ACC question

I just put two requests on hold, #189777 and #190210 - simultaneous requests... this may sound stupid, but I've never sent an email from the ACC page, that wasn't part of the decline/create process. How do I send one to this potential editor? I went on IRC, but no one was home. Onel5969 TT me 13:24, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Open Proxies Project

Hi,

Hope you're doing well. I'm not quite sure when I came across the Wikiproject on open proxies, but it piqued my interest. Since you have some experience in this area, I was curious where I could learn some of the technical aspects, so that I might be able to participate once my technical knowledge is more substantial.

Thanks very much,

GABgab 02:40, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@GeneralizationsAreBad: I'm good thanks! When I saw your message, first thing that came to my mind is this. I must admit, there's no one place I learned all of this and it took me a lot of time. Initially I went through this guide, and it didn't make much sense to me, but eventually I understood what the guide was referring to. Being an ACC member helped me a lot as there is a proxy check queue there and it helped me gather a lot of experience. All that said, I'm happy to help. Although I won't be able to explain everything to you, I'll try my best. First thing you are going to need is an Nmap tool. You can fetch one here (download the installer/executable installer). This tool helps you find open/filtered ports on an IP (p.s. open ports are not equal to open proxies). In order for an IP to be considered open proxy, the open/filtered port must actually redirect requests. You should also make use of WHOIS ( I use whois.domaintools.com/<enter the ip here>). It's nothing but useful information about the owner of the IP/IP range. Using this data, you can decide if the owner is a webhosting company or an ISP or an educational institution or a company. About webhosts, we block them regardless of open proxies/ports. I don't want to overwhelm you, but I think you can start of with a simple task. Here's an IP 125.163.60.47 (talk · contribs · WHOIS), blocked by ProcseeBot. There's an open proxy operating there and you can start by "Regular Scan"ning the IP on nmap. You'll find a bunch of open ports. Now open Firefox (I use Firefox, simplifies things), go to options --> Advanced --> Network --> Settings --> Select "Manual proxy configuration". Now in the "HTTP proxy" textbox, paste this IP and the port you found open in your nmap scan (make sure the checkbox below that is checked) and click OK. Now open a random website, preferably a HTTPS (or SSL) one, because Wikipedia enforces HTTPS. If the page loads, voila you have identified an open proxy! But that's not everything, there's a lot to learn. Takes time and practice. I was first interested on open proxies around this time, I was ready to do proxy checks around this time. That's how long it took me, but hey, that's just me. I hope this helps, feel free to stop by with your questions. Regards—UY Scuti Talk 04:15, 17 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New Page Review - newsletter No.2

Hello UY Scuti,
A HUGE backlog

We now have 809 New Page Reviewers!
Most of us requested the user right at PERM, expressing a wish to be able to do something about the huge backlog, but the chart on the right does not demonstrate any changes to the pre-user-right levels of October.

Hitting 17,000 soon

The backlog is still steadily growing at a rate of 150 a day or 4,650 a month. Only 20 reviews a day by each reviewer over the next few days would bring the backlog down to a managable level and the daily input can then be processed by each reviewer doing only 2 or 3 reviews a day - that's about 5 minutes work!
It didn't work in time to relax for the Xmas/New Year holidays. Let's see if we can achieve our goal before Easter, otherwise by Thanksgiving it will be closer to 70,000.

Second set of eyes

Remember that we are the only guardians of quality of new articles, we alone have to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged by non-Reviewer patrollers and that new authors are not being bitten.

Abuse

This is even more important and extra vigilance is required considering Orangemoody, and

  1. this very recent case of paid advertising by a Reviewer resulting in a community ban.
  2. this case in January of paid advertising by a Reviewer, also resulting in a community ban.
  3. This Reviewer is indefinitely blocked for sockpuppetry.

Coordinator election

Kudpung is stepping down after 6 years as unofficial coordinator of New Page Patrolling/Reviewing. There is enough work for two people and two coords are now required. Details are at NPR Coordinators; nominate someone or nominate yourself. Date for the actual suffrage will be published later.

World of Guns: Guns Disassembly undeletion / reworking

Hello, UY Scuti. I wanted to discuss with you the possibility of re-creating the World of Guns: Gun Disassembly article. I wrote to User:Michig, but he is on a wiki-break, so I post to your page as well. First of all, the previous deletion discussion was extremely civil and I agree with all the points made. Here, then, are my points for creating a small article anyway.

