Outdated info

Hello. I've seen Wikitech still mentions 'silver' as the place where this wiki runs. Is that still accurate? I think I heard somehow this wiki was moved? Regards, --MarcoAurelio (talk) 11:11, 18 March 2018 (UTC)

Done I've updated that page and a few others that mentioned silver.wikimedia.org. --BryanDavis (talk) 22:00, 18 March 2018 (UTC)

Logstash access for slow filters

Hi BD. I see that the slow filters stuff is behind a login wall. What competency level are you expecting, and which oaths of allegiance need to be sworn to see the slow filters results? If they are not too onerous, where should make an application? — billinghurst sDrewth 06:23, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

@billinghurst: I'm not sure what application/tool "slow filters stuff" refers to. Could you provide a URL? --BryanDavis (talk) 14:18, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

@billinghurst:, I guess I did not read the header for this message where it says "logstash". Access to the production application log data requires signing a non-disclosure agreement with the Foundation. The process for doing this as a community member is documented at Volunteer NDA#Volunteer_NDA_for_privileged_LDAP_access_or_shell_access. Once your developer account has been added to the cn=nda LDAP group you will be able to view all of the Kibana logging dashboards by authenticating with your developer account credentials. --BryanDavis (talk) 14:51, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

Tool question

Hello. I was wondering if the new Phab Ban tool kept a log somewhere? There's none, as far as I can see (but I might have not searched well enough). Best regards, — MarcoAurelio (talk) 22:15, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

@MarcoAurelio: the tool does not keep a log itself, but Phabricator does keep a log of enable/disable events at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/people/logs/. I'm not 100% sure, but I think you may have to be a Phabricator Admin to see that log. --BryanDavis (talk) 15:57, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

Hello. Yes, I am afraid that you'll have to be an administrator to see those logs as I am not able to access such page. In any case, I understand that the people that can use the PhabBan account is trusted so there shouldn't be any issues, but maybe, just maybe; having the tool log X disabled the account Y using the shared PhabBan tool would be a good idea for accountability? Thanks. — MarcoAurelio (talk) 20:18, 31 July 2018 (UTC)

Toolforge membership request

Hello Bryan -- I am trying to figure out how to complete the process of becoming a Toolforge member. I'm writing to you because you responded to my query at Access Request 396. I was able to fix the problem but have not heard anything since. We'd really like to get started with our project, so please let me know if there is anything else I should do.

@Rca2t, Bluerasberry: Done, and thanks for the ping to remind me to check the review queue. --BryanDavis (talk) 16:39, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
