17:52, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * While we are quite liberal in granting Dormancy Policy exemption requests,  is a bit light content wise, with only about 8-10 content pages in its main and project namespaces. Nevertheless, as you are an active community volunteer, wiki creator, and Global Sysop and because the two wikis are used together as quick reference guides for, presumably, your volunteer work as a Twitch streaming platform moderator, I've decided to ✅ the two requests, each for the following reason:
 * Volunteer (Wiki creator and Global Sysop), content is used as quick reference guides to a small audience, and the wiki does not expect many users to edit.
 * With regard to your wiki deletion requests, ordinarily we'd prefer to let Dormancy Policy take care of these, but seeing as they're both essentially duplications of your two remaining requests, these will also be ✅. Dmehus (talk) 18:33, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you, here is some explanation: sesupportwiki will be internal used for simplification of support at StreamElements and mrjaroslavikwiki for my personal things, guides not related with StreamElements services and maybe something for my friends. Deletion was because my clean-up today. Also I requested removal of my unneeded rights on two wikis.--MrJaroslavik (talk) 18:53, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Okay, thank you for clarifying. Yeah, the wiki deletions seemed like pretty non-controversial wiki cleanup essentially. Regarding the rights removals, I don't see that, but the next time the wiki deletion script is run, the deleted wikis will be removed from your CA. Did you still want me to remove the rights from the deleted wikis? Dmehus (talk) 18:57, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

 * I can't enter or do anything in the pages, unless if I'm auto confirmed/confirmed.
 * This is what I see here:
 * ==Permission Error==
 * You do not have permission to read this page, for the following reason:
 * The action you have requested is limited to users in one of the groups: Confirmed users, Members, Administrators.
 * LordOfSpaghetti (talk) 12:15, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * you should request for the Confirmed user group to that wiki's local administrators or bureaucrats.

R4356th (talk) 12:28, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the clarification, as that was the sort of detail needed to ascertain your problem. To answer your question, which will be to echo what said as well, you would need to contact any local   from   on the wiki. However, since it sounds like that wiki is a private wiki, you will not be able to do that as that special page is unavailable to you. Can you tell me which wiki this is, so I can see if I can reach out to the local bureaucrat? Dmehus (talk) 15:24, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

Lock Peter Parker for being a sockpuppet of LeroyManTheFirst (Please notice this headfirst)
Within a span of 3 or 4 days now, I had some suspicions that Peter Parker was a sock of LeroyManTheFirst, and just like that, my suspicions were confirmed, with behavioral evidence on some of his contributions: https://dreadfulbooks.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Eat_Your_Peas&oldid=1303 https://horribletvshowepisodes.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Meat,_Dog%27s_Friends_(CatDog)&diff=prev&oldid=4457

And here are some of his comments that could be proven to be even MORE suspicious than ever: https://awfulmovies.miraheze.org/wiki/Cars_2#comment-11388 https://awfulmovies.miraheze.org/wiki/Minions#comment-11471 https://awfulmovies.miraheze.org/wiki/Thomas_and_the_Magic_Railroad#comment-11376 (This part is important as LeroyManTheFirst has also said the exact same thing a little while back.) https://besttvshows.miraheze.org/wiki/LEGO_Ninjago:_Masters_of_Spinjitzu_(Pilot_Episodes-Season_6,_8-9,_12-present)#comment-3235

If you look at his activities on multiple wikis, you will notice a pattern.

I hope either or  could have a look at some of the evidence that I have gathered, including the comments that could lead directly to him. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 17:46, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for including links to diffs, which are required for such reports; however, there's a few problems with this report. Firstly, and most important, you haven't linked to a single diff from LeroyManTheFirst. Secondarily, and equally importantly, the first two diffs are hardly even vandalism; even if construed as vandalism, it's a common deletion tagging, which is easily reverted, the user warned, and user locally blocked. It is run of the mill evidence nonetheless which cannot conclusively point to the two users being connected. And finally, and no less importantly than the first two points, those are constructive comments. I don't see anything that needs to be done here, to be honest. Dmehus (talk) 17:53, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Does this username ring a bell, or no? Also, for the other things you have mentioned, some of his edit summaries are rather insults, which is something that LeroyManTheFirst himself has done before. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 17:56, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I could ping to maybe even give you some of the stuff that LeroyManTheFirst has done. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 17:59, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

