I don't think that the logged out edits are to evade scrutiny; it looks like the user is just not bothered to log in because it's unnecessary. If not unblocked, the settings should be changed to allow logged in editing, as you've said "please login and use your account" [1]. Peter James ( talk) 18:26, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

When you said "Revoking talk page access" on user:Buttwipe101, you didn't really revoke their talk page access. 76.226.60.52 ( talk) 00:40, 3 October 2013 (UTC)
Hello - some editors fight off the vandal hordes, as I do repairing pages with citation errors. If I didn't - there would be a large backlog in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting and in Category:Pages with missing references list as in Category:Pages with broken reference names ( more than 1500 yesterday). But it is impossible to work it alone. Do you know how to do a " Blitz" (excuse the comparision) to find willing editors to work on it. It is much more easier to repair references if you do it one hour, one day or one week ago after the errors were made instead of months and years after the error was done. Very, very difficult to find these errors.
Only with WikiBlame Search it is possible to find and repair such errors.

Legobot does not appear to have edited in over 4 hours, which has left the WP:GAN page a bit behind. Has something gone wonky? (BTW, thank you for your AWESOME work on this bot. I know you probably mostly get complained at for issues like the one I am bringing here today, but even with minor mis-steps now and then, having your bot makes reviewing SO much easier.)

Hi. I've seen Your bot is archiving talk pages. Same task I'm trying to do on sr.wiki, but archive.py simply does not find anything worthy archiving. I asked Misza and folks on pywikipedia mailing list, but my problem is not solved. Would you run your bot through sr.wiki to see whether I properly configured parameters for template archive? -- Bojan Talk 07:30, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

Hello Legoktm. You've been helping to fill some of the gap left by MiszaBot. Can you recommend a solution for archiving WP:AN3? It seems to need the 'key feature' since the archives are not subpages of the noticeboard. Thanks, EdJohnston ( talk) 16:20, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
You have currently two open BRFAs. Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/TFA Protector Bot needs your attention since over more than 3 weeks and Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/Legobot 35 was approved for 1 scheduled run. Regards, Armbrust The Homunculus 06:09, 15 October 2013 (UTC)

For the revision deletion script and making it so much easier for us admins to handle large numbers of repetitive files in a much shorter time. NtheP ( talk) 14:44, 26 October 2013 (UTC) |
Someone thanked me for the opportunity to provide commentary and we got a redirect out of it. That's an odd accusation. Biosthmors ( talk) pls notify me (i.e. {{ U}}) while signing a reply, thx 16:54, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
Just a small note: rather than "etc" (which is a misspelled form of "etc."), you want "et al." "Et al." is reserved for people. :-) -- MZMcBride ( talk) 18:24, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
