User Talk Contributions Barnstars Email Hazard-Bot on SqWiki Hey there! Would it be possible to operate your bot on the Albanian Wikipedia (my homewiki) as well to periodically clean our sandbox? I can help with the bot approval procedure if you are available. - Klein Muçi (talk) 10:50, 19 March 2024 (UTC) @Klein Muçi: Hi! I’ll have to get back to you in a few days (around Sunday/Monday) to figure out the details and approvals, but yes, I should be able to clean the sandbox there too. Hazard-SJ (talk) 03:16, 22 March 2024 (UTC) Hey! Okay, no problem. Take your time. Let me know when you can. — Klein Muçi (talk) 09:32, 22 March 2024 (UTC) @Klein Muçi: Just to confirm, is it sq:Wikipedia:Livadhi (and is that the only one)? Would you like to create a subpage (e.g. simple:Wikipedia:Sandbox/Text) or template (e.g. en:Template:Sandbox reset) that contains the desired reset text? That will allow you to change the reset text used by the bot in the future without my intervention. If you do create one, I'd suggest at least semi-protecting it to prevent vandalism. I've started sq:Wikipedia:Robotët/Kërkesë për miratim/Hazard-Bot, and I can add it to sq:Wikipedia:Robotët/Kërkesë për miratim once I'm ready to start the trial edits (but let me know if I'm misunderstanding the process). Hazard-SJ (talk) 05:43, 26 March 2024 (UTC) Hello! You are correct in all steps. The template you mention already exists. Check this edit: Wikipedia:Livadhi (revision 2650307) In it you'll see the mentioned template along a comment which reinforces the fact that you should write below the template without removing it, for those editing the source code. Proceed however you think is best. You can either preserve it like it is, or use only the template. Either way, those have been "desperate" attempts to make the sandbox experience smoother when no bot was around. If a bot guarantees the existence of the template periodically in it then their importance falls down. We don't have as much traffic as EnWiki does and each user has a personal sandbox so the main one is used rather rarely (rare enough that manual work from an admin was enough to keep it on check). As for the trial edits, I suppose you can make around 5, given the aforementioned circumstances and the specific conditions of this task. You can manually use the sandbox yourself and let your bot fix it later automatically to see how it behaves. I'm not reseting the current state so you can have one edit done right there. Thank you in advance! — Klein Muçi (talk) 10:54, 26 March 2024 (UTC) Thanks for confirming, I'll get that started. Hazard-SJ (talk) 23:44, 26 March 2024 (UTC) Small nitpick but if you choose to preserve the comment below the template, feel free to play with the spaces on the text a bit so it better aligns overall. What I've shown you on that edit has been put together "in a hurry", without much consideration for that element (you can check that even the asterisks themselves don't align). Also, this line can be changed to include your bot's name: Kjo faqe pastrohet rregullisht nga Hazard-Bot. — Klein Muçi (talk) 00:42, 27 March 2024 (UTC) Can you please make the summary read "Pastrim automatik i faqes"? (Without the robot part.) — Klein Muçi (talk) 10:52, 27 March 2024 (UTC) To clarify from my earlier message, the subpage or template would have contain the entirety of the text (including any trailing comments) to be substituted when the sandbox is being reset. For example, non-template sandboxes on this wiki get replaced with {{subst:Sandbox reset}}, which effectively replaces their content with {{Please leave this line alone (sandbox heading)}} and the trailing comment. It's not necessary on sqwiki, but let me know if you want to do something similar. I did make some minor tweaks to the spaces. I didn't add my bot's name to the text, but I did update the edit summary as requested. Hazard-SJ (talk) 13:20, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
