My shadow, as of December 2023.

Hello, everybody. I primarily fight vandalism, spam, and sometimes LTAs. I am a member of the Small Wiki Monitoring Team, and my home wiki is the English Wikipedia where I am a pending changes reviewer and a rollbacker.

Who are you, and what do you do? edit

I am a Wikimedian who engages in counter-vandalism/spam and LTAs, and you may call me Codename, Noreste, Codename Noreste, or CN. Any accounts whose names start with Codename aren't likely going to be operated by me.

Local and cross-wiki counter-vandalism/spam edit

I am a rollbacker on the Simple English and Spanish Wikipedias, and a patroller on Meta. As nature calls me, I do make sure to defend other projects from vandalism, spam, abuse and/or harassment, which involves viewing the Meta-Wiki abuse log, and sometimes I use SWViewer to watch for unconstructive edits (and occasionally on enwiki).

As for LTAs, I know some of them and their behavior, and for that reason, I try to deny recognition to them while simultaneously reverting and ignoring them. For specific ones, I report their socks to SRG when possible.

Speedy deletions edit

I tag promotional and/or spammy pages for deletion using TwinkleGlobal's CSD module, and also for pages that contain obvious vandalism.

Abuse filters edit

I help out with false positives on abuse filters on the English Wikipedia, the Spanish Wikipedia, and the Simple English Wikipedia. Currently, I am not an abuse filter helper since that's a very high trust role, but I have basic knowledge of both regular expressions and filter syntax.

Translations edit

I translate pages from English to Spanish, and sometimes the other way around (Spanish to English) whenever possible. For the same reason, I have an account on translatewiki.net.

Questions and answers edit

Do you have any alternative accounts? edit

I only operate an alternative account, Códigonombre Alguien (talk · contribs), which is used to edit on public computers, unsecure networks and/or when my main account could have the potential be compromised. For security purposes, I have enabled two-factor authentication on my main account.

How can I leave you a message? edit

If you want to leave me a message about questions or issues, you may feel free to do so on my talk page on Meta, or email me if there are sensitive concerns. In case if you are wondering if I can respond in Spanish, sí, puedo hacerlo. Otherwise, if you reply in a language other than English or Spanish, at most I will reply to your question or issue in English after translating your question.
