Semi-protection for Q109352798

There is unproductive edit warring going on at Q109352798. I'm not even sure which version is correct. Could someone take a look at it? - XXBlackburnXx (talk) 18:50, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

see also abuselog... Seems automated... - XXBlackburnXx (talk) 19:04, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

I protected the item for a while (until the user becomes autoconfirmed) to buy us some time. The correct version is probably this one.

Is the activity something that warrants indef block? Given there are some private global anti-spam rules, should this be forwarded to stewards? --Matěj Suchánek (talk) 19:29, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

There seems to be some long-term lock evasion going on so I reported the account to the stewards. The IPs are likely proxies or shared CGNAT, so I don't think any blocking is needed. I'm definitely putting this page on my watchlist though. - XXBlackburnXx (talk)

Semi-protection for Q85867923

Repeated and unreasonable sitelink removals by anonymous users. Regards Kirilloparma (talk) 00:52, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

I mean, is there value to including that redirect sitelink if it's redirecting to the wrong company? Is it even the wrong company? Looking at the discussion on enwiki it seems to be pretty well thought out. -- Ajraddatz (talk) 00:55, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

@Ajraddatz: Definitely makes sense, since that's its developer. The redirection on enwiki was created for a reason and if it was wrong it would have been corrected or removed long ago. By the way deliberate redirection to the video game developers on enwiki is not a new thing, here's some other examples ([2], [3], [4]). And yes, this is the right company ([5], [6], [7]), so I don't see any point in letting anonyms remove the sitelink. Regards Kirilloparma (talk) 01:49, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for confirming, reading the history there seemed to be some question of whether it was correct. I've re-added the redirect link and protected the page, directing dicussion to the talk page. -- Ajraddatz (talk) 02:47, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Recommend range block for 2001:8003:DD56:0:0:0:0:0/48

This IP range was just blocked on Commons for creating a massive number of unnecessary categories. The block was explicitly a "hey you need to create an account so we can talk to you" but the disruption was so significant there there really wasn't any other choice. It seems like that range is also creating a massive number of unnecessary items on this project, and is continuing to do so. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 19:50, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Ok, this is ridiculous. I agree with your assessment. On Wikidata this editor have been active back to 14 February 2024. No history of previous range blocks on Wikidata or global range blocks. Edits on Wikidata are also confined to the /64 which I will block whilst leaving account-creation enabled. I recommend the Commons block is changed to a one-year block or at least a finite one as IP addresses are not permanent. Infrastruktur (talk) 22:52, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

why was Q123385584 deleted when it was still linked from Silk and Petals (Q123385514)? Anyways I'm still not seeing coverage of either the book or author. BrokenSegue (talk) 21:24, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

It was self published by the author. So unlike traditionally published books it hasn’t got the paid media coverage. But has done (saw these on two reviewers and author’s insta) 10 times more sales than traditionally published self published books. CursedProtector (talk) 07:47, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Filter entering and I can't finish.

I'm trying to save discussions on the Wikidata Portuguese village pump from 2020 to 2023 (link). However, an anti-spam filter is blocking my edits. I initially removed YouTube links to bypass the filter (Wikidata:Esplanada/Arquivo/2020-2023), but now it's also catching Facebook and Twitter links.

It's unclear why this filter applies to established users (autoconfirmed) as well. It seems unreasonable. -- Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton (talk) 22:40, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

@Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton you don't seem to have tripped any abuse filters since April - it looks like this is the spam blocklist based on some of the links you are trying to add. See Special:Log/spamblacklist/Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton for the details about what links are blocking you from saving --DannyS712 (talk) 07:05, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

@DannyS712, yes, I am trying to archive, so this links are already on the Village Pump, they are links to social media of a Brazilian Wikimedia User Group and links to workshops events on YouTube. And as you can see, I can't simple copy and paste. Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton (talk) 17:07, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

@Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton: the problem seems to be specifically with one "shre(.)ink" link – link shorteners are usually blocked globally, so I would suggest you modify only that link when moving to the archive. –FlyingAce^✈hello 17:19, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

