Summary: AntiSpoof not working? Product: MediaWiki extensions Version: any Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Normal Component: AntiSpoof AssignedTo: soxre...@gmail.com ReportedBy: wmdf...@gmail.com CC: platoni...@gmail.com Dear developers, In the mediawiki page "Extension:Antispoof" I can read that AntiSpoof is an extension for preventing confusable usernames from being created; yet spoofed usernames are still being created. Recent examples: Legitimate user | Spoofed user -------------------------------- Laura Fiorucci | Låura Fiorucci Lucien leGrey | Lucien le6rey Poco a poco | Poco a ƿoco Comae | Comæ Sabbut | ЅаЬЬцт BetoCG | ВетоС6 etc. Those usernames above have been part of a recent impersonation campaign at eswiki (all the accounts were created there and tryied to impersonate the above named bureaucrats - see logs/SUL/etc.). Something should be done to prevent this IMHO.
