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 =) zOMG!!! I need urgent assistance!!!1!! — banana? — kiwi? |
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 If you can't find something you recently posted, I might have moved it down there or it could have been archived if you posted it over 7 days ago.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) | |
|
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. |

Wikipedia_talk:Bots/Requests_for_approval#Request_to_modify_Yobot_authorization
Hi Slakr, thanks for the thorough write up. To nutshell it, would this be accurate:
Yobot's prior task approvals are amended as such: Portions of tasks utilizing AWB genfixes, or that otherwise result in cosmetic edits (broadly construed) are no longer approved.
- ? — xaosflux 06:11, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
- I guess if it needs a sort of super-short version, then that's probably fine. :P --slakr 08:10, 2 February 2017 (UTC)
Banana?
Hey Slakr!
 | This page contains material that is kept because it is considered humorous. Such material is not meant to be taken seriously. |
(Just replace 'page' with 'section' really.)
Don't know if you've seen the film or will get the joke but, Yknow how you've got the 'banana?' And 'kiwi?' Things above? Have you considered redirecting 'banana?' To Minions (film)? Personally I would have laughed if it had gone there already. If you don't get it, https:// youtu.be/awp_sNYf9mU (Without the space, because that site's on the blacklist) might be of some help.