@FlyingAce there are many. Can't administrators bypass the filters? It is a 2-minute edit that, for me, would take probably an hour or so. Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton (talk) 17:54, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

@Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton admins cannot bypass that either, but if you use something like https://www.regextester.com/ you can do a batch find-and-replace to surround the link with nowiki tags --DannyS712 (talk) 21:48, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

User talk:Zubryckiy

I blocked the user indef for persistent removal of valid content from pages (on the last occasion, the sistership agreement between the cities was apparently terminated, but they did not care to look for sources, and still do not, and just removed the property). After that, they (i) started addressing me in Ukrainian, which I do not speak (I reply to them in Dutch, which is what I always do if someone keeps talking to me in Ukrainain); (ii) called me a rushist which is a personal attack; (iii) called me a vandal; (iv) said that I am promoting a Russian invasion of Ukraine and defend the Putin's cause (they do not use exactly these words, but still).

TemirovBot

No real big deal but it seems TemirovBot is (was?) massively adding statements with wikicode in the title of the source, a wikicode formatted reference with a template, entirely in the title property field. See for example this edit : https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q19642583&curid=21244550&diff=2174354453&oldid=1756748655

@Игорь Темиров: author TomT0m / talk page 11:50, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

I'm migrating the population database from Ruviki to wikidata. About 600 thousand observations. Output supported by template Population. I have not found a single way to correctly display links in articles, other than placing templates in the title field. Other language sections may handle in their own manner. Игорь Темиров (talk) 12:29, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

@Игорь Темиров: This cannot work like that, this would mean that, say on frwiki, the templates you use does not exists, so trying to display the reference for the statements would display an error.

There are ways to display Widata statements as references on Wikipedias, the "Cite Q" module is one Module:Cite Q (Q33429959)  

— you can create an item for one (or all) very cited reference in your list for example, add the relevant statements to the item, use it in a reference with "stated in (P248)

". The "cite Q" module should not be very hard to import.

You can also adapt functions like this one (of the Wikidata frwiki lua module) that uses the relevant properties of a statement reference to add display it. author TomT0m / talk page 13:05, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

@TomT0m: Yes, thanks, I know about these modules. But, unfortunately, none of them correctly displays information about links if they include, for example, an archive on the Internet and the like.

(you forgot to sign) @Игорь Темиров: This can be solved, you should import the data correctly anyway, and deal with the problems with templates afterward. See the enwiki cite Q Module includes code to deal with archive url Search, for example, if there is a bug you may discuss it in the talkpage for help on how to solve this. author TomT0m / talk page 13:48, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

I am planning to do what you are talking about after migrating the data Игорь Темиров (talk) 14:21, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

@Игорь Темиров: You mean, import the source data all in the title field for them to be displayed OK on ruwiki and avoid seeing errors or display issue on ruwiki, at the expense of having errors or display issues in all other wikis and external data reusers. There may be many many over reusers than the "population" template, infoboxes for example, also the "article placeholder" extension, see Q19642583  

on nnwiki for example. There is an open list of problems where this can go wrong. This is very bad practice.

Then parse the template to extract the field and put them properly on Wikidata and setting a correct title, a correct external url and so on, so correcting the errors everywhere else only afterward ? I don't think it's an acceptable thing to do. It seem easier to import the data correctly in the first place, that to re-parse the template afterward and redo a whole bot run.

It's more work to do in the end the way you do it, what's the rush ? author TomT0m / talk page 14:45, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Yes, you are right. Naturally I would think so. But, again, due to poor display of reference, I went this route. But even in this case, Q19642583  

on nnwiki does not look fatal. Игорь Темиров (talk) 14:54, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Removal of ISNI by User:Epìdosis

Reporting: https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q37594&diff=prev&oldid=2179820220 - User:Epìdosis removed a valid ID. This breaks database-connections, e.g. via OpenRefine. It might be OK for some secondary IDs, but for ISO-IDs that are widely used this causes much more trouble.