 * ❌ per my comments above, and because Peter Parker is ✅ on every wiki, save one, which the user has contributed to. Any other steward may override this decision, if they wish, but for the above reasons, I see no need for the account to be locked, nor has sufficient behavioural evidence been presented. Dmehus (talk) 18:24, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

Request Dormancy Policy Exception for Vise Wiki ("Wikis made to be read, where a lot of information is already on wiki and doesn't need to be actively edited.")
This wiki I believe matches the Dormancy Policy exception of "Wikis made to be read, where a lot of information is already on wiki and doesn't need to be actively edited." https://vise.dayid.org/wiki/Main_Page Dayid (talk) 20:22, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Apologies for the modest delay in replying and assessing your request for a Dormancy Policy exemption for Dayid's Vise & Tool Wiki, which I've now done. In terms of number of content pages, it looks like you have 108 of those, concentrated exclusively in your wiki's mainspace. While most of the pages are light on textual content, you have articulated a clear need for the exemption as you are one of the only users on this wiki who edits the wiki, and your editing is infrequent. As well, I can see you've put a fair bit of effort into compiling very details, statistics, facts, and other pieces of information, mostly in the form of wikitables, about different makes and models of vises from various global vise manufacturers. Additionally, you've also taken care to compile historical advertisements that contain relevant technical information on such makes and models of vises, which, presumably, your website's visitors find quite helpful. So, this exemption is ✅ on the basis of this being a wiki used as a technical information resource about vise makes, models, and manufacturers, by a small community, with few or even only one infrequent user (chiefly, yourself) editing it. Please note that this exemption is not a permanent exemption and, should your wiki be frequently edited and maintained by an active group of users, please do let us know you no longer require the exemption.
 * Separately, I did notice that your content pages related to vise manufacturers contained only a link to either their company website or their English Wikipedia encyclopedia article, including this page in which you note that the article would be "too large of an article for this wiki." Did you know that you can import articles, either by exporting them using Special:Export and Special:Import or using a transwiki import, using the interwiki prefix from your wiki's interwiki table? You only need to import the current revision to be compliant with CreativeCommons copyright licensing requirements, and you can then adapt, truncate, copyedit, or otherwise modify the article to your wiki's needs. Additionally, you can also request additional local interwiki prefixes be added to your wiki's interwiki table by an interwiki administrator at community noticeboard, and further that you can also request the global interwiki prefix configuration be overridden locally.
 * Finally, on a light note, I smiled when I saw this Dr. Pepper can in a vise, as that is currently my preferred soda pop beverage of choice. Dmehus (talk) 00:18, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you Dmehus. This wiki was imported from another host after it was defaced years ago. It has been hard since to get contributors again - though a myriad of forums reference it as the "source of truth" for this information.
 * Regarding importing information from other wikis I have not done this as I do not intend to fork or otherwise be responsible for those articles vs deferring out to other resources for them.
 * My intention is still to add and update data to this - just one of those things that quickly goes to the back-of-the-mind amongst business in life. I am hoping to still encourage more of the people that e-mail me contributions to instead make the contributions directly. Dayid (talk) 20:35, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your reply and added information. ✅ regarding the Dormancy Policy exemption as you've articulated a clear need. Dmehus (talk) 01:10, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

Are any of these accounts related to No?
RedditRocks69420 Bobux4Life69420 RedditRocks42069 While those 3 accounts have been blocked locally on the Rotten Websites Wiki, their "real" name really caught my attention on all 3 accounts: https://rottenwebsites.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Bobux4Life69420 https://rottenwebsites.miraheze.org/wiki/User:RedditRocks42069 https://rottenwebsites.miraheze.org/wiki/User:RedditRocks69420

If you notice, their names have the exact same name of an already blocked user "No".

Also, while one of them did vandalize the Rotten Websites Wiki, I think those 3 accounts were intended to vandalize and not contribute to anything positive, such as this edit right here: https://rottenwebsites.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Reddit&oldid=31040

All The Tropes - spam flood and request for Checkuser
I have just had to change user rights on All The Tropes so that non-Confirmed users cannot create new pages. This is because we have received more spam in the form of new pages in the last 24 hours than we received in any form for the two weeks preceding.

