Rangeblocks

Re: Jimbo's talk

To be honest, it's not too difficult for those with the tools to determine whether a rangeblock would cause unnecessarily high collateral damage. Personally, I have denied many rangeblock requests after checking the activity of a range. Best ​—DoRD (talk)​ 12:43, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

My apologies - I see that you did run a check this time. However, given the limited scope of this vandal, wouldn't an edit filter or semi protection be less disruptive? ​—DoRD (talk)​ 12:51, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

I've just got back online and will have a look (I don't recall seeing much constructive from anons on that range, but maybe I've missed some). Note that this is a soft block; the spammer has been targeting the Marciano talk page too, for quite some time; and this range has a history of abuse. Materialscientist (talk) 20:55, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) I followed the link to see what new crime Materialscientist has committed. I have to admit that the intemperate language of the complainant just turned me off immediately: whatever the ins and outs of the complaint, going at it like that just weakens it and makes it look infantile. Just saying. DBaK (talk) 21:22, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

General notes to DoRD. CU scan is not supposed to be used for common IP rangeblocks. There is a tool showing range contribs that you can activate in preferences, but it is clumsy as it doesn't sort contribs by date. This one was much better, and I use it every time I rangeblock (your "this time" comment goes astray). This tool was great when it was maintained by various users at the Toolsever, but upon its recent migration to wmflabs it was restricted in scanning depth, to reduce the server load. I've talked to HelloAnnyong about this, xe said xe'll have a look. Ping'em if you are interested, and you should be. As to 172.56.0.0/18, it is extremely rare to have this and that complaints after my block. Fishy. Someone is hit, and you might have seen that in the CU scan (I have no history with users on that range). Materialscientist (talk) 23:28, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

I have to disagree with you. I'm not sure why you say that CU shouldn't be used for rangeblocks - busy ranges such as this should almost always be checked for collateral damage before blindly blocking them. At any rate, the only experience I have with this particular range is from the numerous account creation requests from the range that I've had to run checks for. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 01:12, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

It is simple: when admins issue regular IP rangeblocks they don't usually need to know about accounts on this range - the blocks either affect only IPs (softblock as in this case), or prevent account creation in the future (anonblock). Thus IP range contribution tools are sufficient (when they work). Materialscientist (talk) 01:28, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Even when it works as designed, the range contribution tool is very limited, particularly when dealing with wide, busy ranges, and it is useless for determining appropriate rangeblock length. The tool may be sufficient for a narrow, lightly-trafficked range, but when you get to busy /18s and /16s, it is decidedly not sufficient. One only has to spend a short time processing the ACC CheckUser queue to understand what I'm talking about. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 02:46, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

Please excuse me if my comments overlap with DoRD, I read this before he responded. I also disagree that CU is not to be used for collateral checks. Of course if we are talking about a /24 of a semi-dynamic US ISP then it really isn't required, but when we jump to the MAN /16 or /17 level, then a check is recommended especially if it's a mobile network because you will be affecting thousands of customers. The abuse needs to be proportional to the number of good edits, or higher. India, is a completely different story also, which I won't cover on WP:BEANS in this location. Far to often do I see 5-6 requests made at ACC in which are from the same /16 or /17, and I CU it and either get "Too many results to display anything, please narrow the range" or I can't make heads or tails of what the original block target is, risking letting them back in anyway. Also determining how big a range actually is as easy as grabbing DomainTools Whois and looking for the shortest range, comparing it with the CU results, and creating the narrowest block possible while hitting most of the abuse. Blocking administrators should really look at this information before they hit block, otherwise they could be targeting another ISP in another city also. I know we can't attain perfection on that, but I like to try. Disclaimer: I come here not because of Jimbo's talk, I don't watch it, but because I follow this talkpage, so I have no foreknowledge of the incidents at hand. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 04:19, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

I went and actually read the thread and came back to make one additional comment. If you look in the log for that range, you see I modified the block to say <!-- ACC ignore -->. That means the range was too big to block, and we could tell what was the original target, or can't tell the difference between one person or another. There is more I could say on this subject, but again WP:BEANS. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 04:23, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

(EC, yes, I didn't and don't know the range and used the history of edits).

