From a technical point of view. In my experience they may be more hidden, but this is for the best I can declare. And I would like to emphasize again that when judging Possible, contribs and behavior patterns must be comprehensively judged. --Sotiale (talk) 06:38, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Reason(s): Cross wiki check. Confirmed on WP-fr, they're also active on WP-en & WP-de. At some subnet levels (/24 or /16), it is likely that there are other accounts that are globally positive but too old or without information on WP-fr. Any cross wiki abuse nearby?
