:{{Re|Steue}} Not currently; it was a possible planned feature in a "Cosinebot" that hasn't yet come to fruition. I kind of got blackholed into the real world for the past few years. :( You can of course use {{tl|unsigned}} (and related) to manually do it yourself, but there's not yet a magic way to get the bot to do it.--]<small><sup>\&nbsp;]&nbsp;/</sup></small> 09:37, 21 June 2023 (UTC)


Hello,
::Thanks for: the ping, your answer and the link {{tl|unsigned}}.
::From this link's page it looks as if one would still have to:
::# search in the history: ''when'' a specific post got posted,
::# then ''who'' posted it ( ''registered'' or ''IP address'' ),<br>Only when one knows this fact can one decide ''which'' template to use.
::# remember ''how'' the appropriate template is called -- or fetch this information from somewhere else -- ''if'' one knows from where,
::# pick / copy the necessary data ''manually'' from the history and
::# insert them ''manually'' into the template.
::
::What I was hoping for was/is a function which does all this, plus makes it ''un''-necessary (for the ''human'' editor) to know whether a contributor was logged in or only had an IP address.
::
::My guess is that most IP addresses are dynamic, which means: after more than 24 hours they are no longer valid, which would make a link to it's talk page useless as well.
::So, in most cases, the only usefull service which was rendered by the template would be:
::* the standard wording and
::* the link to ].
::
::Because of all this "hassle", when I want to add a signature of someone else, I still just edit ''everything'' by hand, even if ''my'' wording might not be exactly standard.

I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Misplaced Pages. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its ] and view its ].
== SineBot query ==


Take the survey ''''''.
Hi. Thanks for all your work on SineBot (and everything else). A question about the bot has come up at ]. If you have a moment could you take a look at that thread and see if you can diagnose why the bot failed to sign in that instance? Obviously, the specific instance is trivial, but wondering if there's a more systemic issue that might warrant a tweak to the code. Thanks and regards, ] (]) 16:33, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
:{{Re|Newyorkbrad}} Based on (I'm assuming), my guess is the {{tlx|cite}} template. With a few exceptions for specific venues (e.g., iplinks/userlinks/etc on AIV), the bot will skip over posts with non-{{tlx|tl}} template use, making the assumption that either someone knows what they're doing, something more complex might be happening (e.g., collaborative editing), and/or that by signing the addition it might add a signature in an awkward way, given the unlimited variability of template output. It also flips from opt-out-of-signing to opt-into-signing when someone reaches 800 edits (though that's not the case here); I mention it because it might(?) also sometimes be a source of {{Ping|Bbb23}}'s frustration over when it skips someone's post. --]<small><sup>\&nbsp;]&nbsp;/</sup></small> 00:27, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

slakr's life is currently frolicking with chaos, so his activity and response times to queries will be highly variable.
Leave a message and he will respond whenever he gets a chance— that is, assuming he gets a chance. Cheers =)

Ideally, please use this link to post new messages at the bottom. If you can't find something you recently posted, I might have moved it down there or it could have been archived if you posted it over 7 days ago. Cheers :)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Comment

Regarding slakr:

Why did my page get deleted? Please see Misplaced Pages:Why was my page deleted? first. I have no idea what you're talking about. What's vandalism? If you received a warning from me and you're not logged in, you might have gotten an old warning I sent to someone who shares your IP address. On the other hand, if you've made recent edits and received a recent warning message from me and you genuinely believe that it's not vandalism, don't fret-- simply drop me a message below, because I could have simply made a silly mistake. :)

Regarding SineBot:

Why does SineBot keep signing stuff I've already signed? All comments should have a signature that includes both a link to your user page (slakr) and a datestamp (05:12, 20 August 2007 (UTC)) (per signatures - internal links). This is most easily generated by placing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your contributions, which makes something like "slakr 05:12, 20 August 2007 (UTC)".

If you have an interwiki-linked user page, consider either creating a user page on enwiki that redirects to your preferred home wiki or simply opting out of automatic signing.

If you're still having problems after trying that, post a message below. Be sure to include diffs to make sure I can reference the problem. I don't want my comments signed by SineBot. How do I get it to ignore me or my talk page? Please use one of the opt-out methods listed on its user page. SineBot forgot to sign something it should have signed. Usually this happens because the bot isn't sure if it really should sign something, so it defaults to not signing it (e.g., in cases of complex edits). It does this to avoid being annoying. Other times, a comment might be made when the bot is down for maintenance, so the bot simply never sees it. SineBot signed something that it genuinely should not have signed. Please let me know-- especially if you think it's not a one-time thing. Be sure to include diffs to make sure I can reference the problem. Is SineBot's source code available? Not currently. I'm signing with four tildes (~~~~) but it's still saying I didn't! You likely enabled raw signatures. Open your preferences, click the "User profile" tab, make sure that "Treat the above as wiki markup" is NOT checked, and click Save; it should be fixed. If you have an interwiki-linked user page, consider either creating a user page on enwiki that redirects to your preferred home wiki or simply opting out of automatic signing.
