Thanks in advance. --Bongithemba (talk) 09:42, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) @Usernamekiran: Do you have any reliable sources to support this change? If you do, please share the article's name and source, and I'll be happy to help you with it. – DreamRimmer (talk) 10:41, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Bongithemba: Hello. On Wikipedia, most of the information needs to verifiable reliable sources, especially in the case of biographies of people, DreamRimmer said above. —usernamekiran (talk) 12:22, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

https://amp.acdh.oeaw.ac.at

KiranBOT edits the URL https://amp.acdh.oeaw.ac.at/ even though "amp" is not a tracking parameter but short for "Auden Musulin Papers". Can you put the URL on a whitelist? Mepherl (talk) 11:03, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Mepherl: Hi. I added it to the whitelist. but which page was it? —usernamekiran (talk) 12:03, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I found it on W. H. Auden —usernamekiran (talk) 12:09, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! I noticed it on [1] – but I suppose it is quoted regularly on several sites Mepherl (talk) 12:26, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Mepherl: oh, you meant on Deutsch. I see you've already fixed it. Yes, it highly possible it is used on multiple sites. But the whitelist is common, so it should not happen again. See you around :-) —usernamekiran (talk) 12:29, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Bot error at Editions of Dungeons & Dragons

Looks like the KiranBOT thinks http://www.wizards.com/dnd/Article.aspx?x=dnd/dramp/20100806 (also a dead link, so see archived link) is an AMP tracking link (see this edit by the bot). This just appears to be how Wizards of the Coast use to format links & isn't an AMP. Not sure if this error has appeared elsewhere (Editions of Dungeons & Dragons is on my watchlist).

The bot reverted my correction; I reverted the bot again & added {{bots|deny=KiranBOT}} to the ref which will hopefully work as a stopgap but I've never run into an issue like this with a bot. Sariel Xilo (talk) 02:11, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