DoRD and DeltaQuad, I think you misunderstand my comment and use CU scan to get range contributions from IPs. This is adequate for SPI cases or hard rangeblocks, but not for IP contributions, because those can be extracted from publicly available logs with a proper script, without and time and length limitations of CU logs (sorry if I'm telling the obvious, but ..). To imagine such a script, look here [1]. When this script was hosted at the Toolserver, results were paginated by sets of 50, and their number was enough for many months long evaluation. (I don't recall any limit there. Then the Toolserver died, and the results got limited to 30. We've lost functionality in many, many Toolserver tools, but this can be recovered, I believe.) Materialscientist (talk) 04:35, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

To speak about the current IP address we are dealing with, since 10 months ago, 153 requests have come in to WP:ACC. Also the range can't even be CU'd there are so many contributions to it. It means within the normal CU expiry time (won't state here) or less 5000 edits or log entries have been made from that range. Your edits that you are trying to block maybe cover 5-10% of that. So we are currently blocking 4500 legitimate edits, saying they need to create an account first. Furhtermore, the range is a mobile network, which would be the hardest to create a new account. Most people will give up before even starting. I think it's inappropriate for us to block such a large range for such a long time. If we absolutely need to stop the vandalism because it is taking a boat load of reverts, if all other options are exhausted, then ok for a 24-72 hour period to let things cool down. We can also do multiple smaller rangeblocks if needed. For example if you look at 172.56.32.0/22, there is someone who was adding spam (at least at glance) to talk pages. If we CU that /22, we find that yes, a lot of the logged out edits are the target of such blocks, but we also have several hundred user accounts, indicating a busy range. I personally would only block such a range for a short period of time. I just think there are more options than just blocking this whole /18, like maybe requesting an edit filter related to this range. If you would like some assistance in formulating a new rangeblock, I'd be happy to assist, but right now I don't exactly understand what your targeting. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 19:43, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

Ok. Unblocked. Let us see. There is one thing I don't understand - why do we AGF from any ACC requests coming from a blocked range, and evaluate the potentially productive activity from their number? Materialscientist (talk) 20:55, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

Because of the multiple people on a range, we tend to look for the identifying useragent that was targeted for the block. Sometimes that is impossible, or not a 100% match, so we can't figure out for sure if the person requesting the account is in fact the blocked user to complete certainty. This is why we AGF. The more someone socks, the harder it is for them to get through ACC. Could you restate your "evaluate the potentially productive activity from their number" question? I don't follow. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 03:36, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

changes to Michael Berube's wikipedia page

Hi-- I'm Michael Berube, and I've been having trouble-- here and elsewhere-- with someone who seems to have developed one of those unhealthy internet obsessions. To gauge by the talk page for the entry on me, it has something to do with Rebecca Schuman.

I don't write material for my wikipedia page-- I didn't know it existed for its first few years-- but because it is now part of my public profile, I try to keep it professional, so from time to time I check in to ward off vandalism. The recent changes about Regis High School, the war in Iraq, and my essay on the GRE seem to me inappropriate, to varying degrees. Much of the new material on my high school seems fine, if someone is interested in my childhood (I don't know how many wiki entries on professors mention their high schools), but one user's insistence on using the term "feeder school," with a footnote to something not available online, seems excessive. The material on Iraq seems to have come from someone (again, to go by the talk page) who cannot understand how someone could have opposed that war while being critical of others on the left, and at one point it was simply inaccurate. And the paragraph on my essay on the GRE just seems silly-- really, of the 200-odd essays I have written, that trifle gets a paragraph to itself?

Sorry about not marking my changes last time. But I am getting weary of this back-and-forth, and I forgot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.175.7.105 (talk) 14:35, 26 July 2014 (UTC)

Special:AbuseFilter/523

Hi MS! I looked at the linked pages and it sounds like this filter is supposed to disallow spambots, as determined by the edit summary? Based on User:Mr.Z-bot/filters.js the user is reported directly to AIV when this filter is tripped. What is expected of a patrolling admin? Should we block on site? Do you think this edit is a spambot? Thanks! — MusikAnimal ^talk 17:36, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

I was never involved with this filter, better ask those who were. During the past years this filter was on-and-off for immediate AIV reporting, and though I sometimes reacted on it (e.g., when those guys were reposting same sort of adverts from different accounts), I was rarely sure who was spambot and who was not. Materialscientist (talk) 22:13, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

Shall I ask over at meta:User:Mathonius/Reports/"ENDVALUE" spam (I only see you in the filter history)? The history of the meta page makes me think this anti-spam bot effort may have been abandoned. My concern is no one is using the filter and it's just taxing the system. Meanwhile a lot of us over at AIV don't know what to do with the automated reports, especially since the tripped edits often appear to be made in good-faith — MusikAnimal ^talk 22:32, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

Edit explanation

I removed those sentences from the Gorbachev article for three reasons: 1. Most importantly, because the Heritage Foundation (both the source and the subject) is a propaganda outlet below the standards of Wikipedia. 2. Because they were poorly written and had little to do with the rest of the paragraph. 3. Because they seemed to be self-promotion: they were much more focused on talking about Michael Johns than Mikhail Gorbachev.

I've had it.

I've had enough. I've been overwhelmed by the recent vandalism of the page Alberto Del Rio after he got released from the company. I need your help.

