The report was misleading, not reporting limited editors only. I fixed it and restricted it to limited users created less than 1 month ago.

Please test it at least, although with an average 200 accounts created per day, I know you cannot fully keep up with it. The same report will allow to indicate spam accounts to SpamBrainz later on.

Potential false positives and delete action.

yvanzo: Would be nice if "delete" led back to report, but I can open in new tabs for now I guess.

yvanzo: I don't know what you mean by "false positives". The report is not a spam filter in itself, as all (new) users will be in that report at some point. E.g., https://musicbrainz.org/user/Jamilahmusic seems to be an artist-made account and I have no reason to doubt that it's legit.

Do you want links with target blank?

Naw. I really dislike that. I'd rather Ctrl-click.

Also, as soon as there's a verified e-mail address, they'll have an account on Discourse. Would it at all be possible to create a link to Discourse profile? (It doesn't seem like it can be inferred from just the username though. :( )
This is not a report of spam accounts, this is about newly created users and last month limited users. It should just help to kick easily spotted spam accounts out very early.

Sure, I can provide additional data such as any relevant editing/voting stats, discourse account, and so on.

Not sure what you want me to look for wrt "false positives" then. :) People that are "older" than month and/or not a beginner user?

yvanzo: Edit, vote, and maybe OAuth key counts would be good? (Incl. everything, incl. abstain votes etc.)

False positives are just not-limited user accounts (might be at the end of the report).

(E.g., maybe someone creates an account just to sign up on meb.o, cb.o, lb.o, ... - so may never have edits or votes, but may have OAuth keys.)
I'm not sure it's necessary for us to stringify/prettify $err there, since the quote op is already overloaded for DatabaseError to display the query and params. so maybe we should not catch things there