User:TemirovBot

This bot currently misuses title (P1476) property to add Wikipedia template syntax in Wikidata. This breakes the data for data consumers that use reference properties in proper manner. E.g. see Special:Diff/2176659938. Bot operator apparently does this intentionally, and doesn't intent to fix their bot (see User talk:Игорь Темиров#References not properly extracted from Wikipedia templates). I think this bot needs to be blocked and it's recent edits should be reversed. 2001:7D0:81DB:1480:E417:CFF3:ACEA:C1D8 21:04, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Report concerning Twofivesixbot

Twofivesixbot from Mahir256 is currently making edits to replace property WorldCat Identities ID (superseded) (P7859) with WorldCat Entities ID (P10832). But there is no consensus for this migration. Which is why I asked Mahir256 on both his talk page and the delete discussion page to suspend this task of his bot immediately. Because he allowed the deadline that I set in the deletion discussion to pass unused, I hereby demand administrative intervention. --Gymnicus (talk) 20:09, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

I am afraid you seriously misrepresent the content of User talk:Mahir256#Twofivesixbot deletes statements. Ymblanter (talk) 09:38, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

To what extent am I misrepresenting the content? --Gymnicus (talk) 13:58, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

In the discussion, two users objected to you. You are portraying it like if you gave a warning and then nothing happened. Ymblanter (talk) 17:40, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

Yes, I also issued a warning on the deletion discussion page for the property. Mahir let this warning or ultimatum pass and the Twofivesixbot is still processing it today. I also don't understand why you mention the rejections of my request by Mahir256 and Epìdosis. Because it is clear that the two advocates of migration are defending them. But this section is about whether the keep camp, to which I belong, was included in the discussion about migration or whether the delete faction is pushing for deletion indirectly and has not included the keep camp in this consideration. And since I, as a supporter of the complete retention of the property, was not once pinched in the discussion about migration and there was no new vote on migration, I consider my demand here in this section to be correct. --Gymnicus (talk) 21:02, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

What is problematic about replacing a deprecated property with the current one? --Ameisenigel (talk) 15:00, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

The problem is that, as already mentioned, there is no consensus on these edits and there was no vote on whether a migration should be carried out. A smaller group of deletion advocates have simply come up with a detour on how to delete the property, even though there is no consensus on this. And then in these considerations they didn't even include the group of people who are against the deletion of the property and to which I also belong. --Gymnicus (talk) 15:41, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

Let me get this right: You basically object to the deletion of the values for the old property, and you have no objection to the migration plan that was proposed in March this year? If you do object to the migration plan, please post a specific objection in the property deletion discussion. Infrastruktur (talk) 21:27, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

I have objections to both the deletion and the migration. And I complain that the group that wants to keep the property was not included in the planning of the migration and was not asked for its opinion. In addition, there was basically no vote on the migration idea. At least I don't see any section where I could cast my vote. For this reason, I demand that the migration be stopped until it has been properly discussed and voted on. --Gymnicus (talk) 22:00, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Links are fixed. MathXplore (talk) 15:18, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

Enwiki initially sent an article about the scientist back to draft basically telling them to show notability. Later the user was blocked claiming undisclosed paid editing / conflict of interest and promotional material without showing evidence [17]. If they have taken a couple of seconds to search scholarly databases, the notability question would have been laid to rest. The dude seems to be a published chemist. There is also a sitelink to japanese wikipedia. I don't know the specifics of the notability policy on english and simple wiki, but published scientists are generally considered notable on Wikidata. Since multiple accounts have to be used abusively for it to be socking, and blocks are done to protect the site, I don't see a compelling reason to block these from Wikidata. But yes, they shouldn't have more than one account for no good reason, but I wouldn't know which accounts to block. Infrastruktur (talk) 18:50, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

