Huggle not broken

A unified account seems to fix the problem. I went to Special:MergeAccount and after I could get in Huggle. --CanadianLinuxUser (talk) 18:21, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
A lot of other stuff is broken as well. For example, blocking. Calvin 1998 (t·c) 19:51, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The latest version

Seems to have a slight problem with the watchlist. 1. It does not remember settings when shutting down. 2. It adds about everything to the watchlist, if you want or not... --Say Headcheese!--hexaChord2 22:40, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, I'm having this problem too. Jclemens (talk) 03:28, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It's really strange, sometimes it will add only User Talk Pages to the Watchlist, sometimes all edited pages. A good way is to save the raw watchlist before using Huggle. --Say Headcheese!--hexaChord2 17:42, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It seems to alway happen when I try reverting an edit that has already been reverted, e.g. just now on February 9 where I provoked it: Pseudobot had already reverted, I tried it anyway, the logmessage said "Did not revert 'February 9': The content of the target revision is identical to that of the current revision", and sure enough it's on my watchlist now. --AmaltheaTalk 18:11, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, I can back up that theory. It adds all User Talk Pages and all articles, that have been reverted seconds before. --Say Headcheese!--hexaChord2 23:28, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
When trying to undo recent (own) edits my 0.8.3 always crashes. --Say Headcheese!--hexaChord2 18:19, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keyboard shortcuts in 0.8.3

In huggle 0.8.2 I have set these custom keybord shortcuts:
NumPad0 - Next change (instead of default space)
NumPad1 - Revert and warn vandalism (Instead of default Q)
NumPad2 - Revert and warn spam (Instead of default Ctrl+Shift+S)
etc.
But in 0.8.3 I think this functionality is missing. I couldn't find a way to configure it to send {{uw-spam}} notice to the user when I'm reverting linkspam. Is there a way to tweak huggle to get this function in 0.8.3? --[[::User:Unpopular Opinion|Unpopular Opinion]] ([[::User talk:Unpopular Opinion|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Unpopular Opinion|contribs]]) 10:36, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Summary bug (0.8.3 - pt.wiki)

Sometimes summary is not right like in this example. Doesn't show edit username target "LijeBot" (in this case).

main-tip-undo:             Desfazer minhas ações recentes 
main-history:              História

Don't see this translations. First one is ALT text for "Undo recent actions" button and second one is "History" button (ALT: "retrieve page history") right? Of course this is a low priority request. Mosca (talk) 19:46, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Watch this page

Good idea to have pages I prod automatically added to my watchlist; however, even though Huggle tells me it does that (by changing the "watch this page" icon), it really isn't doing any edit to my watchlist unless I manually click on the icon - twice. -- Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 02:09, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I think it does edit your watchlist automatically, it just doesn't get logged... Calvin 1998 (t·c) 04:48, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
No, I can tell that it does not edit my watchlist. -- Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 12:26, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Where did keyboard shortcuts go?..

In ver. 0.8.3 many useful keyboard shortcuts just disappeared… Huggle 0.8.2 had shortcuts for many choices of revert+warnings (deleted content, factual error, edit test, …). Now I have to dig through menus, and since it's really painful on a notebook, I'm afraid Huggle is going to be simply unusable on Wibrain UMPC that I've just ordered… :-(
I'm going to stick with 0.8.2 for now. Skarebo (talk) 02:37, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reverting vandalism to previous vandalism

I constantly see edits being reverted via Huggle to previous versions of vandalism. The vast majority of times it is a revision of an anonymous edit to a previous anonymous edit of a different IP. Honestly I can't think of a good way around this, but maybe other editors can think of a way to at least force Huggle users to see not only the revision that they're reverting to, but perhaps just when an edit is reverting to another anonymous edit it shows you the changes that were previously made before the anonymous edit that's being reverted to? Or maybe some type of alert that says "are you sure you want to revert to another anonymous edit?" similar to the alert when you try to revert to a previous edit of the editor that you're currently reverting? Shirulashem (talk) 03:02, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think there's a feature on HUG (I haven't used it...if I have, I don't remember) that allows you to choose a specific revision you want to rv to. Usually when this kind of thing happens, I manually use TW to restore a specific revision, which usually works pretty well. ♫ IceUnshattered [ t ] 22:01, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Right, but not enough people are doing it because this problem is so widespread. shirulashem (talk) 19:40, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There is such feature. Use right mouse button in a previous edit on that page (in history bar). I don't understand why people don't check first some previous edits before reverting. Mosca (talk) 18:57, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting Discovery (Also applies for 8.2)

If you have a restricted account on your computer, it is impossible to log in to a new version of Huggle unless you access Huggle with an admin account. (admin on your computer, not on wiki) After the first time, you can log in to Huggle with a restricted account. Is this meant to happen? Leujohn (talk) 03:59, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, found it.
  • 5. It frequently gets "stuck" trying to "Show previous revision to this page [Z]", greying out the button, not showing the previous revision, and not displaying an error message. In these cases, I have confirmed that previous revisions do exist.

