:Hello {{re|Dmehus}}, I use a tool to approximate how long the proxies are open. The two week block are for proxies which I believe can be closed soon, or do you have a suggestion in mind? --[[User:Synoman Barris|Synoman Barris]] ([[User talk:Synoman Barris|talk]]) 16:38, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
::{{ping|Synoman Barris}} I am not aware of anything, no. If you've used such a tool, I'll trust your judgment. Maybe my [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consul]] colleague {{ping|Reception123}}, also a [[meta:Global Sysops|Global Sysop]], has an idea. Did you see my reply about potential housekeeping in '''Template:''' namespace (i.e., unused or little use out of scope test template imports)? [[mh:meta:User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 16:42, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
:::{{re|Dmehus}} Seems like iI missed the ping, where did you post that? --[[User:Synoman Barris|Synoman Barris]] ([[User talk:Synoman Barris|talk]]) 16:46, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
::::{{ping|Synoman Barris}} It's on [[User talk:Dmehus|my user talk page]]; I left the thread open until you've read it and replied and/or otherwise acknowledged it (i.e., 'thanks'). [[mh:meta:User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 17:04, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
::::{{re|Dmehus}} I am also curious, what did you mean by '''your blocking the open proxy IP addresses ''does'' create an entry in the <code>'''[[irccloud:#cvt-feed|#cvt-feed]]'''</code>, which ''may'' give it an elevated prominence to [[meta:Global Sysops|Global Sysops]] and [[meta:Stewards|stewards]]'''. --[[User:Synoman Barris|Synoman Barris]] ([[User talk:Synoman Barris|talk]]) 16:50, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
:::::{{ping|Synoman Barris}} Oh, good question. Yeah, <code>'''#cvt-feed'''</code> is an [[meta:IRC|IRC]] [[Special:RecentChanges|RecentChanges]] feed for ''all'' public Miraheze wikis. It's used mainly by [[meta:Stewards|stewards]] and [[meta:Global Sysops|Global Sysops]] to monitor cross-wiki vandalism or abuse more efficiently. We used to have [[meta:User:Proxybot|Proxybot]] that I mentioned that automatically blocked open proxies, but it hasn't functioned for quite awhile now, so global functionaries mainly monitor, presumably, the same sort of open proxy lists you monitor as well as notifications in that IRC feed. It generally reports [[Special:AbuseLog|AbuseLog]] and [[Special:Block|block]] entries from public wikis, as well as certain keywords that may indicate either (a) vandalism or (b) [[meta:Code of Conduct|Code of Conduct]] harassment or other violations. There are also wiki-specific feeds that you can have a [[mh:bots|MirahezeBots project]] developer setup, including for ''your'' wiki, if you wish. Well, you can actually create the IRC channel (usually in the format <code>'''#miraheze-feed-''wikiname'''''</code>), and then a MirahezeBots developer will add one of the IRC bots to your IRC feed. You can also join our TestWiki channel at [[irccloud:#miraheze-testwiki|#miraheze-testwiki]] or monitor TestWiki's RC feed at [[irccloud:#miraheze-feed-test|#miraheze-feed-test]].

::::::{{Ping|Dmehus}} Hello Dmehus, how can I know when a wiki of mine has been created. I never receive pings if my Wiki is created or declined e.t.c. Thanks --[[User:Synoman Barris|Synoman Barris]] ([[User talk:Synoman Barris|talk]]) 15:20, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
:::::::{{ping|Synoman Barris}} Thank you for the question. I have actually just finished creating a new wiki, [[mh:netflix|Netflix wiki]]. As to ''not'' receiving Echo notifications (a.k.a. "pings"), that ''was'' a long-standing shortcoming in [[meta:Special:RequestWiki|Special:RequestWiki]]; however, {{ping|John}}, as part of a significant feature improvement to RequestWiki, recently resolved this. So, you should be receiving your Echo notifications fairly shortly after a request is updated. Hope this helps.

Please be aware of the notice regarding your actions at [[User talk:ApexAgunomu]] and the warning now in effect. [[User:RhinosF1|RhinosF1]] ([[User talk:RhinosF1|talk]]) 10:48, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
:{{u|RhinosF1}} Have you seen that the user was actively deleting translation units at that time even after multiple warnings.The best action I sought was to block the user to prevent further disruption as o fixed the mess.If thats what will we call disruption from my part, I consider it best to hand over my tools since I clearly don't understand their use. Cheers --[[User:Synoman Barris|Synoman Barris]] ([[User talk:Synoman Barris|talk]]) 12:07, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
::I don't think they thought you were being disruptive (though I certainly was). They just prefer that you contact one of them on the IRC channel (the link to which is on the main page) instead of blocking someone as they are readily available and can determine the best course of action. [[User:ApexAgunomu|ApexAgunomu]] ([[Special:Contribs/ApexAgunomu|<span style="color:red">My changes here</span>]] | [[Special:Newsection/User talk:ApexAgunomu|<span style="color:#0080ff">Drop me a line</span>]]) 12:11, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
:::Please abide by your restriction. This is not your user space. [[User:RhinosF1|RhinosF1]] ([[User talk:RhinosF1|talk]]) 12:14, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
::I do not see that in a log but I don't believe you had to act immediately. You could have contacted any consul first given the sanctions were a consul action. [[User:RhinosF1|RhinosF1]] ([[User talk:RhinosF1|talk]]) 12:13, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
::Hello, we didn't say you were disruptive, just that you were going too fast. I myself considered your action to be in good faith (in view of all the warnings and the fact that you did not block it indefinitely and asked for future review for consul who I left a message on IRC). So, don't take this warning as a punishement, just a remember of the policy. [[User:HeartsDo|HeartsDo]] ([[User talk:HeartsDo|talk]]) 13:32, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
::I saw that you remove your rights. No needed. It's just better to wait before taking any admin action and if you see something abusive to warn the user and inform lrc. You are welcome to return whenever you want :) [[User:AlPaD|AlPaD]] ([[User talk:AlPaD|talk]]) 19:30, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
:::Hello AlPaD, thanks for stopping by. I don't see myself coming back. I've always appreciated a collaborative environment where bureaucracy is not to the extreme. I won't find that here where even good faith requests are treated with toxicity. It's been nice interacting with helpful users as yourself.Cheers --[[User:Synoman Barris|Synoman Barris]] ([[User talk:Synoman Barris|talk]]) 22:04, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
 
::::OK. Thank you for your help and your kind words! [[User:AlPaD|AlPaD]] ([[User talk:AlPaD|talk]]) 11:49, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
