Stewards' noticeboard

Username usurpation request
Hey, could I usurp the username "Elli" (is my username on WMF Wikis and some others). The user "Elli" here has made zero edits since their account was registered on any wiki. Thanks! 0xElli (talk) 10:10, 11 March 2021 (UTC)


 * 0xElli Looking at the global accounts for the user in question, it looks like no Meta or Loginwiki accounts were created; however, the account is a global account. Nevertheless, our usual practice is for the requesting user to post a message on the user in question's Meta user talk page, so I will reach out to a system administrator, likely Reception123, to see if he can run a maintenance script that will attach Elli's account to Meta wiki so you can post your message. After a period of typically 2-4 weeks time, you would just return to stewards' noticeboard, replying to this thread or linking to the archive thread and starting a new thread if it's already been archived, so that a Steward can process your request. Hope that helps. Dmehus (talk) 14:41, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Please ping me when I can leave them the message, then I'll do that and check back here in a few weeks. 0xElli (talk) 09:18, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
 * 0xElli You can now leave a message on Elli's Meta user talk page. Referenced Phabricator ticket #T6951. Dmehus (talk) 16:56, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Left a comment at their talk. Thanks for your help! 0xElli (talk) 07:18, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
 * No problem. Dmehus (talk) 07:19, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Since I haven't gotten a reply back, could the usurpation take place now? Thanks. 0xElli (talk) 20:03, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
 * 0xElli, sure, yeah, I think that's fine. I'll start the rename requests later tonight or tomorrow. Dmehus (talk) 20:04, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

Update on Larryding
After some thorough investigation, I have found that Larryding has been abusing multiple accounts, because four total users have been accused of being Larryding sockpuppets. https://terribletvshows.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=&user=Masterblaster&page=&wpdate=&tagfilter=&wpfilters%5B0%5D=comments&wpfilters%5B1%5D=newusers&mobileaction=toggle_view_desktop
 * Call of duty lord is a confirmed sockpuppet of Larryding, as I showed you in the above thread. Also, he used that account to message another user, SuperStreetKombat, in defense of Larryding: https://crappygames.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Special:UserBoard&user=SuperStreetKombat&conv=Call+of+duty+lord. He also left a comment in defense of Larryding. That does seem to be all that sockpuppet did apart from the account confirmation.
 * Special:Contributions/Countdieselbrain is another suspected sockpuppet who hasn’t done much either except for a few comments in defense of Larryding.
 * Special:Contributions/Masterblaster, another suspected sockpuppet has done more, as can be seen by his comments logs on Awful Movies Wiki and Terrible TV Shows Wiki, where he exhibits behavior similar to Larryding: https://awfulmovies.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=&user=Masterblaster&page=&wpdate=&tagfilter=&wpfilters%5B0%5D=comments&wpfilters%5B1%5D=newusers&mobileaction=toggle_view_desktop
 * Special:Contributions/Popthesmoke03 is a more recently discovered suspected sockpuppet of Larryding. This is the thread given in the link to his block on Crappy Games Wiki which is deleted so I have no way to see it, but from the deletion description it seems like he either admitted to being a sockpuppet in the thread or displayed similar behavior: https://crappygames.miraheze.org/wiki/Topic:W5f0iwckkbw7xkvc

I think you should run a CheckUser on these accounts, as this is proof that he is ban evading. Blubabluba9990 (talk) 23:05, 20 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Blubabluba9990 What local policies did Larryding violate that led to their being blocked on each wiki? Can you also link to a warning, whether on a talk page (ideal) or in an edit summary (somewhat less than ideal), again on each wiki, where the user was warned about contravening said policy prior to being locally blocked? Without that, I don't feel a lock would be appropriate given these circumstances, and you should instead properly warn and Larryding on exactly which policies they were violating and to appeal their local blocks via their user talk pages, which should be left open. Dmehus (talk) 23:38, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
 * There haven’t been any warnings, at least not to my knowledge.
 * I could try to talk to Larryding here about it. I am not an admin on any of those wikis so I am not in any position to give warnings though.
 * He is blocked as well as his suspected socks on those wikis, though he didn’t violate a policy on each wiki.
 * They also do not have talk page privileges on any wikis. Blubabluba9990 (talk) 23:46, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
 * If you should contact anyone about giving Larryding a warning, it would be an admin, preferably DecidiousWater234 since he is an admin on all of those wikis, at least I think so. Blubabluba9990 (talk) 23:47, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Well it looks like I was right, he was abusing multiple accounts and the accounts are now globally locked so case closed. Blubabluba9990 (talk) 23:44, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

