What area is the target of this partial block? I don't see any defined parameters.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 19:00, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What a fail on my part: this is the block I'm talking about.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 19:01, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ponyo it just means you can't create an account from that range. If you're asking because you want to do something else with the block, feel free! :) HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 19:10, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The range is being a total PITA today. Ugh.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 19:18, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I know right! They were creating ... unhelpful accounts earlier (hence the block). There's way too much collateral for a hard block but if you wanted to make it anon only/account creation blocked for a little while feel free. We can always put the partial block back later.

It seems to have tapered off, so I'll leave everything as is for now. That way I don't have to remember to reinstate the partial block.-- Ponyo^{bons mots} 19:32, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've been dealing with vandalism for a while, such as warning editors, sometimes reverting edits, and checking the abuse log, and have even made some reports to AIV which were responded to by a block. I'm curious what my chances of passing an RfA are. Faster than Thunder (talk | contributions) 14:23, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) Hello @Faster than Thunder! I am not an admin, but I doubt that you would pass RfA. Many RfA voters are looking for candidates with 10k+ edits, and you have less than 2000, most of which are semi-automated. Also, what would you use the tools for? —asparagusus (interaction) ^sprouts! 14:39, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
