Hi, and welcome. I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/265 by changing structured data file metadata like author or date. Such edits by anonymous users are considered to be vandalism; that is one of many reasons to create an account and log in (and in this case wait four full days after creation here). Also, if you already have an account, what is your account name? How do you know the year was 2006?   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 14:04, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@DrhSR: Hi, and welcome. I am sorry to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/153 by trying to cross-wiki upload png images as a new user, and other filters. Such uploads of png images are not allowed at all. The following applies to each image. You indicated it's your own work. Usually when someone uploads a png image, it's a copyright violation taken from the web. Please upload the full-size original of it per COM:HR, including any metadata, but if you were not the original image designer or photographer, that person may need to post permission on their official website or social media, or send it via VRT with a carbon copy to you. Also, it will look fuzzy when scaled down (due to design decisions discussed in phab:T192744), so you may want to upload a jpg or svg version, too. If you can't get compliant licenses, the images may still be uploaded to English Wikipedia in compliance with en:WP:F because we don't allow Fair Use here. If you use our Upload Wizard instead, you should be able to avoid filter 153.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 23:28, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Both of them snapped these family fotos, but both of them are dead. The fotos are from 1940 and 1941.
Wolfgang Graf von Görtz auf Wrisbergholzen (* Berlin-Wilmersdorf, 12.03.1925 - † _ _ 1941 Berlin), war das jüngste von drei Kindern des Grafen Rudolf Johann von Schlitz, genannt von Görtz, (1884–1933) und dessen jüdischstämmiger Ehefrau Elsa Meyer (* 4. März 1882–1968). Seine Mutter wurde 1944 in das Ghetto Theresienstadt deportiert. Sein älterer Bruder Eberhard verstarb bereits 1951 im Alter von 40 Jahren.
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlitz_(Adelsgeschlecht)
More information on the history of my family:
I am the son of Vera Schiever my mother, who gave me the fotos and all rights of the fotos and documents with the family album.
The fotos are family fotos with my grandfather Wolfgang, Graf von Görtz auf Wrisbergholzen, his children Vera Schiever, today Vera Erbe, her brother Wolfgang Schiever, who is already dead and my grandmother Ottilie Schiever, her mother, also dead, the wife of my grandfather, Graf von Görtz auf Wrisbergholzen.
My grandfather, Wolfgang, Graf von Görtz auf Wrisbergholzen has been murdered by the SS in 1941 in Berlin.
And his daughter from his first marriage also has been murdered by SS.
His mother Elsa Meyer (* 4. März 1882–1968) is jewish, she survived the deportation and extermination camp Theresienstadt.
Up to now there was no trial in germany on these fatal crimes to give the family peace and justice.
In Germany exist no documentary, no commemoration, no apology from any institution or person on these crimes. Not even a hint in any paper or document. - Nothing!
With big luck and the help from friends could my grandmother Ottilie Schiever, wife of Wolfgang, Graf von Görtz auf Wrisbergholzen, hide and mask their mutual children Vera and Wolfgang Schiever from 1940 to 1945, when the NS regime was smashed by the anti Hitler coalition.
My uncle Wolfgang Schiever died in 1996 by brain cancer - he was radio opertor in the german army "Bundeswehr". Wolfgang was also engaged in westgerman intelligence and in the end of his life a project manager of the Telecom agency of Germany in Bonn. Wolfgang was international project manager of the Frequency Management Working Group (WG FM) of the ERC - this project was responsible on the internation standardisation of radiofrequencies.
See:
...
BACKGROUND
A Project Team of the Frequency Management Working Group (WG FM) of the ERC under the
chairmanship of Mr Schiever, who passed away before the work on the plan could be finalised, has
developed a frequency plan, now known as the Schiever Plan to honour his engagement in developing this
plan for TFTS. The WG FM and the ERC has appointed the European Radiocommunications Office as
the plan management body. The Schiever Plan employs a cellular frequency pattern covering the whole
of continental Europe. Services have been introduced and ground station infrastructure is now being
deployed by administrations and telecommunications operators across Europe.
Co-ordination between administrations in introducing frequency assignments and in making any changes
to the plan is essential, therefore the FMWG has also developed a set of procedures for implementing
assignments and modifying the plan and which define the technical criteria upon which the plan is based.

