Hi -
You just rejected my request for a change in my user name...How do I get the word "user" from the beginning of my user name? I don't want/need it there! I didn't type it in.

Hi! please don't treat the website as database for your bots. if your bot wants to save such information somewhere, it can maintain local database, and anyone interested can go and query it. Your Evil DBA, Sincerely 18:44, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi there, I've now blocked SoxBot on simple: - I'm a bit nervous about it being blocked over here. If you can show that the server admins aren't going to get annoyed with it running on simple:, I'd be happy to unblock it. Sorry!

Soxbot seems to retag do-attempt pages as orphans. This is not helpful for Wikipedia:O since we tag them as attempted to be able to weed through the list and leave the attempts for another time. See http://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Bigflix&action=history for an example. Is there a solution for this? Shoombooly ( talk) 22:51, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi Soxred, could you tweak your bot so it doesn't tag disambiguation pages as orphans? There's really no point to that, since disambiguaton pages SHOULDN'T have any incoming links. Thanks!-- Aervanath lives in the Orphanage 13:21, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Image:A03-Grantville Gazette III (HC) cover art.jpg
In an attempt to ease the need to come up with standardized boilerplate text for the Grantville Gazettes ebooks (published now every other month) I moved the stable infobox book into a sub-page, from which this succession of edits arose, followed shortly after by this notice on the Image being orphaned. Not so, at least until your edit. It was being shown in the same place and page, entirely appropriately. I'd thunk to do the same with the whole sub-series (Nineteen will be out next month!)
I know you haven't been on the HRWiki in a while, but I hope I can still come to you for a little help since you have a better grasp of wiki code than anyone else I know. I'm hoping you can help me here and here, if you're willing. And if you don't want to sign in, it won't bother me a bit if you want to do it as an IP, either. Here's hoping!

I researched the help desk to find out how to make a template. I am not interested in doing it, as I suspect they use up a lot of code, and server time getting one wrong. You offered to make someone else a template, can you make one for USGS public domain resources? I would (or rather you, if you're willing) have to consult with the geology project to see what would necessarily go in it, but it would be a useful template to have for a lot of public domain US government USGS information, mostly their website information, also. I asked you because I'm lazy, yours was the first name to come up, it doesn't look like it's hard to do, but might need some experience, and you have a lolcatz or cheezburger kitty on your user page. Let me know. Thanks, -- Blechnic ( talk) 00:48, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Congratulations, I have just closed your RfA as successful and made you an administrator. Take a look at the administrators' how-to guide and the administrators' reading list if you haven't read those already. Also, the practice exercises at the new admin school may be useful.

Hi, I would say that SoxBot III removed these interwiki links incorrectly. Having noticed the first one, I checked a dozen or so others from that date and found the others.
[3] Removed 2 valid interwikis, perhaps because the EN is tagged as disam but the others are not.
[4] Removed valid disambiguation to disambiguation link, perhaps because the EN has disambiguation subcategories/specific templates rather than the general disambiguation category/template.
[5] Removed redirects rather than replacing them.
