Beobachtungsteam kleiner Wikis/IRC

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki
This page is a translated version of the page Small Wiki Monitoring Team/IRC and the translation is 27% complete.

Das Beobachtungsteam kleiner Wikis (SWMT) hat einen IRC-Kanal unter #cvn-swverbinden auf Libera Chat, wo CVNBots möglichen Vandalismus auf diversen kleinen Wikis melden.

Bots

CVNBots

These are the CVNBot (formerly known as SWMTBot) instances, monitoring a lot of wikis each. They all understand the CVNBot commands. Issuing a global list-related command to one of these bots will automatically update the other bots (the bots communicate with each other through a hidden channel).

See Bots of Countervandalism Network for more details.

Eternal thanks to Az1568, Melos and rxy for having operated these bots in the past!

Die LinkWatcher

In #cvn-sw-spamverbinden and #wikimedia-external-linksverbinden there are 'linkwatcher' bots. Bots in this channel are run by Beetstra. Bots have been developed by Shadow1 and Beetstra. Since Shadow1 has retired, the bots are maintained by Beetstra only.

Die Daten werden in einer Datenbank gespeichert. Wenn du bestimmte Informationen brauchst, frage Versageek oder en:User:Beetstra.

The bot exists as a main program, with 10 sub-bots to the 730+ wikimedia channels on irc.wikimedia.org, and 3 reporters on Libera (LiWa3_1, LiWa3_2, and LiWa3_3). The many sub-bots ensure continuous operation (almost operating in real-time), there is too much to read for one reader-bots, and too much to report for one report-bot.

The bots read the diffs from in total 738 wikis on irc.wikimedia.org (see sitematrix, ignoring the specials). The diffs are parsed and external links that are added are reported by the bots. If you want the bot on a specific wiki (I need the IRC channel on irc.wikimedia.org), please contact me on my talkpage). If your wiki has an own channel where the bot could report link additions, or alerts, I can redirect specific messages to specific channels (for examples, see #wikipedia-de-spamverbinden and #cvn-wp-esverbinden).

Befehle

The bots share the database, commanding one will result in being added to the others as well.

Befehl Beschreibung Beispiel
LiWa3_1 user add Benutzername Adds a user to the whitelist (user is still reported, but no 'count' is given anymore) user add Beetstra
LiWa3_1 user del Benutzername Removes a user from the whitelist user del Beetstra
LiWa3_1 link wl add regex Adds a link to the whitelist link wl add \bexample\.com
LiWa3_1 link wl del regex Removes a link from the whitelist link wl del \bexample\.com
LiWa3_1 link rl add regex Adds a link to the redlist link rl add \bexample\.com
LiWa3_1 link rl del regex Removes a link from the redlist link rl del \bexample\.com
LiWa3_1 link nr add regex Adds link to noredir list so as to not further expand link nr add \bexample\.com
LiWa3_1 link nr del regex Removes link from noredir list link nr del \bexample\.com
LiWa3_1 link nr search regex Searches for link in noredir list link nr search \bexample\.com
!info Statistik !info


  • Commands can be issued to one of the other LiWa3 bots as well (LiWa3_2, LiWa3_3, ...). Note that the bot answering may not be the one that is being commanded
  • Whitelist is for 'good' links. Please note that the link-additions by this user are still logged.
  • RedList for links which need attention
  • Blacklist for bad links (on #wikipedia-en-spam these are transferred to AntiSpamBot and reverted, except when the user is whitelisted).

LiWa3 output

The bot gives one line per added link in the format:

  • [[<wiki>:<pagename>]] <diff link> [[<wiki>:User:<user>]] <added link> (<link data>) <counts> (< for wikidata: English descriptor>)

The link may be followed by link concerns ('<link data>'), and will be followed by a set of 2 or 4 numbers ('<counts>'). On Wikidata, the English descriptor is appended.

