Your block of Babel AutoCreate

Re your block of Babel AutoCreate (talk · contribs) - have you informed the bot's owner? --Redrose64 (talk) 09:33, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

Not yet. The bot page doesn't list an owner, and the instructions are to post at Bugzilla for disabling categories, so I was just about to file a new bug or two. The Babel extension author, User:RobertL, hasn't edited on enwiki for more than two years, so I don't think there is an operator here to notify anyway. Having said that, if a separate user is in charge of the bot, and you know who it is, please let me know. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 09:41, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

It is said to be "not a bot": AN December 2012. Johnuniq (talk) 10:05, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

It might not be under BAG's jurisdiction, but I don't think anyone will mind if we call it a bot. If it looks like a bot, and smells like a bot... In any case, I've filed bugs at bugzilla:61993, bugzilla:61994 and bugzilla:61995 if either of you want to comment there. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 12:40, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

• (talk page stalker), I've commented on two out of three of your tickets on Bugzilla and am wondering if there should be a community discussion about this or not. I think that the alternate case category page names (regardless of if they were previously deleted or not) should exist and be created as {{Category redirect}}s per CATRED. — {{U|Technical 13}} ^{(t • e • c)} 13:42, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

If pages are being categorised in e.g. Category:User En, they should be fixed so that they categorise correctly (in Category:User en or whatever). --Redrose64 (talk) 19:47, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

Sorry about that...

I didn't even realize I reverted you until I got the notification that you reverted me back. Complete accident. Sorry. Sergecross73 msg me 02:18, 28 February 2014 (UTC)

No worries. I did think it was quite ironic though. :) — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 02:19, 28 February 2014 (UTC)

WP:RPP

Sorry I messed up. Should've chosen the temporary one, dunno how it became indefinite... :p –HTD 11:53, 28 February 2014 (UTC)

Fuck

Hi, re the AN discussion, please see [1].

I hope this isn't 'canvassing' - I'm posting this to precisely 3 people (you, Britmax, and SarekOfVulcan), who expressed concern about the censorship, so I hope I'm OK. Best, 88.104.30.86 (talk) 20:09, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

You should probably just give this up. In two hours and ten minutes there won't even be any mention of the film on the front page at all. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 21:49, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

Dispute Resolution

Hello Mr_Stradivarius. I'd like to ask for your assistance as a volunteer in a dispute resolution on the thread Highland Clearances. I would be grateful. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.173.7.13 (talk) 12:45, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay in replying. It looks like Keithbob has things under control there, so I don't think my help is really needed. Best — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 13:00, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

Modifying Template:Uw-c&pmove

Hey! I would like to request you for modifying Template:Uw-c&pmove, I have found that most of the user/editors just copy and paste the template without signing (see here). If possible please add ~~~~ at the end of template tag. WOWIndian ^Talk 08:01, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

That would break Twinkle, as it automatically adds a signature after the template. If you added a signature to the template as well, you would end up outputting two signatures if you used it with Twinkle. If you want to change that, you should probably ask at Wikipedia talk:Twinkle - but that's the way Twinkle has worked for quite a long time, so beware that the Twinkle developers may not be so receptive to change.

Let it be, that's not a big deal :) .WOWIndian ^Talk 08:20, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

75.191.173.190

Thank you for looking into the matter, which seemed to have been overlooked by the typically nasty, pile-on (especially so with Kaldari) drama that plagues the venue. "My master, Annatar the Great, bids thee ^welcome!" 00:44, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

No worries - fingers crossed that everything turns out ok. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 04:35, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

thanls!

Thanks for your advice Mr Stradivarius, my first entry so I I will do my best to do it right! Yoelle — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yoellem (talk • contribs) 10:34, 12 March 2014 (UTC)
