Throttle rule for workshop in Municipal Library of Prague
Hi everyone
Thanks for your hard work on this.
However, yesterday we still ran into the 6-account limit - and had to create other usernames on different language projects to bypass the problem. Can you look into it?
We will have similar workshops in the future and need to be sure about it.
I checked the IP adress on the spot and it was the same. Can you detect new registered users coming from the IP?
best regards
Ahoj Vojtěch, sorry that things didn't work out as expected. :(
Reopening for investigation.
Huh. That's weird. :/ I don't see any reason why it should not work and haven't seen any reports like this in the past.
I don't think we will find out the reason here, unfortunately. If this ever happens again, please join #wikimedia-tech on Freenode IRC to try to sort this out. Again, sorry for the hassle. :-/
