Wikipedia block in Turkey can you please make me IPblock-exempt

Hello, I'm living in Turkey and Wikipedia is blocked in my country since 29 April 2017 as you know earlier. I was really sorry when I saw I'm blocked but I had to use VPN to access Wikipedia. I'm using OperaVPN right now and this is the message I got: "Your IP address is in a range which has been blocked on all wikis. The block was made by Vituzzu (meta.wikimedia.org). The reason given is leaky colo + open proxy at 188.166.232.125. Start of block: 16:14, 14 Ocak 2016 Expiration of block: 16:14, 14 Ocak 2021 You can contact Vituzzu to discuss the block.

Thank you in advance and have a nice day. frukoprof


I live in Turkey as well, I'm facing the same problem, I'm using browsec right now and this is the message I got:

Blocking a range in which my IP address is included

I have only contributed for a few times since I joined Wikipedia, and then this happened. My current IP address 208.123.223.254 was included in a huge block range 208.123.208.0/20. The block was made by Vituzzu, and the reason given is leaky colo + open proxy at 208.123.223.242.s. And since it was implemented, I had to wait for the year 2020 before I could edit a page again, so please help me.

Block of IP range 37.17.224.0/21

Hi Vituzzu,

could you please so kind and take a look at Steward requests/Global permissions#Global IP block exempt for UT-interwiki-Bot? I want to run my interwiki bot UT-interwiki-Bot on a Linux server which has an IP that's in a range which has been blocked on all wikis by you, see here. Would it be possible, to "downgrade" this block from "37.17.224.0/21" to "37.17.224.0/24"? With your block you have banned all IPs from 37.17.224.0 until 37.17.231.255 (that are 2046 IPs). Unfortunately the IP of my Linux server begins with 37.17.225.* and is therefore banned by the block you have set. If you could change the block from "37.17.224.0/21" to "37.17.224.0/24" I wouldn't need a global IP block exempt for my bot UT-interwiki-Bot.

Thanks in advance and greetings from Austria. --Udo T. (talk) 19:33, 24 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unblock Request

Hi,

I'm new to Wikinews and as part of a university assessment am required to use the platform, however I've been blocked from editing articles and I'm not really sure why.

The reason given is leaky colo + lots of spam. I am using a VPN, but the block started on November 27 2015.

Hello Vituzzu

I just received an email from a French person, who tried to edit an article today and was informed he was blocked. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spécial:Contributions/45.32.146.74

The reason you gave was leaking cool + open proxy at 45.32.89.47.

Obviously, this person is not the original reason why this address was blocked. Do you know why it was blocked ? Can it be unblocked ? If not, what do you recommend for him to be able to edit ?

Thanks

Unfortunately, Vituzzu has personally decided that people in China do not deserve to contribute to Wikipedia. Until he explains further, I suspect it's racially and politically motivated. 103.10.197.202 18:43, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Why are you blocking IPs that people in certain countries NEED in order to access Wikipedia? Is your real name Bashar al-Assad?

The username of my account is seok won. I will be very thanked if you unlock my account in that blocked range, so I can continue editing in Wikipedia and other Wikimedia. Many thanks in advance.

Range Block Reversal

Hi Vituzzu,

I'm TJH2018 on enwiki, and I recently just switched schools. I was sad to learn that my school's IP is blocked. My school uses a service called Securly to route all of the traffic through a filter, and the IP has been caught in a range block. It appears that my school's IP is very dynamic. Here's the message I got:

Your IP address is in a range which has been blocked on all wikis.

The block was made by Vituzzu (meta.wikimedia.org). The reason given is amazon webservices + abuse from 54.153.32.213.

Start of block: 10:13, 21 April 2015 Expiration of block: 10:13, 21 April 2020

You can contact Vituzzu to discuss the block. You cannot use the "Email this user" feature unless a valid email address is specified in your account preferences and you have not been blocked from using it. Your current IP address is 54.153.43.59, and the blocked range is 54.153.0.0/16. Please include all above details in any queries you make.

If you could unblock, that would be great.

Best,

Block Review

Greetings. I am a editor from China Mainland. For some reason, Wikipedia is blocked by the GFW(The Great FireWall of China). And I cannot build my own proxy server, that means I have to use some open proxy like Lantern. So I want IP block exemption, thanks.

45.32.146.74

Hello Vituzzu

I already asked you, but never got an answer. I would appreciate one. Thank you. Anthere (talk) 16:26, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]


I just received an email from a French person, who tried to edit an article today and was informed he was blocked. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spécial:Contributions/45.32.146.74

The reason you gave was leaking cool + open proxy at 45.32.89.47.

Obviously, this person is not the original reason why this address was blocked. Do you know why it was blocked ? Can it be unblocked ? If not, what do you recommend for him to be able to edit ?

Thanks

185.125.168.0/22

Hi Vito, you blocked this range globally for 5 years, probably because of .173's contribs in it.wp. A German user recently complained about being affected by this block, for he's using some virtual server hosted in Norway. It's not an "open proxy" open to everybody. - Could you confine your range block to IP .173? Or would it be OK if we undo it locally in de.wp?

Blocco firewall

Ciao, non sono certo che sia tu che te ne occupi, mi succede che da qualche tempo ho enormi problemi coi browser in quanto mi si intromettono degli ad che mi mandano dove vogliono loro e non riesco a navigare tranquillamente. Sul PC non succede, li ho il firewall Norton e altri antimalaware. Sull'iPad e smartphone invece è una tragedia! Sull'iPad ho installato un firewall Norton, che fa il suo dovere solo che purtroppo mi blocca Wikipedia. C'è un modo di risolvere? Grazie --Brunokito (talk) 20:39, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Shadegan! A proxy can be used not only by you; so, unblocking proxy's IP can be dangerous. But you can ask for IP block exemption. It can be global or local (you are active mostly in the Persian and English language sections of Wikipedia). See CheckUser policy. Gamliel Fishkin 09:50, 7 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Private Internet Access VPN blocked

Private Internet Access is also blocked by you. Using such a VPN is part of a series of measures a lot of people take to garantee their privacy, and it should not prevent us from contributing to Wikipedia and related websites. Legit user accounts are the way to discriminate against spam edits. You should educate yourself before taking such drastic actions.

