Anti-vandalism functionality has now been deployed in Phabricator for a while. After adjusting the parameters in response to a few initial issues and letting it run over the weekend, I'm now fairly confident in the algorithm. It should reliably detect and disable accounts which are doing automated edits (except for the bots that we have white-listed ). In addition, it should be unlikely to affect users due to normal user activity like task submission / editing / commenting, etc. When a user account is disabled due to antivandalism, a notification is posted into the phabricator event feed[1]. If any account is disabled due to a false positive, then any phabricator admin may re-enable the account in the usual way within phabricator's 'manage user' UI.
If anyone has any questions, or notices a problem, please let me know! [1] https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/feed/query/all/ _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