The <link data> (which is not always present):

  • Whether the link is on a revert list ('BL'), red/monitor list ('RL') or automatic red list ('ARL', where LiWa3 detected that statistics earlier passed some addition threshold) or white list ('WL' - if showing whitelisted links is turned on)
  • STATUS ###: Page status (a.o. the well known '404')
  • REDIR <link>: The site is a redirect site. Redirect target may get a separate set of BL/RL/ARL/WL tags if the redirect target matches rules.
  • Whether the page has tracking data on them:
    • WB (Urchin account number issued by Google)
    • FS (stopForumSpam, an email spam tracking site; the reported percentage is how forumspam evaluates the domain).
    • CB (clickbank)
    • AS (AdSense)
    • PL (Plimus)

The four numbers in <counts>:

  1. how many links did this user add.
  2. how many times was this link added.
  3. how many times did this user add this link. Turns blue when that is higher than 5, turns red when higher than 25. The number may be followed by "!!" (in red), in that case more than 90% of this link was added by this user, "!" in red (more than 66%) or by "?" (more than 33%).
  4. to how many wikipedia did this user add this link. Turns blue when higher than 2, turns red when higher than 5. The number may be followed by "!!" (in red), in that case more than 90% of this link was added interwiki by this user, "!" in red (more than 66%) or by "?" (more than 33%).

Sometimes only two numbers are shown:

  1. how many links did this user add.
  2. how many times was this link added.

That means that either the number of links the user added is larger than the setting largenumberoflinkadditions, or that the number of times the domain was added is larger than the setting largenumberoflinks (see User:LiWa3/Settings). When either reaches that threshold further numerical statistics are generally useless, and are only a strain on the database.

Sometimes the second number is replaced with 'NC', which means that that domain is on the 'do not count list'. That list is used for domains that need to be monitored (including those that are revertlisted) but where the count does not yield any information (e.g. youtube.com, where millions of additions are recorded but where link additions are sometimes reason for concerns, see e.g. en:WP:YOUTUBE).

COIBot

COIBot ('Conflict Of Interest Bot') was originally developed to catch overlaps between usernames with either the page they edit, or with an external link they added. It now also does more sophisticated checks to catch conflicts of interest (as defined on the en-wikipedia, which discourages such edits strongly), and monitors the additions of external links as reported by the LinkWatchers (vide supra).

In short, COIBot reports when:

  • Username overlaps with the pagename the user just edited;
  • Username overlaps with the domain of the external link added;
  • IP of user is close to the IP of the computer the webserver for the domain of the external link is hosted on;
  • IP/IP-range/Username is blacklisted for a certain pagename;
  • IP/IP-range/Username is blacklisted for a certain domain;
  • The domain/IP of domain is on COIBot's monitorlist.

Further:

  • Users/IPs who get caught accidentally, or for who the conflict of interest has been discussed (and been resolved) can be whitelisted against a page or domain.
  • Users/IPs can be whitelisted completely, so none of their edits will be recorded.

Anmerkungen:

  • COIBot automatically puts links which get caught because of IP/Username overlap on its monitorlist. So every next addition will be recorded. This 'automonitoring' of the link can be disabled for certain links. After this it will still report the link when COIBot calculates overlap, but will not put the domain on the monitorlist afterwards.
  • COIBot automatically puts links that have been reported to English Wikipedia Spam Project (in the spamlink template), or been blacklisted on one of the local blacklists, or on the meta-blacklist, on its monitorlist. Hence, if a link gets blacklisted on e.g. the Spanish wikipedia, and someone then decides to start adding it to another wikipedia, COIBot will report the additions of that link.

Befehle

Most commands on COIBot are 'cloak-controlled'. If you have a cloak, and that cloak is on COIBot's trusted list, you can perform the commands below that are tagged with an asterisk. Everyone can use the other commands. To be added to the trusted-list of COIBot, ask Dirk Beetstra.

  • Some commands can be given without directing the command at COIBot (i.e. 'research link example.com' in stead of 'COIBot research link example.com').
  • When a link gets added which is on the monitorlist, gets matched with the username/IP that is adding the link, COIBot also creates a linkreport for that link in in English Wikipedia and in its Meta subpage (bottom of list).

Further synonyms can be added by adapting the relevant parameters (numsynonyms, fromsynonym#, and tosynonym#) in User:COIBot/Settings.
