Hi. I noticed you're migrating uses of {{ album cover fur}} to {{ Non-free use rationale album cover}}. It occurred to me that when one uses the upload form to upload an album cover, it's still preloading {{ album cover fur}}. You might want to request that the upload form be changed to use {{ Non-free use rationale album cover}} instead. Just an FYI. -- IllaZilla ( talk) 22:23, 5 October 2011 (UTC)

Your bot seems to be adding {{ orphan}} tags to categories [1]. I don't think that's intended? — Ruud 12:23, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
Hey, AvicBot should delay a little while before fixing double redirects, to prevent problems like this, and also to stop problems relating to page move vandalism. Redirect fixer, which also worked at the rate of knots, was disabled for a very good reason. Fixing double redirects is not an urgent issue ... I would delay it for half an hour from the time that the page was moved, at the very least. Graham 87 01:42, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi Avicennasis I Just want to appreciate the edits you made for the article Alfonso G. Pablo Sr.; I wish I could do some of those things. Greferjun ( talk) 18:06, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
Hello, Avicennasis. I notice you recently made a tag, combining multiple "issues" on the page for American Club (eikaiwa). I was wondering if you read the article and went through its references. Though tags for references and COI may have been relevant in the past, they don't seem relevant now. It seems if one were to go through the references and re-write the article from scratch, it would probably turn out pretty much the same as it is now (though one would have to be able to read Japanese, since many of the references are published in Japanese). Any thoughts? Thank you very much for your time and input! Minusminority ( talk) 04:42, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi,
Thanks for this bot: much needed! I note though that it's moving merged tags to the top of articles, above {{ other uses}} and presumably other hatnotes: [2] Is this a known bug? Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) ( talk) 13:16, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
In the MA Project, many people use the Catscan tool to search for articles with notability problems. The Catscan tool does not find tags inside the Multiple issues box. It would be nice if the Catscan tool were improved but in the between time, it is convenient to have the Notability tag outside the Multiple issues box. It is a balance between user needs and tools needs. Thanks! jmcw ( talk) 08:22, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:The Longford Trust Logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk) 07:27, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi Avicennasis. It would appear your bot, AvicBot, has made an error when converting issue templates to the {{
multiple issues}} template (
diff): as a replacement for the {{
too detailed}} template, it used over detailed
, which is a non-existent parameter. Instead, I believe it should have used overly detailed
, as this appears to be the corresponding "multiple issues" parameter. Thank you,

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Benjamin Sargeant requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. → Σ τ c. 01:09, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

Hello Avicennasis! I'm Theklan from the Basque Wikipedia. I've been working in the creation of the automatic taxobox as I think it's very useful for small Wikipedias. Furthermore, with the help of some bots I make template import so we can hold all the taxonomy information made in English. Well, as you will know when this taxonomy templates are created automatically we get something like this: Category:Immediate_step-children/Anthocerotophyta, in our case we get it in basque language: eu:Kategoria:Zuzeneko_alabaordeak/Muroidea. I've seen that you insert a template called Template category. So I have two questions:

It seems if one were to go through the references and re-write the article from scratch, it would probably turn out pretty much the same as it is now (though one would have to be able to read Japanese, since many of the references are published in Japanese). Any thoughts? Thank you very much for your time and input! Minusminority ( talk) 04:42, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
There is a discussion about the future and the growth of the US education program along with the future of the Wikipedia Ambassador Project here. Voceditenore ( talk) 07:12, 18 November 2011 (UTC)
Stop redirecting the page to Dead Space (series)! My page has perfect references and correct information. Do not do this agian because I have the text edit saved, so if you do it again, I will re paste. User:NackFinch Nov 18, 2011. —Preceding undated comment added 23:09, 18 November 2011 (UTC).

Hi,
Thanks for this bot: much needed! I note though that it's moving merged tags to the top of articles, above {{ other uses}} and presumably other hatnotes: [2] Is this a known bug? Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) ( talk) 13:16, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

In the MA Project, many people use the Catscan tool to search for articles with notability problems. The Catscan tool does not find tags inside the Multiple issues box. It would be nice if the Catscan tool were improved but in the between time, it is convenient to have the Notability tag outside the Multiple issues box. It is a balance between user needs and tools needs. Thanks! jmcw ( talk) 08:22, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:The Longford Trust Logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude ( talk) 07:27, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi Avicennasis. It would appear your bot, AvicBot, has made an error when converting issue templates to the {{
multiple issues}} template (
diff): as a replacement for the {{
too detailed}} template, it used over detailed
, which is a non-existent parameter. Instead, I believe it should have used overly detailed
, as this appears to be the corresponding "multiple issues" parameter. Thank you,

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Benjamin Sargeant requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. → Σ τ c. 01:09, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

Hello Avicennasis! I'm Theklan from the Basque Wikipedia. I've been working in the creation of the automatic taxobox as I think it's very useful for small Wikipedias. Furthermore, with the help of some bots I make template import so we can hold all the taxonomy information made in English. Well, as you will know when this taxonomy templates are created automatically we get something like this: Category:Immediate_step-children/Anthocerotophyta, in our case we get it in basque language: eu:Kategoria:Zuzeneko_alabaordeak/Muroidea. I've seen that you insert a template called Template category. So I have two questions:
