Hello and excuse me,
When you blocked 213.87.128.0/19, did you really mean to block it for 2 years? Vcohen (talk) 21:14, 13 October 2023 (UTC) Reply
- @Vcohen: Hi, I saw the ping on the Russian wikipedia about this also, if you could please translate a reply for me.
- Yes, I did mean to block this range for 2 years. The reason is spambots have taken over a wide amount of IPs on this range. Over the past few days I have locked 578 accounts that have been active in the past 3 months from this range. Beyond that, the checkuser log for loginwiki indicates this range is responsible for over 31 uses of checkuser on that range due to spambots dating back to 2020. So if we extrapolate that thought, we are looking at likely 4000 abusive accounts since the start of last year alone. I expect that is a lowball figure too. -- Amanda (she/her) 06:25, 14 October 2023 (UTC) Reply