There has also been an excessive number of new accounts created on All The Tropes in the last two weeks, compared to the number of accounts that are usually created on the wiki in comparable timeframes. At a rough guess, there have been anywhere from 10 to 20 times as many accounts being created so far in December as there were in all of October.

We request Checkuser on all new accounts created in the last two weeks at All The Tropes. Since it is extremely rare for anyone on this wiki to have more than one account (and the second account would be for a bot and have the appropriate rights), anyone with more than three accounts may safely be assumed to be a spammer. Special:Log/newusers.

--Robkelk (talk) 20:50, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I can lock a bunch of the spambots, but would prefer to leave the CheckUser portion of the request to or, if that's alright, mainly because either of them are more experienced and will be faster at it. In the meantime, have you thought of enabling Moderation, which allows local administrators and any moderators to "approve" all "good" edits (i.e., those of non-autoconfirmed users)? It's one of the most effective spam prevention tools. Dmehus (talk) 21:07, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * As an FYI, I suggested for to bring it to the Stewards Noticeboard, just so you know. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 21:09, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, we don't have enough moderators to be able to keep up if we activate Moderation.
 * Also, since I changed the settings so that non-Confirmed users cannot create pages, we've been getting new accounts created at a rate of one every five minutes (when it's usually closer to one every six hours). I'm about to disable new user creation on All The Tropes just so we can catch our breaths and deal with the fallout of what's already happened.--Robkelk (talk) 21:15, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Confirmed spambots, all caught in the last hour:
 * Snakefowl42
 * Choi08molloy
 * Greecefreeze6
 * Floyd82mackinnon
 * Welchmcclure6
 * Greenbergenemark54
 * Amounttoe70
 * I don't know how many other new accounts are spambots, since I disabled new users' ability to create new pages. --Robkelk (talk) 21:26, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Sure, we can look into those spambots specifically. I'm just going through your AbuseLog and locking the spambots from the past two months that have been flooding your wiki's abuse logs. Regarding the Moderation extension, what I was suggesting is you could basically grant the  group to anyone you'd trust with   or even , really, to assist administrators in reviewing the queue. Something to think about, perhaps? Disabling new account creation on the wiki could be a good temporary measure, yes. Dmehus (talk) 21:34, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I've ✅ on  from the abuse logs going back to 27 September 2020. I will take a look at the spambot page creations going back the past couple of weeks or so, and, ideally, have checked to see of NDKilla or Void are available to see if we can investigate the spambots and effect some additional rangeblocks to prevent, or slow, spambot account creation. Please do consider creating a local   group that could be granted to your wiki's more trusted contributors, as I think your community would likely support such a group in a local discussion on your forums, perhaps. Finally, if you would authorize it, I can ping stewards and Global Sysops to this thread to check your wiki at least once daily and revert any blatant spam user page creations, regardless of the length of time it's been waiting for local administrators to action, as we would likely be able to assist in this regard. You would, of course, specify the duration of this local authorization. Dmehus (talk) 22:37, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Wow, 141 accounts? That's incredible. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 22:46, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the help. I've asked the other Bureaucrats and Administrators whether they want to institute Moderation; I expect to have a consensus on the matter by early next week. As for having Stewards and Global Sysops look in on the wiki, there might not be too much to look at while we have new account creation disabled... I'll let you know about this at the same time that we have a consensus to report on Moderation. --Robkelk (talk) 22:51, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * We have activated the Moderation extension, and given moderation rights to rollbackers and administrators. We've also re-activated account creation (although we've had two accounts created within two minutes of each other, both within ten minutes of reactivating account creation, so we're still on the spammers' radar., we'll take you up on the offer of having Stewards and Global Syops look in on the wiki regularly for the next 30 days, please. --Robkelk (talk) 17:41, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

I've detected spam on the Permanent Future Lab Wiki
Someone needs to remove all those spam articles as I have been marking them all for deletion, and there's no active local administrator even monitoring it at all. None of the articles they are making has anything to do with what the wiki is all about. Some of them are about hookups, toilets, and some of them have to do with irrelevant topics that has nothing to do with the scope of that wiki itself. What do you guys think of what should happen to the users who has been making articles with spammy links? All I know is that they are currently being deleted by at the moment, but shouldn't they be locked as well? They are clearly here to promote or mass advertise by spamming links to external sites. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 16:37, 12 December 2020 (UTC)