My mother Vera Erbe and me, we never ever got any of these information up to now. It is just curiosity and research work, I did, which gave us the truth and facts in the last two month.
So we both hope the after such long time of hide and darken of these crimes by the SS state our father and grandfather becomes a little presence in this world.
Thank you

Same text in german:
Ich bin der Sohn von Vera Schiever meiner Mutter, die mir die Fotos mit unserem Familienalbum geschenkt hat. Meine Mutter hat mir Volllmacht und alle Rechte für die Dokumente und Fotos erteilt.
Die Fotos sind Familienfotos mit meinem Opa Wolfgang, Graf von Görtz auf Wrisbergholzen, seinen Kindern Vera Schiever, heute Vera Erbe ihrem Bruder Wolfgang Schiever, der ist verstorben, und meiner Oma Ottilie Schiever, der Mutter von Vera Erbe und Lebenspartnerin von meinem Opa, Graf von Görtz auf Wrisbergholzen.
Mein Opa Wolfgang, Graf von Görtz auf Wrisbergholzen wurde 1941 von der SS in Berlin ermordet.
Eine weitere Tochter meines Opas, aus vorheriger Ehe, wurde ebenfalls von der SS ermordet.
Seine Mutter Elsa Meyer (* 4. März 1882–1968) ist jüdisch.
Elsa Meyer wurde 1944 in das Ghetto Theresienstadt deportiert.
Bis heute wurde zu diesem Mord kein Verfahren in Gang gesetzt, Recht wurde nicht gesprochen.
Nichts in dieser Welt erwähnt überhaupt, das mein Opa Wolfgang, Graf von Görtz auf Wrisbergholzen jemals existiert hat, das die SS seinen Kindern den Vater und seiner Frau den Gatten genommen hat.
Nichts erwähnt, das meine Oma mit Hilfe von Freunden und lieben Menschen meine Mutter und ihren Bruder Wolfgang Schiefer vor dem sicheren Tod durch die SS bewahrt hat.
Wolfgang Schiever starb 1996 an einem Gehirntumor, verursacht durch seine Tätigkeit aus Funker bei der Bundeswehr. Zuletzt war mein Onkel als internationaler Projektmanager der Telekom in Bonn, für die weltweite Vereinheitlichung der Funkfrequenzen tätig. Wolfgang Schiever wurde an seinem Wohnort auf dem Friedhof in Bonn Bad Godesberg beerdigt.

Edit kind: Undoing an edit that incorrectly changed the caption. The abuse filter said that "You tried to change the first line on a file page." This happened both with a multi-undo for both the page text and the caption, and for an undo only affecting the caption (an undo affecting only the page text went through properly).
Comments: I suspect the abuse filter is applying to the caption in the same way as the page text... but that doesn't make sense, since the caption is only one line (and doesn't support templates or section headers as far as I can tell). Pokechu22 (talk) 00:53, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, looking at Special:AbuseLog/10870632, old_wikitext has the page text followed by the structured data, but new_wikitext is my edited structured data followed by the original structured data (and that one doesn't reflect the edit to the page text at all, either).

Hmm, I wouldn't consider my account to be new (2,911 edits, account created on 19 April 2014), though I haven't been particularly active lately (my last edit was in April prior to the attempted undo). Is that expected behavior? Pokechu22 (talk) 01:16, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, it using autopatroller makes sense. I'm not going to request permission for it for now since I'm pretty inactive so having someone check my edits seems reasonable, though. The main reason why I was confused was that my first read of T298672 made it sound like the weird new_wikitext behavior was only for anonymous users, but instead I guess new_wikitext is wrong for everyone and the edit filter itself only affects non-anonymous (/non-autopatroller) users. For that specific page I was able to just manually change the caption, though reverting more complex structured data changes would be more difficult; if I do happen to see any more then I'll revert it at COM:ANV. (I mainly find vandalism through emails for page changes, for context.) Pokechu22 (talk) 01:38, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Pokechu22: Fair enough, but I hope you meant "report it at COM:ANV". Reports of other stuff than pure vandalism can be made at the other more appropriate subboards of COM:AN or that page itself.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 01:42, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like this might be phab:T298672, but I'm not an anonymous user, so something else is probably going on too? I've mentioned this over there too. Pokechu22 (talk) 01:12, 1 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Fl.schmitt I granted autopatrol rights to your bot account that you can make the test edits for the bot approval. GPSLeo (talk) 17:20, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@GPSLeo: Thanks a lot - but I just saw that my report was quite "premature"... it was my mistake starting test runs before my bot was autoconfirmed (which will be the case on Sep 10). Sorry for the fuss... Fl.schmitt (talk) 18:25, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Depending on the exact task only autoconfirmed might not be sufficient and autopatrol would be needed anyway for the test run. Later it is part of the bot group. GPSLeo (talk) 18:33, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I had an idea for an abuse filter for stopping F10 vandalism, but I don't want to talk about it publicly due to w:BEANS concerns. What next steps should I take? All the Best -- Chuck Talk 15:49, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'd be glad to talk about it but I guess it's better to have a conversation with admins with demonstrated experience in abuse filters. @Ankry? Regards, Aafi (talk) 16:32, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You can email me if you wish to receive my opinion. I think, we have no private discussion venue specifically for admins. Note, that I am sceptic to use abusefilters in order to prevent uploads as they often generate quite significant number of false positives. I am also not an active contributor to filters.