Removal of My Edit

On August 8, I edited the section on Cai Guo-Qiang's art to add the following: "In 2014, Cai's exhibition of "Moving Ghost Towns" featuring 2 iPads mounted on the backs of each of three African Sulcata desert tortoises for the opening of the Aspen Art Museum created an international "animal abuse" stir and a Change.org petition calling on the museum to cancel the exhibit and free the tortoises garnered over 3,000 signatures."

I will be reinserting this edit with an appropriate footnote. As you will see, there are a number of citations supporting this edit. Thanks for your assistance.

Edit of the words "Long bow" to "Selfbow"!

The change is because it is the true discriptor of the statement in question. Any bow, long or short that is made from a single piece of wood is technicly a "Self bow". Only a straight bow more than 5' long from tip to tip and with equil length of top and lower limbs, is a traditional "long bow". However some long bows are not self bows and some self bows are not long bows. The original statement that I corrected was wrong. That is why I fixed it. In antiquity, "Long bows" were also "self bows", but that is not true today. Also, some antique self bows over five feet long were not longbows at the time because they were recurved, or reflexed, not straight. There are very many different descriptors to name many different types of bows, however, in the cotext of that paragraph in that article, only the use of the words "Self bow" would be correct. If you could reply to me directly, I would like it much.

User:LDNBoi

User:LDNBoi is a confirmed Ctway sockpuppet Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ctway who has been recently blocked. He has also posted and then removed a "Im coming back soon" threat to his talk page. I have restored the threat which he has removed again. I have just undone that edit, however I believe that he should be totally blocked with talk page privileges revoked.--RAF910 (talk) 00:17, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Looking at the CU results, he shouldn't be coming back easily. Otherwise, I don't think there is a need to remove his talkpage privileges here. He's not excessively abusing it or trying to proxy edits. Just my two cents. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 00:51, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

Please, look again...he did it again...his habit is to add a comment and then immediately delete it...such as his most recent edit "lol RAF910 youre funny". It may not be blatant, but it is taunting and it foreshadows things to come. After all, he has used dozens of sockpuppets to manipulate the system, and frankly, he wins more than he loses.--RAF910 (talk) 02:12, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

66.61.92.158 and copyedits

Hello. I have noticed your revert of 66.61.92.158 (talk · contribs) at Mount Tambora, and he has promptly returned with a number of changes. I have looked at the user's edit history and it is staggering the number of changes this user has made. The majority appear to be correct and all appear to be in good faith. The problem is with the significant percentage that are in error. And it appears there are a lot of them, as evidenced by the numerous bracket bot warnings and other notifications on his talk page. Going through all of this user's edits seems so daunting I don't want to even begin to try. This appears to be case of an editor working way too fast and too many times making reckless and careless mistakes. I don't want to drag this to ANI but I would rather first seek some advice from you or someone on this. I doubt trying to communicate with the user would be effective as it doesn't appear he has ever posted on his talk page with exception of deleting a slug of notification back in April. --RacerX¹¹ Talk to me^{Stalk me} 03:29, 13 August 2014 (UTC)

Deadlink removal

Hi MS -- hope all is well. Was wondering what your thinking was in deadlink removal here. Tx. --Epeefleche (talk) 05:15, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

I couldn't find this in the Wayback Machine, and thought such random-string links, without any other identifiers, are hard to recover by other means, but if someone can then great. Materialscientist (talk) 06:04, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

My understanding is that bots periodically fix such links. I'm not sure that the Wayback Machine is the only function used today (or will be the only one used in the future). My understanding of WP:BADLINK is that, as it says, "Except for URLs in the External links section that have not been used to support any article content, do not delete a URL solely because the URL does not work any longer.... A dead, unarchived source URL may still be useful. Such a link indicates that information was (probably) verifiable in the past, and the link might provide another user with greater resources or expertise with enough information to find the reference. It could also return from the dead. With a dead link, it is possible to determine if it has been cited elsewhere, or to contact the person originally responsible for the source. For example, one could contact the Yale Computer Science department if http://www.cs.yale.edu/~EliYale/Defense-in-Depth-PhD-thesis.pdf were dead. Place {{dead link}} after the dead URL and just before the </ref> tag if applicable, leaving the original link intact. Placing {{dead link}} auto-categorizes the article into Articles with dead external links project category, and into specific monthly date range category based on |date= parameter. Do not delete a URL just because it has been tagged with {{dead link}} for a long time." Epeefleche (talk) 03:57, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

This is correct in general, but in practice, random-string urls that are not archived in Wayback Machine and have no identifiers are usually irrecoverable. In practice, it is quicker and easier to find a replacement source going by the article content. Materialscientist (talk) 04:02, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

I'm no expert. But I thought the direction given was clearly to not remove the dead link. Leaving it without any ref. One consequence of that is that it leaves it without an indication -- as indicated above in what I quoted -- that at some point in time the information was probably verifiable by a ref. Editors -- including me -- routinely delete (or tag and then delete) wholly unreferenced material. Which is the state, for example, the last para in the above was left in, when you deleted the dead ref. I would not necessarily do so if, instead, the dead ref were left. Epeefleche (talk) 04:18, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