Report concerning Olea

A few years ago the user @Olea: added a dataset to Wikidata about Digital Guide to the Cultural Heritage of Andalusia (Q5758805). This file, in many cases indicates elements with ambiguous terms in a table, such as house, when in reality what it is talking about in the text is more specific buildings such as a town hall. The source clearly explains that it is a town hall, the term house is very general and not very precise. Furthermore, the source itself indicates that it is a town hall, there is no doubt about it. A few days ago Olea undid here my edition, because he says that the source indicates that, but it is not really a house, nobody lives in it. I have also indicated to him that it was not relevant to put "Contemporary Age", as he has put in all the elements of Digital Guide to the Cultural Heritage of Andalusia (Q5758805), because he is already adding the specific year. It seems that he would like to add more editions because it is not important information. Another error with the source is to interpret that the years that appear in the table of links such this are really the beginning and end of the use of the building, as here has indicated. In this item I deleted the incorrect year because the source indicates it was built in 1929 and he has undone me again, even though I added the referenced year just below. All the elements he added are created like this, and after telling him it refuses to modify them correctly because he says the source says that. The problem is not exclusively this. When he added the dataset, I indicated that he had duplicated hundreds of elements, and I had to merge many of them. He told me he was working on it, but at no time has he responded to my messages about its completion and I have recently found several more, so he is not dedicating himself to solving these problems. He also duplicated property values and I sent him a query with 826 duplicates that I had left there over the years. This problems are added to other datasets that he also added on other topics, use Mix'n'Match and leave the names as indicated by the tool even if they are in capital letters and without more data to identify the elements, other duplicates issues, etc. I ask that the user be told that he cannot add datasets without making prior queries, that he has to review the veracity of the source data before adding them, that he has to review the data after inserting it to erase all those errors from the tools introduce, that he cannot move on to other tasks until he has correctly left the added data and that he answers the messages that are written about it, solving the errors and not hindering the tasks of the rest of the users. Thank you. Vanbasten 23 (talk) 09:55, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

If you have created items containing errors, then it seems reasonable to ask you to fix those up, or to provide a timescale for when this might be done. Are you willing to do this? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 21:13, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

@MSGJ It is 2024 and I'm fixing any error I'm finding since that data load in 2020. I'm still updating when I find updates at the source. You can check my edits at 10th of June or before as an example. Other users could confirm I'm actively curating all the Andalusian heritage in Wikidata (more than 24k items) since then. Not just that, some months ago I wrote a retrospective about my experience with this data set I presented in Wikidata Days 2023. So yes, I'm willing to keep and enhance the dataset quality and integrity. —Ismael Olea (talk) 16:28, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

Comment I think that in the two answers you have given here you do not provide clear solutions as we are asking. "I'm willing to keep and enhance the dataset quality and integrity" you said it several times, what is going to change now? You say you started in 2020. Shortly after I started writing to you about the matter. After 4 years we continue here. Do you understand the frustration of a user when he does not see solutions to problems, and also does not receive a response to his messages? I had to merge many elements and I told you that there were other problems to solve. You told me you were on it. You made other insertions, you fixed some problems that arose, and you still didn't spend any time on it. I wrote to you again, you were still at it. In June 2022 you proposed other different jobs and I told you again that you were not paying attention to these problems. I have let it be, but now I change a property and you revert it saying that it is fine, when it is not, thereby preventing others from solving your errors. You say "other users could confirm", am I not another user? What do you call "willing to keep and enhance" when you have not yet deleted all the end dates of the instances? That data has been wrong for 4 years and you keep letting it pass. The same as the query I sent you. I dedicate my time so that there are no solutions... Also, I don't think it's appropriate that you give us a link to promote the work you do outside of here, while you are not respecting the rest of the community. I think I am always available to help people, but if there is an intention to do things well. We all make mistakes, but you have to be a little sensitive with the rest. --Vanbasten 23 (talk) 20:13, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

To be cristal clear:

You talk about sensitivity but you always address me in an imperative way. I'm not into this.
You don't manage how I spent my time.
You describe a partial/subjective view of my work: ok, you have the right to ignore the rest but then don't bring accusations of wrongdoing.
It is insulting how you describe the link to a document presented in a Wikimedia community event.
Outside Wikimedia I would say you are harassing me, but here I would not make an accusation so serious because I don't have interest spending my time in awful non productive discussions.

