Editing STOWiki:Admin noticeboard (section)

===Pet dot Com link blocker broken===
Since STO Wiki's merge with Gamepedia, they've had a spam blocker that requires you to pick out cat photos whenever you add a link to a page. It worked fine up until December, but now it appears to be broken. No matter how many cat photos I pick it just repeats the cycle thus preventing me from adding any external links to STOwiki. - [[User:Peregrine Falcon|Peregrine Falcon]] ([[User talk:Peregrine Falcon|talk]]) 04:56, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
:We've verified the problem and I've sent it to the appropriate team for investigation. I'll leave an update when I know more. <span style="color: #999999;">&mdash;</span> [[User:OOeyes|<small>'''oOeyes'''</small>]] [[Image:User-Eyes-Sig.png|link=User talk:OOeyes]] 14:47, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
::I can also confirm this. An IP removed everything from [[User talk:Peregrine Falcon]], and because the previous rev had external links in it, it prompted me with Asirra, which wouldn't confirm no matter how many times I did it.
::If we can't fix this right away, I suggest disabling it temporarily, because this bug could easily be abused maliciously; we'd be helpless without an admin to revert it (if they even can).

:::Yes, if there isn't a quick fix, I'll request Asirra be disabled for the time being. <span style="color: #999999;">&mdash;</span> [[User:OOeyes|<small>'''oOeyes'''</small>]] [[Image:User-Eyes-Sig.png|link=User talk:OOeyes]] 16:55, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
::::Thank you so much for your quick response to this! I'll keep checking back to see when this is resolved, as I always have more links to add. :) - [[User:Peregrine Falcon|Peregrine Falcon]] ([[User talk:Peregrine Falcon|talk]]) 18:57, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
:::::Asirra should be working properly now. Let me know you experience any further problems. <span style="color: #999999;">&mdash;</span> [[User:OOeyes|<small>'''oOeyes'''</small>]] [[Image:User-Eyes-Sig.png|link=User talk:OOeyes]] 19:41, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
Everything seems to be working fine now. Added a link without issue. Thanks! - [[User:Peregrine Falcon|Peregrine Falcon]] ([[User talk:Peregrine Falcon|talk]]) 09:48, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
:Was that system (Asirra?) shut off? I added a link to my page today and was not prompted to pick a cat picture. - [[User:Peregrine Falcon|Peregrine Falcon]] ([[User talk:Peregrine Falcon|talk]]) 07:44, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
::It's still running, but adjustments have been made so it doesn't trigger for all users anymore, just newer ones. <span style="color: #999999;">&mdash;</span> [[User:OOeyes|<small>'''oOeyes'''</small>]] [[Image:User-Eyes-Sig.png|link=User talk:OOeyes]] 17:16, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