Problem

When trying to load Huggle 0.8.3, I am getting this error message "failed to load message files: no response." What shall I do? Shiva (Visnu) 20:13, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of keyboard shortcuts

v 0.7.12 had keyboard shortcuts (along the lines of Ctrl+shift+s for spam) for revert and warn with a specific warning (spam, blanking, tests and so on.) Why has this been removced? Can we have it back? Jonathan Hall (talk) 10:09, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Blanking Pages

A couple times in the past few days, Huggle has been blanking the pages that I've put CSDs on. I was about to put the latest example on, then my brain kicked in and told me the page was deleted already. So I guess I can't provide examples. But Huggle applies the speedy deletion template, and erases everything else on the page. Killiondude (talk) 08:19, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Huggle does that on purpose for attack pages for obvious reasons. --Closedmouth (talk) 08:40, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, that makes sense. I didn't see the connection. Thanks. Killiondude (talk) 22:55, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Freezes when I cancel an action

I'm running Huggle version 0.8.3, and whenever I try to cancel a pending action (pressing Escape or the cancel button on the top bar), Huggle freezes irrecoverably; I must use task manager to close the program and restart it to continue using. This happens every time I try to cancel an action. Not sure what is wrong, or if anyone else is having this problem.

For reference, I'm running Windows XP and, as stated above, am using version 0.8.3. Assistance or advice is much appreciated. Robert Skyhawk (Talk) 03:40, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Duplicate of #0.8.3 problem. --AmaltheaTalk 03:59, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bug

When I opened Huggle, I noticed it was unusually slow to the point wherethere were several reverts and warnings that did not execute because the "request timed out." Soon after, this bug appears: (Translation: Some of this is in chinese. The first phrase means "Call control top only possible after monitor control code constructed." The individual characters mean "at.") InvalidOperationException: 視窗控制代碼建立後才能呼叫控制項上的 Invoke 或 BeginInvoke。

Not blocking

Here's my problem; If I use huggle at home, and revert a level-4 warned user, it will prompt to block them. If I use my work pc, it doesn't prompt to block them at all, just adds a report to AIV. The only differences between environments is that at work I need to go through a proxy and they block IRC. At home, no proxy and I can use IRC. Is this the "Fixed admin functions not working" update in 0.8.4? Or something different? Thanks. --Kbdank71 15:41, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Project config was changed (to allow block feature) and then reverted back. Adding the block feature restricts people to version 0.8.3; while some users prefer to use older versions of huggle due to problems with v0.8.3 (see threads above). Let's hope that 0.8.4 release will solve this thing:/ -[[::User:Unpopular Opinion|Unpopular Opinion]] ([[::User talk:Unpopular Opinion|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Unpopular Opinion|contribs]]) 20:46, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Memory Leak?

I used reverted/warned on an edit that I should not have. I immediately click on the undo recent actions button, at which point my computer virtually froze, and had massive hard disc activity. After a short while I checked the Windows Task Manager and saw that Huggle was claiming about 280M of memory, which was rapidly rising (faster than I think it should need to). I killed huggle, and restarted it and now it is only showing 58M of memory being used. I have just tried to recreated this on the huggle sandbox but cannot.

