RFC regarding fighting vandalism
Hi, I thought I should mention here that there is a RFC for enabling RC patrolling (=edit patrolling Recentchanges) happening in Misplaced Pages:Village pump (proposals)#Enable RC patrolling (aka patrolling for edits). Please take a look. Best Ladsgroup 14:44, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
Request for help
Hi there, I noticed a user has made a large number of disruptive edits but they don't appear to be intentional vandalism. Who would I go to to report this to be mass undo'd?
This is the user, who has changed the word 'season' to 'series' on many pages. https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Special:Contributions/113.210.60.97&target=113.210.60.97&dir=prev&offset=20231027041137 Poketama (talk) 09:38, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
- I'd take that to WP:AN if you think it needs a mass revert. But it looks like they're just complying with WP:ENGVAR to me. Your comment on their user page doesn't really accord with how we use those words in the UK. WaggersTALK 11:47, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
Multiple unregistered users vandalizing numerical data
Hello! I just caught word from a user post on the Brazil Wikiproject that several unregistered IP users are making minor vandalization edits to Brazilian population data and I'm not sure how to handle this. Some of these users include 168.0.48.88, 168.0.48.91, 45.173.185.4, and 168.0.50.64 (The rest can be seen in the edits reverted by Qmwnebrvtcyxuz). Why don't these kinds of edits get caught by the anti-vandalism systems we have in place? Also, how can i go I about warning these users and/or preventing them from continuing to vandalize if they continue? BaduFerreira (talk) 23:39, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
Discord Channel
Considering the popularity of the Wikimedia Discord, how would y'all feel about requesting a channel there? IRC seems pretty dead these days. Funnyfarmofdoom (talk to me) 19:29, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