PIA range blocked, explanation sought

Your IP address is in a range which has been blocked on all wikis. The block was made by Vituzzu (meta.wikimedia.org). The reason given is leaky colo + lots of spam at 168.1.53.XXX.

What is a leaky colo when that is not being diagnosed by a proctologist?

As per user Epireyn this is a dynamically assigned IP address/range by a VPN provider. Was the incidence of spam so serious that such a long block is really warranted? Or is there a commercial sub-text to this block that I'm not getting?

No renaming between November 20 and November 27

Hi,

You’re getting this because you’re a steward or global renamer. The Community Tech team are working on cross-wiki watchlists. We need to add a couple of fields to the localuser table in centralauth database. In order to be able to do this, we’d need to run a script that will get in the way of renaming users. Our apologies – we realize this is getting in the way of your work.

We ask that you do not rename anyone between 00:00 November 20 (UTC) and 00:00 November 27 (UTC).

(UTC means that if you live in the Americas, it will be on the evening or afternoon of November 19 when the script starts running, and if you live in Oceania or eastern Asia, it can be closer midday on November 27 before we can be sure the script is no longer running.)

Phabricator task.

Blocco

Ciao, torno sulle ragioni del blocco. Evidentemente devo aver frainteso il tuo messaggio che mi scrivetti ad agosto, il quale recitava "delle utenze puoi fare quello che vuoi, se evadi il blocco sei fuori." Io ero convinto che intendessi che da anonimo potevo fare qualche piccolo contributo, senza però utilizzare la pagina utente. Ora, mi scuso se sono evaso su Pedia, ma lo avevo fatto solo per una giusta causa, ovvero, creare i collegamenti con delle voci appena create su Wikiquote. Oltretutto il blocco mi è stato esteso anche su Quote, dove io opero in maniera corretta (a parte quei vandalismi da te scoperti). Mi dispiace molto che non mi credi, non è mia intenzione prenderti in giro, a me dispiace un sacco di non poter partecipare su wikipedia e su wikiquote per un anno intero, spero tu possa fidarti di me, anche se so che ti rimane difficile.--Prugna (talk) 17:27, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Requesting unblock of ip address

Hello, My name ist Albritter and i wuld like to request the unblocking of the IP address 188.40.102.139. The Blocked IP range is 188.40.0.0/16 becouse of open proxy. My Classmates and I are yousing this server as an VPN exit node. The VPN server requiers certificate authentification and no one else has access to it.

Thank you.

Can you give me the specific addresses of your VPN endpoints? --Vituzzu (talk) 00:53, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please unblock 217.114.208.0/20

You globaly blocked 217.114.208.0/20, because the IP 217.114.213.19 is/was an open proxy and spamed. The network from this IP is 217.114.213.16/29. You blocked 4,094 IP addresses for five years, because only one IP was spaming.... Please revert this global block and block optional the IP or small network from the open proxy. Regards from 217.114.220.64/26 --Tofour (talk) 13:30, 5. December 2016‎ (UTC)

@Tofour: anonimization services aren't allowed on Wikimedia, you shouldn't use them or, otherwise, ask for GIPBE. --Vituzzu (talk) 00:43, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Vituzzu: We don't use an anonymization service. We have an own IP network 217.114.220.64/26 in the range you blocked (217.114.208.0/20). Another customer of this data center provider has also an own network in this big range and offers an anonymization service with e.g. exit node IP 217.114.213.19. That is no reason to block the big range and deny access for many subnets of this range! Please unblock 217.114.208.0/20 and block 217.114.213.16/29 (the range from the open proxy). --Tofour (talk) 10:30, 9. January 2017‎ (UTC)

School block on our IP

Hi Vituzzu, we got blocked from posting anything on wikis and even making accounts, we have a school page to update and would kindly like to be unblocked. "Your IP address is in a range which has been blocked on all wikis. The block was made by Vituzzu (meta.wikimedia.org). The reason given is de facto open proxy.

Bad range block: 23.227.160.0/19

Hi Vituzzu, you blocked a range (23.227.160.0/19) that covers my personal and private proxy 23.227.160.112 (clonca.andreas-borchert.de). I did not notice this for quite some time period as I always work through my account but I got hit by the block when I tried to interwiki-link a Commons page to a Wikipedia article. Please note that this is a range of co-located and virtual servers. If there is one bad host, please block that one but not the entire range as this hits innocent people like me.

Hi Vituzzu, I rather not create an account and the VPS I use is dedicated...somehow using it as a vpn connection says it's banned here

Hi/Allo du Québec (j'ai vu que tu peux communiquer en français, cela m'arrive si peu que je vais essayer)

Je loue un serveur personnel et personne d'autre que moi possède cet "hostname"/IP, il a été créé pour moi par la compagnie ou je paies grâce aux merveilleux services offerts qui serait un bordel à gérer par moi-même localement et j'obtiens une couche d'anonymité (partielle évidemment) car je peux m'y connecter par OpenVPN. Je ne sais pas qui dans le "range" de mon IP a causé des problèmes, mais je ne devrais pas être punis pour des clients de cette compagnie qui agisse de manière incorrecte. Je fais très peu de corrections, environ 5 par années donc, je ne vois pas l'avantage de me faire yet another account, t'sais? (Après 20 ans sur Internet, il me faut un fichier texte encrypté pour y inscrire tout mes comptes et mots de passe). SVP considère de débloquer mon serveur.