Request for Dormancy Exemption
I would like for my wikis, The Fowl House Wiki and The Wow House Wiki, to be exempt from inactivity/dormancy because it seems like I am the only person editing on the wikis, and there is a decent amount of information and it doesn’t really need to be actively updated, and in case I don’t go back there for a while for various reasons. I am the person who requested both wikis. I may even make them private soon if more people don’t start to edit there. Blubabluba9990 (talk) 21:50, 24 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Blubabluba9990 Thank you for requesting an exemption to Dormancy Policy. I've reviewed the entirety of both wikis and, yes, while you are one of the few contributors to the wiki, there's not really that much content on the wiki. In each wiki's  namespace, there's about 20 pages on the one wiki and 30 pages on the other wiki; however, all pages generally consist of only a single sentence and the tag from the Comments extension, so it really doesn't meet yet meet the second criterion in our assessment process. The reason for this second criterion is that many wikis get requested and created, but then get later abandoned with little, or, in some cases, no content that is made to be read by people. What I would instead recommend to you is to make regular dump backups of each wiki in Special:DataDump, and set yourself a reminder to make at least one edit or log action on each wiki every 44 days. Even if your wiki did go inactive, you'd still have a further two weeks before it was closed, and after that, a further four months or more before it was marked as deleted in accordance with Dormancy Policy. During that time, both you can reopen it at any time, and anyone could also request to adopt the wikis if they felt they useful at requests for adoption, and the wikis would be reopened by a Steward. So, I'm going to mark this as ❌, at least not yet. For an example wiki of what we look for, you might look at   as just one example. Dmehus (talk) 00:27, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Ok. I can try to contribute to it more. I would try and get more editors but everyone always gets angry with wiki advertising. Blubabluba9990 (talk) 00:39, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I'd be careful about advertising your wiki on local wikis. What you might consider is instead consider engaging with local bureaucrats on similar wikis and see if you might enter into a partnership with their wiki in which your partnered wikis would agree to create two-way shared sitenotices on each wiki. Don't make it about asking for help on your wiki; rather, make it about a partnership between your wikis, if that makes sense. Dmehus (talk) 00:42, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Ok. Blubabluba9990 (talk) 19:35, 26 March 2021 (UTC)

There's an LTA on who's been disruptively vandalizing pages on that wiki.
ABsjddhsf has been causing disruption on the Worldpedia Wiki, in which I've had to tirelessly revert their vandalism edits as they have been disruptively making redirects to nonsensical pages named "This wiki is closed", which is absolutely baloney, as that wiki has been more active as seen on the Recent Changes page. Should there be a lock made against this user for disrupting that specific wiki? There's plenty of evidence of this as listed here:
 * https://worldpedia.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=%E6%AD%A4%E7%B6%AD%E5%9F%BA%E5%B7%B2%E9%97%9C%E9%96%89_(This_Wiki_is_closed)&oldid=15413
 * https://worldpedia.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=%E4%B8%96%E7%95%8C%E5%A4%A7%E5%85%B8:%E9%A6%96%E9%A0%81&oldid=15414
 * https://worldpedia.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=%E4%B8%96%E7%95%8C%E5%A4%A7%E5%85%B8:%E9%A6%96%E9%A0%81&oldid=15415
 * https://worldpedia.miraheze.org/w/index.php?title=%E4%B8%96%E7%95%8C%E5%A4%A7%E5%85%B8:%E7%A4%BE%E7%BE%A4%E5%85%A5%E5%8F%A3&oldid=15422

If that's not enough, have a look at this user's edits on that wiki. Please feel free to take any action if necessary. :) DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 13:37, 25 March 2021 (UTC)


 * DarkMatterMan4500 I'm not sure how you've concluded the user is LTA, but I've ✅ them as a disruptive, vandalism only account. Dmehus (talk) 13:42, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * That's kind of easy. The way they made their edits to me, it seems like the user has used this service sometime before. I also found that 2 IP users caused the exact same disruption, but weren't too major. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 13:45, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * DarkMatterMan4500 This wasn't specific vandalism, though, to any other users or anonymous users, and you've not identified those users in your report, so this just seems like random text replacement, redirect, and page blanking vandalism. Dmehus (talk) 13:49, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I apologize if it wasn't much help, but  and   are the ones I'm referring to. I redacted the IPs for this report out of respect of the Privacy Policy, but should they be globally blocked at this time? DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 13:55, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * DarkMatterMan4500 Thank you. That's helpful and illustrates the vandalism only account likely engaged in logged in and logged out vandalism. However, that doesn't indicate the user is an LTA. An LTA, to me anyone, would be a person who repeatedly creates many alternate accounts and engages in persistent disruption and vandalism across multiple wikis over a prolonged time period. I've soft blocked the first IP's globally per no open proxies policy, and will locally soft block the second's range as vandalism. Additionally, there's no need to redact the IPs of either (a) open proxies or (b) anonymous IP vandals. Dmehus (talk) 14:03, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Okay. Thanks anyway. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 14:05, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Make Wiki immune to inactivity
The Shoemaker ImmunoSystems wiki is infrequently updated, but is referenced frequently as part of an academic lab at the University of Pittsburgh. Would it be possible to make this wiki immune to the 60-day inactivity closures? The wiki is located at https://immunosystems.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page. Thank you! JJW102 (talk) 15:49, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * JJW102 Though your wiki is a bit light on the content part of our exemption to Dormancy Policy assessment process, particularly in  namespace, your wiki has research in its   namespace that are not necessarily publicly available elsewhere and would be potentially detrimental if lost. In terms of need, indeed only you and several other other users edit this wiki fairly infrequently, so I'm going to ✅ this exemption request indefinitely as an academic research notes wiki used as a resource by real people that is infrequently edited. Please note, though, that this exemption request grant is indefinite, not permanent, so please try and add a number of additional content pages over the next year should your exemption request be reevaluated by Stewards at some point after that. Additionally, should you no longer need an exemption, please do advise us of this via this noticeboard. Dmehus (talk) 16:00, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Default Permissions & Default Groups restore
Hello Can be permissions & groups restored to default on https://wiki.aridia.space/

