• Hello!! I am Cyberpower678. I am an administrator on Wikipedia. Despite that, I'm still your run of the mill user here on Wikipedia.
• I specialize in bot work and tools, but I lurk around RfPP, AfD, AIV, and AN/I, as well as RfA. If you have any questions in those areas, please feel free to ask. :-)
• For InternetArchiveBot matters specifically, please see meta:InternetArchiveBot/Problem for common issues or meta:User talk:InternetArchiveBot to leave a message
• I also serve as a mailing list moderator and account creator over at the Account Creation Center. If you have any questions regarding an account I created for you, or the process itself, feel free to email the WP:ACC team or me personally.
• At current I have helped to create accounts for 2512 different users and renamed 793 other users.
• Disputes or discussions that appear to have ended or is disputed will be archived.

All the best.—cyberpower

No current discussions. Recent RfAs, recent RfBs: (successful, unsuccessful)

auto creation of "archiveurl" fields linking to "archive dot org" pages

Please forgive me if this comment really belongs at some other place -- such as User talk:InternetArchiveBot.

Sometimes, there can be a situation where a certain URL (example: http://www.scientomogy.com:80/ytmnd.php) may "seem" to work OK (especially "as seen by" some script, or robot...!) because it does not -- ["exactly"] -- get a "404" error, ... nor something like that which could easily be "detected" (checked for) by a robot, but rather, ... it takes one to ... (e.g.) some "temporary"-looking web page (is it called a domain "parking" page?), which suggests that the owner of the domain name is perhaps hoping that ... one of these 2 things will someday happen:

• The former owner will decide to resume paying money, for the web hosting or whatever it is, -- probably to restore the erstwhile OLD web site to its former name (and its former glory... haha)

OR ... maybe

• Someone else will [perhaps] be willing to pay, either for the use of that domain name, or for web hosting (maybe both). (right?)

I think this may be what happened with the URL in footnote number [21] here. Please (feel free to) see the edit comment -- especially the "PS:", which is about the second half of the edit comment -- at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=YTMND&type=revision&diff=860142283&oldid=858231683 there.

This might be a known issue already, among those "in the know" about User:InternetArchiveBot. Thanks for your patience if this is something that [almost] everyone except me already knows about.

...and, Thanks for listening. --Mike Schwartz (talk) 17:46, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

There's nothing that can be done here to the bot. Only humans can detect those at this time.—CYBERPOWER (Chat) 13:40, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

Typos correction for IABot talk messages in gl.wiki

Hi Cyberpower678, my fellows from gl.wiki have detected a couple of typos in the messages left by IABot in the talk pages of the modified archives, which is totally my fault for not asking a review from the community when I translated them initially. If possible, we would like to correct them for future messages. Using as reference the list of messages that I translated in the Phabricator related task, the needed corrections would be the following (marked in bold):

• 2nd message:
  • Ola compañeiros editores,\n\nAcabo de modificar {linksrescued} ligazóns externas en [[{namespacepage}]]. Por favor tomádevos un momento para revisar [{diff} a miña edición]. Se tedes calquera pregunta, ou precisades que o bot ignore ben estas ligazóns ou ben a páxina por completo, por favor visitade este FAQ para máis información. Fixen os seguintes cambios:\n{modifiedlinks}\nPor favor revisade o FAQ para máis información sobre como corrixir erros do bot.\n\nSaúdos.
• 4th message:
  • Ola compañeiros editores,\n\nAtopei unha ou máis ligazóns externas en [[{namespacepage}]] que precisan revisión. Por favor tomádevos un momento para revisar as ligazóns que atopei e corrixilas no artigo se fose necesario. Atopei os seguintes problemas:\n{modifiedlinks}\nUnha vez rematados os cambios necesarios, por favor visitade este FAQ para máis información sobre como arranxar calquera tipo de problema coas URLs mencionadas enriba.\n\nEste aviso só se fará unha vez para estas URLs.\n\nSaúdos.
• 12th message:
  • Corrixiuse o formato ou uso da ligazón {link}

I hope these changes are not much of a hassle. It's not an urgent request by any means, but we'd appreciate if you can take some time to correct these. My apologies for the added work caused, and thank you. BTW, the bot's been running smoothly since you implemented it, and it has been a great addition to our Wikipedia, thanks for all the effort on this awsome tool. Cheers! Banjo (talk) 21:14, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

@Banjo: Did you know you can do that yourself as well as any admin on Wikipedia? Just go to https://tools.wmflabs.org/iabot/index.php?page=wikiconfig&wiki=glwiki to make the changes. :-)—CYBERPOWER (Chat) 13:50, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the ArchiveBot

Nothing here, I just wanted to say thank you for your ArchiveBot. Saving external links is extremely important for Wikipedia, I'm really grateful that someone took the lead in managing the software that allows us to verify the sources even if their websites are long dead.

Concerning the "energy meter" and "stress thermometer"

Adminstats elsewhere

Hi Cyberpower, when you have time, can you help me getting {{Adminstats}} (& co.) on kowiki? I guess we obviously need that template but I don't know what other templates need to be ported over there. (kowiki does not require bot approval for all the tasks: you can safely run the task without local discussion provided speed is 1 edit per 60 secs (per m:Bot policy). — regards, Revi 18:28, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

Request

Please, save links into archive from this article. I'm afraid some of them would be not available during one or two days because of political censorship. — Дмитрий Кошелев (talk) 07:35, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

Bug in your bot operation

Hi, I have just found a series of mistakes in your bot operation. Can you please check this as an example? As you can see your bot left this: "[[Nemes Marcell" without properly closing the brackets. Can you please update your bot? Thanks. Csigabi (talk) 08:52, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

Bot is disabled in pt wiki?

Hi. After the bot was approved in pt wiki (discussion, request) it seems to have run for 2 days and then stopped. I tried using the interface to see what was going on, to no avail. Could you take a look? Saturnalia0 (talk) 13:55, 23 September 2018 (UTC)
