That's fair enough. Been a while since I last had to request this so had forgotten the process.
Will see if I can make a note of the steps involved so I can get this done in good time on next occasion.
Thanks for all your help on this anyway.TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T208236EMAIL PREFERENCEShttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/To: Urbanecm, StinglehammerCc: gerritbot, Urbanecm, Dereckson, Platonides, Aklapper, Stinglehammer, CucyNoiD, Nandana, NebulousIris, Gaboe420, Versusxo, Majesticalreaper22, Giuliamocci, Adrian1985, Cpaulf30, Lahi, Gq86, Baloch007, Darkminds3113, Bsandipan, Lordiis, GoranSMilovanovic, Adik2382, Jayprakash12345, Th3d3v1ls, Ramalepe, Liugev6, QZanden, Zoranzoki21, LawExplorer, Lewizho99, Maathavan, DatGuy, Devwaker, Niklitov, JEumerus, Tulsi_Bhagat, Wong128hk, Luke081515, SimmeD, Wikidata-bugs, Snowolf, aude, Dcljr, Jdforrester-WMF, Matanya, Mbch331, Rxy, Jay8g, Krenair___

BTW, we can only allow your participants to create 20 accounts from one IP address (cirumcimvent the six account limit). They will be still counted as newbie and will hit any newbie limits (8 edits per minute from one IP, counting all newbies from that IP together). If you want the software to stop applying newbie limits to some user, you can manually add "confirmed" flag to the users (any sysop can do it).

There are efforts to change this behaiviour, but this is how it is now.


Great thanks. If I want these new accounts to work with Quickstatements by way of a facilitated demo then I think we may want the newb limit lifted if possible. If the users create accounts tonight/tomorrow can I message a sysops on Wikidata project chat (or wikimedia-tech page) to see about getting these user accounts confirmed?TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T208236EMAIL PREFERENCEShttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/To: Urbanecm, StinglehammerCc: gerritbot, Urbanecm, Dereckson, Platonides, Aklapper, Stinglehammer, CucyNoiD, Nandana, NebulousIris, Gaboe420, Versusxo, Majesticalreaper22, Giuliamocci, Adrian1985, Cpaulf30, Lahi, Gq86, Baloch007, Darkminds3113, Bsandipan, Lordiis, GoranSMilovanovic, Adik2382, Jayprakash12345, Th3d3v1ls, Ramalepe, Liugev6, QZanden, Zoranzoki21, LawExplorer, Lewizho99, Maathavan, DatGuy, Devwaker, Niklitov, JEumerus, Tulsi_Bhagat, Wong128hk, Luke081515, SimmeD, Wikidata-bugs, Snowolf, aude, Dcljr, Jdforrester-WMF, Matanya, Mbch331, Rxy, Jay8g, Krenair___

TASK DESCRIPTIONIP unblock requested for a Wikidata birthday hackathon on Wed 31 October for Halloween at University of Edinburgh to allow new accounts to be created and new accounts to successfully complete manual edits/references/mass edits as part of 3 hour workshop.
Potentially up 15-20 new users creating accounts on Wikipedia/Wikidata and being carefully shown how to edit Wikidata and use QuickStatements. 
Public range for wireless users: 192.41.128.1 to 192.41.131.250 is the IP range for that room.
NB: Previous demos with multiple new users of Quickstatements working synchronously have failed because of some issue possibly to do with IP throttling/new user status so IP unblock should help here.TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T208236EMAIL PREFERENCEShttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/To: StinglehammerCc: Aklapper, Stinglehammer, Nandana, Lahi, Gq86, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, LawExplorer, Wikidata-bugs, aude, Mbch331___