Or restore wiki to default starting template, i have no data yet so nothing to lose

Im new to wiki, was checked features and deleted it for some reason Thank you Aridiaspace (talk) 19:24, 25 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Aridiaspace I've ✅ your inadvertently removed  rights per this request. This will allow you to manually correct your wiki's permissions to the prescribed defaults. Alternatively, if you prefer to have your wiki's permissions reset to the default, you may file a Phabricator task for system administrators to do this. Dmehus (talk) 19:32, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Vector.css and Common.css not loading
For some reason, on my wiki, both the |Vector.css and the |Common.css MediaWiki pages have stopped loading. I know this was recent because yesterday it was working just fine. Snowie (talk) 22:43, 25 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Snowie Do you mean the CSS pages will not load at all? If so, can you please file a Phabricator task for system administrators to investigate? Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 22:47, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, the CSS pages do not load, and I will make a Phabricator task. Snowie (talk) 22:59, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks. That's strange. I'm not certain whether it's related to a problem with the pages not loading (necessitating system administrators to look into it) or a problem with the code in your CSS pages (something you can ask about at community noticeboard and hopefully someone can help you out). Worse case, system administrators will investigate it, and refer you to community noticeboard. Dmehus (talk) 23:02, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Apologies, they appear to be working now, not sure why it wasn't loading at first. Snowie (talk) 23:01, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Snowie Ah, that's great. Sounds like it was a temporary issue related to the server load. Dmehus (talk) 23:03, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Delete my wiki please... (and I'm leaving)
here it is

It's nothing more than I mess that I've lost interest in; I made it in July 2018 and have moved on to other stuff now. However, although I actually think 2018 was the best year of my life, I think that this wiki might just have to go for a variety of reasons:


 * 1) copyright violations (mostly from South Park Archives, Danny Phantom Wiki, and here),
 * 2) it was created as a fork for myself as I was a vandal on SPA and wikia.com (having altercations over their customization) when my own wiki there ("everything you need to know about science wiki"; actually not a wiki since I editprotected all the mainspace pages) was closed; I was even trying to force my religion through multiple alter-egos on SPA's admins and FANDOM staff,
 * 3) lack of user activity (not even my friends in school are interested),
 * 4) it is extremely biased towards my (mostly unpopular) views (especially those gainst PBS Kids due to my vehemence against it),
 * 5) it needs to be constantly updated by me,
 * 6) true lack of educational value, reliability, and many inadequate sources,
 * 7) and I am a young-Earth creationist and thus feel obliged to promote creationism which is attacked by mainstream science.

I also feel as if I need to abstain from editing wikis due to my past behavior (and "activism") on what are pretty much the two largest wiki sites (actually I've already been blocked on one wiki here and this is another alter-ego account I've made).

You might remember that I made a martha speaks wiki around the same time I made that wiki that was merged into that one. When I began to hate MS I deleted all MS stuff there. I also made a Danny Phantom+Robert L. Forward wiki that's also been closed.

I am not motivated enough to fix all of these issues and just see the wiki as another burden on me. I'd like to let go of this "chore"; I can make this choice? Would someone please consider immediately deleting the wiki from your database? That would be very much appreciated.

This could also mean that I might leave Miraheze, after spending 3 years here, trying to run a wiki. Thank you very much for those 3 years of hospitality and El Elyon bless you and may you grow in Holiness.

Goodbye, Joey717 (talk) 03:45, 26 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Joey717 Please note I've procedurally moved this request from community noticeboard to Stewards' noticeboard. Though we prefer to have wikis closed and made private and deleted in accordance with Dormancy Policy, we do accept wiki deletion requests with valid reasons, which the above seems to me to be valid reasons. Additionally, I've looked through your wiki and, indeed, you have made approximately 98% of all contributions to the wiki, and you are the only recently active . So, I've ✅ this wiki per your request above. Dmehus (talk) 15:16, 26 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much. Elyon bless you and goodbye.
 * I have one last request: if you edit at SPA please go tell them (with my username and "JoeyPknowsalotaboutthat" attached) that:
 * I am sorry for my past behavior. I admit that it was actually not true Christian behavior. I will not touch your site again and will no longer force my religious views on you, although I remain Christian. I am actually a New Zealand citizen (born in Philippines), actually in 2004, and Nataliya, Danny Willson, Sasha, etc. were just completely made-up alter-egos and lies. I have stopped using them too. Enjoy your day.

