Protected edit request on 4 February 2024

Can you please add this to the title blacklist?

# Editnotice pseudospace
Template:Editnotices\/.* <noedit|errmsg=titleblacklist-custom-editnotice>

This is to prevent abusive creation of unnessecary editnotices. See the logs for this IP address. Thank you. 143.44.165.182 10:56, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

Not done this isn't occurring often enough to stop new users from using this feature (your example is even 4 months old). — xaosflux Talk 12:36, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

.*\bkleshkreikne\b.*		<newaccountonly|antispoof>

Hi. I'm kleshkreikne requesting that I add my username to the Wikimedia global title blacklist because of repeated personal attacks towards me by the "BMX on WheeIs" LTA. (1, 2, 3). As you can tell, they've tried to make death threats using my username and vandalized my user talk page on en.wiki. The only way for this to work is by adding my name to the global title blacklist. It's greatly appreciated. Thanks! kleshkreikne. t 05:02, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

@kleshkreikne What is your previous account and experience through the wikis? It is unusual for someone with 386 global edits to be involved in these areas and to be having an LTA in a xwiki battle. I feel that there is a whole back story here that is not being revealed or addressed. I feel that it would be better for you to privately talk to a steward and see if they will agree to add your username to the blacklist. I don't feel comfortable doing it.  — billinghurst sDrewth 10:06, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
This can be archived/declined, classic good hand/bad hand accounts. User now locked. – Ajraddatz (talk) 05:54, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

"Transphobic"

.*transphobic.*       <newaccountonly|antispoof>

Came across this in some filter logs, and decided to take a look through gUser (see here. This type of username has been used 3 times in the same day to create justifications for discrimination, as well as a few incidents with the lowercase of "transphobic" instead of "Transphobic". This being part of a username seems..unhelpful? Disruptive? Intentionally provocative? EggRoll97 (talk) 01:50, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

"Nate Higgers"

.*nate.*higger.*		<newaccountonly|antispoof>

or

.*nate.*higger.*		<newaccountonly>

I omitted the "s" on purpose, as at least one account seemed to omit it. There seem to be 50 accounts matching this regex, with one created every couple of months (the most recent one being Special:CentralAuth/NateHiggers69420666, which prompted me to come here). It's not very common, but false positives are sufficiently unlikely that I would suggest blacklisting it anyways. —‍Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 18:08, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Not sure antispoof is really necessary here, but a but of gUser search suggests this might be useful. ~~~~

You may well be right, I don't know the tradeoffs re enabling antispoof for these entries. Feel free to implement without antispoof and I can come back if I notice someone trying to get around it in a way antispoof can detect. —‍Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 00:35, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

Unarchived; I just saw another one of these. No need for antispoof if you don't think it's needed. —‍Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 14:47, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
