A recently closed Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove Autopatrolled from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with Edit Filter Manager, choose to self-assign this permission to yourself.

Greetings. I originally posed this question to user:Liz, but she suggested I ask you, since you blocked III69 and might be able to notice any similarities.
2021–22 Swadhinata KS season was created by III69, who was blocked on 8/17/21. There have been substantial edits to the article since, by all by IPs who only started editing the article subsequent to III69's block. In addition, the several I checked all seem to have begun their editing (except for a single edit 2 years ago) with editing this article. Since there are numerous IPs on this article, should I open up an SPI? Or should I simply mark it for G5, since the puppetmaster was blocked back in 2020? Thanks.

Hi, could you please support me in protecting me from a disruptive editor? thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lasouhq ( talk • contribs) 07:45, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
Hi!
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Thank you. / Johan (WMF)

Hello Zzuuzz, I hope you are doing great? :)
I had a Wikipedia workshop with a group of librarians today and unfortunately some of them were unable to create accounts or edit on English wiki due to an IP block. Is it possible to exempt new accounts from IP blocks? If it is possible please let me know. These IP blocks have been a challenge for many editors in my community lately.
Please let me know if there is anything you think I can do to help the situation.
Counting on your usual support.

An editor has asked for a Move review of Waukesha parade attack. Because you closed the move discussion for this page, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the move review. Jax 0677 ( talk) 01:46, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
A recently closed Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove Autopatrolled from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with Edit Filter Manager, choose to self-assign this permission to yourself. This will be implemented the week of December 13th, but if you wish to self-assign you may do so now. To find out when the change has gone live or if you have any questions please visit the Administrator's Noticeboard. 20:07, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
Greetings. I originally posed this question to user:Liz, but she suggested I ask you, since you blocked III69 and might be able to notice any similarities.
2021–22 Swadhinata KS season was created by III69, who was blocked on 8/17/21. There have been substantial edits to the article since, by all by IPs who only started editing the article subsequent to III69's block. In addition, the several I checked all seem to have begun their editing (except for a single edit 2 years ago) with editing this article. Since there are numerous IPs on this article, should I open up an SPI? Or should I simply mark it for G5, since the puppetmaster was blocked back in 2020? Thanks.

I opened up a sockpuppet investigation into one of the suspected sockpuppeteers, Abigblueworld, at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Abigblueworld, if you want to check it out. DarkMatterMan4500 ( talk) ( contribs) 17:59, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
Hello Zzuuzz: Enjoy the holiday season and winter solstice if it's occurring in your area of the world, and thanks for your work to maintain, improve and expand Wikipedia. Cheers, CAPTAIN RAJU (T) 07:25, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
TBH, the only reason I tagged the sock as ILT was because of this global lock. Why did Amanda think that?-- Bbb23 ( talk) 18:32, 29 December 2021 (UTC)

Hi, could you please support me in protecting me from a disruptive editor? thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lasouhq ( talk • contribs) 07:45, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
Hi!
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Thank you. / Johan (WMF)

Hi Zzuuzz. You blocked Atrangiajay but they're still posting WP:PROMO content on their user talk page [2]. Could you please revoke talk page access? Thanks. -- Drm310 🍁 ( talk) 06:17, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
Hello Zzuuzz, I hope you are doing great? :)
I had a Wikipedia workshop with a group of librarians today and unfortunately some of them were unable to create accounts or edit on English wiki due to an IP block. Is it possible to exempt new accounts from IP blocks? If it is possible please let me know. These IP blocks have been a challenge for many editors in my community lately.
Please let me know if there is anything you think I can do to help the situation.
Counting on your usual support.

Thank you so much for getting back to me on this zzuzz. We were able to create accounts for these users in other wikis even though they were unable to make any edits on English wiki.
Please will it be possible to send a list of account usernames that could be exempted from IP blocks for the sake of these workshops?
Best regards, Kinvidia ( talk) 10:51, 22 January 2022 (UTC).
Thank you for your response zzuuzz, I will send you a list of usernames and I can confirm that each account is owned by an individual (one username per person). Kinvidia ( talk) 12:41, 24 January 2022 (UTC)
This is the first list of usernames, I can confirm that all user accounts are owned by a person:
Thanks a lot Zzuuzz

Thank you so much for the exemptions zzuuzz. I will surely check JoseThom2018 and get back to you, I will also let you know if there are any issues. I am so grateful. Kinvidia ( talk) 00:48, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
Hello zzuuzz thank yo so much for your support earlier, these are some other users that will be involved in my subsequent workshops, I will be very grateful if they could also be given block exemptions for the sake of the trainings. Their usernames are below, and I can confirm that all user accounts are owned by a person;

Thank you zzuuzz, I apologise for the spelling mistakes but I can confirm that Kwabenaagyare is actually Kwabenaagyare1. I am yet to get any response from the others. Once again, thank you so much.

Hi zzuuzz Kokomaster20 is actually Aliukoko. Two users; Oladipupo193 and Maame Esi have also reached out to me for block exemptions. Some~the earlier exempted accounts are now able to edit but some others have still not responded as to whether they can edit or not at the moment. Thank you so much for your support. I will reach out to you for help if some others are still unable to edit after the exemption. If I am unable to reach you in time, I will follow the procedure you have shared with me. Thank you so much. Kinvidia ( talk) 00:19, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

I feel like the IP Block situation is a national issue here in Ghana and submitting usernames for exemptions is too much work for you, and not a sustainable resolve (as I will keep bringing usernames for exemptions). I was wondering if there was a way to have a discussion to sort it out or who I could reach out to?
Thank you for your usual cooperation, I appreciate your support. Kinvidia ( talk) 22:21, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
Thank you Zzuuzz, that was insightful. I appreciate your continuous support amidst the time constraints that you have had to deal with.

Hi Zzuuzz, I hope you are doing great? :) I was wondering if you could help me provide block exemptions for the list of users below. I will be happy if this could be done before Friday as I have a workshop with the group on Friday. Best regards. Kinvidia ( talk) 18:36, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi, thank you for changing my user rights for a month. Would it be possible to have the right for a longer period or permanently? By the way I have been wondering how blocking some mobile phone wifi IP addresses deters vandals.

Could we get some protection on Talk:Saki Fujita? The talk page doesn't seem to be used much so the risk of collateral damage is limited compared to other targets, and the disruptive editing seems to be happening irregularly so short term protection may make the most sense.