Thank you very much. Joey717 (talk) 06:15, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

I wanted to my wiki get closed because yeah, I made it for my fictional universe but I think it is too early for making a wiki for it. So, here is my wiki;
I want to my wiki got erased because I feel uncomfortable about that, I made this wiki for my Fictional Universe but now it makes me uncomfortable and I want it to get closed. Here is the link; https://timeverse.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page Reaper Bruh Sans (talk) 14:56, 26 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I will not comment on this, but I will say that one signature is enough. In connection with this edit, I will remove two additional signatures that you apparently accidentally made. Thank you! --Anton (talk) 14:59, 26 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Reaper Bruh Sans Similar to the above wiki deletion request, as this is your personal fictional worldbuilding wiki, for which you've provided 100% of the content page contributions, I've marked the wiki for ✅, and it will be permanently expunged from the servers the next time Site Reliability Engineering runs the wiki deletion script (likely next month some time).

My account
I was wondering if you could delete my account, because I don't want to use Miraheze anymore, I want to move to another platform.-NintenDylan64 18:29, 26 March 2021 (UTC)
 * NintenDylan64 Thank you for your request, which I've procedurally moved to here as the noticeboard was not protected in any way, so an edit request was not required. While it's not technically possible to delete your account, we can either (a) rename your account to a randomized name and/or (b) lock your account. Please advise if either of those options are what you are looking for. Thank you. Dmehus (talk) 18:36, 26 March 2021 (UTC)

I want Toxic Fandoms and Hatedoms Wiki back
What happened to Toxic Fandoms and Hatedoms Wiki and how can I get it back? Shelley316 (talk) 01:07, 27 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Shelley316 Sorry, that wiki was closed in late September/early October 2020 due to systemic unresolved Content Policy issues and Code of Conduct violations. I see your account was only created in January 2021, well after the wiki in question was was closed, locked, and made private by Stewards. Do you happen to have a previous account and, if so, if you held  rights on the wiki at the time of closure, you could go into Special:DataDump (using your original account) and export an XML dump of your wiki and self-host it; however, it isn't able to be restored on Miraheze, sorry. Dmehus (talk) 01:28, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

CheckUser request
Recently there has been a lot of vandalism-only accounts with fairly simplistic names on our wikis, and I want to find out who's responsible for all of these accounts if they are in fact being created by one user. Here's some accounts that come in mind: Rocker Bell Cherry Fanta Knife Cartoons Cuphead Gary --DeciduousWater534 (talk) 18:02, 27 March 2021 (UTC)


 * DeciduousWater534 Rocker and Bell have already been ✅ as vandalism only accounts, but I feel the vandalism is too generic to assess as potentially related to some of the other listed users. Cherry and Fanta were already previously locked, and the contributions of Cuphead were indeed nearly identical to those users, so Cuphead has also been ✅. For Knife, Cartoons, and Gary, while the usernames are indeed somewhat similar in form, they haven't yet edited, so until we see some editing, I don't think further action is needed at this time. Please do advise if they edit on wikis where not blocked, especially if the vandalism is substantially similar to the other locked users in some way. Thanks. Dmehus (talk) 18:25, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
 * One user suspected that Radel1996 was behind those sockpuppet accounts, but that account is too stale for CU results. What do you think? DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 20:14, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

Requesting deletion of spambot accounts
Every day on sdiy.miraheze.org accounts are created by spambots. With various measures in place these accounts don't ever get used. Currently on the wiki there are 2,272 registered users but of these only 24 have done a legitimate edit. Please could the 2,248 dormant accounts be deleted? Rob Kam (talk) 19:39, 27 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Rob Kam We can't delete accounts. It's technically possible to merge and delete existing user accounts into other user accounts, but this is not commonly done for mainly technical reasons. Typically, we just lock spam only accounts. We could additionally hide them, potentially, as well. Have you also considered enabling the StopForumSpam extension on your wiki? It's supposedly fairly effective at stopping spambot account creations. Finally, you could also potentially consider removing the ability for anonymous users to create accounts account on your wiki, and post a note for them to create an account on Meta Wiki. Dmehus (talk) 19:50, 27 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Merge and delete is what I'm asking for. I can provide a text file of the names if that helps. These spurious users make an unnecessary mess of the wiki stats.