In brief, I'm tired how you talk to me. —Ismael Olea (talk) 11:46, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

@Olea: I'm not going to play into your games so as not to answer the topic that has been opened here. I think you are confusing yourself with someone else, outside Wikimedia I don't know you at all, so I can hardly harass you. I repeat what I have told you other times, if you need me for something here I am, but since you don't answer my messages I have to ask an admin (@MSGJ:) to take action. All the best. --Vanbasten 23 (talk) 18:14, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

Abuse filter/Revert bot against LTA vandals

On Wikidata:Requests for checkuser/Case/LTA vandals we have confirmed some persistent LTA vandals, of which I have yet to find a common pattern. Do you have any ideas for an abuse filter or a revert bot? Pinging some active admins who have edited abuse filters multiple times. @Matěj Suchánek, DannyS712, Ajraddatz, Bovlb: What do you think? --Wüstenspringmaus _talk 14:32, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

There is already more than one abuse filter which deals with this specific LTA (just check Special:Log/block). They have even got their own "callsign", and there is a publicly accessible page somewhere where all information about their activity is collected (I'm not sharing it here for obvious reasons). --Matěj Suchánek (talk) 14:37, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

From a quick look at the contributions, I see three abuse patterns: text in IMDB id; inappropriate images; inappropriate text in aliases.

The first would be easy to exclude with a filter that required IMDB ids to be correctly formatted. We could do the same thing with most identifiers. This sort of filter might be a net gain for the project as we see a lot of malformed identifiers (usually complete URLs). Historically we have tended to avoid such filters, presumably on the grounds that it's better to get the information in there and fix the format later. Alternatively, we could just keep a closer eye on Wikidata:Database_reports/Constraint_violations/P345#"Format"_violations.

It's harder to write a filter against inappropriate aliases. There's already a lot of variety in what good faith editors consider to be reasonable aliases. We could probably train an AI to do this with some reasonable level of accuracy, but I don't think we could run that as an abuse filter. Still, it would help us to react faster when there's an attack.

Identifying inappropriate images would be quite hard. I'd hope that if an image is appropriate for an entity, then the entity is referenced somewhere in the image's metadata on Commons, but I'm sure there are a lot of valid exceptions. Again, we can't check that in an abuse filter. Bovlb (talk) 15:27, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

Please revert June 20 edits by User:Jephtah Ogyefo Acquah

Jephtah Ogyefo Acquah (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • logs • filter log • block user • block log • SUL (for IP: GUC)) I just spent two months of my life fixing problems with badly merged individual records almost entirely caused by naive users using Magnus Manske's distributed game - duplicate authors tool. I've asked Magnus to fix it and it may be slightly better than it was, but it is still recommending far too many merges of people who are NOT the same person. Anyway, I checked my watchlist and recent changes just now and found the above user has made over 1000 edits this morning that are merges using this tool. If I really have to I'll spend another few weeks fixing these, but I'd prefer this just to be mass reverted if possible. ArthurPSmith (talk) 14:33, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

Note this is somewhat urgent because Krbot will be moving links to the merged items in the next few days, which makes things much harder to revert. ArthurPSmith (talk) 14:36, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

I spot-checked a few of this user's merges that were done after your recent warning, and they were all either good merges or the items had too little information to say either way. If there's evidence that the high error rate is continuing despite the warning, we should block them from mainspace until we get some resolution. Bovlb (talk) 15:37, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

@Bovlb: The error rate has been 30-50% in recent weeks, and I don't think this person is being more careful yet. For example this merge from earlier today is clearly wrong, the names differ significantly. The ones that are "ambiguous" have to be sorted out by looking at the "What links here" relations - these are authors of articles. Considerable care has been made to disambiguate for example authors of high energy physics papers that can have hundreds of authors, some with the same first initial and family name; usually it's based on affiliation. These edits are wholesale throwing out this work. ArthurPSmith (talk) 15:56, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

