mayhem: A question via Mastodon - “@musicbrainz I stumbled upon Music Story, a commercial music metadata service. Out of curiosity, do they have a relationship with #MusicBrainz other than including it in their list of external identifiers?”
I said it’s the first I’d heard of it, but I’d ask :)

Wow, I didn't realize even AMG was asking for donations
bitmap, aerozol, yvanzo : opinion on MBS-14087 ? Having banned spammer subscribers is effectively harmless, but I guess some people might be bothered by the number being "fake"?
I guess I’m not against it in principle, but is it a good use of dev time? Though I suppose it would also be good to completely silo spammer accounts/not have them linked to other entities in any way
yvanzo[m]
I would avoid doing that, as spammer flag is a temporary measure before deleting the account, false positive would hurt.

I thought we are keeping all spammer accounts, for some kind of possible future anti-spam training?
yvanzo[m]
thus temporary

I’m not sure I flag anyone as spammer that isn’t definitely a spammer, but I suppose it’s possible
yvanzo[m]
It was also supposed to give a delay for complaints. False positive are just a misclick away.

I think bitmap had the idea of having a cron option to delete forum accounts from spammers that had been marked as such for a while
Although I guess we'd need to have a way to indicate how long they've been marked as spammers in that case :)

yvanzo: yes those docstrings can be removed.
probably forgot to do that when we changed it to use requests.
yvanzo[m]
shouldn't these be fixed instead?
lucifer[m]
sure, can update them too. i think the request ConnectionErrors are obvious and provide little value in the docs and also there are a lot of those if we want to document them all.
Just noticed that I was also fixing the docs in the PR #166. :D
lucifer: Do you any idea why “JenkinsExpected — Waiting for status to be reported” does show up? I can’t find any repository webhook about it, neither any occurrences of `ci.metabrainz` or `jenkins` in the repository.

yvanzo: i was looking at the same but couldn't figure out why yet