Merci, Un Québécois sans mauvaise atittude


My IP address has been blocked

Sorry to bother you, but my IP address was blocked by you for using VPN. I am aware of the use of VPN is illegal here in Wikipedia, but I have a reasonable reason for this. I don't know if you understand that in People's Republic of China, the country that I live in, has been blocking Wikipedia for years on end, so it's impossible for me to edit Wiki pages without a VPN software. I hope you know the difficulty here and unblock my IP address as soon. I'll appreciate it. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by 怡景小学 (talk)

@怡景小学: you seem to be eligible for GIPBE, which you can ask at that link. --Vituzzu (talk) 00:41, 9 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ciao sono il "leader" del team di sviluppo che sta creando freeDroid OS.

La prima versione verrà sviluppata solamente dal mio team per "dettare" le linee guida, mentre tutte le altre ovviamente saranno sviluppate dalla community

Vorrei creare una pagina su wikipedia per progetto

Posso farlo?

é la prima volta che provo a scrivere una pagina quindi penso di fare molti errori

Blocked IP

Hello there Vituzzu. I'm writing this to inform you of a block in an IP address I'm connecting from. There seems to be a block around my area and I can't edit using my account. I've been able to do so for the last several months now while I was away. But when I returned home, it said that the IP address I'm using have been blocked until 2020. I do believe it is a mistake on your behalf and hope for an unblock of the IP address. The reason that is given is "leaky colo + lots of spam at 128.199.242.223". I would respectfully ask that you would give a proper explanation regarding this block and if it is possible to unblock registered users from this IP address. It said the range of the block is 128.199.0.0/16. I do hope that this issue will be solved swiftly. Thank you for taking your time to read this.

Range block 91.9.96.0/19

Hello Vituzzu,

I believe that you globally blocked the range 91.9.96.0/19 with an expiration date of 20 November 2016. My notes do not indicate the starting date, and I cannot find the log entry. If you recall the circumstances, I would appreciate any information you can give me. It may have been globally blocked user Tobias Conradi, operating in iawiki as various IPs in that range. My concern is that the same user has changed to a new Internet Service Provider and is again active in iawiki.

Unblock Request

Hi, I'm a newer wikipedia user and editor who only edits wikipedia for a hobby I have where I edit election information boxes and screenshot the changes, never actually saving the edits. Occasionally I add pictures of politicians to wikipedia. In both pictures that were not explicitly mine I specified that I did not know the particular copyright information of the image. However, it appears my last image has driven me to be blocked from wikipedia. Because I never mean any harm and I don't intend to publish any of these images that I add to the site. I also promise to never upload an image that wasn't mine to the site again. Could I please be unblocked from the site? Here is my information page:

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Preferences

The IP block range is 216.244.64.0/19 and the IP blocked is 216.244.82.18.

Thank you.

Block suddenly affecting me

I was editing the Mass Effect: Andromeda page on Wikipedia on my account (since the place I am at right now is affected by an IP block on all unregistered users), and suddenly, just when I was making another edit, this happened.

"Your IP address is in a range which has been blocked on all wikis.

The block was made by Vituzzu (meta.wikimedia.org). The reason given is leaky colo + open proxy at 198.7.62.129.

Your current IP address is 198.7.62.204, and the blocked range is 198.7.56.0/21. Please include all above details in any queries you make."

This block didn't impact the previous 300 or so edits I've made from the same location in the last year or so (and the last 5 edits or so I made from the same place I'm sitting right now about an hour ago), but suddenly, it does. I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but is this an issue on my side or Wikipedia's side? And what can I do if it's from my side? I haven't had any problems before.

Bonjour et permettez-moi de me présenter : je suis Claude Piard, jadis contributeur sous le pseudo de Claude PIARD aujourd’hui quasi-banni dans des conditions pour le moins contestables. Et vous êtes mon ultime recours pour dénoncer des dérives nuisibles in fine à la réputation de Wikepdia. J'ai en effet déjà tenté d'alerter le CAR qui s'est déclaré incompétent puis fais appel récemment aux bureaucrates où mes messages sur leur PdD, revertés dans les délais les plus brefs par Habertrix, n'entrent même plus suite à une prise de contrôle que n'approuverait probablement pas la CNIL. Mais ce genre de manœuvre risquée est bien révélateur en soi de l'urgence qu'il y a pour certain(e)s de "cacher les poussières sous le tapis".

Excusez-moi donc de vous ramener loin en arrière. En novembre 2013 Litlok est intervenu sur la PaS pour TI d’un article consacré à l’ « Attitude des juifs sous le régime nazi » pour suggérer son transfert dans la catégorie Recherche en histoire de Wikiversité, ce que j’ai fait le 6 janvier 2014 non sans provoquer de réactions de Lgd/Alginatus, longtemps sous simple IP.

Deux ans plus tard, en octobre 2016 la fausse manoeuvre d’un collègue et ami qui a rapatrié par erreur les travaux résultant de l'évolution de cet article sur Wikiversité a été prétexte au procès le plus rapide de l’histoire wikipédienne. Un RA pour « désorganisation de l’encyclopédie » initié par Heddryin à mon encontre déposé le 22 octobre à 12 heures 46 a abouti à mon blocage indéfini le 24 octobre à 18 heures 41, sanction prononcée par Lomita – après une large consultation certes – aux motifs allégués de « WP-POINT, meatpuppetry et contournement de décision communautaire », la décision étant appliquée par Starus. Le RA initial a été clos dès le 23 par la même Lomita à 9 heures 33 – soit 15 heures après son ouverture – pour « conflit d’édition » trois minutes exactement après le dépôt de mon argumentaire, la discussion se poursuivant ensuite uniquement sur le BA entre administrateurs où celui-ci est ignoré.