Two concerns

1) Huggle is slow when moving onto the next article in the list: Is this due to the large amount of users using the program? Or is it because Wikipedia's servers are slow? (It's not me; my internet and computer are both relatively decent) 2) Is there a way for me to ignore specific articles/pages? I keep rv'ing people editing WP:SANDBOX and it's annoying because I have to stop and go and correct my error. Thanks in advance for any help, guys. ScarianCall me Pat! 22:27, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As far as the speed goes, I've been using v0.7.12 this evening, and it's much more responsive than 0.8.3 here, though it has its own foibles of course. I guess the later versions are slower because of all the useful additions and checks that have been added to the program. Anyone fancy rewriting it as a multi-threaded application ;-)  —SMALLJIM  22:39, 9 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I might try and switch back to that version then. Thanks Jim! ScarianCall me Pat! 00:58, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I've been having problems with 0.8.3 being rather slow as well when editing via my primary account. My laptop is fairly decent, with a 2.4 GHZ P4 in it. I have yet to try 0.7.12 on it, I'll have to try this out as well. UntilItSleeps PublicPC (talk) 20:53, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Flagged Revisions

Hi, I'm from the german wikipedia, where flagged revisions are active. Huggle is used by some of our recent changes patrollers (yay to Huggle :-)). Therefore it would be really great if you could include interaction with flagged revisions as an option. Reverts are completely fine and will be flagged automatically, the feature we would like to have is the possibility to flag good edits as sighted from the Huggle interface. As it is now, all the checking of good edits has to be done twice if the RC-patroller uses huggle. The other supported project that uses flagged revisions is the ru.WP, so they would be happy as well. Any chance? Best, --P. Birken (talk) 15:29, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Watchlist problem with 0.8.3

Huggle version 0.8.3 is adding warnings to my watch list even though I do not have warnings checked in the Options/Editing/Add to Watch list window. The only items that I have checked to add to my watch list are the default settings of Block Notifications, Deletion Request Notifications, Deletion Discussion tags, Proposed Deletion tags and Speedy Deletion tags.

Not having that problem per se, but I am having unexpected huggle/watchlist interaction. I have it flagged as you do, but when I Speedy Tag something, it does not get added to my watch list.

Huggle Crashing

Whenever my wireless network goes down, Like it does maybe every now and then, or whenever our portable phone is picked up (Our portable phone/base, and our wireless router both happen to operate at 2.4 GHZ, so they sometimes cause problems with each other), Huggle crashes irrecoverably, and I am forced to start it up again.

Filter for new pages of non-trusted users only

Hello, I am not a user from Huggle in the Spanish Wikipedia, but as far as I've understood it, it's possible to hide the changes done by trusted users (those in the white list), but it's not possible to filter for new pages (not displaying all other changes). In the Spanish wikipedia there is an organised patrolling project specialized in the monitoring and improvement of new pages only. If this tool would be able to display the pages created only by users not included in the whitelist, it would be a great help for us and tomorrow 10 more adicted users would be making good use of the tool. What do you think about this feature?, Poco a poco...¡adelante! 00:48, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There's already that ability in 0.8.3. There's a pre-defined filter for New Pages, and you can modify it to only show edits from Anonymous users. Is this what you're looking for? ArakunemTalk 02:08, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Queue not updating

The queue of recent changes doesn't seem to be updating properly. Since switching to 0.8.3, it seems that I often click on an entry in the queue only to find that one or sometimes two further revisions have already been done to the article. Obviously there's the real possibility of two users checking the same edit at the same time, but I get the real impression that the queue has gone "stale" and not been updated as quickly as it was in 0.8.2. Matt Deres (talk) 17:19, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sort of related issue. When I "skip" a "good" edit, it comes back into the queue after the 30 second timeout. Is there a way to say "Good" edit, don't bring it back (in addition to "Skip, because I don't know the subject")? -- Mjquin_id (talk) 21:31, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion

When you press the 'Revert and Warn' button, a drop-down menu comes up, with 'Vandalism', 'Spam', 'Personal Attacks', etc? I think a 'Patent Nonsense' feature should bve added.

No, it wouldn't. You'll note that Huggle's warnings are separate from the "uw-" warnings as well, with good reason -- Gurch (talk) 20:48, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Gurch, best I can tell Huggle will work with them perfectly well? The current notification templates are already placing the section headers themselves, so it seems to me that e.g. "{{subst:huggle/db-band-notice|1=$1}}" could very easily be changed into "{{subst:uw-csd-a9|1=$1}}". Where do you see the problem? Or are you concerned that there might be frequent changes to the uw templates that can break the notifications Huggle leaves? A big warning in the template documentation should be enough to prevent most of those.
The only thing in this change that concerns me with regards to huggle is that it might mistake CSD notifications as warnings due to these expressions from WarningSummaries.txt:
w1 uw-[^ ]+1
w2 uw-[^ ]+2
w3 uw-[^ ]+3
w4 uw-[^ ]+4
But from what I understand those only change queue priorities and the icons used for a specific edit. Nonetheless, they could probably be changed to use the same syntax Processing.vb does:
w1 uw-([a-z]*)1

