Spam detection should ignore people in certain groups #5

Closed elifoster closed 9 years ago

elifoster commented 9 years ago

People in the Editor and Reviewer groups should not trigger spam detection.

Telshin commented 9 years ago

Which spam detection are you referring to?

elifoster commented 9 years ago

I believe the last one I got was the page blanking one, but those groups really should be ignored for all of it.

I assume you're talking about the filters you have configured in Special:AbuseFilter. As best I can tell, Abuse Filter doesn't provide any user rights to allow bypassing its filters. Any exceptions would have to be written into the logic of the filters themselves. If this was previously not the case, then I'm curious what had been configured to allow that type of exception to be made.

If you want this behavior on the wiki now, then the current filters should be edited to include something along the lines of & !("sysop" in user_groups)

We did not have an abuse filter before we moved to Gamepedia.

That'd be great, of course, if it was reviewer and editor rather than sysop.

Sure, you should be able to edit the filters at Special:AbuseFilter as you see fit. (You are the admin, after all!)

Oh, awesome, I shall do that then.
