I was surprised to discover that the bot removes entries from [[WP:AIVU]] when the named account is given a short block. This behaviour makes sense for [[WP:AIV]], but not for reports of serious violations of the username policy on [[WP:AIVU]]. See report of an attack name here [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Usernames_for_administrator_attention&diff=716780238&oldid=716778960] followed by short-term block [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log/block&page=User%3AAndrewgarfieldstightass] and removal of username report [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Usernames_for_administrator_attention&diff=716780389&oldid=716780238]. The bot should either be modified to react differently depending on which list it is working on, or a modified bot should be used for the username list.

User-reported
I reported a user for blocking.[1] Was any action taken on him? --Imdanumber1 (talk • contribs) 16:22, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
- This is the talk page for the robot that serves AIV, you want WT:AIV. (H) 16:26, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
Query
I need help renaming about 200 articles. Doing this by hand would take me all day.
Can your bot rename articles, or be adapted to do so?
If so, please contact me.
Thank you.

Suggestion for improvement to Bot
I was surprised to discover that the bot removes entries from WP:AIVU when the named account is given a short block. This behaviour makes sense for WP:AIV, but not for reports of serious violations of the username policy on WP:AIVU. See report of an attack name here [2] followed by short-term block [3] and removal of username report [4]. The bot should either be modified to react differently depending on which list it is working on, or a modified bot should be used for the username list. Meters (talk) 21:06, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
