Nuke should respect flood flag
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

I set flood flag on myself and my deleting actions are still shown in Special:Recentchanges.

I'm not sure if MW core provides a way to hide them...

This works fine for me with a quick test on Meta - which wiki are you experiencing this problem, and is it related to the Translate Extension (which does show up in RC even if you set the flood flag, that's a separate bug). - THO

Huh, seems like on a second refresh it did show up.

Confirmed bug.

It sounds like this would be a way for a spammer to create a bunch of pages that are quickly deleted using Nuke -- but they would still show up in the log as they are deleted.

Raising priority and requesting comment.

So it turns out that if I make myself a bot (this is now on test.wikipedia), it *is* hidden from the RC feed, I only get:

(User rights log); 19:29 . . Thehelpfulone (talk | contribs | block) changed group membership for User:Thehelpfulone from bureaucrat, administrator and translation administrator to bureaucrat, administrator, translation administrator and bot ‎(testing purposes)

Nothing else in the RC when I delete the page (or remove the bot right from myself).

So the request is to not show deleting actions in Special:Recentchanges?