Mes tentatives d’appel au RA puis au CaR sont rapidement éludés avec pour seul effet le blocage de mon IP (2A01:E35:2E8F:19D0:E574:9CCA:1C5C:7825) et l’effacement de ma page présentation ainsi que sa PdD probablement trop compromettantes pour mes détracteurs. Depuis d’épisodiques tentatives de modestes interventions lors d’éphémères déblocages de mon IP se traduisent par son reblocage immédiat par Lomita au seul prétexte du test du canard, empêchant ainsi toute remise en cause de sa décision. Et actuellement ma détermination à faire rétablir l’exactitude des faits me vaut en RA une proposition de bannissement de la part d’Heggesipe. L’IP flottante de mon téléphone me permet néanmoins de porter à votre connaissance cette situation sur laquelle je reste prêt à fournir tous les renseignements complémentaires utiles. A cette fin, et faute d'autres moyens, mon adresse e-mail était accessible via mon ancienne page Claude PIARD. Celle-ci est certes effacée et je suppose que vous avez les outils nécessaires pour la ré-ouvrir. Néanmoins je me permets de vous la confirmer : crjpiard@free.fr

Merci d’avoir pris le temps de me lire et bonne semaine. --Claude PIARD (talk) 16:57, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Cette version archivée avant effacement de ma page de discussion confirme et explicite ce qui précède. Elle démontre également que j’ai épuisé tous les recours avant de vous solliciter. Sans résultats autre que provoquer une demande de bannissement. Indifférence générale ? Complot ? Quoiqu’il en soit le remplacement du respect des principes fondateurs et des recommandations écrites par le concept de « décision communautaire » ( i.e. « au soviet ») a de quoi inquiéter pour l’avenir de Wikipédia francophone--Claude PIARD (talk) 09:46, 20 April 2017 (UTC).[reply]

Request for the IP blockade exception

Hi,Vituzzu. I was frequently blocked by Wikipedia because of my IP address is regard as a web host provider. When I want to edit the pages through my computer, it made lots of inconvenience to me.

I was excepted to the IP blockade in Chinese Wikipedia in the past. When I creating new articles in Chinese Wikipedia, the blockade made me cannot link those articles to the related articles in other wikis. Also, when I need to improve the articles in other languages Wikipedia, it created lot of inconvenience to me because I can only submit changes by my phone. So I hope that you can unblock me ASAP, thanks! --Momocalbee (talk) 11:07, 21 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong link for global Open proxy blocks

Hi, I just would like to let you know that on May 4th somebody changed the link for "Open proxy" description in Special:GlobalBlockList. At 00:12 it was "m:NOP" correctly, while at 11:15 it became just "NOP" [4] and in different wikis the link leads to various unrelated local articles named "NOP". Maybe you know how to revert this change. Regards, Michał Sobkowski (talk) 13:22, 5 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Question about the block of TOR IPs

Hello Vituzzu, recently I tried to edit a de:Wikipedia article using TOR... Well, you can imagine what happened. I remembered having read somewhere that Wikimedia does block TOR IP addresses with the reason that proxy IPs are often used to do vandalism etc.. Now my question to you as steward/admin/etc. is: Why does this affect Wikimedia (project) logged in users? As far as I know you can log in and edit pages as logged in user even if your IP address is blocked (at least it was written somewhere in de:wp), but obviously this does not apply to TOR users. I can imagine that TOR users could cause more than some trouble, but when the user is known (because he is logged in) I think he should be trusted (same as the not TOR users with blocked IP).

Sorry for that noobish question, I know that you have a lot to do and are spammed with IP (un)block complains... I hope I do not waste your time :)

Block Reason?

Hi Vituzzu, can you explain why you blocked me? I saw something about an IP proxy or something or other (gibberish to me) but I'm assuming it's because I started using the Opera browser's built-in VPN. Is it really a problem for me to use a VPN for my own internet security/privacy? It certainly shouldn't be. TylerDurden8823 (talk) 02:12, 18 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Diritti utente

Escludendo i due progetti in interlingua (la lingua la conosco abbastanza e sto cercando di coinvolgere gli altri utenti di ia.wp anche se al momento solo uno ha fatto qualche modifica effettiva). Non ho intenzione di collezione flag nè questo è il mio scopo ho semplicemente optato per questa strada (chiedere il flag in un numero molto contenuto di wiki) per poter iniziare a dare una mano nella cancellazione di pagine soggette a vandalismo prima di fare richiesta come global sysop perché pensavo che visto che è passato solo un mese da quando sono diventato gr fosse necessario più tempo prima di essere gs comunque vedrò di fare la richiesta per diventarlo nelle prossime settimane. Comunque ogni richiesta che faccio non ha secondi fini ma solo fini pratici: il flag di amministratore in questi casi l'ho richiesto:

  • Su ia.wiktionary e ia.Wikibooks per cercare di far ripartire i due progetti anche dal lato tecnico del software e degli accessori, oltre che a poter incitare gli altri utenti di ia.wp a partecipare a questi progetti.
  • Su chr.wiktionary l'ho richiesto per poter oltre che cancellare pagine segnate come spam per poter fare delle sostituzioni ,che credo servano per migliorare i vari lemmi, tramite awb e il flag in questo caso credo che dopo i tre mesi non lo rinnoverò ma mi serviva solo ora per poter praticare queste correzioni (come potresti aver notato io non mi soffermo su un singolo progetto nè su una lingua ma cerco di essere il più globale possibile facendo quello che posso in tutti i progetti Wikimedia e non solo come membro del SWMT ma anche per poter dare una mano ai progetti anche in cose che sembrano piccole ma possono essere di aiuto (creazione di categorie in maniera corretta, correzioni nelle voci nei redirect ecc. ) --Samuele2002 (Talk!) 22:03, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ragioni del blocco IP

