It would be rather easy to find those number, just need to parse the upload
logs. (grab a dev or file a DBQ request
https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/DBQ )

I submitted https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31469 when 1.18
was rolled out. Is there any way that we can get this issue fixed for the
1.18 tarball?

Uh, Creating sleeper accounts from good IPs lettting them go stale beyond
CU retention, and you have an infinite number of accounts you can then use
to skip past the softblocks on tor and create havoc. Anything short of a
hard block wont stop open proxy abuse.

And any kind of account creation block will cause issues with users who
work across multiple projects as SUL auto account creation is also blocked.

Prior to TOR being enabled we need to be able to flag both logged in and
logged out edits made via TOR.

The abuse filter has no way of identifying TOR exit nodes, thus it cannot
be used for this. Some developer will need to interface with the TOR
blocking code and use the same TOR identification methods to ID and label
both logged in and logged out edits made via TOR.
My example means that unless TOR is hard blocked attackers can create 6
accounts per day on there home IP and just wait till they go stale and use
6 attack accounts per day. There isn't a need for infinite accounts, just
that soft blocking is pointless in this case