 * It appears that the Permanent Future Lab Wiki is going through the same issues with spam that All The Tropes is going through. --Robkelk (talk) 17:56, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Same thing is occurring here too. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 18:01, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi, for resume the situtation so far:
 * Dmehus has deleted pages and locked accounts who was spam on, and he had changed the permission to edit main namespace to autoconfirmed (he left a message to the bureaucrat for notify this action), so we can say that wiki is now ✅.
 * Also, he do the same with  but for now, they have not changed the permission (pray that a local sysop/bureaucrat will come one day or not), but for now, we continue to monitor and delete/lock spam accounts, waiting for local sysop/bureaucrat or steward action.
 * HeartsDo (Talk / Global / Wiki Creator) 12:27, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I am aware of that, since all the spambots are being ✅ even as we speak. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 12:33, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * For the end of this spam apocalypse: Dmehus has changed permission to edit main namespace to autoconfirmed and left a message to the most recently active bureaucrat on  and   (a other wiki who has been spammed).
 * For now, we can say this is ✅! HeartsDo (Talk / Global / Wiki Creator) 18:07, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * PS: I will continue to monitor the feed on IRC for ensure that not a other wiki is touched.

Local Election Assessment Request for batmanwiki
Hello, could a Steward please assess the local admin election on batmanwiki and grant rights to the winning candidate? Thank you very much. R4356th (talk) 19:21, 12 December 2020 (UTC)


 * I forgot to link the page, sorry. This is the page- mh:batman:Project:Admin Election. R4356th (talk) 08:16, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Apologies for the slight delay in replying, and I appreciate you linking directly to the local election request. Your local election request ✅ to me. While the sole bureaucrat,, is not recently active on the wiki, so indeed this falls within Stewards' purview to assess the election in the absence of a locally active bureaucrat. However, as DuchessTheSponge does maintain a high number of wikis, is active elsewhere globally, and is also somewhat active on Meta Wiki, I've gone ahead and pinged them to this request, as a non-precedent setting courtesy to them to assess your local election request on Batmanpedia (which seems to be one of their wikis on which they're much less active anyway, generally). If they do not respond to your election request by 21 December 2020 at 00:01 UTC, then I will go ahead and both assess and effect the outcome of said election. Additionally, in case you weren't already aware, while technically possible to remove the  bit in Special:ManageWiki on local wikis, preference formed from prior global conventions and practices is to attend Stewards' noticeboard for any bureaucrat removal requests, where you would link to any community adopted policies on rights' removals. It's not directly related to your election request, of course, but since it was potentially relevant, thought it helpful to point out. Dmehus (talk) 00:41, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Okay, great. Thank you very much though I do not get why you thought I would want to remove 's rights unless it really became necessary like their account getting compromised (only an example) in which case Stewards should lock the account and Sysadmins should work on getting access back to them. :) R4356th (talk) 09:46, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Oh, no, I didn't think that you would likely want to have any existing bureaucrats (such as ) removed at all, but in past recent local election assessments, there's been a follow on request to remove inactive bureaucrat(s), so I just wanted to make you aware of what is essentially a non-codified convention or practice not having this done locally, so as to ensure that the local wiki's consensus with respect to community-adopted policies is respected. At any rate, in this case, it doesn't seem like there would be any need to remove any bureaucrats or administrators as both are at least globally active in some way&mdash;this is just about adding an additional bureaucrat on an otherwise dormant wiki to help build out the wiki's content in a robust way. Dmehus (talk) 15:53, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I see. Thank you. R4356th (talk) 21:03, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Can I reopen the Toxic Fandoms & Hatedoms Wiki?
I want to reopen the Toxic Fandoms & Hatedoms Wiki, but for some reason it won't let me. Any help here? Link to the wiki: https://toxicfandomsandhatedoms.miraheze.org/wiki/Toxic_Fandoms_%26_Hatedoms_Wiki Slater2001 (talk) 14:48, 13 December 2020 (UTC)


