| Hello, | |||
| == SineBot source code == | |||
| 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 ]. | |||
| Hello. Is source code of your bot available for download? I was asked to run a signing bot on another project, so it would be quite useful (there is no point in re-inventing the wheel:). ] (]) 12:19, 26 February 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :Hello. I think you missed my question (excluding my nick it was serious). ] (]) 12:43, 27 February 2008 (UTC) | |||
| ::Ah, yes, I think this was the issue. Hello :) Actually, I also spotted your bot in action and would be extremely happy to make it possible for it to work on plwiki, which is my home project (as well as the Invisible Idiont's, who's known as Beau on plwiki). Cheers. ] (]) 10:38, 28 February 2008 (UTC) | |||

| :::''*breaks cheerful and lighthearted demeanor for a moment*'' | |||
| Take the survey ''''''. | |||
| :::First and foremost, deferment isn't the worst kind of refusal— refusal is. I would have just said "no" if I never intended on releasing it, but as you'll see from my talk page archives, I actually ''was'' planning on doing it at some point in the future. | |||
| Kind Regards, | |||
| :::Another idea: you might consider living life from another person's perspective and attempt to understand possible motives for certain actions he or she may take. With enough experience in coding, you quickly realize that very unskilled, unimaginative, and otherwise selfish people are more than happy to run off with your code and claim it as their own work— sometimes for a profit— while you sit there in stupor wondering wtf just happened, all the while every last drop of your generative drive is sucked away, leaving you feeling unmotivated, alone, and betrayed. | |||
| ] | |||
| :::As a result, I'm slightly less than eager to wantonly release code on-demand any more— particularly if I've started a project with internal motivation and have put a decent amount of work into it to fix the many bugs/issues people have brought up. Of course, it doesn't really help that there are sites out there that, at the same time as running Mediawiki, indirectly and/or directly blast the very people who help maintain it, either. It also doesn't help that people come along and say that I shouldn't have even written something at all if I'm not going to by-default let everyone and their mother use it for whatever purpose they want and/or proceed to repeatedly post to my talk page in an effort to get their way. | |||

| == Signbot Oopsies == | |||
| I am pretty sure I know what's going on here. I have a non alphanumeric username and am linking through the romanized version of my username which redirect to my correct username, but signbot is signing it anyway. I realize this is probably more of a coding headache than is worth fixing, but I thought it might be worth noting for anyone else who decides to follow wikipedia's suggestion when they have foreign character usernames Does signbot look to make sure that the user links to their own talk page? | |||
| The easiest logical solution I can think of from a programming perspective would be to check if the username links to their own talk page, and if not, check to see if that talk page is a simple redirect to the proper one before having signbot sign the comment. | |||
| Let me know if you need any more clarification or want me to test anything for you! | |||

Are you saying an anonymous user who types "Matt <nowiki>~~~~~</nowiki>" is not making a good faith effort to sign?

Or is there some other issue I'm not seeing? -- ] <small>(])</small> 13:56, 7 March 2008 (UTC) | |||
| :::I'm not assuming bad faith or anything— nor does the bot. If anything, the bot serves to gently introduce people to the concept of signatures, how they work, and how to properly use them. I was also considering adding a small link to the tutorial into {{t1|tilde}}. In any case, if a particular user's signature fails ], the bot will let them know after they do it a few times, and the problem is solved. Also, if I changed the logic to acknowledge ''only'' datestamps as a valid signature, then it renders its {{t1|unsigned}} functionality that drops the time argument useless, which will cause people as well-meaning as you to come storm to my talk page demanding I program the bot to only use {{tlx|Unsigned|User}} instead of {{tlx|Unsigned|User|Date}}, as well as the {{tlx|Undated}} stuff useless as well. | |||

While this may not directly be relevant, I feel that the act of someone who is obviously very personally involved in Misplaced Pages/ED drama to deface our wiki could very well be related to the discussion we are currently having. Especially in regards to the question of NPOV of the parties involved. Permit me to degenerate into internet speak to illustrate this point. butthurt fgts from TOW are trolling our wiki because they are pissed someone had the cojones to re-create that shitstub. The notice on the talk page in and of itself is enough for anyone to see there are some obvious conflicts in interest in regards to this article.

If you checkuser the abusive IP, if it is not a proxy, would show who involved in the current debate has gone to unprofessional and extraordinary measures in regards to this matter, which would go towards the question of NPOV. --] (]) 07:56, 7 March 2008 (UTC) | |||

| Hello, here to bug you about your bot. Earlier today, an IP editor left a comment on my talk page but forgot to sign it. Naturally, SineBot dutifully came by and added the unsigned template . Problem is, I have the {{tlp|bots|deny=SineBot}} template on my talk page header ], which is in turn transcluded onto my talk page. What I'm not sure about, and why I'm contacting you about it, is whether this is SineBot ignoring the exclusion template for some reason, or if he's simply not seeing it because it's transcluded through another template. If that's the case, then it would be my fault, for which I apologize for bugging you about it. Either way, thanks for your time. ] <sup>(]/]/])</sup> 04:02, 12 March 2008 (UTC) | |||

| Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) | |
|
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. |
