[16:57] Hey, anything I can do to help with this spamming issue on help.ubuntu.com? [18:25] imnichol: thanks for reporting it, I hadn't seen it [18:26] I'll submit a ticket with IS to see if there's anything they can do to clean it up [18:34] ok, submitted ticket 27950 and responded on list [18:34] there are thousands of pages x_x [18:39] Yeah :( [18:39] Some of the accounts actually map to launchpad accts too [18:39] can see here http://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecentChanges [18:39] I get notifications of changes, it started on the 23rd [18:40] Must have a few thousand emails huh [18:40] yep [18:40] I suspect that the date that it started is not an accident [18:41] ~4,400 emails [18:41] Ouch [18:41] they go into a folder, I didn't notice [18:41] I usually browse through the folder every couple of weeks to make sure there aren't wiki wars or something going on [18:42] I wonder if IS can just ip ban the offenders [18:43] that's my hope, not sure what to do about new accounts being created though [18:43] Or their netblock [18:43] Could require that accounts be manually approved by an admin if they're created from that netblock [18:43] Dont know if moinmoin has that capability [18:43] yeah, they have logs so they can figure out what makes the most sense [18:44] Well, if the solution requires any manual work, I'm available [18:44] thanks for that :) [18:44] My IRL job has a log review component [18:45] So I'm used to mindless painful stuff like that :D [18:45] me too, what do you do? [18:45] Infosec [18:46] * pleia2 nods [18:46] IIRC you're an admin right? [18:46] yeah [18:46] I think I've done a few weekly news things about you ;) [18:46] sysadmin on the openstack project, so all that work is open source too [18:47] Yeah that's it. That's really cool [18:47] makes it good for writing about :D [18:47] I'm super jelly [18:47] I enjoy it a lot [18:48] I imagine. I'll keep my security stuff though [18:49] I'm more of a "break stuff" than "build stuff" kind of person [19:01] hehe
