I can only speak for enwp, of course, but with my experience as a checkuser and arb there (and a couple years as an admin before that) I can say without a doubt that I would strenuously oppose relaxing TOR restrictions: I have never seen a TOR exit node used for legitimate purposes, ever, with the notable exception of a handful (less than 10) editors who had been carefully vetoed prior. In fact, even some of those supposedly legitimate editors have fallen to the lure of "easy" socking when given the opportunity. That said, however, there are geopolitical concerns that may well justify the cost for /some/ projects. I could see why zhwiki might well feel the balance tips the other way, for instance. -- Marc _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
