"abc 123"[edit]

This password is listed as both numbers 13 and 14. Is one of them perhaps supposed to be "abc123" (sans space)? Joefromrandb (talk) 07:49, 1 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Numbered list formatting[edit]

I have repaired the format of the list numbers 101 onwards. I was surprised to go back a few months in the page history and not see it fixed. The Wiki page for list formatting let me know the correct way to structure this change; I hope this is acceptable as a 'minor edit'.

Semi-frequent IP-based vandalism[edit]

I was wondering whether the spate of vandalism and reverts this page seems to see might be due to people thinking "Oh no, my password's on this list, better delete it [and while I'm here all of the rest of it]". Would it be worth sticking this on semi-protected?

Why not protect?[edit]

As for today, 47 consecutive edits were just vandalism, revert, vandalism, revert, vandalism, revert... The current revision Special:PermaLink/986593256 from 1 Nov, is the same as Special:PermaLink/969751380 from 27 Jul.

Why isn't it protected yet? Is it really so funny to have it restored every fifth day? --CiaPan (talk) 10:18, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Every few months I come back to this page to see if it's been protected yet. I'm guessing nobody but us is actively monitoring it any more. And even that is a loose definition of 'actively'. NinjaDuckie (talk) 21:48, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Lots of edits and blatant vandalism today and yesterday. A. Rosenberg (talk) 14:14, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia article and Wikipedia: page[edit]

Are these two:

synchronized in any manner? The former lists passwords from four different sources, but only 20 or 25 from each. --CiaPan (talk) 08:11, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Should they be linked somehow, e.g. in the 'See also' section? --CiaPan (talk)

#51[edit]

Can't edit but #51 is 'fuckme' not 'mycomeputer', check the source. Noticed it was strange that 'mycompeter' was higher than 'computer' with no 'mycomputer' anywhere to be found.

Good catch. Fixed. Alecnotalex (talk) 04:56, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There are only 9936[edit]

Hi, the name of the entry is 10,000 passwords but the list ends with the number 9936... 192.117.165.7 (talk) 00:11, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No it doesn't. It ends with #10,000, and the article has not been touched in almost two months. Meters (talk) 04:38, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 9 January 2024[edit]

please I would have great gratitude if 773 password changed to "Evan" because I have some sources telling me that "Evan" is a more populaire password Rare doos spion (talk) 16:29, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. RudolfRed (talk) 16:57, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Recent Viral Meme[edit]

Hi everyone, it has come to my attention that this article, specifically the 773rd most common password, has become a viral meme on Instagram and other social media platforms. Just thought that should be noted. Royz-vi Tsibele (talk) 16:50, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