Ciao Vituzzu, sono RedDead720, un utente di it.wikipedia da circa due anni e mezzo. Oggi, mentre cercavo di fare una modifica, ho notato un avviso che mi informava che il mio indirizzo IP era stato bloccato su tutte le wiki dalle 14:10 del 4 agosto 2017 alle 14:10 dell'11 agosto 2017 per Long-term abuse. Il mio IP attuale è 151.37.159.189, e l'intervallo bloccato è 151.37.0.0/16. Cercando un po' ho notato che tale IP era stato incluso nella lista di possibili sockpuppet di un utente problematico, quindi credo si sia trattato di un malinteso, anche visto il gran numero di messaggi simili al mio su questa pagina. Comunque vorrei sapere perché sono stato bloccato e se è possibile sbloccarmi, visto che credo di non meritare il blocco. Grazie mille in anticipo. --RedDead720 (talk) 11:39, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

FYI and thanks

Thank you for your comments on Steward requests/Checkuser That's all been handled now so this is not a request, merely for your information. This was not merely fishing for the identity of Sci-fi-; Michael skater may have been checked with the first sockpuppet investigation that he filed; at that point, none of the later-identified socks had edited, so it would come up clean. That skater request was under a different master name (Psychicbias) , and was thus, at the time the next request was filed, not the same report (as Blastikus). The next report did not mention Michael skater. What a checkuser would see was a pile of socks that were identical users. Was it noticed that Michael skater was one of them? Apparently not. There were other accounts also not noted. What we know now is that, in fact, Michael skater created an army of false flag sock puppets, impersonations, as an attack on the user he had complained about. He is probably an LTA, w:User:Mikemikev. (Previously not globally disruptive; now disruptive on three wikis.) --Abd (talk) 19:11, 23 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Help design a new feature to stop harassing emails

Hi there,

The Anti-Harassment Tools team plans to start develop of a new feature to allow users to restrict emails from new accounts. This feature will allow an individual user to stop harassing emails from coming through the Special:EmailUser system from abusive sockpuppeting accounts.

We’re inviting you to join the discussion because you have experience dealing with abusive sockpuppeting accounts and you work across many wikis. We think that your insights will help us build a better feature.

You can leave comments on this discussion page or send an email to the Anti-Harassment Tools team.

It is important to hear from a broad range of people who are interested in the design of the tool, so we hope you join the discussion and let us know how it would work best for you.

The issue and missing sides 2

Hi,

Thanks for leaving note on my mr wikipedia talk page. First of all, I wish you take note of my detail breifing (missing side 1) in two immidiate sections on User talk:Bishdatta, if you have not done so till now. User:Bishdatta has been member of wmf board of trustee and currently is on the Funds Dissemination Committee. You read them and essential part I will give you latter in this discussion if needed. Most important you need to take note is, it is not gender bias issue as one of the grant proposer trying to make on talk page; this aspect is explained in detail to user User:Bishdatta on her talk page.

Please also do study and take note that blocks from Marathi Wikipedia are in fewest possible numbers compared to any other wikipedia community and usually are of smallest possible duration. We are usually inclusivist for Marathi language people to the best possible level, which you will not find on any of other wikis and I will give you ennumber of illustrations towards that. If at all any blocks are required we prefer limited edit filters for essential reasons over entire block rather we strive more for cultural improvement rather than blocks. But some times it takes time to device apropriate filters too in those cases at times we need to resort to temporary blocks.

While one of the policy page is blocked currently to avoid vandalism, rest of village pumps are working. There is one special village pump on mr wikipeda to review and comment on sysop activity. besides at personal level I do have my own user subpage where other users can criticize with full freedom of expression - and I have been criticised at times and those criticisms have been taken in good spirit . Rather it is Marathi Wikipedia or Marathi language forums you will find me viceforus supporter and implementer of freedom of expression. And I can cite ampple of examples.

One of the page which is blocked is checked by another sysop. Some one who knowns Marathi language will understand on Marathi wikipedia that we both the beurocrats do not take each others sides just like that but we do cross check the various factors in indipendant point of view. For example you take latest main page article mr:दिवाळी is mainly wrtten by a woman editor and on talk page of the article we both beurocrats discussed the pros and cons of content in very different perspectives. So some one is trying to make out that Marathi wikipedia is closed thing of a single beurocrat is not right.

The issue and the missing side 3

The next problem what we are currently dealing at mr wikipedia, which I have explained on talk page of User talk:Bishdatta is problem of vicious environment caused on mr wikipeda due to attempts of fund farming and syndication by vested interest to get wmf funds, which wmf wishes to distribute liberally.

Since frankly like other language wiki communities our mr community also ignored issue of who is applying for funds and whether they are being used for Marathi language or not. See discussion on hi:विकिपीडिया:चौपाल they have been taken for ride by other language people for fund farming by placing just a proposal on meta. Tell me is it really reasonable if I place a fund proposal for Italian language which I never worked for. More over funny thing is some of them are asking for funds in the name of expat community of India origin staying in USA. Many of India origin people may be earning more than many of local USA. Rather than asking for funds they should be supporting with funds. Now this happened with Hindi Wikipedia. Now with these proposers they are from well to do Indian metropolitan cities where in it is not too difficult to rais funds locally. Still if they want to collect funds from wmf cause they are less monitored so be it, we had no issue no competition we want to do only encyclopedic work. But unfortunately some of these fund seekers are getting involved in infighting and they are using mr wiki village pump to do this infighting is some thing trouble some.