 * That wiki was closed by Stewards due to Code of Conduct and Content Policy violations. Please read this for more information. Additionally, you must be a bureaucrat to be able to reopen wikis. R4356th (talk) 14:57, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * A minor point to add to what articulated above already is that in this case, because the wiki was also locked, a steward is required to unlock the wiki, which isn't going to happen local administrators and bureaucrats repeatedly failed to heed warnings of global policies by global functionaries. So, at this point, it is just a matter of Dormancy Policy taking care of the wiki, with deletion expected some time in or around February 2021. Dmehus (talk) 15:12, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Same thing with the Horrible Vyonders Wiki, to add to the topic of the Code of Conduct and the Dormancy Policy. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 19:29, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

awesome subreddits wiki deletion request
hey there. could somebody please delete the awesome subreddits wiki? I tried to close it a few months ago, but for some reason it reopened without anyone doing anything. I've left my reasoning for why I want the wiki deleted and archived all of the pages on it, so I'd appreciate it if the wiki was shut down. thanks! -Luigifan53 22:08, 14 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Hello, you can go here and check "Closed" by yourself. You seem to have checked both "Closed" and "Inactive" before according to the ManageWiki log on your wiki, which probably caused your wiki not to be closed. R4356th (talk) 22:22, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * He knew that already he's now requesting it to be immediately deleted and not a six-month wait even though he closed it months ago which isn't fair. If this happened to me then I'd want it deleted quickly since time was already wasted on a glitch. Waldo (talk) 23:38, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Could you come over here and consider acting? Waldo (talk) 23:43, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 * There doesn't seem to be a technical issue that caused your wiki to be reopened, other than if there is a bug whereby the local bureaucrat selects "inactive" in addition to "closed" when manually closing a wiki. In any case, I don't see a compelling reason here to override Dormancy Policy, so, while I would've preferred you make this change, I have gone ahead and closed and made private this wiki per this request, mainly because I wanted to see if this wiki would be properly closed. Note that you do not need to wait the full 180 days for the wiki to be eligible for deletion. As I understand it, because the wiki was manually closed, it essentially skips the inactive state and closes straight to the closed state, so it should be eligible for deletion in about 135 days from now. Note that there is no timeframe after a wiki is eligible for deletion and the time it is actually deleted by system administrators' maintenance script. Dmehus (talk) 00:12, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Then why does the closed notice state "If this wiki is not adopted within 6 months it may be deleted."? If it will be deleted four months after it is closed then it shouldn't say that. Waldo (talk) 01:29, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree that that part of the notice is a bit confusing, but since we use only one standardized notice for manually or normally closed wikis, it's a bit of a challenge to try and alter the messaging without it being confusing. Policy is six months from the time the wiki was last active, essentially. Making one edit, deleting one page, or assigning a user group to a user once every 44 days is enough to keep the wiki from going inactive. I can try and see if we can tweak the closure message, generally speaking, of course, as it could be worded a little more clearly, I feel, but as to having different messages, I suspect that won't be easily doable. Hope that both helps and clarifies. Dmehus (talk) 01:40, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

interwiki admin request for mrjaroslavikwiki
Hello, I requesting interwiki-admin permission for me on my wiki. I want add a bunch of prefixes and don't want to bother steward or interwiki admin with it, also check this. I was thinking about it and if its not problem, you can make me a interwiki admin permanently.--MrJaroslavik (talk) 16:35, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Per the discussion in  on Discord and looking at Special:ListUsers on your wiki, it's clear you're the only contributing user to your personal wiki. Officially, there's supposed to be a local election, which, following global conventions for such things in absence of local wiki election rules, would typically see an election remain open for between 3-7 calendar days at minimum. You've certainly created a local election page, which is good. However, similar to 's local interwiki administrator request for , it does seem to be a bit too much bureaucracy for the sake of bureaucracy to have to wait a few days for a request that would almost certainly be closed as successful anyway. So, this is ✅. Dmehus (talk) 17:34, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

