HelloWhat does white, black, and grey listing in IRC mean Example: Whitelist [[Blah]] etc. OneCoolKid 14:07, 30 September 2007 (UTC) W&MI have read the criteria and from my understanding this actually falls under "Fair Use"--there is no other image freely available online that shows the W&M campus from up top. I have scoured the web and there is none. Moreover, the copyright holder information IS in the image...click on it and you will see who owns it. She and I had e-mailed directly regarding her giving permission. I have placed the watermark there as per Fair Use requirements (I do not see why the watermark is any way a problem, however). Thank you for your time and patience (as I am new to this). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Higherededitor2 (talk • contribs) 21:27, 30 September 2007 (UTC)
Odd bot behaviour on Talk:Alcoholics AnoymousThe script on this file is set up the usual way, to archive weekly to a file. But at [1], we have "(Archiving 2 thread(s) (older than 24h) to /dev/null.)". It appears to me that someone created an instance of the bot to delete threads he found unpleasant. Is this a likely explanation? There is no obvious script in the file that would do this. Thanks. PhGustaf 07:39, 2 October 2007 (UTC) Talk page archivalHello Misza, Can you please check why the bot is not archiving the signpost sections on my talk page?

Archiving botsAny change you can make the miszabots' archiveheader setting default to {{talkarchive}}{{archive-nav|N}} (and correctly fill in the "N" with the archive number) rather than just
renameThanks a bunch, I totally forgot about updating that. — Dorf, was: AldeBaer 18:06, 4 October 2007 (UTC) Fixing my archive setupD'oh! Thanks ... richi 00:03, 5 October 2007 (UTC) En.WikibooksEn.wikibooks is looking for a discussion page archiver bot. Is there any chance that we could borrow/steal your bot for the purpose? --Whiteknight (talk) (books) 15:27, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
MiszaBotOver at WP:PW, we are discussing starting up a project notification to be delivered to project members weekly. I noticed that MiszaBot has previously delivered newsletters for both Esperanza and Concordia, so I was wondering if you'd be willing to let us take advantage of that function, assuming that it can be both a category tracker and deliver newsletters. So, would you be willing to let us use your bot? Cheers, The Hybrid 00:23, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
Wrong archiveThis bot archived 2 threads from Talk:Windows Vista to Talk:Windows Vista/Archive 8 when Talk:Windows Vista/Archive 10 is the current archive. Josh 13:36, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
MiszaBot IIMiszaBot II archives Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration, and is set to seven days. However, Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration#Clarification and several sections below it are much older than that. Why haven't they been archived? Picaroon (t) 17:43, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Bring back an image you deletedYou deleted Image:Scc_header_logo_195x78.jpg because the associated article had been incorrectly deleted. Now it's long past time to bring back the image. Cryptosmith (Rick Smith) 20:16, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
tEMPLATEWell, Hybrid told me to tell you, so the template was sent. You know, the COTW one. cheers. Lex94 23:26, 8 October 2007 (UTC) Annoying bot help requestI set up this user talk page to be archived by your bot (per user request), but somehow it doesn't appear to be working. I'd greatly appreciate if you could find the time to take a glance at the markup of that page and determine if I messed something up. Thanks in advance, — Dorftrottel 07:07, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

I think some people in our budding Wikiproject agree that we need automatic archiving for its talk page. Can you help? I'm not really good at coding and bots. Thanks.--Lenticel (talk) 22:44, 11 October 2007 (UTC) Playphone DeletionHi Misza, I was just researching the company [Playphone]http://en.wiki.x.io/w/index.php?title=Image:PlayPhone_Logo.PNG&action=edit, and noticed that a previous page that was created on the company has been deleted. I'm new to wiki as an editor, so I wanted to see if I could get some background on the issue before I attempt to recreate a page on the company.

Thank you kindlyAin't I just a total moron? I can't believe I moved the bot orders to my template – I thought I had only moved the box for the file cabinet icon and the archive list. Thank you thank you thank you for moving it back. – Scartol · Talk 18:00, 15 October 2007 (UTC) ThanksThanks for fixing the glitch at Wikipedia talk:Content review/workshop.