 * Spam itself is not an issue. The abuse filter extension already prevents the spambots very effectively. Locking spambot accounts is almost pointless with these used-one-time-only accounts. I'm the user who asked for StopForumSpam to be added to Miraheze in the first place - I'm unsure whether what difference it has made. Making account creation more intricate is an idea but I'm reluctant to add yet more hurdles in the way of anyone wanting to make constructive edits. --Rob Kam (talk) 00:40, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
 * There are several logistical issues with merging and deleting spam only accounts. Firstly, spam only accounts are not all created by the same only account farm, so it would logistically very challenging, if not impossible, depending on the age of the accounts, to confirm whether spam only accounts were indeed created by the spam only account farm. Secondarily, as the accounts are global, accounts are also attached, at minimum, to Meta and to Loginwiki, so it's not just your wiki where the accounts exist. Finally, it would be very messy. Thus, unless another Steward and a system administrator are willing to sign off on this, I'm going to say that this would not be possible, unfortunately. That's very neat that you are the user that requested the StopForumSpam extension, though. Dmehus (talk) 01:24, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
 * There is one other option that may be of interest to you, and this would involve you exporting XML, image, and ManageWiki settings dumps of your wiki in Special:DataDump (on your wiki). You would then request system administrators to delete, drop, and recreate your wiki as a fresh wiki with a Phabricator task. Once that's done, you would then create another Phabricator task to import those dumps you generated. This would repopulate your wiki as at the time of deletion, without the spam only accounts attached. The downside of this, though, is that while your and other users' contributions would still be locally assigned, they would not be reflected in your global edits in CentralAuth. As well, if any spam only accounts had made edits, their accounts would be re-added, but most of the spam only accounts would not be reattached to your wiki. Dmehus (talk) 01:31, 28 March 2021 (UTC)

Regarding a recent request for Global User Rename
Hello, I recently requested a global username for this account (using this account) via Special:GlobalRenameRequest, but I made a small mistake that I realize looking back to the username I requested. Could you please, instead of renaming this account to "TurtleWiki Bureaucrats, rename it to TurtleWiki Bureaucrat (without the "s" at the end)? Thank you, and sorry for the inconvenience. (Please ping my main account, Turtle84375, when replying to this) - Turtle84385 (talk) 20:04, 27 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Yes, I can take care of that tonight or tomorrow when I process the above request. Dmehus (talk) 20:06, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Great, thanks! Turtle84375 (talk) 20:07, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Dmehus Hi, I don't mean to be impatient or anything, but it's been a few days since your reply, so I just wanted to follow up with you on this rename request, since I see it hasn't happened yet. I understand that you are very busy, and there is no real rush for this rename, but this is just a friendly reminder. Thank you for all of your help here on Meta and globally! Turtle84375 (talk) 06:24, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Turtle84375 Apologies for the delay in the requested rename of Turtle84385 to TurtleWiki Bureaucrats, but this has now been ✅. Dmehus (talk) 00:00, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Ah... thank you, sorry to make you go through the trouble of doing this... but I believe I asked above if you could remove the "s"? Again, I apologize for not putting that in the original request, and I looking back at the edits you had to do, it looks like a lot of work to globally rename a user, but would you mind if the "s" could be removed? If you really don't feel like doing that very minor change through such a tedious process, I totally understand, it's not too important, but I would like it done if possible. Turtle84375 (talk) 02:31, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Turtle84375 Ah, yes, that's right; however, as there is is no way for me to modify an existing an global rename request, I would've had to use Special:GlobalRenameUser rather than action your open request in Special:GlobalRenameQueue. Actually, though, now that I think about it some more, since you did mention you plan to use TurtleWiki Bureaucrats as a role account for all bureaucrats, collectively, on TurtleWiki, the plural version does actually sound more grammatically correct. You could also potentially register a separate alternate account, without the s as well, if you wanted. Let me know if you do think the plural version does actually sound better, based on that analysis, if you might like to register a second singular version, or if you'd still prefer for it to be renamed again. Dmehus (talk) 06:35, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Dmehus Hm, now that you mention it, that does sound reasonable. I think I will keep it plural, in this case. Thanks for going through all of the trouble! Turtle84375 (talk) 06:49, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Turtle84375 Sounds good, and no problem. :) Dmehus (talk) 13:48, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

About my wiki
I requested for my wiki Rolling Sky English Wiki hours ago. User:Dmehus let me add some descriptions. But now nobody has replied to me. Is it because there is not anyone noticing it or it is still not good enough to create it? Zes M Young (talk) 03:42, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Zes M Young It was basically just the former rather than the latter. I've looked at your updated wiki request and, though still a bit vague, it was good enough to approve as essentially a foreign language player version of the gaming mod wiki . Thank you. Dmehus (talk) 03:50, 28 March 2021 (UTC)

