Dear @ GoingBatty,
I trust this message finds you well. My name is Leefort, and I am the original author of the Wikipedia page titled " Mohyed din". I extend my sincere appreciation for your valuable contribution on 10/01/2024.
I find myself encountering a challenge with the page that I have authored. I am seeking your assistance in restoring the page to its original name (Mohyeddin) and eliminating the associated redirect page.
The link to the redirect page in question is: Mohyeddin
To clarify the desired actions:
1. Please rename the page from “Mohyed din” to “Mohyeddin”.
2. Please remove the redirect page “ Mohyeddin”
The objective is to have a singular page titled “Mohyeddin”.
Your support in addressing this issue would be highly appreciated, and I am confident that your expertise will contribute to the seamless resolution of this matter. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Best regards,

Hey, I've edit some code in Module:WikiProject banner/sandbox so there won't be a need to create new unknown categories for each WikiProject template and the pages will end up in the parent Category:WikiProject templates with unknown parameters. Will your bot be able to work with that or does it actually need to the sub-categories? Gonnym ( talk) 14:45, 10 January 2024 (UTC)

BattyBot is running around changing every instance of {{ maths rating}} to {{ WikiProject Mathematics}}, to which it redirects, and sometimes also removing obsolete parameters from the template. For example special:diff/1195444429. This kind of change has no benefit to readers or editors and is adding a ton of clutter to watchlists, which is disruptive. You should wait until you have some kind of meaningful change to make to these pages before performing such edits. See WP:COSMETICBOT. – jacobolus (t) 23:01, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
While you're at it, if BattyBot is going to be putting all of the wikiproject banners into the 'wikiproject banner shell', can you at the same time copy the "class" to the banner shell and out of the individual wikiproject banners? Otherwise some other bot is likely to come and do this in a separate step. As many of these maintenance banner changes as possible should handled in a single edit, so several passes don't need to be made through every page on the site. Maybe you can coordinate with User:Cewbot who is also doing a bunch of these watchlist-cluttering automatic banner twiddling edits? Ideally we'd have just one single bot tasked with this nonsense, so discussion about its timeline, behavior, bugs, etc. can be concentrated in a single place, and the disruption to humans can be minimized. – jacobolus (t) 23:21, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

Dear @ GoingBatty, I've noticed that someone has moved the page to mainspace, specifically 90's - A Middle Class Biopic, which I had submitted for review. I'm curious about how anyone can make such a move, and I'm also wondering why this action wasn't reflected on my Talk page. Typically, when a reviewer accepts or declines an article, the outcome is automatically displayed on the Talk page.

Not entirely sure what happened here, but it seems as though BattyBot has added a WikiProject Lepidoptera banner that wasn't there prior to its edit (and doesn't seem to belong).

These two bots are already wrapping all of the wikiproject banners in the banner shell and consolidating the ratings. If BattyBot makes an edit like special:diff/1198608787 one of these other bots is going to come by later and move the "start" rating from the wikiproject banners into the banner shell. It would be easiest if we have as few bots as possible trying to do this enormous project, to minimize disruption and so complaints about their behavior can be centralized, they don't step on each-others toes, etc. These bots are also using the tag "#talk banner shell conversion" and marking these edits as minor, to help people filter such edits from their watchlists, and are presumably fixing whatever bugs arise in their process. – jacobolus (t) 16:45, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

In late November we communicated about a draft I tried to submit entitled "Robert E. (Bob) Bourke". It was not formally submitted, and you suggested I make more specific the footnotes for ease of reviewing. I've done that but cannot figure out how to locate the draft I prepared earlier. Nor can I pull up our earlier thread, where the draft was embedded. Can you send me our earlier thread or let me know how to pull up the draft I prepared in November? Thank you!

Hi again, I located our old thread and made the relevant footnote insertions within the paragraphs in the draft. I could not find any way to "save the edits" so I clicked on "submit the draft for review" and a box appears with "template" in the upper left corner. It contains some information about how the template has no description (maybe the tags?). What do I need to do to submit the revised draft for review? Also, is there an easier way to pull up this draft without locating our old thread? Thank you!