Archiving question - MiszaBot_IIICan you take a look at my talk page? I have it set to have MiszaBot_III archive posts older than 30 days and leave a minimum of 2. The first post has been there past 30 days and there are more than two other comments on the page. Thanks, KnightLago 16:27, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
Did I set up the bot correctly on my talk page? I set it to archive every 48hrs, but it has not archived anything yet. Curt Wilhelm VonSavage 07:31, 17 October 2007 (UTC).
Solar powerI see that yet another consequence of changing the article name was to mess up the archiving.

Hello Misza, I'd appreciate if you could restore this image (Image:Dimonalogo.png), as it is was apparently accidentally removed from the entry, but is now again in use. Cheers, TewfikTalk 16:49, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

Status switcher mod/cleanupI've done a little code cleanup on your status switcher script to get rid of a couple little bugs that were (no pun intended) bugging me a bit. You can see the changes in this diff. Basically, I made it use a different function to add the links and put them outside of li #pt-mycontris, since all four links were being bolded when viewing my contribs. I also set the script to use some of the MediaWiki-provided JavaScript variables instead of scraping data from the existing elements (username) or hard-coding (link prefix). If you tried using these variables (most notably wgUserName) and had a problem, let me know; I want to be able to port my version to another wiki if possible. I hope you'll integrate these fixes into the mainstream version. Tuvok[T@lk/Improve me] 06:55, 19 October 2007 (UTC) Question about a templating botHi Misza, I was curious as to whether there was a bot that added the archiving template "{{Discussion Top}}" (and bottom of course) to a thread that was about to be archived in (for example) a day or 2? R. Baley 20:41, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
Thank youfor fixing my screw-up relating to your bot on my talk page... oops - sorry No more bongos 19:06, 20 October 2007 (UTC) Status switcher isn't workingThe status switcher currently isn't working. Instead of saying "Wikidudeman is online" in the box, It only says "User:Wikidudeman/StatusText" in red. See my userpage, top right, for what it's doing.

Dmcdevit sucks, Luna Santin is better.I must say this one calls for some bigger guns, don't you think? Cheers,JetLover (Report a mistake) 02:39, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
Issue with creation of archive links on the Talk pageThe MiszaBot II bot is currently moving threads to archive pages, but it is failing to create a link to the archive page on the main Talk page. Either that, or it does not create the link until the archive page is full. This is an example of what I mean. If this is the intended behaviour, may I suggest that you reconsider it, as it renders recently archived threads hidden until their archive page is full. This causes big problems when a user is searching through the archives trying to follow the progression of related threads. It would be better if the bot create a links to an archive page when it first creates it, instead of when it is deemed to be full. —gorgan_almighty 11:47, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
Question about switching from WerdnabotEvery since Wernabot disappeared, Miszabot III has been archiving my pages. I wanted to change the template on my talk page to reflect this. So I copied the Miszabot instructions. Will Miszabot III continue to archive my pages now that I have changed the template? Thanks! --Mattisse 15:14, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

I'd like to put it back into the Nobel Prize in Literature article, from where it got temporarily deleted by an IMO rogue user. Depending on the provenance of the image (which I can't see, it having been deleted), there's also a strong possibility it may actually be copyright-expired in the USA.

Hello, Misza13 I come here to ask about your recent achieving AN/Incident. I filed a report regarding User:Sennen goroshi's abusive behaviors and racial slurs. That case is still not done yet, and I've not got any notice from any admins. Why did you move the report [3] to Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/IncidentArchive317. It is not fair and unreasonable. Were there any decision reached without any notice to me, or removed by accident? Please give me a reason and if there is no plausible explanation, restore it to the incident page. Thanks. --Appletrees 13:10, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

A vandal removed the image from the relevant article, Stockholm School of Economics, on 7 October 2007 [4]. I just noticed that edit and was planning to restore the correct image but it had already been deleted. Could you undelete the image so that it can be put back into the article? –panda 15:54, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