I kicked myself out of my wiki...
So, funny story, I accidentally removed my ManageWiki rights on a wiki when I deleted a usergroup that I had replaced, but forgot to put myself into... could a kind steward please put me back into the "owner" usergroup on this wiki? Thank you! Turtle84375 (talk) 21:29, 28 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Turtle84375 ✅. Please remember that when you are changing around your user groups with the  user right, to always ensure you've added the new group with the   user right before deleting the old user group. Dmehus (talk) 21:52, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you, much appreciated. I wasn't paying attention, so I neglected to place myself in the "owner" usergroup before deleting "wiki_owner" (with that not-so-nice looking underscore), so that's entirely my fault. I will make sure to pay attention to that in the future. Turtle84375 (talk) 21:56, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Turtle84375 Not a problem at all. It happens, somewhat more frequently than you might expect. So, not to worry. :) Dmehus (talk) 21:58, 28 March 2021 (UTC)

About Radel1996:
Just like I reported to Dmehus last night, I have found out that he may have a connection to all those hooliganism-only/vandalism-only accounts that's been popping up under our radar over the span of 3 weeks as seen from this topic here. Doug had a look, so I think all the Stewards around here should look as well, not just Doug. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 23:56, 28 March 2021 (UTC)


 * DarkMatterMan4500 I haven't had a chance to have a look at it today; will try and look tomorrow. You did already report this on my user talk page and in, so this is effectively the third copy of this report. We're all volunteers, and will get to your report in due course. Dmehus (talk) 00:04, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Okay, sorry about that. With all due respect, I won't make anymore duplicate reports about it. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 00:14, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
 * No problem. It's better if the reports are just consolidated into one location. This is good now, though. Dmehus (talk) 00:20, 29 March 2021 (UTC)

There's a user making a bunch of gross and/or suggestive comments on a couple or more wikis.
Qualitypownder has been making all these disgusting comments, (in which I've had to remove) on both this wiki, and this wiki as well.

Issues with new user accounts
Hello Stewards of Miraheze!

I have new wiki users that registered their accounts in my Miraheze wiki (iceria.org) and are experiencing issues in getting their accounts activated to be able to post and edit articles. I even went ahead and changed their usergroups, even made them administrators! Still having the same issues, not having permissions to edit and participate in the wiki.

Screenshots of the errors are attached - looks like the user here is in a catch-22 where they can't fix their email issue because they don't have the rights... how can this be fixed on my end? Is this something I can address, and if so how?

ERROR 1: https://i.imgur.com/k8qKXcq.png

ERROR 2: https://i.imgur.com/oDniAJ5.png

Attached is a list of the three accounts that need to be confirmed are listed in "Capture1.PNG". It's the accounts User:Ardy and User:PrimodeAguilar. I created a second Ardy account (User:Ardy2) to test if it was a problem with the user or with the wiki. Ardy2 can be deleted.

USERS: https://i.imgur.com/0yFXeoM.png

Any help on this would be so appreciated. Thank you!!! Edgard (talk) 17:55, 29 March 2021 (UTC)


 * It looks like you've set  to , which provides an additional protection measure that those alternate accounts may not be able to override if they don't have confirmed e-mail addresses themselves as any   user right they may have by being in the correct user group will not matter. Dmehus (talk) 18:04, 29 March 2021 (UTC)

 * MarioMario456 That user has only made two or three comments on one wiki, as far as I can tell. We'd need to see linked diffs from both the suspected alternate and master accounts. that establish a similar behavioural pattern to Larryding Dmehus (talk) 16:02, 31 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Thank you for providing those links. Looking through Larryding's comments, I see a lot of editorial comments on certain pages whereas on Mahtabmunsur6 made only two comments referring to user as "Satan's baby child." This doesn't show a sufficient behavioural link between the two users to warrant a CheckUser investigation pursuant to user accounts policy. Please monitor the user and advise if they make further edits on other pages which are substantially similar to Larryding's edits. Dmehus (talk) 16:12, 31 March 2021 (UTC)

Global lock request for the following possible LTAs on.

After the first one was blocked for these edits on their contributions page, which apparently was suppressed by an admin for possible vandalism, the said user used an alt to evade that block. I don't know about you guys, but does this constitute a lock for the user since they're possibly abusing multiple accounts to evade blocks?

Changing the subdomain of a wiki
Hi, I have caused some confusion with my wiki requests 17477 and 17484, sorry for that. The former request was approved, the wiki has the subdomain stupipedia.

 * Hi, yes that is possible! Could you please create a request via Phabricator? Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 12:50, 1 April 2021 (UTC)

Can you please delete my Amazing Restaurants Wiki?
The reason why is because I don't need that wiki anymore as there's already a wiki called First Class Restaurants and Foods Wiki, which was made before mine was. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 20:20, 1 April 2021 (UTC)


 * DarkMatterMan4500 Though wikis will eventually and usually be deleted in accordance with Dormancy Policy, as your wiki above had only a single content page about McDonald's and since you were the only contributor to this wiki, I've ✅ it per your request.

