Warn about a Wikipedia mirror
Ed-Tech Press, also known as "Scientific E-Resources, is a Wikipedia mirror. They print copies of books that are just Wikipedia articles. Per WP:CIRCULAR, we should never cite them in articles. Unfortunately, these books are listed in Google Books, and there's no obvious warning on them. I've inadvertently cited them twice recently. While I really appreciate reversions like this one, it seems like this is an area where an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Could we please have an abuse filter set up for this string:
|publisher=Scientific e-Resources
which should catch most {{cite book}} uses? If it would be great if it could produce a warning message like "Ed-Tech Press and Scientific E-Resources are Wikipedia mirrors. They are not reliable sources and should not be cited in articles per WP:CIRCULAR." I think that the 'warn' setting should be sufficient. WhatamIdoing (talk) 01:42, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you making this request - this publisher is just the worst. There is deliberately no attempt to identify the nature of the copied materials; it's just a straight up scam. There are three things I usually search for: "Ed-Tech Press", "Scientific e-Resources" (which is typically displayed when a google books link is resolved in a template), and the URL of "edtechpress.co.uk". I do agree with the warning being sufficient as I don't recall this ever being used on-wiki by a bad-faith actor. Sam Kuru (talk) 02:35, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah. Possible filter code for catching this could be:
page_namespace == 0 & !contains_any(user_groups, "bot", "sysop", "extendedconfirmed") & ( mirrors := "(?:\|publisher\s*\=\s*(?:(?:[Ss]cientific [Ee]\s?-\s?[Rr]esources)|(?:Ed\s?-\s?[Tt]ech [Pp]ress)))|(?:\|url\s*\=\s*edtechpress\.co\.uk)"; added_lines irlike mirrors & !(removed_lines irlike mirrors) )
- I would create a log-only filter at first, and if it does well, ramp it up to warn. – PharyngealImplosive7 (talk) 22:05, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for this. I understand that starting as a long-only filter is common, and I've no objection. WhatamIdoing (talk) 00:20, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

- @WhatamIdoing, Kuru, and PharyngealImplosive7: If there is consensus for deprecation, it could just be added to 869 (hist · log), which might be better than a new filter just for this. Most likely
Deferred to WP:RSN. EggRoll97 (talk) 18:48, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
- @EggRoll97, I don't think that it should be handled through the RSP system. It's not a case of "deprecated at RSN"; instead, it's a case of "banned by policy" (Wikipedia:Verifiability#Wikipedia and sources that mirror or use it being the most relevant policy). The deprecation message wouldn't be appropriate. Instead, I think it needs a message that is specific to Wikipedia:Mirrors and forks. WhatamIdoing (talk) 21:44, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
Requires more information Do you have any diffs to go off of by chance for this? It would be helpful to see this being added in a diff to be able to test a possible filter on one. EggRoll97 (talk) 06:26, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
- Sure. Look at this one. WhatamIdoing (talk) 17:25, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

New users adding sock / block templates to other user's pages
- Task: Disallow new users / IPs from adding block templates including sock blocking templates to users that aren't blocked
- Reason: In general there's almost no reason for any but the most seasoned IPs or new accounts to add block templates that are typically automatically added by the blocking admin. Either a total block of new users adding block templates, or only for non-blocked accounts.
- Diffs: Special:Diff/1184722881 (likely) single-time vandal doing this type of disruption happening on an administrator's page. This user may have been auto-confirmed, so this may need to apply to all non-ECP+ users.
GeorgeMemulous (talk) 23:57, 7 September 2024 (UTC)
- I'm making some regex right now, but what I'm concerned about is that this edit is from over a year ago. Do you have any other more recent examples? Because otherwise, it wouldn't be necessary to create a whole new filter. – PharyngealImplosive7 (talk) 02:11, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- Don't we already have 1157 (hist · log) that does this purpose? Codename Noreste 🤔 Talk 03:00, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- Clearly that didn't stop this particular instance of disruption. Although, I can't think of many times this was added recently. I do know of an LTA that's recently been adding unblock requests to their own pages as an already unblocked account, so maybe that could be added? Either way, disruption is disruption, but if it isn't that common I suppose a filter is unnecessary. GeorgeMemulous (talk) 18:35, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- Just stumbled upon an example from just now of a disruptive editor adding a block template to an unblocked IP's page. See here. Not disallowed by any existing filter. GeorgeMemulous (talk) 23:56, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
- Don't we already have 1157 (hist · log) that does this purpose? Codename Noreste 🤔 Talk 03:00, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- 803 (hist · log) could probably also be adjusted for sleeper accounts like this one. Nobody (talk) 05:44, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
Dismant39 filter
- Task: This filter should prevent IP or new accounts from adding Sidhanta Mahapatra or Siddhanta Mahapatra as spouse to articles other than Rachna Banerjee who he was actually married to in the past. His current wife does not have an article.
- Reason: The Dismant39 sockfarm has been enganging in BLP violations for well over a year, adding Sidhanta Mahapatra as the spouse to a rather large number of Indian actresses. All unsourced (or fake sources) and all completely fake. Besides named accounts, they've been active on some fairly broad IP ranges (I tend to watch 1.39.0.0/16 and 2409:4089::/32), with others in the past. In addition to the spouse, they'll add absurb numbers of children and change the birth name to something. Here's an example of what they've changed Mahapatra's article to - [1]. There's been a fair number of articles semi-protected, but they shift to others as well as just wait for the protection to end. At this point, I think an edit filter is warranted to stop them from continuing their disruption.
- Diffs: For recent examples, see Special:Contributions/2409:4089:2DBA:DB12:2468:7009:971B:7055 and Special:Contributions/Lipikasehul87. The SPI at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Dismant39/Archive may also be helpful.
Ravensfire (talk) 14:53, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
- This looks like an LTA. I would suggest mailing this to the mailing list just so that any regex is kept private from the socks. – PharyngealImplosive7 (talk) 14:36, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

