Block of Heathergot
Hi DarkMatterMan4500,

While your good-faith enthusiasm for spambot blocking on TestWiki is appreciated, your block of the above-captioned user is, in my view, premature, as while the user may well be a sleeper spambot, it has not made any hits in the abuse log. So, please try and concentrate on blocking users which hit the abuse filter's abuse logs or which post actual spam or create likely spam only account user pages.

Thanks,

Apologies
Wasn't trying to misuse the admin tools. Sorry for that! --Walhouse (talk) 08:56, 22 May 2021 (UTC)


 * It's alright. You didn't know and while assuming good faith, it seems like you were only making test pages and removing them afterwards. So of course, no harm, no foul. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 10:25, 22 May 2021 (UTC)

Friendly reminder that Consuls remain the non-test administrators
Hi DarkMatterMan4500,

While your reminder to the Bugambilia sockpuppet account was in good-faith, asking a suspected sockpuppet account does remain one of the functions typically reserved for non-test administrators, which are Consuls, as I'm sure you'll no doubt recall. I wouldn't remove your  bit, even temporarily, for this, but it does nonetheless necessitate this friendly reminder for you. With regard to Noelle88, their initial Meta user page together with their vague initial reason for requesting rights did raise my spidey senses. Their reply did comfort me a fair bit, since that is a very specific reason for requesting that is atypical of Bugambilia behaviour. However, their creation of several talk page translation subpages as blank pages on Meta Wiki last night, which I'd deleted, elevated my spidey senses. I left it last night, but perhaps I should've mentioned my suspicions to Reception123, who, in turn, could've provided you with a head's up, thus not needing this inquisition from you. Their creation of gibberish talk pages again this morning indeed proved it.

Anyway, please do keep the above in mind.

Thank you,

 * Oh, so I wasn't the only one after all. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 16:22, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Nope, definitely not. :) Dmehus (talk) 17:03, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I'll keep an eye on them in case Bugambilia comes back with another sockpuppet account. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) 19:52, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