Global lock for AldenCew
Spammer. Left me a spam message on Crappy Games Wiki. (I have since deleted it, but I can tell you, they did). MarioMario456 (talk) 20:20, 1 April 2021 (UTC)


 * ❌ as I can't find even a single edit or log action for the above-referenced user. If you can point me to a specific link, I'll revisit this, but as of now, I don't see any edits or log actions (deleted or live). Dmehus (talk) 20:31, 1 April 2021 (UTC)

Global lock for spammers

 * AldenCew
 * Jerodwew

Sent me spam messages in crappygameswiki. Proof:



MarioMario456 (talk) 11:47, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I discovered that these accounts were created in September 2019. Are they hacked accounts? Run CheckUser, globally block the IPs and lock all the accounts. MarioMario456 (talk) 11:53, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * MarioMario456 Thank you for the clarification. This is certainly a first for me, as I've never seen spam only accounts sending private user board messages to legitimate users. Those are definitely spammy, albeit quite bizarre, messages. They appear to have been sent recently based on the timestamps, but since there's no edit or log actions produced, I'm not certain whether technical data would be available in the CheckUser tool. It would for the login, provided the user accounts didn't stay logged in since they were created. Do you recall the full user board messages you received and whether they included links to external webpages? Dmehus (talk) 14:51, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, they contained external links. The accounts tried to use HTML instead of wikitext for the spam messages. MarioMario456 (talk) 15:46, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * MarioMario456 ❌ for CheckUser. Nevertheless, based on the above, I will ✅ them as clear (and sneaky) spam only accounts. Dmehus (talk) 17:20, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

Redirecting Special:CreateAccount to Login Wiki
As suggested by Dmehus above at Requesting deletion of spambot accounts. I need some help to change the account creation on sdiy.miraheze.org (and simpleelectronics.miraheze.org). How do I redirect e.g. Synth DIY Wiki Special:CreateAccount to Login Wiki Special:CreateAccount or to some message linking to there, as well as once the account has been created to redirect the user back to the originating wiki? --Rob Kam (talk) 12:32, 2 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Rob Kam Looking at these interface messages, it doesn't seem like there's an interface message that lets one define the page name location of Special:CreateAccount. Rather, you may be able to include a link to Loginwiki or to Meta Wiki to soft redirect users to those wikis to create an account (i.e., "To create a Miraheze global account, please visit this page." or something to that effect). Mainly, though, I would remove the  user right from your   user group, allowing whichever registered user groups you want to create accounts on your wiki. Hope that helps. Dmehus (talk) 14:40, 2 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Removing the  user group's   user right hides Special:CreateAccount. I've added an instruction on the home pages. --Rob Kam (talk) 17:57, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Rob Kam Oh, that's great that it hides the Special:CreateAccount user page automatically then. Dmehus (talk) 18:17, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Now I just need to find out how to change the user link in the header for anonymous users, from to  . --Rob Kam (talk) 20:51, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Rob Kam, you might consider enabling the RightFunctions parser function extension, which adds a parser function that allows you to check if a given user is in a given group and then display one of two messages. If they're anonymous, template #1 is displayed. If they're registered, template #2 is displayed. Dmehus (talk) 20:54, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't think that's needed since anonymous users already get in the header . I just need to preface the link Special:CreateAccount with loginwiki:. I'm unsure whether it's possible. --Rob Kam (talk) 21:13, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I mean I see you created this interface message, but I'm not sure that lets you define more just the linked text, though I guess you could maybe try modifying it to include the interwiki wikilink. There's also MediaWiki:Createaccount. Let me try something on TestWiki. Dmehus (talk) 21:18, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Rob Kam Unfortunately, my test creation of MediaWiki:Createaccount on TestWiki was not successful. I don't think this would technically be possible to do with interface messages, at least not without a change to core MediaWiki upstream. You could create a JavaScript gadget in your wiki's common.js file that replaces these links with custom links; however, I do wonder whether we'd be defeating the whole purpose of this endeavour by creating an automated link for a spambot to create an account on Loginwiki. I think it would probably be best just to leave as is, and do as you've done by explaining to human editors on your wiki's main page to create an account on Loginwiki, then return to your wiki to edit. Dmehus (talk) 21:36, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Having to create and maintain a JavaScript gadget is getting more technical than I can easily manage. For now it will have to work as it is. --Rob Kam (talk) 22:01, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Done (with help from Joritochip and others), although users will have to find their own way back from Login Wiki.
 * --Rob Kam (talk) 17:45, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Rob Kam Yeah, I saw that on the Phabricator task. Great multi-party collaboration from all involved. Thank you for copying the above script here as others may find it useful. Dmehus (talk) 18:38, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Request for Dormancy Policy Exemption for Two personal wikis
I'd like to apply for a dormancy exemption policy for these two wikis, I've updated them a fair bit the past few months, they're updated infrequently due to drip feed in writings and content, not to mention technical difficulties with my current hardware, and after I can put all that i need on them they won't really be updated past that, I am the sole editor of the wiki and this is a personal project, it's a lot to get into but it's only for cataloging information that isn't updated very often. U1-GA Encyclopedia in particular is important for something but that's a bit personal.