Some more examples of clear errors from today: Kunhong Kim vs Kyung-Sup Kim, Heon-Jeong Lee vs Hyang Woon Lee, Fuyi Wang vs Feng Wang, Young Kee Kim vs Young-Min Kim. That last one is especially egregious - Young Kee Kim is the current president of the American Physical Society! ArthurPSmith (talk) 16:04, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

Unfortunately those specific bad merges were before your warning. I realise that you're seeking mass reversion here, but I was focussing on a narrower issue: whether we should use a partial block to prevent even more problems and encourage communication. Bovlb (talk) 16:08, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

@Bovlb: A block is not really what I'm asking for. I need to know soon whether a mass revert will happen, because if not I'll be spending my next few days trying to fix as many of these as possible before Krbot hits and complicates things. ArthurPSmith (talk) 19:06, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

I do understand to errors some of my edits had. It wasn't intentional and I do understand the work loads those errors bring. Offen at times I do edit and realise there isn't anything/button to undo what I have sent already because the moment a click is made it automatically records. Once again sorry for this mistakes. I will be more careful when editing next time. 102.176.66.185 23:03, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

This addresses the symptoms and not the underlying cause. Unfortunately it seems there is no rollback link for items that were merged _from_, which makes cleanup much harder to do than it should be. Is there any chance at all to add some functionality to this tool or add functionality externally that would aid in any cleanup that has to be done? Infrastruktur (talk) 06:29, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

ArthurPSmith suggested limiting the use of the tool to confirmed users. Not sure this would help making sure the merges aren't careless. The tool already displays a notification to users urging them to be careful making sure the items are the same, does it not? Maybe there should be an example or two to new users showing what to look for to make sure the items are the same? A graphic or video demonstration would probably be ideal. Time might be better spent on this than on cleaning up after the fact. Infrastruktur (talk) 12:30, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

Magnus has disabled this tool for now. I don't understand much about the tool itself - it's probably been years since I tried the "distributed game". Treating merges as a "game" for new users seems always likely to be fraught with risk. But if somebody could provide some help for new users on this maybe we can risk it. It certainly does some good in cleaning up duplicates, but right now it's just far to easy to merge things that shouldn't be. ArthurPSmith (talk) 14:56, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

I've started work on reverting by hand where I can see these are wrong. For the 500 edits from 01:26 to 02:56 there were 215 merges, of which I have now reviewed all and reverted 81. So that's about 38% error rate, roughly in line with how this has gone in the past. The tool just makes it far too easy to cause trouble here. ArthurPSmith (talk) 19:41, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

FYI this review work is finished, no need for mass reversion. This was a lot of work over a few days but I think I caught it before any bots moved redirected values to the merged ones, in the cases of bad merges. Overall of 702 merges made by this user on June 20, I reverted 325, for a roughly 46% error rate. ArthurPSmith (talk) 03:23, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Report concerning User:Mas-que-na'

Mas-que-na' (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • logs • filter log • block user • block log • SUL (for IP: GUC)) I strongly believe this is a sockpuppet of OppsMetal (indef blocked & globally locked): both speak Spanish, both use #quickstatements, both like to play with changing Wikidata properties a lot, often by adding redundant things. For example, by location (Q56042075) should be used only for metacategories, but this user inserted it in thousands of irrelevant items. I remember well that OppsMetal did the same. I also hope some admin can revert all that. I'm quite sure that yet other sockpuppet did the same things a year ago (can not remember user name), and also got indef blocked, but was not recognized as OppsMetal's sock. --Orijentolog (talk) 09:33, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

Unfortunately, we cannot make a CU request as this data is only available for 90 days. However, I can also see many similarities between the two accounts. Pinging the blocking administrator of OppsMetal @MisterSynergy: and the locking steward @AmandaNP: What do you think? --Wüstenspringmaus _talk 14:21, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

It is kinda far away in the past for me, thus I cannot tell much for the account in question.