See in India you show some carrots you get atleast some supportes for every thing and anything. If we leave this to democratic forces which wikipedia is not then syndicates will keep enjoying fund farming but environment on local wikis will remain vicious. To avoid that Undersigned had to reign in with a new policy asking for, what we have decided to do is ask fund seekers to write more number of Marathi lanuage encyclopedic paragraphs, and support from simmiller more number of encyclopedic paragraph writer - so we can keep people of dubious credentials who make very few edits to show that they or on mr-wikipedia and get involved in fund seeking syndicate. the second new rule is to take marathi language professor or teacher of their choice as mentor / guide so there will be some minimal level of direction and sending wmf funds for given purpose will have a proper cross check. While I have started the policy rather than leaving it to mercy of fund seeking syndicates I am involving entire Marathi language seniors including professors and senior encyclopedic writers from across state sans vested interest and people with conflict of intrest and they will redraft Marathi wikipedia policy and the same will be communicated to funds dessimination committee of wmf in due course.

The funds seekers who want to prove their credibility will accept the policy; the rest of them are going to create some level of noise, that we have to anticipate and bear with the same until they fall in the line.

One of the proposer of grant request under discussion has started her wiki carreer only with grant pages ! Let that be. While drafting new policy they can not be considered since it amounts to conflict of interest and unfair accounting practice. So until an effective limited purpose filter is deviced the proposers are blocked for limited time. Secondly Marathi Wikipedia is already having a policy that non - Marathi language people can not take part in policy making on Marathi wikipedia nor they can use non-Marathi language liberally on talk pages. So freedom from blocking is just notional for the user you are discussing; where as it is very much a question of project indipendance for Marathi Wikipedia community.

Last but not least here let me cite you one more anecdote or anology is recent example of Russia government taking undue interest in USA election. I could not have blocked one user having conflict of interest and leave another unblocked specially when one of the village pump on Marathi wikpedia is being abused , the abusers would get more chance to increase abuse level with even unseemingly unintentional action of the blocked user -hence the need for preemptive action arose. It is simmiller thing about the user reffered by you has prima facia conflict of interest and is from non-Marathi language background, to leave any chance. At the face value it may seem preemptive at this juncture, until a proper edit filter comes into place we did not have any other option but to take the said action as a temporary measure. As earlier said we at mr wikipedia on our own as part of free culture have used blocking to the least.

This unfortunate phase has come, but will not last long for sure. We know our way ahead. We belive in good stewardsship the way you belive in, and expect wmf funds are spent with due care and healthy environment is maintained on our project. Thanks for your concern as steward.

Warm regards

Hello Vituzzu, I'm sysop form Spanish Wikipedia. This case is related to the block of 94.242.252.45, because in Spanish Wikipedia someone wikihounding several users including me. This vandal used the next IPs in the last days:

The user behind these IPs is the same: his preferences are sci-fi and hero movies or TV series. If anyone reverts him, the anon writes the edit summary with threats or insults against the rollbackers or patrolers. The anon is now against an es.wikipedia user called Adrian silvera, falsely reporting as "vandal" because Adrian silvera reverts the bad editions. Others users are victims of this anon, and he recurres with open proxies and another forms of evasion and bully repeteadly. Exists any solution about this?

Warum werde ich blockiert ?

Hallo Vituzzi, ich spreche und schreibe leider nur deutsch. Seit 5 Jahren bin ich Wikipedia/Commons Bearbeiter, habe in dieser Zeit immer den Vorschriften entsprechend korrekt und ohne jede Beanstandungen gearbeitet. Warum werde ich jetzt plötzlich blockiert ? Du schreibst wegen „hosting service with open suchas 178.162.193.233“. Außerdem soll meine E-Mail-Adresse in meinem Benutzerkonto nicht stimmen oder nicht vorhanden sein. Dort ist aber alles korrekt angegeben, auch als ich im Sommer meine E-Mail-Adresse geändert habe. Du gibst auch an „178.162.198.4 und 178.162.192.0/19“. Was soll daran falsch oder unkorrekt sein ? Ich bitte um Antwort in deutsch. Gruß--Bärwinkel,Klaus (talk) 12:04, 24 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Being blocked today while using VPN

Hi Vituzzu, I am an active user in Arabic Wikipedia, and currently travelling abroad for few days. I used VPN today morning to access my account and edit some articles, when you blocked me for accessing through unfavourable IP. My account name is Yahia.Mokhtar, and the IP that was used by the VPN was 66.228.39.143 and I was using iPhone's SAFARI browser. Could you please unblock me today in order to resume editing, and preferably if you make me exempted from IP since Wikipedia is block here in this area.

Да, было дело, выходил на проект Вики с отцовского ноутбука и через другого провайдера Билайн, ещё и пароль ввёл неправильно. Я всё понял, постараюсь использовать для редактирования важных данных энциклопедии только домашний компьютер. Не знал, что эта система так сильно чувствительна к системным ошибкам. Думаю, что для снятия блокировки вполне бы хватило подтверждения через электронную почту polirov-anton@yandex.ru Разблокируйте, пожалуйста, учётную запись, если причина только в этом.

Hello Vituzzu, why on earth have you blocked me in Wikipedia? And without any communication or reasoning why you did so? I absolutely want an explanation from you and ask for an immediat unblocking of my account the my home german Wikipedia and all the others as well!

I notice you blocked me for a single comment that I made on the talk page of the Two Minute Hate, about bias in the article.

If you did your homework, which apparently you would find this IP is a shared address in the National Library of Scotland, not some Russian troll farm. Oh, but I keep on forgetting, the Russians are behind all the messes that the west creates perfectly well on its own e.g. Brexit, Trump etc. Remember to check for those pesky Russians under your bed before you go to sleep tonight.

Folk like you remind me exactly why I edit Wikipedia anonymously now.

I'd need to investigate further but I cannot rely upon tests done by someone explicitly trolling. You'd probably better ask someone -hopefully less nervous/more polite than you- from the tech staff to write to stewards(_AT_)wikimedia · org.

