Hey up. I was just pondering the question of whether, if I wanted to become an admin (which I do), whether it would be best to file an RfA soon (1-2 weeks) or put it off (1-2 months). As a responsible admin - and one familiar with some of the stuff I've been up to lately - I was hoping you could help. The advantage of sooner rather than later would be that I am currently very enthusiastic about the project, and I really want to make a difference in admin areas, particularly SDs, bot matters (e.g. blocking, category tidy up) and to a lesser extent AfDs and templates. The downside is that certain cruel, cruel admins won't be able to see past the numbers, which I feel are good enough, at the very least. Anyhow, if you could advise - or even stretch to a personal opinion, I would be most grateful. - [[User:Jarry1250|Jarry1250]] <sup>([[User_talk:Jarry1250|t]], [[Special:Contributions/Jarry1250|c]])</sup> 18:58, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

SoxBot killing references

I took a look at my watchlist and saw several edits by the bot that, I guess, you have some sort of control over. On (at least) two instances, the bot actually killed the reference rather than repairing it. Logan Young edit, Alabama Crimson Tide football edit. –  LATICS  talk  06:21, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, I thought I fixed the expn problem. Frankly, I'm not sure what's wrong. It's late, and I can't deal with it now. Xclamation point 06:31, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, it did it at Northwestern State University too. - ✰ALLST☆R✰ echo 15:20, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Andrewmc123

You're quite right, of course, but is there such a procedure as speedy non-crat RfA closures (ala WP:NAC)? If so, what is that procedure? Thanks! It Is Me Here t / c 18:58, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The work of deleting IP vandalism on chem element pages

ACC

Apparently I've been suspended because I dropped request 24280. I've been requested to join IRC and explain my dropping of that case but no one appears to be in. Firstly, I had perfectly valid reasons (or what I thought were good reasons) for dropping that account, and secondly it's the only bad move I've made in my hundreds of account creations. Could you help find out why I was blocked immediately for this, rather than someone just initiating discussion which would seem far more rational and in proportion? —Cyclonenim (talk · contribs · email) 11:31, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No worries now actually, I've found out who the blocking admin was so I'll ask them. Cheers anyway. —Cyclonenim (talk · contribs · email) 16:52, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I looked at my edit count and clicked on the links to the pages I had edited, but the link to ANI had the "/" replaced with "%2F":

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard%2FIncidents

This causes 404 errors on any page having a slash on it. --Enric Naval (talk) 21:25, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Already reported on the tracker, bug 4. — neuro(talk) 21:15, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

accesibility in edit counter

Under "Namespace totals", the text inside some of the colored boxes should be set to white, otherwise it's very difficult to read. Concretely: "article", "wikipedia", "file", "file talk" and "category talk". Maybe also "user talk" and "template". --Enric Naval (talk) 21:32, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Exclusion compliant?

Hi
What's the trick to get SoxBot II to stay off my user sub page User:Amalthea/test2? The page is part of a redirect loop I've set up as an example for a WP:VPR discussion.
Reverting the bot didn't bother him, putting {{nobots}} on the page wasn't enough either (despite his assertion that "this bot is exclusion compliant"). I've tried protection now, and am hoping that it doesn't have the sysop-flag set. :)
I realize that the page shows up on Special:DoubleRedirects and I'll blank the pages once the discussion is gone.
Cheers, Amalthea 18:38, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. Evidently, Chris's classes didn't have exclusion compliancy. I'll have to go port it to Pillar framework now. Xclamation point 21:04, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Great, thanks. :) --Amalthea 21:15, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Breakage

Not sure if you know about this but your tool breaks URLs when it inserts %2F instead of a /. -- Mentifisto 06:05, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it's a known bug. Xclamation point 15:27, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

SoxBot not operating correctly on double redirects to a subhead:

Hi your bot did this edit to fix the double redirect: http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=MVRP&oldid=277620481

But this wasn't quite right:

Before:

  • MVRP redir'd -> Multiple VLAN Registration Protocol
  • Multiple VLAN Registration Protocol -> Multiple Registration Protocol#Multiple VLAN Registration Protocol (MVRP)

The SoxBot dropped the fact that it redir'd to a subhead, which is actually important. -- KelleyCook (talk) 17:39, 16 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
