RecentChanges with "Very Likely bad faith" ORES filter don't show Temporary accounts' edits
Open, Needs TriagePublicBUG REPORT

Description

Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):

  • Visit Special:RecentChanges (e.g. testwiki)
  • Use the ORES filter "Very Likely bad faith" in the "User Intent Predictions" section (example)

What happens?:

  • Edits made by both temporary and regular accounts will not be shown in RecentChanges. On Chinese Wikipedia, only edits made by IP users before the deployment of the Temporary Account feature will be shown (See the screenshot F62608035). It seems that edits made by temporary accounts do not trigger the "Very Likely bad faith" ORES filter.

What should have happened instead?:

  • Edits should be shown in RecentChanges, especially those made by temporary accounts

Software version (on Special:Version page; skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):