A tag has been placed on Category:2022 Russian television series debuts indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

I note that the generally very helpful BattyBot seems to have unhelpfully edited at least one template:Afd-merge to while applying fixes. The edit of concern was this one, where a correctly-displaying October-dated AfD-template was switched to a December date. That is, the October data was correctly displaying here, but after the bot edit has slipped 2-months later to this. Klbrain ( talk) 15:20, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello GoingBatty. I'm reaching out to you to ask for your assistance in implementing the pending edit request I posted on Yitzchak Mirilashvili's Talk page. There is a lot of information there that has nothing to do with Mirilashvili himself, the language is not-NPOV (suggesting that making charitable donations is a crime), and does not include the fact that Mirilashvili was found to have done nothing wrong. Your recent editing of other individuals listed in the Category:Billionaires_from_Georgia_(country) was substantive and helpful; I would appreciate your assistance on this matter.

Hi GoingBatty,
I just wanted to thank you for the latest modifications to the Draft:Troy Bronson 2024. Your efforts to update references and copyedit have significantly increased the article's quality. It's great to see such helpful contributions, and I really appreciate your attention to detail and commitment to improve Wikipedia's content. Your Editor of the Week award and induction into the Disambiguator Hall of Fame, among numerous other accomplishments look awesome!
Given your skill and experience, specifically your role in reviewing and editing, I was wondering if you could provide any more comments to ensure it fulfills Wikipedia's standards. Your insights would be beneficial to me, especially given your expertise with AutoWikiBrowser; what I'm trying to convey is that I've learnt a lot simply by reading your portfolio!

Dear @ GoingBatty, I've noticed that someone has moved the page to mainspace, specifically 90's - A Middle Class Biopic, which I had submitted for review. I'm curious about how anyone can make such a move, and I'm also wondering why this action wasn't reflected on my Talk page. Typically, when a reviewer accepts or declines an article, the outcome is automatically displayed on the Talk page.
Could you provide some clarification on this matter? Thank you. Milli's Boy ( talk) 06:26, 15 January 2024 (UTC)

Not entirely sure what happened here, but it seems as though BattyBot has added a WikiProject Lepidoptera banner that wasn't there prior to its edit (and doesn't seem to belong).

These two bots are already wrapping all of the wikiproject banners in the banner shell and consolidating the ratings. If BattyBot makes an edit like special:diff/1198608787 one of these other bots is going to come by later and move the "start" rating from the wikiproject banners into the banner shell. It would be easiest if we have as few bots as possible trying to do this enormous project, to minimize disruption and so complaints about their behavior can be centralized, they don't step on each-others toes, etc. These bots are also using the tag "#talk banner shell conversion" and marking these edits as minor, to help people filter such edits from their watchlists, and are presumably fixing whatever bugs arise in their process. – jacobolus (t) 16:45, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

In late November we communicated about a draft I tried to submit entitled "Robert E. (Bob) Bourke". It was not formally submitted, and you suggested I make more specific the footnotes for ease of reviewing. I've done that but cannot figure out how to locate the draft I prepared earlier. Nor can I pull up our earlier thread, where the draft was embedded. Can you send me our earlier thread or let me know how to pull up the draft I prepared in November? Thank you!

Hi again, I located our old thread and made the relevant footnote insertions within the paragraphs in the draft. I could not find any way to "save the edits" so I clicked on "submit the draft for review" and a box appears with "template" in the upper left corner. It contains some information about how the template has no description (maybe the tags?). What do I need to do to submit the revised draft for review? Also, is there an easier way to pull up this draft without locating our old thread? Thank you!

If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

I note that the generally very helpful BattyBot seems to have unhelpfully edited at least one template:Afd-merge to while applying fixes.

Hello GoingBatty. I'm reaching out to you to ask for your assistance in implementing the pending edit request I posted on Yitzchak Mirilashvili's Talk page. There is a lot of information there that has nothing to do with Mirilashvili himself, the language is not-NPOV (suggesting that making charitable donations is a crime), and does not include the fact that Mirilashvili was found to have done nothing wrong.

Hi GoingBatty,
I just wanted to thank you for the latest modifications to the Draft:Troy Bronson 2024. Your efforts to update references and copyedit have significantly increased the article's quality. It's great to see such helpful contributions, and I really appreciate your attention to detail and commitment to improve Wikipedia's content. Your Editor of the Week award and induction into the Disambiguator Hall of Fame, among numerous other accomplishments look awesome!
Given your skill and experience, specifically your role in reviewing and editing, I was wondering if you could provide any more comments to ensure it fulfills Wikipedia's standards. Your insights would be beneficial to me, especially given your expertise with AutoWikiBrowser; what I'm trying to convey is that I've learnt a lot simply by reading your portfolio!