I do remember though that I considered User:OppsMetal to be a follow-up account of User:Hey80'Q, which in turn followed User:&beer&love (all indefinitely blocked by me). They all had plenty of batch-editing experience particularly with the QuickStatements tool; regularly, their jobs were problematic at least, and the willingness to communicate on their user talk pages or to clean up their own mess was pretty much absent. So, if you need more data to compare the user in question to, these connections might be useful. —MisterSynergy (talk) 17:09, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

Considering editing, certainly the same person. @Wüstenspringmaus: do you think this one should also be blocked & locked? --Orijentolog (talk) 23:27, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

Global lock requested and now globally locked. Regards --Wüstenspringmaus _talk 05:23, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

Vandalism user blocking request

Hello @Do2112 The user named persistently Q160077 This page is committing vandalism. The page must be protected and the user must be blocked. Wikipedia is also committing vandalism. Selamiben (talk) 18:49, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

This edit-warring is happening at the Turkish Wikipedia, and the issue must be solved there. Ymblanter (talk) 18:56, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Ymblanter It will be blocked there anyway, the user constantly changes his name here, either a temporary block should be given or the page should be temporarily protected, at least it cannot be vandalized. Selamiben (talk) 19:05, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

What looks like the name changing here is in fact page moves on the Turkish Wikipedia. Ymblanter (talk) 19:11, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Yes @Ymblanter Selamiben (talk) 19:13, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Filters go wrong

I create some pages in Italian Wikipedia and i want to link it in wikidata, but any changes I make are blocked as "spam". I want to add Britannica link but say block-spam, i want to add name and description in Italian but prevent blocking by spam. This is crazy. Please fix, because is an abuse to block prevention of good contribution. 109.114.27.56 08:49, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

Hey anyone answer? It's very serious, there's a false positive from the anti-spam filter that's gone crazy and no one is doing anything? I want to put Britannica Encyclopaedia in the external links of an entry and it gives me "spam". See the message "Could not save due to an error. The save has failed. Your action has triggered the Abuse Filter This action has been automatically identified as harmful, and therefore disallowed. If you believe your action was constructive, please inform an administrator of what you were trying to do. A brief description of the abuse rule which your action matched is: Spam". What abuse with Britannica link or add Wikipedia page link or description on incipit? Please correct urgently. 109.114.2.212 06:58, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

I have just temporarily suspended the filter. --Matěj Suchánek (talk) 07:28, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

Please give me permission. Thank you.

I create some pages in Spanish Wikipedia and I want to link it in wikidata, but I can't seem to add or remove badges on Wikibooks unless an administrator gives me permission. That's why I ask you to please give me permission. Thank you. Kenneth Adrián Jiménez Granados (talk) 14:51, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi Kenneth Adrián Jiménez Granados, you must have the confirmed flag to be able to add/remove badges. You must request this right here. Regards --Wüstenspringmaus _talk 06:11, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

Or perhaps they could merely edit constructively until they gain the "autoconfirmed" flag??? Isn't this the normal means of granting permission? This user account is less than a month old, but already editing on multiple wikis; should be able to gain autoconfirmed status without any trouble, and then automatically gain rights to add badges. Elizium23 (talk) 07:02, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

We frequently grant confirmed status to users in good standing in other projects who are just starting to contribute to Wikidata, so Wüstenspringmaus correctly provided the link for such requests. I would agree that in this particular case it is better to have a more established track record of contributions, though. –FlyingAce^✈hello 23:51, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

Report concerning User:Coddlebean

Coddlebean (talk • contribs • deleted contribs • logs • filter log • block user • block log • SUL (for IP: GUC)) — Reasons: Vandalism - This user delinked a slew of Wikipedia links from Wikidata items in apparent acts of vandalism on 25 June 2024. On the same day, the user committed some juvenile vandalism over on Wikipedia. - Amigao (talk) 21:38, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

@Amigao: this is not a new account, created on 15 January 2022. I warned the user. For the one edit in enwiki (what you mentioned above), see his reasoning here: en:User_talk:Coddlebean#Compromised_Account? Estopedist1 (talk) 07:13, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

After your warning, we are still seeing the same behavior from this user of delinking Wikipedia links from Wikidata items. For example here. - Amigao (talk) 17:01, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