Dormancy exemption for my private wiki
Hello, I would like to request a dormancy exemption for my personal wiki. I do not edit as frequently as I should, but I would really hate to lose all my work because of not being able to get to it in time. In addition, it is a private wiki after all. Hypercane (  talk ) 08:33, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your request for a Dormancy Policy exemption, which I am pleased to say that I have now ✅. I do apologize for the delay in replying, as it was unintentional; however, a combination of similar exemption requests ahead of you in the queue and a locust of spambots swarming several customer wikis precluded me from responding to and assessing your exemption request sooner. While there is no codified policy or convention in terms of a set minimum number of content pages wikis should have, a rough estimate is that it should be at least 40-60 pages. In reviewing your wiki, it seems as though it was about eight (8) content pages in your wiki's main and project namespaces. That is, admittedly, quite light content wise. However, you are quite inactive, and, as you say, your wiki, which is also a private wiki, is infrequently edited. So, on that basis, there is a definite need for an exemption. My preference would've been to invite you to post a notice to Stewards on your wiki's Main Page stating that Stewards are empowered and authorized to reopen your wiki in the event they stumble across it and notice it marked as either (a) inactive or (b) closed. (And, the granting of this exemption does not preclude you from still doing that, if you wish.) However, because you are such a long-time, trusted, and friendly member of the Miraheze global community, who was previously fairly active on Meta Wiki but is otherwise less active on Miraheze mainly for personal reasons, and after consulting with, who, in a sense, is sort of a de facto Clerk to the Stewards given his longevity with the project, I have decided instead to ✅ you a time-limited exemption of twelve (12) months from today to Dormancy Policy for the the above reason(s). This should give you additional time to add additional qualifying content to your wiki and either (a) reapply for an indefinite, though not permanent, exemption to the policy or (b) more frequently edit your wiki, thus no longer requiring an exemption. Hope that helps. Dmehus (talk) 23:02, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

A vandal needs a global IP ban
A troll going by the alias Ihatecoons69, previously Trannyanalsecks tried to upload a picture of someone shitting (Basically, a shock image like the ones you find on Rotten.com and Encyclopedia Dramatica) and they attempted to make offensive articles that I promptly declined through Special:Moderation. It is the second time he comes to my website and other Miraheze sites and I would like that someone deals with that problematic behavior firmly. MarioSuperstar77 (talk) 18:51, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I don't feel this requires a steward's attention. The first user has not contributed to your Trollpedia wiki, and only the second user has. So, I don't feel an IP block is needed at this point. At any rate, I'm not seeing enough similarity in the user's contributions to warrant a user investigation. Please monitor it, and report subsequent occurrences with substantially similar behavioural evidence here. Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 19:02, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Except that they did contribute to my wiki, I just refused their edits through special:moderation, as stated earlier. The user might actually be dangerous since they bypassed the moderation check the first time they went onto my wiki (They did not have the automoderated right either).

 * Following further behavioural evidence being submitted, and upon closer examination, the investigation of abuse has been ✅, so this should be ✅ now. Thanks for your report.

Request for a Dormancy Policy exemption for my wiki, obs.miraheze.org
Hello! I'd like to request a Dormancy Policy exemption for my wiki, obs.miraheze.org. The wiki is for a biennial survey by our organization so we make many edits on the indicators and provide updated guidance and methodology discussion notes for new staff in the spring of odd years (2019, 2021, 2023, etc.). The rest of the year and the following "even" year, staff refer to the wiki but there are not often edits made to the wiki. Would you be able to exempt this wiki from the Dormancy Policy, given that it is used frequently but regularly edited every other year? This has been a fantastic resource for my team so I worry that it may get lost in the event one of our staff moves and someone forgets to update the wiki in an even year. Thanks for considering! Cwong (talk) 18:53, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your request. Please note that since you apparently inadvertently edited while logged out, I have redacted otherwise personally identifying characteristics from your signature above. Regarding your request for a Dormancy Policy exemption, this is ✅ as a private documentation, coordination, and discussion wiki for the organization so described and for the purpose so previously articulated, as there is a clear need in that your wiki is edited by few (perhaps only one) user(s) and is edited rather infrequently. In terms of the minimum page requirements, this requirement is easily exceeded, in my view. Please note this is an indefinite, not a permanent, exemption, and should your wiki no longer require an exemption to the policy, please do let us know. Finally, as a procedural matter, please feel free to replace  with your registered Miraheze username. Thank you. Dmehus (talk) 19:38, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

Request for an exemption from the Dormancy Policy for Kearney Sisters Wiki
The reason: Content on the wiki is read by people as a historical resource and may not be modified for extended periods of time.