JuleKing2921 (talk) 06:16, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
 * JuleKing2921 Thank you for your request for exemptions to Dormancy Policy for each of your  and   wikis, which I've now assessed. In terms of need, indeed as they are both the personal original character repositories and story/literature writing wikis for your and EarlGrey's fictional world(s), for which you are the sole contributing editor, this part is satisfied. In terms of content, though a number of pages were sub-stubs, it's obvious they will be more fully expanded later on, and you've already met our generally accepted minimum content requirements with the other expanded pages you'd already written together with the original artistic creations in your wikis' File: namespace. Thus, I've ✅ you an indefinite exemption to Dormancy Policy as personal original character repositories and literature wikis of yourself and EarlGrey, for which you are the sole contributor, made to be read by real people. Please do advise us if you no longer require an exemption. Thank you. Dmehus (talk) 06:57, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Nyl It looks like you were in the process of setting up a new  user group, but removed the   user right from the   group before you'd assigned yourself the   group. So, I've ✅ the   user right to the   group for you in   (apologies for the incomplete log summary, as I accidentally launched a new tab, which completed the action; nevertheless, the log summary was completed here in this dummy log action). Dmehus (talk) 12:24, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Auditing of CheckUser actions
This is a very general question and is not aimed at any specific action, it was just something that came to my mind when I was reviewing logs. I am curious whether a process exist by which Stewards periodically review the private CheckUser log to make sure that none other Stewards are exceeding the scope of the CheckUser policy. If this does not presently exist, is it something that could be considered by the Stewards team? I think that the CheckUser tool is a very powerful one and that it should be made sure that it is not used too frequently or too lightly, as the policy says in order to not unnecessarily invade the privacy of users. --DeeM28 (talk) 14:36, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I wanted (later) add thread to CN about addition of "checkuser-log" permission to global steward group to better control, so they don't need add myself CU permission purely for "audit".--MrJaroslavik (talk) 15:25, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I think this could be an interesting idea, and while we're not the WMF of course, I checked and WMF Stewards also have the checkuser-log permission on a permanent basis, so I don't think it would be a bad idea to add that permission to Stewards here. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 10:55, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

Found a Username Policy Violation
I found that this user still exists with its current name, which I believe is either a Username Policy violation or it should be, given the obvious fact that it's inappropriate. Just though I should let a Steward know so they can warn the user and/or do a Global Rename. Turtle84375 (talk) 06:38, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for letting us know, I've locked the account. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 10:54, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I personally don't really see a Username Policy violation with D!ck in this case as "Dick" is a valid personal name (common short form for Richard). The user may be implying the vulgar slang for an appendage of male anatomy, or they may have just preferred to stylize their name in a unique way. If Dick were a registered user on Miraheze, I suppose you could make a Username Policy violation case on impersonation grounds, but it would be a bit weak, I think, as "Dick" is such a common name, so it'd really depend on the user's contributions. Dmehus (talk) 14:04, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Dmehus True, I overlooked that possibility. Looking at their edits, while one of them seems like it was reverted by the owner of a talk page, and the other is on their userpage (both in a different wiki), none of these are violations, I believe. Well, in that case, here's another one to lock, and this one, for Username Policy violation, as these are definitely vulgar. But does locking them even matter if they have no activity? Turtle84375 (talk) 17:59, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Turtle84375 Those could be locked, or at least warned first and invited to request a rename, then locked if no rename is done. However, your point is a very good one. There is little need to lock, as they haven't edited. The first account exists outside of Meta, so there could be more of a need there. In terms of hiding the usernames globally, I don't feel the usernames are so offensive to warrant global hiding. That is typically used for awful offensive usernames that target a Miraheze user or specific group of people. Dmehus (talk) 18:05, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Dmehus Huh, interesting to know, there's "global hiding." It's ultimately up to you guys what is done with those accounts, the only purpose of this Steward noticeboard post was to point out a few accounts. If you don't think anything needs to be done, I'm fine with that. Turtle84375 (talk) 18:22, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

Lock Ddxfx and a sock of said user:
If you have a look at both Ddxfx2 and Ddxfx's edits on this wiki, it looks like blatant vandalism to me. The former is a sockpuppet of the latter, and while the latter is the sockmaster. Is it enough for a lock on both of those accounts? DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 14:13, 5 April 2021 (UTC)


 * This would need a closer examination, as many of the user's edits were made on non-English free vandalism type wikis and may be locally permitted vandalism. Dmehus (talk) 14:15, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * So does that mean you're going to look at them now? DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 14:16, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I'll try and take a look later today. I have a number of other priorities to look after first. Dmehus (talk) 14:17, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

B’crat right
I have requested a wiki named WikiGuide  before. However, I deleted the usergroup “Founder” that I created carelessly.

 * Matttest This is indeed the best venue for you to request this, as you are requesting inadvertently dropped user groups from your same account. I've ✅ your inadvertently dropped  and   rights per this request.
