Hello, I was thinking of being added to the verified users list. I believe I can reliably check IPs for open proxies and I think I've been around on WP:OP for awhile. If you believe I can do this, can you please add me to the list?

Hi. This certainly seems reasonable. Traditionally I apply a little test, comprising a few personally selected IP addresses. I hope that's OK.

The Admin's Barnstar

Zzuuzz, I owe you many thanks, fist bumps, and pints of beer for your efforts at watching the AIV reports page, and for your agility with blocking the sock puppet accounts that have been repeatedly (attempting) to troll Wikipedia. Your dedication and attentiveness is something that many should look up to when it comes to becoming a skilled and intelligent editor and Administrator. I might run for RFA again this August; I hope that I become as good of an Administrator as you.

I have seen tweets and facebook posts being used to occasionally reference some things where a primary source is suitable. But my concerns couldn't be clearer - other than a name and the usual furniture I see no information on that page. It is a page with no information.

We're wandering around in sub-optimal territory, with references for verification that say different things to different people. I'm trying to assume good faith of everyone involved so I'll take your word for it, but you can tell me exactly how it's styled - is it 2/7/93 or 7/2/93, or is it spelled out in full?

Thanks. I'm trying not to be cynical, but that really doesn't look very convincing does it? And I'm trying to understand how there are posts from 1993, and why there is only one post, which contains a date of birth.

Understandable. That's the way Facebook Timeline works. It puts things in years, and I guess because a birthdate is listed (If you click on the tab that has the birthdate information, it says so.), it says "posted in 1993." I can see your cynicism, though. Like I said, it isn't verified, but it's the only profile that seems to come close, and unless someone has an obsession with impersonating celebrities--though is he really a big celebrity anymore?--my first inclination is to trust it. Wikipedia may have different standards.

Thank you for your help. I've seen a lot of fake stuff since I've been here and feel somewhat justified in looking closely :/ Wikipedia policy is fairly clear that this should be removed (indeed the whole article is somewhat in jeopardy), but I'll remain calm. Since semi-protection won't work, the only real option is a block on the edit-warring user who won't abide by policy and won't even discuss it. But I'll remain calm, for now. I might just full-protect the article for a while at some point though. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 18:54, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2016-06-17T18:54:00.000Z","author":"Zzuuzz","type":"comment","level":10,"id":"c-Zzuuzz-2016-06-17T18:54:00.000Z-Tmk2130-2016-06-17T18:47:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hi Zzuuzz, hope you are well. I saw your name on the Administrators willing to take rollback requests, so I decided to come here.

I have been reverting quite a lot of vandalism lately, and would like to use rollback to find and revert vandalism easily. I frequently patrol my watchlist and the recent changes log to find vandalism, and have looked at a preview of STiki and Huggle and they look really good for anti-vandal work, and would really like to use them to help with my counter-vandalism work alongside Twinkle, which I currently use to revert vandalism. Upon finding vandalism. I immediately warn users and if they persist after a final warning, report them to AIV. I know what is and what is not vandalism as well and will not misuse this right if granted. I have only been blocked from editing twice but these were both self-requested to help with exam preparation.

I have had a previous rollback request declined in December or January (can't remember which month) for not having a measurable track record and not making enough reports to AIV (at that time, I was quite worried TW would notify the user if reported, but I learnt that it doesn't), but since then, I feel as if I have overcome this, although i took three months off recently due to exams and asked to be blocked during that time, which have now finished. ~Thanks!

Yes, he's a troll. (/snark). If you look at the links he posts, there is nothing in them that is relevant. I kind of wonder if this is another now-vanished user back to cause drama; WP horse racing has kicked out a few over the years. There is absolutely nothing to anything he says, it is either trolling for lulz or delusional bullshit. He has some sort of odd obsession with Kent Desormeaux. The reality is that all jockeys in the United States have statistics listed at Equibase, and his are here. It clearly lists his Kentucky Derby and other major wins, and, more to the point, it notes he won the Eclipse Award for leading apprentice jockey in 1987 -- clearly he wasn't riding racehorses at the age of two. I also have no idea why this user has an obsession with jockey Jose Santos and Funny Cide either (or Giacomo and Mike Smith). But I suggest you explain that he is not stating factual information and that you are no longer going to engage with him on the topic.