Time of exemption: infinite More details: Historical/family/genealogical resource private wiki for archival purposes meant to be preserved over the long term, with frequent periods of semi-regular or irregular editing. --Posted on behalf of Rodrigotorres (talk) by Dmehus (talk), 21:33, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you both for your request, originally received via e-mail, and for your allowing me to post this publicly synthesized version of this request. Regarding your request for a Dormancy Policy exemption for your wiki, though your wiki is a bit content light, with roughly forty (40) content pages and about half (20) of which have been filled in, this is nonetheless ✅ as a historical family genealogical resource private wiki for archival purposes meant to be preserved over the long term, and, in particular, because of the demonstrated need with frequent periods of semi-regular or irregular editing. Additionally, it's clear to me this wiki is a work in progress and additional content will be created and filled in over the medium- and long-term. Please note this is an indefinite, not a permanent, exemption, and should your wiki no longer require an exemption to the policy, please do let us know. Thank you.

I would also ask you, in your capacity as local   to revert Danner's retaliatory block of  on   as that, too, also contravenes the Code of Conduct. It would've been inappropriate for Zppix to block Danner in the midst of a disagreement at User talk:Zppix, and it was inappropriate for Danner to block Zppix on a wiki to which Zppix had never contributed, with block reasons that violate the Code of Conduct and which appear to be against your local wiki's consensus. Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 21:14, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Hello, Sorry for such a late reply so We do have a reason towards the block and the block was appropriate now to discuss the block it was made within our wiki policies within our Policies the reason for it was he was saying some disgusting things and as you can apart of our policies server action does carry over as I feel his behavior was pedophile like in my own opinion I put that as the reason, he was trolling and saying nasty things in our server however thanks for being this up I decided to reverse the block and I do not feel it breaks code of conduct any anyway as it's within our policies Cocopuff2018 (talk) 21:39, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for reversing the block. Any non-reliability sourced allegation for a charged allegation such as that would be considered a Code of Conduct violation, absolutely. I would also recommend that you revision delete the original block summary on, too. If Hookuai posted disgusting imagery on your wiki and that was against your wiki's policies, then you should've just said something like, "posting disgusting imagery and server disruption." That being said, I don't think this needs anything more than a note of caution to you and to  here. It looks like  has reverted Danner's block. So, this seems to be ✅ with the support of Stewards, which is the ideal outcome in all such circumstances. Dmehus (talk) 22:05, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

mediocretvshowepisodes wiki
Hello, on mediocretvshowepisodes Wiki Danner blocked me and zppix for no reason and I feel both block's are not warrant enough to be blocked for both me and and Danner has done this multiple times to Zppix, and now that I am blocked for no reason I am now asking stewards to please help out a little I have done nothing wrong to warrant a false block like this and Zppix is only blocked because Danny cannot accept things for the way they are please help, and also  has even reversed the block for zppix and Danner keeps reblocking for no reason and I am blocked for no reason, by any chance we can do a demote danner?

he also also make comment's on the block reason about Doug as you can see on the log. Cocopuff2018 (talk) 18:02, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for this report, which is indeed a valid report worthy of Stewards' attention. I do see a potential Code of Conduct issue, mainly relating to harassment both in terms of the block reason and the validity of the block, which appears to be have been made in contravention of multiple provisions of the wiki's local policies. I would also note the policies were only created without a consensus-based discussion of other members in the community, so I find it problematic in that respect, too. I've consulted with, a Global Sysop, on this so far, and he concurred with me this indeed something Stewards will have to review in more detail, though, hopefully, this can be resolved locally without any Steward mediation as that would be the ideal resolution.

Thank you Honestly I see no effort by the admin to Handle the issue and feel in my own opinion it's time Stewards step in, So my Question is how are we. Gonna handle this Issue? I do not think we should allow Danner to remain with user rights per Multiple Disregard towards code of conduct ? Cocopuff2018 (talk) 05:57, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

Request for Changing for r4356thwiki
Hello, could you please change  for r4356thwiki to  ? It is a private wiki and I do not want search engines to index the pages. Thank you very much. R4356th (talk) 18:20, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * ✅, though I would note that since this a private wiki, technically, search engines wouldn't have been able to index anything more than your wiki's public Main Page. That being said, there's no reason not to either. Dmehus (talk) 18:32, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much. R4356th (talk) 18:50, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
 * ✅. Dmehus (talk) 18:53, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
