aerozol: yeah, the usual response is "only do stuff if it's actually causing issues"

👍

Usually I extend that to "if someone is already been reported, check for other spammers on the same IP and ban them too"

But more than that is just asking for doom and despair

Marking the users as spamer is okay, but searching for each forum user as well… (not to mention my bug where I can’t open the forum in multiple tags)

*tabs

Didn't I send you a userscript to link to the forum user from the editor page?

If not I can send it :)

reosarevok: ooh no that would be handy thanks. Though whenever I open a new forum window I have to alt+f5… (yes, I should fix that)

Should we add it to the userscripts wiki page? It seems harmless enough

It's not mine, so I shouldn't :)

Honestly, we should implement parts of it at least in MB

np

I'll get to it... eventually

:D

We had an article written about using Picard that’s popped up in a few places: https://www.popsci.com/diy/musicbrainz-picard-g...

Not a very accurate one… is it worth my time to email them ask them to make some changes mayhem? (mainly that people need to try cluster + lookup before pressing ‘scan’)

it can never hurt to reach out

bitmap: appended (bugfixes and enabled by default) to MBS-12107 in the blog post

MBS-12107: Replication with dbmirror2 https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-12107

mayhem: cool, I spotted some other mistakes in there so I’m going to

nice to have an article though!

reosarevok: updated the ticket list in the blog post

indeed!

bitmap, reosarevok: I published the blog post in private so that the URL won't change if the day change before we publish it publicly.

Thanks

Checking it

Seems good

Did you manage to test the PR?

bitmap, reosarevok: I will start tagging git repos too.

We can finish it tomorrow if need be, anyway :) Just wondering

Ok, thanks :)

reosarevok: not yet

but your comments look good

Announce we're back via MB twitter is done, right? (it's still not crossed in the doc)

Or are you waiting because you only count it after the blog post? :)

yes

for website & API only

reosarevok: yes, I didn't cross because dumps and replication are not back yet

Gotcha

actually it should be tweeted about when publishing about the blog post

What's our current expectation for those things?

I thought "Wait for replication packet to be produced" was ready :)

It is crosssed

Yeah I meant re: "dumps and replication are not back yet" :)

Anyway, clearly dumps are not done

reosarevok: I can have a quick pass over the ‘report a user’ wiki, would you rather I edit the wiki direct or do a word doc? I’ll probably just try make it a bit shorter/quicker to read

Wiki direct is fine tbh

yes because replication requires either dump or upgrade steps

Cool, I’ll message you when it’s done and you can roll back whatever you want

aerozol: cool. Probably in the morning, but :)

and the upgrade steps start with: just recreate the database from a fresh dump instead if you prefer

Yeah, makes sense

bitmap, reosarevok: tagged both git repos, prepared releases in jira too

Thanks!

reosarevok: now that PR :)

yvanzo: thanks! It's ok if you want to sleep and check it in the morning too really

Your choice :)

yvanzo: thanks++

I'm about to eat but working on the json dumps DB upgrade in the background

reosarevok: It's just the last missing piece to have the blog post ready.

Sure :)

bitmap: Updated the upgrade steps for when dumps are ready.

Also update the blog post to say that beta will be updated tomorrow (rather then rushed tonight)

Going now, good evening!

yvanzo: looks good, will publish when dumps are finished. have a good night!

on trille, a docker container named brainzbot-plugins-prod is looping on restart due to an error "/bin/sh: 1: manage.py: not found" since a while. I stopped the container.

not sure who deployed it, but there's a repo https://github.com/metabrainz/brainzbot-plugins which is archived

reosarevok: for when you’re up, I did some small updates to the Edit Note wiki, and went to town on the How to Report an Editor wiki. Change as you wish

resoarevok: I also created MBS-13085

MBS-13085: Rename 'Reveal my email address' report text https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/MBS-13085

I truncated logs & emptied caches on trille to reclaim a bit of disk space
