Question about open proxy

At the open proxy report page, I sometimes see that a result is overturned. The bot's initial report says "No open proxy" and then a clerk concludes the reported ip is open proxy. How do clerks judge whether it is an OP or not after the first bot report? --Appletrees (talk) 16:54, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for the detailed information. Dealing with open proxy is really a nightmare as your expression. I was so curious as to how result can be different from first report. I visited to file some suspicious ip editors and one third of which are open proxy users. I really appreciate your time and effort. Regards. --Appletrees (talk) 16:17, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Need help..again

Hi, SkierRMH,

I have uploaded about 25 images to Wikipedia and, except for Image:Hardy boysUBdeprivation house.jpg (thanks for your help with that one), haven't had much of problem...until today, BetacommandBot has tagged 4 of the images that I have uploaded, saying, "there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid"(click here to view full comment) I not sure what I have done wrong, because I used what it says to use here:Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline#Non-template,

Keep up the good work,

Thanks,

Wow, I just noticed, you seem to have the same problom, with User:BetacommandBot!

usernames

I just learned something. I used to think that corporate names as user names was not allowed. Many people think that. Upon reading official policy, this is not the case. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Usernames#Company.2Fgroup_names where it says "Use of a company or group name as a username is not explicitly prohibited, but it is not recommended, and depending on the circumstances may be seen as a problem."

Should we not block usernames that are corporate names? Or should we require proof that they are users who are company employees? Archtransit (talk) 16:54, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

A question re images and SOURCE of image

Hi I trust you've been well. I edit a lot of film noir articles and I see many images are being deleted. Thank God not mine because I learned from Blofeld how to do it right last year & he has some great templates he shared with me. Now someone at Wiki has gone completely BONKERS and is trying to delete images just because the name of the ARTICLE is not included in the title of the Fair use rationale. This is quite frustrating. Common sense should prevail here.

But to my question: I do add a rationale to the images being deleted but often I cannot find the SOURCE of the image. Will the image be deleted because the image does not have a source? I hope I've been clear on my question. Of course another thing I can do is just let them all be deleted (I have a good list on my user page) and them add the images again later...I guess I'll can wait two months. Let me know what you think. Best Luigibob (talk) 06:21, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Betacommand

Hi, Blofeld pointed me in your direction. I would have taken this to WP:ANI but I don't want to get shouted down by the betacommand supporters brigade again. Betacommandbot has been malfunctioning, tagging loads of articles for deletion but not notifying the Article talk page or the uploader talk page. Examples

1. this edit. no notification here Talk:History of the Chicago Bears
2. Image:ItuzaingoLogo.gif, Image:GimnasiaCU.gif, Image:Laflorida.gif, Image:GrupoUniversitario.gif + at least 20 more, all tagged for deletion with no notification on my talkpage.
3. Image:Ahitienetumadre.jpg tagged for deletion, no notification on Blof's talkpage.

I think it's well out of order that many of the 20,000+ images tagged in the last run will be destroyed without any notification on the uploader/article talk page. I'm slowly trawling through at manual speed but I'm only at Ah and I've ignored virtually everything thats not a coin, banknote, sports logo or somehow Argentina or football related and they are all up for deletion on Tuesday.

Re: February 13

We have a problem. It seems that I can't get large lists of articles properly anymore. It's not a bug in the bot because the same problem happens when I try to get the list with AWB. I get only 2215 pages when I make the list from Category:Album covers. This causes the bot to work incorrectly because it needs the list of album covers refreshed on a daily basis. Do you make lists from large categories in AWB without problems? Jogers (talk) 10:55, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

I also suspected that it may be related to the internet connection because it didn't happen before and I'm connected through a router since recently. Let me know what you will find out. Jogers (talk) 21:16, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Coltrane-Simpsons.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Coltrane-Simpsons.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:21, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