Hi user:vituzzu. Due to my complaint about misusing of adminstrative powers on marathi Wikipedia the former admin Mahitgar seems inactive since than. Since Mahitgar is the only administrator on marathi Wikisource there are many improvements left on that wiki.

Blocking of Борис Теодоров on bgwiki

Hi! I'm curious why was Борис Теодоров blocked on bgwiki? Was it identified as someone's sock probably, or do they have now deleted bad edits on Meta that I can't see (as they don't seem to have logged in anywhere else). I'm asking because in the last year or two we have one (or perhaps a group of) particularly persistent troll(s), who seem to constantly change roles with endless socks, playing either a typical bad vandal or a Good Samaritan—and I wondered if that wasn't one of those incarnations.

Sorry for replying in English here (and not being Vituzzu, but just wanted to help out), but your IP-address and its range are part of webhosting of CHOOPA. Your hotel probably makes use of them for their WiFi service (thats my guess). From this range probably comes a lot of abuse in the form of spam and vandalism.

Why am I blocked?

Why exactly am I blocked? I haven't even done anything wrong!

Abd

I noticed you deleted his study which is a good thing! He has incorrectly put me on his study. See my edit here. Abd has now ported his study to his personal website [8]. How do I go about getting this removed? I am not the person he claims I am. According to another IP who has complained Abd is also attacking Wikipedia users on his website [9]. Is this behaviour to be tolerated?! MrRowser (talk) 22:27, 26 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the mess. See my latest response in the deletion request he linked, which explains. What he writes here is simply not true, he was not accused of being Anglo Pyramidologist, only of being "possibly involved," which from what he wrote in the Request comment is stronger than "possible," it's now likely. Please notice MrRowser's global contributions; from them, when he was originally mentioned, it was because he was an SPA on Wikiversity with a very narrow interest matching AP socks, who only edited for a short time with narrow purpose. He was not accused of any misbehavior, and he is not listed in the compiled list of socks that is still hosted here. However, he has now revealed much that leads to very strong suspicion, at least of off-wiki coordination, enough to file a checkuser request. Signs:
  • A strong interest in getting rid of the AP documentation, entirely, not merely in correcting it.
  • A characterization of studies designed to avoid personal "attack" as "attacks." I am studying, elsewhere, the history of the problems with Cold fusion on Wikipedia, and the page pointed to is a list of edits by that one user to that article. It includes his identified sock puppets, so that history was shown. He had sock puppets, it's that simple -- but I don't think the document is an "attack." I could, in fact, within policy, actually attack WMF users off-wiki, but that is not what I'm up to. I describe and document, first, and often that is all I do. Some people consider documentation an attack, which I find ... strange. Are they hiding something? Is very public information, public so that any person can look at exactly what I'm looking at, somehow private and off-limits?
  • The mention of Ben Steigmann on the RfD page. This is a minor editor, not of any wide interest, but of high interest to Anglo Pyramidologist. I protected Ben Steigmann from retaliation by Anglo Pyramidologist, who had created impersonation socks, as shown in the deleted study, but I protect wiki users routinely, from disruption like that. AP socks, now locked, threatened retaliation, which has since appeared off-wiki and cross-wiki.
  • The claim that the study is incorrect, without specifics, is common. After over three months, MrRowser is the only specific complaint to appear. And he was not actually claimed to be a sock. I now strongly suspect it from his behavior today.
  • The already identified socks might be getting stale, so perhaps you could look? AP has recently been taking extra precautions against checkuser identification, so I wouldn't be surprised if you don't find anything ... but he does make mistakes. Or should I file a checkuser request? I expect to be away for a couple of days.
Thanks for all your work. --Abd (talk) 00:26, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Abd you included my username in your LTA study and you have been writing about me on your website. I have been emailed what you have been doing, you have now deleted the evidence on your website which is very dishonest because you are now running scared. You wrote to another IP on the undeletion request that your study only included "blocked" users, but that is a lie because it included many unblocked IPS! You have included innocent people in your study such as myself and other IPs who are not socks. I just told you it is defamation and within 20 minutes of my reply you deleted it from your website. You have been accusing innocent people of being Anglopyramidologist, a user you have a vendetta against for allegedly creating your Rationalwiki article. As the IP pointed out in the un-deletion request, you originally wrote here [10], Friends and Enemies. You appear to being using this website to attack users you have personal issues against, your "enemies". I also do not understand your other LTA study [11], it lists socks of AngloPyramidologist which are found here [12] active from 2011-2015 on Wikipedia but then you added about 50 other accounts unrelated to AngloPyramidologist that were active on Wikiversity in 2017. Your study is not supported by solid check-user evidence and you appear to be making false connections. You are not a steward so you should not be conducting these investigations. AngloPryamidologist was a sockpuppeteer but I do not see evidence he was any of those accounts in 2017.

I just read over what the various IPS have written about all this. Admins have complained about your behaviour [13], you have also accused innocent IPs of being AngloPyramidologist which they have denied [14], [15]. You have sent another Wikipedia user harassing emails [16] and you defame him on your website [17], [18] on several articles. According to another admin you spoke to there have been numerous complaints about your behaviour. The same admin on that talk-page says the Wikimedia foundation have received "numerous legitimate complaints about your activity over a long period of time." As this IP wrote [19], you are using these "LTA" studies to "defame" innocent people. You then link to it on your personal website.