Besides being featured twice on Rock Paper Shotgun (the second time is here), World of Guns was covered very positively in one of the more popular (and, uniquely, politics-free) US firearm culture blogs, The Firearm Blog. This, I think, reflects its unique position: it lies somewhere between being a hardcore simulator, a casual game for proverbial CSGO fans, and a real, viable engineering reference and teaching aid (The Firearm Blog editor notes that he actually used the game as a reference for repairing old firearms). The effort put into the simulation library seems sizeable to say the least - developers list "150+ models with 19 000 individual parts".

Here is its Russian-language article - see the ref section, it got more coverage in the Russian-language gaming press, including a segment on a TV show about videogames: Link. Also, the game seems to be reasonably popular in terms of user base (Steam Spy lists around 2.2 million installs, and Google Store lists "1 to 5 million" installs for the earlier version of the app; plus about a million users total on VK.com and Facebook).

To be honest, being an avid firearm enthusiast, I personally used the app a lot over the years. And I think it's extremely unique, sort of like Microsoft Flight Simulator of firearms. Pity it doesn't have more coverage, again probably because of its awkward position between casual and niche markets.

So, these are my points for creating a stub / small article with a video game template. What do you think? — Preceding unsigned comment added by AyeBraine (talk • contribs) 18:12, 13 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@AyeBraine: Hi, thanks for stopping by. I think your point is reasonable and I'm in favour. Before starting to recreate the article, I'd suggest you get another pair of eyes (or more) from Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Video games. Regards—UY Scuti Talk 15:29, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@UY Scuti: Thanks a lot! I'll bring this to their attention. AyeBraine (talk) 01:42, 16 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Founding History of The Jayhawks ( dispute help )

I copied and pasted this from the archive section, as I have received no response from you, and I will now make a second attempt. You are listed as a source for dispute help. I filled out the form at the dispute resolution notice board page, but when I go to submit it I get a "badtoken" invalid CSRF message, and it will not submit. Why is this? See below. This is what I initially wrote to you. Please advise direction to take at this point:

"The Founding History of The Jayhawks ( dispute help )[edit source] There has been a recent dispute ( late last year ) over the exact history of the founding of "The Jayhawks" ( a band from Minneapolis ) over on their talk page. I responded there myself with some information and questioning in an attempt to resolve the issue ( a few weeks ago ), but have not received any communication back. Is there anyway to kindly resolve this dispute? I am brand new to Wiki, and would greatly appreciate your time and help. GeoAntrim53 (talk) 20:31, 3 January 2017 (UTC)"

More background: Originally this issue was in regards to the *correct* listing of the founding members of The Jayhawks. The founding members are Mark Olson and Caleb Palmiter in 1984; not Mark Olson, Gary Louris, and Marc Perlman in 1985. For reference, we have a band portfolio promo picture submitted by Olson himself....of Olson and Palmiter ( submitted by Olson himself ), Olson's written and spoken word, and the non denial word of the rest of the remaining band. They do not dispute this fact. When this change was attempted to be made here at Wiki, an editor made an accusation that this information was not legitimately sourced ( in his mind ) and that it was assumed to be merely an attempt by Olson to over ride the contributions of Louris since the two of them are not currently on the best of terms. My request for resolve was to find someone willing to contact both Olson and Louris in order to verify the facts and allow for the correct information to be placed upon their page, and also Mark Olson's personal Wiki page. I can provide the promo picture if needed. GeoAntrim53 (talk) 04:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Dispute Resolution Noticeboard Volunteer Roll Call

This is a volunteer roll call sent to you on behalf of the current Dispute Resolution Noticeboard Coordinator, Robert McClenon, and is being sent to you because you have listed yourself as a volunteer at DRN. If you remain interested in helping at DRN and are willing to actively do so by taking at least one case (and seeing it through) or helping with administrative matters at least once per calendar month, please add your name to the roll call list. Those who do not add their name on the roll call list will be removed from the principal volunteer list after May 31, 2017 unless the DRN Coordinator chooses to retain their name for the best interest of DRN or the encyclopedia. Individuals whose names are removed after May 31, 2017, should feel free to re-add their names to the principal volunteer list, but are respectfully requested not to do so unless they are willing to take part at DRN at least one time per month as noted above. No one is going to be monitoring to see if you live up to that commitment, but we respectfully ask that you either live up to it or remove your name from the principal volunteer list.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Barış Yarkadaş, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Turkish.

New Page Review - Newsletter No.4

Hello UY Scuti,

Since rolling out the right in November, just 6 months ago, we now have 809 reviewers, but the backlog is still mysteriously growing fast. If every reviewer did just 55 reviews, the 22,000 backlog would be gone, in a flash, schwoop, just like that!

But do remember: Rather than speed, quality and depth of patrolling and the use of correct CSD criteria are essential to good reviewing. Do not over-tag. Make use of the message feature to let the creator know about your maintenance tags. See the tutorial again HERE. Get help HERE.
