A week old CheckUser request of mine
Since the stewards ask others to alert them if sockpuppeteers return on the same site, I have a list, both the main topic and reply, of them abusing accounts on the site, some of them were previously IP banned on the AVID Wiki. Of course, there are more sockpuppet accounts on the wiki ever since I last made that request. I am asking you in particular due to your locking of 09limbua's latest sock, which I appreciate your work, and I am looking to see if you check to see if the listed sockpuppet accounts are indeed alt accounts of a sockpuppeteer, perhaps an IP locking on some who had long term abuse on the AVID Wiki. Thank you for your cooperation. Camenati (talk) 16:19, 4 October 2022 (UTC)


 * I will look into the SN thread and see what I can do. I'd mention though that 09limbua wasn't blocked as part of a wider investigation, they were simply blocked due to the fact that they disrupted multiple wikis and to prevent that behavior from continuing.

I think I get it
I think "fair use" runs upon the principles of "does it contribute to profit loss," so would result in more copyrighted works being used in that regardless.

For "fair dealing" I think it's "don't use more of copyrighted content than is necessary" -- for instance, use only snippets of a book if using an excerpt as a source for an article being written as the rest of the page may not be relevant to the excerpt. Because of this I decided to be safe and delete some full page images of a book on one of the wikis.

Was this the correct course of action? Bawitdaba (talk) 14:04, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
 * This isn't a legal opinion but essentially that's how I understand it. So if you want to, for example, critique a part of a movie you can't just upload the entire movie for that. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 06:55, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
 * yeah, and not to mention uploading entire movies would take up an enormous amount of server space. Bawitdaba (talk) 12:07, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
 * A 2-hour 1080p Full HD movie would take up to 10 GB of server space. Silicona (talk) 18:52, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
 * oof yeah we don't want that Bawitdaba (talk) 21:17, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

Miraheze Annual Survey 2022
Hi Reception123

I participated in the Annual Survey. Where would I find the survey if I wanted to read the points again? Now that it is closed, I am hoping the material is still accessible. Hope you can help. Thank you.

 * I don't quite see how the Content Policy reform RfC is related to the survey?