You also have an obsession with claiming different people are "AP" a target of yours, as another IP pointed out this is extreme paranoia. I can assure you none of us are that stupid user from years ago!! I do not know what the official rule on off-site harassment is, but as you have been harassing different Wikipedia users on your website I will email the Wikimedia Foundation and see what they say about this. You obviously need to be blocked because you have no intention of stopping. MrRowser (talk) 02:49, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The IP in the un-deletion request linked to this [20], you were banned for "harassment, now attacking rationalwiki users on his personal blog". These "LTA" studies is a clever method for you to attack your "enemies". They should not be hosted on this website. MrRowser (talk) 03:01, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
There was a [21] consensus to delete all "LTA" studies by user Abd a few weeks ago as he is hosting those to attacks specific users and he is not a check-user. Can you delete the two that have not been deleted, [22], [23]. Abd has now been indefinitely blocked on Wikiversity for disruption. 86.132.237.70 20:42, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The above is Anglo Pyramidologist by the duck test (and so was MrRowser, who had not previously been accused). Who else cares? He found mobile IP he could use, see his Wikiversity edit, Steigmann is his favorite target, and the others I requested global blocks for. Let me know if you have any questions, Vituzzu.

You are blocked by the autoblock since the IP address you used is hard blocked. It appears this is a web hosting range and has been abused by some other LTA: Special:Contributions/178.162.192.0/19 (not necessarily the contribs listed here), so the range has been blocked to prevent abuse - even if you didn't edit with this range. You should be able to edit if you visit directly from your internet service and not login from any VPN/proxy/webhost. Alternatively stewards may choose to soften the block or give you ipblock exempt. -★- PlyrStar93. Message me. 22:03, 28 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Vituzzu, I have the same problem as reported by many people above. I am blocked with a different IP, I have the reason "hosting service with open proxies such as 178.162.193.233.". I have more than 3000 edits and I want to go on, I’m here and I’m helping the Wikipedia since 5 years!! What can/must I do? Could you please unblock me? I had the same problem already two weeks ago, but it disappeared quickly. Thanks for your help.--Rattiu (talk) 10:23, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Rattiu: Try disabling Kaspersky VPN or any other similar services. It looks like you are not autoblocked now. -★- PlyrStar93. Message me. 17:28, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You may not know, that Deutsche Telekom is the main provider for millions of Germans. --Eingangskontrolle (talk) 18:42, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I‘ve cleared both ranges 46.101.128.0/17, 139.59.0.0/16 (Digital Ocean, Inc.) locally on de.wp, answering Eingangskontrolle‘s complaint. These are not open proxies, there is no use in longterm blocking them. Besides, „leaky colon“ is not an acceptable blocking reason. Regards, —MBq (talk) 19:53, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Page deletion

Hello. You deleted User:Abd/LTA/Anglo Pyramidologist a few weeks ago but another user has noticed that a subpage (User:Abd/LTA/Anglo Pyramidologist/User data) and the organising page (User:Abd/LTA) are still there. Could they be deleted under the same policy too? Cheers. Green Giant (talk) 16:52, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That user "noticing" previously made a fuss about those pages, using other accounts or IP, this wasn't new and Vituzzu already decided to keep those pages. The user is an obvious and deceptive Anglo Pyramidologist sock. However, those pages were written as working studies toward an LTA report on the sock master with over 200 identified socks, and I have all the data elsewhere. It does not need to be here. The page histories (like the deleted page) showed just how disruptive this user was. But I will not object to a decision to delete; the pages being here will continue to be a magnet for this user. He never gives up. Thanks. --Abd (talk) 22:07, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

String of spambots worth recording for posterity

Not sure whether you have noticed however, we have had a string of spambots back on site, some just for meta, they can from several swarms of /24 predominantly, though some somewhat bigger. This happened back a couple of years ago where the same swarm of /24s hits us. If you want to capture those to be recorded or managed by some other means,, you can find the IP ranges in Special:Log/block/billinghurst  — billinghurst sDrewth 12:40, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Rangeblock

A range block going several years into the future makes no sense, as the lease must be renewed each year. Block the proxies, and don't use a range block. (Special:Contributions/45.33.131.7) — Jeblad 12:51, 26 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked?

Dear Vituzzu, could you please give me a plausible reason for blocking me? I am an active contributor to Wikipedia since 2006 and did not understand the reason why I was blocked without any prior notice (I did NOT commit any fault to be blocked). Please, unblock me so as I can keep contributing. Femme Fatale (talk) 14:36, 6 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Harassment cross-wiki

Hi Vituzzu,

I'm an admin on fr-wp. There is an user banned from fr-wiki (by a collegiate decision), Olivier Hammam, who is harassing me on various wiki (and by email…), by notifying me again and again, even if I asked him to stop that. He's now also blocked on en-wp and de-wp, and I requested to block him on nl-wp (link) and it-wp (link), where he also notified me today.

Is it possible to do something? He doest not contribute on all of these Wikipedias. I don't know what can be done to stop him doing that on the 280+ wikipedias.

Best regards, Jules78120 (talk) 16:48, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Source conflict

Hello. I ask you this question since you are an admin. I thought you can help me. A patrol from Turkish wiki is preventing me from deleting a sourceless section, they cited a source that does not support what they wrote. Then I updated the section with quotes directly from the persons that are related there, cited their interviews and updated the section but the patrol is still preventing me. Where can I file my complainment? Who can help us?

even more interesting is, I used the source they used and took something they did not take from the source and added it to the section, they still refuse to let the section change. When the patrol wants he uses that source, when I use the same source he/she prevents me from adding info to the section.

Who is your equivalent in Turkish wiki? --Sir artur (talk) 21:05, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

EDIT: That said, that Turkish patrol is abusing his power. I even launched a protest there and unfortunately I vandalised the site in order to attract attention from the officials, no one gave a damn sh.t. They are publishing a content that is unsupported by the source which itself is a distortion. I update the section with sources, he/she prevents me from doing so. They are being biased. I raised the same issue in english wiki, opened a discussion on the talk page and waited for 6 months, no one raised a counter-arguement and I deleted the section. Now the same patrol comes and reverts the section without any arguement. --Sir artur (talk) 21:10, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