More question about OP

Hi, SkierRMH. I have more question about open proxy because I'm very very ignorant of denoting bot results. Some of ip addresses I reports to WP:OP says "Interesting ports on xx.xxx.xx.xxx" under NMap section, and which means that the bot detect something unusual? I also don't know about "tcp open", and "tcp filtered unknown". I copy and paste the information regarding Interesting ports on ips at NMap from the bot result. Can you take a look at the below table? Thanks.--Appletrees (talk) 21:10, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Deleted images

Hi, I did some work adding FURs to around 500 images earlier this week. Many were uploaded by this user User talk:Machocarioca. I added FURs to 200 odd film related images he uploaded before his apparent retirement, I only found a handfull where I couldn't do a FUR due to lack of details of the source. Perhaps you could look through some of the deleted images on his talkpage and see if they are salvageable, I imagine that he included source details on them too, I would do it myself but I don't have admin powers.

Unblocking Tor

Hi again SkierRMH. Thanks for your previous response. I prefer to keep conversations together so you may wish to reply to this message here or it might be better moved to WP:OP. I have found myself undoing a number of your recent Tor unblocks (after just a few hours and after proper verification). Examples: [3] [4] [5]. Some of these nodes have extensive histories. Just as some Tor nodes are only Tor for a day, some Tor nodes are not Tor for only a day. I suspect you may have unblocked these nodes during a short downtime, while they were switched off for the night, or while they were using round-robin on their available IPs. Or I wonder if the method you use to check is 100% reliable. To try and help with this problem I have started adding the node fingerprint to Tor block summaries. It is very informative to Google the fingerprint, as they only remain in Google for a few days, they lead to pages which display graphs of the uptime, and they indicate any other IPs the node might be using. What I'd like to suggest is that you Google for these fingerprints, and that Tor nodes (especially the ones which have been repeatedly blocked) should not be unblocked immediately, but should be monitored over the period of about a week. If they are consistently Tor they should probably remain blocked. Thanks. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 13:19, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

I'd say that 3 out of about 1200 isn't "a number of" - but I do agree that adding the TOR footprint is a very good idea - that gives an easy history to refer back to. I'm using both of the tools that are on the OP page to check - and yes, I've left a many of them that did have long edit histories (or histories of on/off/on/off) as blocked. Beign able to check via the fingerprint for 'repeat offenders' is probably the best way to keep track of those that may even be toggling the TOR to bypass this. SkierRMH (talk) 19:22, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

There's actually a few more than that, but apart from one they have all been your unblocks (easily explainable as you have done some good work unblocking loads). On some of them it's beginning to look like we're wheel-warring, so I thought I'd get in touch to get this working together. You should see some of KrimpBot's edits revert-warring with itself - open, not open, open, not open... Thanks again. -- zzuuzz ^(talk) 19:33, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Yes, I did notice the KrimpBot appeared to be a main "player" in this, and I'm very hesitant to take a bot's "word" on some of those things. There was one of the pages where I think there was about 10 on/off's by it - as the only edits on the page, and it didn't look like there was even an edit made from the TOR node! Will keep an eye out for the others, and agree that keeping a fingerprint attached to the offender is perhaps the best way to keep a history on them. SkierRMH (talk) 19:37, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

Unblocking tor

I've run across a couple of IPs you recently unblocked as "not tor" however as of today they are tor and checkuser shows they are being used by an abusive sockpuppeteer (Spotteddogsdotorg (talk · contribs)). What is the basis for your unblock as "not tor"? 193.170.194.42 (talk · contribs) for example. Thatcher 14:30, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

https://www.ippages.com/us/?ip=193.170.194.42

When I unblock as "not TOR" they show up under two checks; Kewlio.net & ippages.com; as not a TOR account. The problem is, as you know, that some of these are one time only users & go off TOR after a while, while some of these are off&on users that do this most likely to circumvent checks such as this. When there's a history of not only TOR but 'sock' or other grievous problems I leave them blocked (& if I remember, put a note on the talk page). However, I tend to give the benefit of the doubt & unblock when they're not showing a bad history & they are not listed as TOR on the usual checks. SkierRMH (talk) 18:43, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
