Also, the idea of centralizing the OTRS authentication has been discussed and rejected before: T133476: Proposal: Centralize OTRS login methodology. I proposed setting up an LDAP server years ago that would handle the authentication and role management, and the overhead was too high.

https://otrs-wiki.wikimedia.org/wiki/Greasemonkey_Scripts (Feel free to expand or rename) - I also ported to GitHub as opposed to the Paste, which was more maintainable.
Hey, I don't know if this helps a lot, but I built a quick GreaseMonkey script that should restore the colors: https://github.com/Matthewrbowker/otrs-colors/raw/master/otrs-colors.user.js . This should work short-term until we decide what to do with our OTRS install.

@DannyS712 Awesome, thank you for taking care of that!
I have also enabled 2FA on my account. It's a bit of a scary process currently - I'm used to being asked that 2FA is set up correctly by inputting a code. Instead, the interface just assumes that you're set up correctly, which makes it easy to lock your account.

+1 to the lab rat queue, I'd love to test this.

That's why I didn't tag any project admins yet, I wanted to open it for wider discussion from the XTools maintainers before I went ahead and implemented.

@MusikAnimal @Cyberpower678 Do we want to use the banner system to maybe add a message linking to T262239 on prod? Otherwise, I fear we're going to see multiple tasks related to this.

For the record, I'm against this change. If there's truly an issue, a trusted contributor with a WMF cloak can bangops just as easily. But by whitelisting other networks, it becomes trivial to social engineer enough to begin creating spam. And I know a couple of our bad actors would love that.

After some testing, this appears to affect all tools. Therefore, I'm putting the code into the User module rather than the GlobalContribs controller.

Hello, @Adithyak1997, thank you for the bug report. What exactly is the problem? Are you concerned about the fact that we put the word "Semi" in parenthesis? Are you talking about the word "HIde" which is in brackets? Or did I completely missunderstand?

A quick eyeball at the emails show it's a pretty standard "spoofing our email as a from address and reply-to address" spam. This happens about once every six months to a year but this is by far the biggest I've seen.

Since I did most of AdminStats, I’ll take this on.

And I've switched the instance to wm-bot, since that seems to be the standard in all of the tech channels.

I've set #wikimedia-tech and #wikimedia-dev to +rf #wikimedia-overflow. It's not an ideal solution but it is a solution, hopefully we'll be able to increase productivity in those channels. #wikimedia-overflow has a large op presence that can either invite users or solve the issues.
If you set a +r and +f, I would recommend #wikimedia-overflow, as it already has a topic with those instructions and a large chanop presence who can handle the messages as needed.

Actually, after further digging it appears to be related to Intuition. @Krinkle where would be the best place for us to request additions to language/mw-classes/Names.php?
It appears to be related to TranslateWiki, see message stats
Another option: Simply have wm-bot wait until it's identified before it joins channels.
From an initial look at things, looks like the database queries are timing out. This is probably related to the large number of revisions that AIV has.

I am assuming with the increased priority there is an increased urgency. As such, do we have a time-frame for when we want to upgrade to Symfony 4? I am ready to begin work on this as needed, we will need to coordinate roll-outs.

Saw the following in /opt/xmlrcs/nohup.out and restarted es2r.py. That seems to have fixed the feed, it immediately started reporting in #wm-bot again.
