SoxBot (talk) 00:12, 1 October 2008 (UTC)


Hey, I'm trying to find a way to merge to accounts into one. Here's what I've put on the name changing page...

Itsmyright → Jeremy706

  • Reason: I actually have both accounts, Itsmyright and Jeremy706. If at all possible, I would like for both accounts be merged into one account.

I'll log onto the other account to prove that I am one and the same. Jeremy706 (talk) 04:31, 2 October 2008 (UTC) Itsmyright (talk) 04:33, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

WP:ALM newsletter

Ready to go! It can be found here. WesleyDodds (talk) 08:28, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

RfA

Thanks man, I appreciate it. Writing it now, thanks again for the kind words.  Asenine  16:29, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Hm, this is looking bad. I would be withdrawal SNOWing soon if it were not for the effort you have put in, so I think I should ask first. What would your opinion be?  Asenine  19:43, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

AC Tool

Hi, X!. Recently I've been very overwhelmed with school and studying, so I've been on suspention from the Account Creator Tool because I've been inactive for more than 45 days. I should be able to contribute now at least once a week. Could you reactivate my account so I can continue to help out with the backlog?

Cheers, —Mizu onna sango15Hello! 19:01, 4 October 2008 (UTC).

I will, once the toolserver is back up. Xclamation point 19:06, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

SoxBot

Hi X! Do you think there is anyway you could program your bot to remove the orphan template when it's no longer valid? I'm going through the orphaned pages, and I've found that quite a few of them are no longer orphans. Thanks for the help. Magog the Ogre (talk) 07:18, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi X. Just to let you know I have already read the Copyright on a free Wikipedia course. Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Leujohn (talk • contribs) 11:57, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

RFA Thanks

X!, I'd like to thank you for voting in my RFA. Thanks also for expressing your trust in me, and I hope that I live up to your expectations. Don't forget, if you have any questions (or bits of advice), please leave a message on my talk page. Thanks again, SpencerT♦C 02:57, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

TangoBot parse error

Hi
I allowed myself to undo your edit to the RfA page: I think it's better to have it listed with a parse error rather than not at all. There's also been a bit of discussion about this at Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship/Ironholds 2#Support/Oppose/Neutral section headings.
I hope you're OK with it. Cheers, AmaltheaTalk 05:44, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey

Per your request, I'm just alerting you to the updates made to my AC page, hope you are well ——Possum (talk) 21:42, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey!!!

I think, this is yours. But it's changing my page, please stop it for it!!! *** Эɱ®εč¡κ *** ...and his friends 15:35, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, per WP:NFCC#9, fair use images are not allowed in userspace. Xclamation point 15:52, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

RfA thanks

Hello X. Thank you very much for your support in my recent Request for Adminship, which was successful with 111 supports, 0 opposes, and 0 neutral. I have to say I am more than a little overwhelmed by this result and I greatly appreciate your trust in me. I will do my best to use the tools wisely. Thanks again. Regards. Thingg⊕⊗ 01:07, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

Me too...thank you for your support in my RfA. Kindly, Lazulilasher (talk) 23:15, 12 October 2008 (UTC)

MPUploadBot disabled blocked

Hi, I've just disabled MPUploadBot. There's currently a bug that is preventing newly uploaded images from producing a thumbnail (details), so each time it uploaded the DYK image it was breaking the thumbnail on the template. I know this isn't yours or the bot's fault, but you may want to change it so it doesn't upload if the image is protected on commons. Cheers, ~ User:Ameliorate! (with the !) (talk) 14:38, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, but I've had to block it; even though I made the change at 14:30 it still uploaded Image:Brachylophus fasciatus (Fijian Iguana).jpg at 14:45. ~ User:Ameliorate! (with the !) (talk) 14:59, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
I have fixed both the checking for protected on commons, and the shutoff switch. Xclamation point 23:53, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Soxbot VI

Could you change this text:

"Soxbot VI has analyzed this request, and a problem(s) was found. Target username exists, but as it has no contributions, it can be usurped at WP:USURP"

TO

"Soxbot VI analyzed this request and found a problem. Although the requested username exists, the user has not made any contributions to Wikipedia. Therefore, you can place a request to usurp the username at Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations."

The original wording is to verbose, passive, robotic, and unhelpful to a new user. Regards, =Nichalp «Talk»= 19:50, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Re: Wikipedia e-mail

I can try to find my private key for hemlock and get this source code to you, though it is thoroughly possible that it is lost. Also, if you do not have a PHP/PEAR-based development model, it will be of no use to you. — madman bum and angel 02:33, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

All my bots are written in PHP, shouldn't be a problem. Xclamation point 02:34, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

User:MPUploadBot

You may want to change the link on the bot's userpage that says "Non Administrator emergency shutoff", since you full-protected the page it links to. J.delanoygabsadds 20:52, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

The directions say for non admins to "change the text to anything..." wasn't I wuppsed to do that? Not plentifuls (talk) 23:49, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

Thank you for clarifying. I have fixed the text on the bot pages. Not plentifuls (talk) 00:45, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Mentioned bot on Wikitech-l

I'd like to be added to the list if possible. Thanks. — neuro(talk) 16:41, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

I'll need your email address too. Xclamation point 16:42, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
<email removed> . Thanks. — neuro(talk) 17:12, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
Added. Xclamation point 18:32, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, and just to let you know for the future - the whole point of that email is so that I can post it publically. — neuro(talk) 18:41, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Stop vandalising my page

Please stop vandalising my page. GreyMatterEchoUKfan (talk) 9:42, 20 October, 2008 (UTC)

First of all, I am not vandalizing your page. My bot is removing images from your userpage because they are not free, and not free images are only allowed in articles. See WP:NFCC#9. Xclamation point 14:08, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

SoxBot X not editing

Something up with it? –xeno (talk) 19:39, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

Fixed. Nat682 broke it by changing the instructions to not subst the template. The bot doesn't check for the {{rfp}} template. Xclamation point 22:27, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
That's probably a bad idea all around. Sorry, I shoulda poked around before coming here - cheers. –xeno (talk) 03:16, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

Straw poll

The Main Page Redesign proposal is currently conducting a straw poll in selecting five proposals before an RFC in which it will be against the current main page. You're input would be appreciated. ChyranandChloe (talk) 04:12, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Bot req

Hi there, when you made the edit to link everything (skin article) you removed the first letter of every line. I've undone your edit and thought you should know of the error. Thanks for your time. §hep • ¡Talk to me! 18:42, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

What are you talking about?

Your rollback request

Hi! I regret that I must inform you that your request for the rollback permission has been denied. You can discover why by checking the archives at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Denied/October 2008#Nat682. SoxBot X (talk) 15:00, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

In addition, you broke the clerk bot because you told people not to subst the template. Xclamation point 22:28, 20 October 2008 (UTC)
What are you talking about? I did not tell people to not subst the template, and I do not see how I could have broken a bot. An explaination please? Thanks, Nat682 (talk) 20:45, 25 October 2008 (UTC).
As you can see here, you removed the subst: from the instructions. If it was accidental, I understand. Howver, it breaks the bot because if people do not subst the template, then the bot does not read the request properly. Xclamation point 23:19, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

User:SoxBot X

Hey X!, would you mind changing the time period before the bot archives requests to at least one hour. Currently the bot archives so fast it gives little to no time for other admins to review the case, or for the requester to see any comments the closing admin may have left. Thanks, Tiptoety talk 05:34, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