Presence of a deadlink never guarantees that it was supporting its statement. I see recently a lot of bogus refs in articles related to Asian (Indian) movies and actors. Materialscientist (talk) 04:22, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

That's certainly true, as far as guarantees go. But I was quoting the actual language in WP:BADLINK (which speaks to probability, and not to guarantees). WP:BADLINK is unequivocal that these dead links should not be deleted, in what I quoted above. And my concern listed directly above remains. If you think BADLINK is wrong-headed, perhaps you want to seek a change? I'm not sure how deadlinks can be deleted today without violating the express terms of BADLINK.

Pakistan Army Promotion Procedures

Hi, Thank you for replying. I had it written intentionally so that it could be removed and i could directly talk to you on this matter. Pakistan Army Promotion Procedures have certain standards that remain apolitical popular to general view regarding political promotions. There is a procedure followed in a highly professional manner.

• Promotion from Lt. Col./Col. to Col./Brig.

A promotion Board consisting of all operational two star commanders excluding those on staff appointments and Corps Commanders (3 star) and all Principal Staff Officers (PSO) (3 Stars) conduct the final ratification board under COAS where all promotions are debated before COAS gives the final order. Before that 3 Promotion Boards are conducted in Zone A, B, C under Commander Northern Command (Zone B). Commander Southern Command (Zone C) and one of any PSO may that be QMG, IGT&A or any of 11 PSO.

• Promotion from Brig. to Maj. Gen

COAS with all 3 stars recommend officers from all arms and are considered for appointment to two star officers. No 2 star reside this promotion board.

• Promotion from Maj. Gen. to Lt. Gen.

Only the COAS on personal prerogative have the sole right to recommend officers to 3 star promotion as they are key PSO's to COAS not to Prime-ministers or President as mentioned in your article regarding promotion of Gen. Musharraf. COAS recommends the name and President has to accept them as he is not aware of the military's professional standards. Among st all the 2 star officers DGMO and DGMI is the most coveted prestigious appointment that is usually considered to make it to Lt. Gen. under normal circumstances only if not thrown to lower medical category as in case of Maj. Gen. Naushad Kiyani. A DGMO and DGMI doesn't have to ask any political agent for his promotion as mentioned in your article under any circumstances as it can effect the career drastically as in case on Maj. Gen. (r) Inayat Ullah Khan Khattak. A DGMO will never risk that. It is obnoxious and the worst way of defaming the military promotion procedure if it tend to give perception based on somebody who has no idea of Military Cmnd and Structure additionally giving references from a book that is altogether just an un-trustworthy reference. I therefore could only request to make that necessary change and to delete that remark altogether.

• Promotion from lt. Gen. to Gen.

Yes this is Political appointment but with consultation of COAS who recommends three names. Even this to some extent has been a pure military's prerogative as COAS personally refers 1 to President for Promotion. Nonetheless President can and has the right to make independent decision in this regard. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 39.32.213.162 (talk) 12:30, 16 August 2014 (UTC)

SPA with Psychedelic drug advocates categories

Dear Materialscientist, sorry to bother you but do you have a view on these contributions please? I'm not sure but I think they may not meet the standard for adding cats if the article doesn't justify them in its text - or something?? And is there a pejorative ring to this cat which means we should be careful in its application? I only saw this pattern because I watch Maynard Ferguson, and in that article although it mentions drug use it doesn't characterize him as an advocate, I think.

Image galleries are needed to make the Tea page more readable and more suitable for display on non-PCs.

This branch still has the intact gallery tags -- http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Tea&oldid=622666737 -- https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Images#Gallery_syntax

I have done a lot of overall maintenance with respect to tea related articles, but the article only recently has developed so many images that the need for their proper organization has become necessary.

Can you go in and fix the gallery problem for Tea? Your undoing it to an older version just returns the article to a state of image 'higgledy-piggledy' that does not help its readability or visual clarity.

Style guides

Style guides originate from print, and for web page use a lot of the print rules have to be abandoned for visual or readability reasons. The Wiki style guides are at best recommendations (of reasonable best practices) ... the best rule is that the framework and layout of an article should be similar to related articles. Ultimately, the page layout should match the contents (but this clearly is open to interpretation).

-- Having pages and that are readable on PDAs to Workstations is not easy.
-- If you code HTML for your own webpages, this is an ongoing problem.

Wherever possible, the text should not be clumped like paper text aka huge paragraphs (and there is a lot of articles with this problem). Important articles should not have any substantial or substantive visual clutter due to images or tables to the extent that it is possible to remove it.

Most pages are OK. With time however, the visual and content integrity can decline. Eyreland (talk) 00:32, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
