AIV helperbot information

HBC AIV helperbot14 assists with the management of vandalism reports. Edit the following parameters in the page header to control the bot's behavior:

RemoveBlocked: On to enable automatic removal of blocked users from the list. Any other value will disable this functionality (only in cases of bot malfunctions, please).
MergeDuplicates: On to enable automatic merging of multiple reports of the same person. Any other value will disable this functionality.
AutoMark: On to enable automatic marking of users with special IPs or membership in categories as defined at User:HBC AIV helperbot/Special IPs. Any other value will disable this functionality.
FixInstructions: On to enable automatic repair of the reporting instruction HTML comments in the User-reported section of the page, as defined at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism/instructions. Any other value will disable this functionality.
AutoBacklog: On to enable the automatic switching on or off of the {{adminbacklog}} message. Any other value will disable this functionality. Associated parameters are:
- AddLimit: The number of vandalism reports at which the {{adminbacklog}} message will be made visible.
- RemoveLimit: The number of vandalism reports at which the backlog message will be disabled ({{noadminbacklog}}).

Protection

I've protected AIV for 24hrs because of IP-hopping disruption affecting the bot (cc bot op @Mdann52). I'm happy to extend it if necessary but I'd prefer to play it safe with protection here. Cheers, Giraffer (talk) 21:43, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This should now be sorted and future disruption of this type shouldn't lead to the edit history getting polluted. Thanks for the help. Mdann52 (talk) 19:33, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Would someone mind adding a report for 75.168.193.222 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log), since the page is protected at the moment? Just look at latest contrib and filter log...edit filter people might be interested in the most recent edit as well. 35.139.154.158 (talk) 00:40, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