Add a filter to block the addition of the "No permission" template for new accounts

[edit]

Based on the situation where disruptive accounts are indiscriminately adding the "No permission" template, resulting in many files being deleted (Commons:Administrators' noticeboard#Unusual Deletion of Images of Vietnamese Artists), I have written a filter to help prevent this issue. Feel free to adjust it as needed. Thank you.

!("confirmed" in user_rights)
& user_age < 432000 /* 5 days */
& user_editcount < 50
& page_namespace == 6
& action == "edit"
& added_lines irlike "{{\s*no permission"

I'd definitely  Support this. Regards, Aafi (talk) 16:16, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good,  Support @Aafi, on a slightly unrelated note, can you help me with the F10 filter? All the Best -- Chuck Talk 16:17, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Alachuckthebuck: I'm not sure what F10 is. If you'd like me to help write a filter, you can explain the situation more clearly on my talk page and provide some examples. I might be able to assist. Plantaest (talk) 16:22, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, I was mistaken, you were texting Aafi, not me. Sorry. Plantaest (talk) 16:27, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Alachuckthebuck & @Plantaest, I guess COM:CSD#F10 but I've less than zero experience in abuse filters. Regards, Aafi (talk) 16:30, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No problem, I didn't make the separation clear, but to answer @Plantaest's question, Aafi is correct. The problem I'm trying to solve is linked to a certain LTA, but also a more common pattern of abuse by promotional accounts. If you look at the upload log, you can see the Pattern I'm referring to.

@Alachuckthebuck: Overall, I don't quite understand the issue. I think an admin on Commons with knowledge about the abuse filter might be able to help you. Good luck. Plantaest (talk) 16:50, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Oppose - Deletions are carried out only by admins. By definition, then, if the underlying concern here is "resulting in many files being deleted," the concern is the admin that inappropriately deleted the images, not with the tagging. It is, in fact, a relatively common scenario for sister project users to notice an issue with an image in an article they are working on and to come to the Commons where either a) they have never edited before (first attachment, user_age issue) or b) rarely edit (user_editcount issue) and to add a tag. This filter, premised on a single incident (proposer fails to provide multiple instances to establish this as a perennial issue needing a filter) would prevent those good faith and necessary tags, and do more harm than good. Indeed, again, admins do the deletions. If a file is inappropriately deleted, the issue to be addressed is the admin, not the erroneous tagging. Эlcobbola talk 17:21, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Elcobbola: I think your opinion makes sense. However, in reality, this has happened to many accounts: Special:Contributions/Nguyễn Thanh Vân dana, Special:Contributions/Nguyễn Minh Đào 1996, Special:Contributions/Vô Danh 69, Special:Contributions/Funny Man 1999, Special:Contributions/Thich an che, including some that have been engaging in this vandalism for months. According to the Vietnamese Wikipedia community, this is a sockpuppet with a long-standing grudge against the community, and it is certain that this sockpuppet will continue similar actions in the future. Therefore, I think we can negotiate two options:
  • Option 1: Reduce the threshold of user_age and user_editcount, and possibly remove the "confirmed" condition?
  • Option 2: There is no need to set "Disallow" for this filter, but simply "Warn" or do nothing. In this way, the Vietnamese Wikipedia community can help you monitor the behavior of this sockpuppet through the filter log and report if it is detected. This is a win-win cooperation.
I think it's not easy for a very new account to know about the "No permission" template, and a friend of mine (User:Băng Tỏa) said that adding the "No permission" template is the easiest way for a file to be deleted, compared to creating a DR.
I hope you can change your mind if possible. Thank you. Plantaest (talk) 18:21, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is not responsive to my point. It takes an admin to delete a file. If files are being inappropriately deleted, the issue lies with the admin. Even if there is an LTA whose socks use bogus no permission templates as their modus operandi, it changes nothing: it is the duty of admins to assess the validity of tagging. If an admin is acting as a credulous automaton, their rights should be removed. The solution is not to prevent new or low-volume contributors from expressing concerns, and a mere tracking filter ("no need to set 'Disallow'") is redundant to reviewing Category:Media missing permission.

I think @Krd needs to explain what went wrong on their end that caused them to delete these files. If the admin is the problem, then how did one of the most experienced admins on commons make this mistake? No one is perfect, but I think figuring out what went wrong here will take some time.

@Elcobbola: Okay, I understand your point of view. However, when I went through that category, I noticed that most of the people adding the 'No permission' template are experienced members, which might cause the admin to lower their guard against suspicious accounts. Therefore, if there were a tracking filter, it would help the admin easily monitor unusual activities if they occur, as this filter would only track very new accounts. This would be an additional tool to make the admin's review work easier. I believe having it would be better, as not having it could potentially lead to more mistakes.

@اسيل 2000: Hi, and welcome. I regret to inform you that you have triggered Special:AbuseFilter/281. Please read Mediawiki:Abusefilter-disallowed-pdf-new-user-upload again. You have also triggered Special:AbuseFilter/12 by removing two templates from an image page as a new user. Please don't do that.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 14:00, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