Animal people (and I do look in the mirror as I say this... or at least my reflection in my laptop screen) are a whole special breed of crazy. I don't quite know why this is, but over 10 years here, most of my worst edit wars and general "drahmahz" have been surrounding various horse articles (and a few spillovers into other animal articles). I've run into one or two editors in other areas who are close, but the real pros seem to be my fellow animal fanciers.

I've been thinking about that. Previously it was easy to rangeblock, but the ranges have diversified into these huge things (3 of them that I've seen). It would need to target these ranges, and sandbox resets (or blanking) either on a time-quota or based on the most recent edit to the page.

I think so. I think we can ignore the 71.3.136.63 user for now, and want to accommodate 95.246.129.175 as well as 79.27.120.166. I've a change in mind for the last line also, as it's usually one of two things.

Admins have an advantage because they can see that a user is blocked instantly due to the blocking page, though there isn't always the details.

Yes I think IPs with no edits, no block log, no appeals, etc, and some of these huge ranges can and should be declined. There's simply too many that we need to focus on abusive IPs.

On that filter block issue you were kind enough to respond to, can you please explain why it blocks a contribution when I write nazi in all caps rather than as Nazi with only the first letter capitalized as if it were a proper noun? Nazi is not a word, it is an abbreviation for Nationalist Socialist German Workers' Party, or Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei. If anything should be filtered, it should Nazi. Are you sure that is the only reason the filter prevented me from posting my contributions? What are the rules of this filter? Who decides those rules. How are those rules reformed to better serve the will of the users of Wikipedia while avoiding repeated false positives? Wouldn't you agree that neither nazi in all caps nor N.A.Z.I. should be filtered out in this case? I can hardly imagine a situation where the capitalization of one word should result in the filter blocking several pages of material that took many hours to write, edit and cite. Can you give an example as to when that should be sufficient ground to block whole paragraphs of normally capitalized material? Is it not permissible to use capitalization to emphasize a word in a wikipedia edit? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.119.20.133 (talk) 03:57, 21 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2016-08-21T03:57:00.000Z","author":"24.119.20.133","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-24.119.20.133-2016-08-21T03:57:00.000Z-Additional_Questions_About_Filter_Block","replies":["c-Zzuuzz-2016-08-21T06:53:00.000Z-24.119.20.133-2016-08-21T03:57:00.000Z"]}}-->

As far as I can tell it's the only reason for your edits being stopped. The filter you hit is one of our oldest, entitled "Vandalism in all caps"; the word (in this form) is commonly used in vandalism or as an offensive term. From what I can tell the word you used is not common (in this form) in English or in dictionaries, despite its origins. Filters are slightly dumb and can't always identify the full context of the offending word, but I can give you the example you're looking from the last few hours[6] (use your imagination for what it originally said). But I agree it might need to be looked at for this particular case. This is usually done through the page you made your report to. We can only usually identify errors if they're reported. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 06:53, 21 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2016-08-21T06:53:00.000Z","author":"Zzuuzz","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Zzuuzz-2016-08-21T06:53:00.000Z-24.119.20.133-2016-08-21T03:57:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hi zzuzz. Thanks for several reverts on my talk page and other places. I noticed that you blocked some of the IPs with the note "usual disruption", or words to that effect. You most likely already divined this, but for the record (and the TPSs) even though this character is reinstating some of the the deluded Neostrada user's edits, it's pretty clearly Wikinger who is bored and unemployed. It's one his pastimes, compare these "contributions" on Meta, which resurrected the latest hissy fit by perma-banned LouisPhilippeCharles, mingled with the characteristic, Lovecraft-derived muttering.

Zzuuzz,

Your edit to the page on me is totally acceptable to me and solves all the concerns I had. I thank you for this, but will be monitoring the page over the next few days to make sure the wording is not changed. If it is changed chronically, I will again demand the deletion of the article on me, as well as warn of other action. This was not a simple, vanilla issue. It was, from my perspective, quite serious.

Dear Zzuuzz. Thank you for inserting the word former in the article about me. It answered all of the concerns I had about the accuracy of the article.

Hey, just a heads up I've alreated the OS team to those edits that this troll is making to try to have these wiped off the server.

Hello, Zzuuzz. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.

Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.

In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:

• Extended confirmed protection may only be used in cases where semi-protection has proven ineffective. It should not be used as a first resort.
• A bot will post a notification at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard of each use. MusikBot currently does this by updating a report, which is transcluded onto the noticeboard.

Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.
This message was sent to the administrators' mass message list. To opt-out of future messages, please remove yourself from the list. 17:49, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
