All archiving tasks which used to be performed by the MiszaBots are now performed by lowercase sigmabot III without the need to change the {{User:MiszaBot/config}} configuration. The actual MiszaBots are neither functioning nor expected to become functional. Please do not post here regarding archiving bots.
When posting on this page, please observe the following guidelines:
Discussions should be kept together, so unless you request otherwise, I will reply to your posts here and will also watch pages where I have posted myself and expect replies there. Do not use the {{talkback}} template or derivatives thereof here.
Keep content disputes on relevant articles' talk pages.
I'm not interested in XfD discussion adverts - these will be ignored. Similar requests by email are redirected to /dev/null immediately.
Don't revert edits to this talk page, unless they're obvious vandalism like blanking/malicious editing of other's comments etc. I'll deal with stupid/hate/spam messages myself by promptly ignoring them.
Thank you!
This user talk page might be watched by friendly talk page stalkers, which means that someone other than me might reply to your query. Their input is welcome and their help with messages that I cannot reply to quickly is appreciated.
Hi there - for some reason MiszaBot II (talk·contribs) isn't working for Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football although it used to do so absolutely fine. I thought it might be because one user was using unorthodox dates in their signature which the bot couldn't deal with, so I manually archived the posts. However the archive bot hasn't kicked into action despite me making that correction over 24 hours ago. Do I just need to wait a bit more or has something gone wrong? If you could take a look it would be very much appreciated, thanks! Qwghlm (talk) 10:32, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for sorting it out! I take it was the spam link causing problem? I'll bear it in mind in future if archiving doesn't work. Qwghlm (talk) 13:09, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The spam link too. But on top of that, a bug related to a recent change in MediaWiki was disabling the bot from creating new archive pages. Миша1318:16, 25 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