- Got the email - thank you. I'll send an email to the mailing list. I'm putting together some sample edits that ideally would be caught by the filter, and some thoughts from some quick testing I did with your quick example regex. Ravensfire (talk) 14:45, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

Duplicate Disambiguation Entries
- Task: Disallow edits to disambiguation pages that add an entry already on the page.
- Reason: This filter would be useful on long disambiguation pages such as King (disambiguation), where adding a duplicate entry is easy.
- Diffs: Special:Diff/1243174404
Faster than Thunder (talk | contributions) 22:57, 12 September 2024 (UTC)
- Does this happen often? If it happens once every few months occassionally, it seems like a filter isn't worth it. Do you have edits recently done by multiple editors that are duplicate disambiguation entries? – PharyngealImplosive7 (talk) 01:13, 13 September 2024 (UTC)
- I am wondering if there is not a way to provide a pre=save notice to the editor, rather than blocking the edit altogether. BD2412 T 03:12, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

Good day. I previously requested this permission but was declined due to lack of editing time on this account (I worked on an IP previously but have no way to prove this). At the risk of appearing too eager for this permission, I am requesting it again as I now have lengthier editing experience. I have demonstrated experience in AfC, AfD, CSD, draftification, and article creation. I also maintain rollbacker and pending change permissions. I believe I can be help bring down the NPP backlog and have the experience and policy understanding that is necessary to do so accurately. Garsh (talk) 01:31, 7 September 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for volunteering, but in reviewing your editing history I wasn't able to find sufficient experience with the deletion process to feel comfortable granting you the permission at this point in time. I encourage you to spend some time at WP:AFD and make policy based votes to show that you're comfortable evaluating notability. Alternatively, you can still apply to help out at Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation. Hey man im josh (talk) 15:30, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

I want to be able to help out with the next backlog drive, and be able to get into the more maintennance-y tasks of Wikipedia. I have written 340+ articles, and I want to branch out and do something new for once (article creation does get boring after some time). I've participated in several AfDs (for some reason it only shows 6) and initiated multiple AfDs, have used AfC several times (which is also something I want to be able to help with) and have never been known to be uncivil to other editors (I am a host at the Teahouse as well). I also think I'm going to go through the NPP academy, to make sure I use these tools correctly and have more experience from other editors. I'd also rather prefer a trial run, because I want to see what the tool is like and learn how to use it before I go all-in. :) Sir MemeGod :D (talk - contribs - created articles) 15:35, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

I edit AusPol pages, and I'd like to be able to approve edits made to them :) No stress if I need more of a track record of edits - I totally understand. Jy Sandford (talk) 23:44, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

- Not done. With all due respect, 94 edits to the mainspace is simply not enough editing experience for me to determine whether you'll be able to use the right appropriately. Please spend a few months establishing a track record of positive contributions before reapplying, thanks. -Fastily 23:44, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

I have reviewed the criteria for receiving this permission, and feel my contribution history demonstrates an adequate knowledge of creating, expanding, and patrolling articles in accordance to Wikipedia policies. Tvfunhouse (talk) 00:54, 7 September 2024 (UTC)

Heyo, I'm writing to request the Pending Change Reviewer permission. I'm well versed in the use of tools such as RCPatrol and after reading Wikipedia:Reviewing_pending_changes I believe I'd be a good fit for the Pending changes reviewer permission. Thanks for your consideration, Mark MarkRosenbaum (talk) 21:49, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
- Heyo, Just wanted to add that I was recently granted the rollback permission. MarkRosenbaum (talk) 17:38, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

I would like to be able to help with the backlogs present in this area, and feel that I have enough experience to help out. I feel that my track record in this general area is quite good. Thanks, Kingsmasher678 (talk) 19:59, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

Hello hello, I have been a Wikipedian for well over 4 months now, and I feel that I have learned a great many things about the site in terms of editing, content, policies, and conduct that I could have never imagined beforehand. If given this right, I humbly commit to using it to the utmost competent and fair / legitimate nature that I possibly can. Thank you Aliy Dawut (talk) 02:52, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

I have been contributing to pages for four years now, with prior experience in patrolling edit filter log. I would like to get reviewer rights so I can contribute to Wikipedia in more ways than I am able to, presently. Since my last request in July, I've been making a track record of communicating collegially with other editors, in my talk page and elsewhere. I hope you'll consider me. Thank you. — hhypeboyh 💬 • ✏️ 23:11, 13 September 2024 (UTC)

I have a nine or so months of experience on Wikipedia now. If you check my editing history, you will also see my experience at fighting vandalism. I think it would be very useful to have the rollback tool. Thanks. Note that I am also a pending changes reviewer. TheWikiToby (talk) 19:54, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
- Not done I noticed you started actively reverting vandalism a little over a week ago. While I appreciate your enthusiasm, I'd like to see you spend more time gaining experience fighting vandalism before assigning you advanced permissions. Keep up the good work, and consider reapplying in a month. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits (I recommend using tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet which makes this extremely easy).
