[[User:Jurjendevries|Jurjendevries]] No problem, and I agree that I'm not certain, completely, whether they're human or bot spam only accounts. I suspect they're mostly likely bots, though likely controlled by one or more humans, or they're bots but the nefarious human operators behind the spambots employ a team of humans to answer challenge questions for the spambots. I don't think, though, that it could hurt to ''try''. You can either do the GitHub pull request yourself, if you know what to do, or you can file a [[meta:Phabricator|Phabricator]] task specifying the [[mw:Extension:ConfirmEdit|ConfirmEdit]] php variable configuration changes requested (which would be different from whatever the default configuration is. It would be helpful to also link to this thread, too. Hope that helps. |
