How we will see unregistered users

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

COIBot XWiki report format issue

Hello. COIBot seems no to like https for a reason and keeps adding the protocol as a Link to blacklist. See e.g. User:COIBot/XWiki/jennycasino.com. Is this something you can fix on COIBot config? Thank you. Best regards, —MarcoAurelio (talk) 11:04, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

@MarcoAurelio no, that is something that gets picked up due to wrong formatted links in edits which I should manually kill in the db, and try again to stop detecting in the bot. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} (en: U, T) 04:14, 24 March 2022 (UTC)

XWiki report page not updating

Hello. Hope that everything is okay. User:COIBot/XWiki hasn't been updated since June 20. If you have a minute, could you please see what may be the cause? Thank you. Best regards, —MarcoAurelio (talk) 16:47, 10 July 2022 (UTC)

@MarcoAurelio, it’ll be next week, sorry. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} (en: U, T) 14:34, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

the poking via User:COIBot/Poke does not work for the last few weeks. is the poking still activated? or am i doing anything wrong? -- seth (talk) 22:23, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

gudn tach!

if you don't have time at the moment: is it possible to get access to COIBot's database in order to make queries by myself? (i guess, i asked that already a few years ago, but i don't remember the answer, sorry.) -- seth (talk) 21:38, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

gudn tach!

can you make a prediction as to when you will have time to take care of said problem again? is there any way i can support you? -- seth (talk) 08:37, 12 November 2022 (UTC)

Notice of review of adminship

Hello Beetstra. In accordance with Meta:Administrators/Removal and because you have made fewer than ten logged administrator actions over the past six months, your adminship is under review at Meta:Administrators/Removal/October 2022. If you would like to retain your adminship, please sign there before October 08, 2022. Kind regards, MF-W 11:55, 1 October 2022 (UTC)

@MF-Warburg way more than ten. Can we please properly update the instructions, this does come back over and over. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} (en: U, T) 03:59, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

Where are the ten actions? I only see 6 edits to the spam blacklist. --MF-W 16:32, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

@MF-Warburg oops, I now see it is 6 months, I thought it was a year. Anyway, I’d prefer to keep as I do still work on it. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} (en: U, T) 03:59, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

That is of course no problem at all! Thanks for your work on the SBL. --MF-W 11:55, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

COIBot has fallen out of IRC

Hiya. If you have a chance, would you please put COIBot back into IRC and doing its business. I am not near a functioning SSH login at this time. Thanks if you can.  — billinghurst sDrewth 10:54, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

@Billinghurst I wasn’t either, i have a ‘new’ laptop, they changed bastion, and I have no time. Anyway, they are back up now. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} (en: U, T) 04:06, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