Invalid token errors

Today I opened 0.8.3 and attempted to revert this edit. Huggle gave me a message that it did not revert the edit due to an "invalid token", which is a message I've seen before. So, I opened FF, went to the page, checked the history and reverted the edit using Twinkle (see here). Twinkle opened a blank user talkpage for me, but when I went to add the warning, I got a notice that a warning had been added in the last minute. I refreshed the talk page and there was my warning - care of Huggle! What the hell? Why would it refuse my reversion, then apply a warning concerning an edit it wouldn't let me make to the talkpage a minute later? I'm going back to 0.8.2; this is nuts. Matt Deres (talk) 23:57, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

0.8.2 will likely do the same thing. This is a consequence of the way in which Huggle decides whether to issue warnings. Sometimes reverts appear to succeed even when they do not -- if two people revert the same page at the same time, the edit will only be attributed to one of them but it will appear to both that the edit was successful. (This is because MediaWiki doesn't bother complaining about an edit conflict if the two conflicting edits are identical, it just goes ahead and commits whichever one it got first). Obviously it is no good to have Huggle warning for reverts made by someone else. So it has no way of knowing whether it should warn or not based only on what it gets back when trying to make the edit -- it could incorrectly warn for a revert done by someone else at the exact same time. So instead, when you try to revert a page, it makes a note that you've done so, and then watches recent changes. If a revert on that page made by you shows up, it knows the revert succeeded and goes ahead with the warning. If no revert shows up, or one does show up but it is made by someone else, it knows something went wrong or you were beaten to the revert, and doesn't warn. What happened in your case was its own revert failed, but it then saw the Twinkle revert, and as that was also made by you, it assumed that was what it was waiting for and went ahead with the warning -- Gurch (talk) 03:28, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, so what's this invalid token error? I never saw it when I used 0.8.2. Thanks for the explanation, by the way, but I am going to shift back to see if my other problems persist. 0.8.3 sometimes (and sometimes doesn't) add users I warn and pages I revert to my watchlist, despite having that option unchecked and I'd swear the queue is not updating properly.

It seems to alway happen when I try reverting an edit that has already been reverted, e.g. just now on February 9 where I provoked it: Pseudobot had already reverted, I tried it anyway, the logmessage said "Did not revert 'February 9': The content of the target revision is identical to that of the current revision", and sure enough it's on my watchlist now. --AmaltheaTalk 18:11, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, I can back up that theory. It adds all User Talk Pages and all articles, that have been reverted seconds before. --Say Headcheese!--hexaChord2 23:28, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keyboard shortcuts in 0.8.3

In huggle 0.8.2 I have set these custom keybord shortcuts:
NumPad0 - Next change (instead of default space)
NumPad1 - Revert and warn vandalism (Instead of default Q)
NumPad2 - Revert and warn spam (Instead of default Ctrl+Shift+S)
etc.
But in 0.8.3 I think this functionality is missing. I couldn't find a way to configure it to send {{uw-spam}} notice to the user when I'm reverting linkspam. Is there a way to tweak huggle to get this function in 0.8.3? --[[::User:Unpopular Opinion|Unpopular Opinion]] ([[::User talk:Unpopular Opinion|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Unpopular Opinion|contribs]]) 10:36, 18 November 2008 (UTC)

Good idea to have pages I prod automatically added to my watchlist; however, even though Huggle tells me it does that (by changing the "watch this page" icon), it really isn't doing any edit to my watchlist unless I manually click on the icon - twice. -- Blanchardb -Me•MyEars•MyMouth- timed 02:09, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reverting vandalism to previous vandalism

I constantly see edits being reverted via Huggle to previous versions of vandalism. The vast majority of times it is a revision of an anonymous edit to a previous anonymous edit of a different IP. Honestly I can't think of a good way around this, but maybe other editors can think of a way to at least force Huggle users to see not only the revision that they're reverting to, but perhaps just when an edit is reverting to another anonymous edit it shows you the changes that were previously made before the anonymous edit that's being reverted to? Or maybe some type of alert that says "are you sure you want to revert to another anonymous edit?" similar to the alert when you try to revert to a previous edit of the editor that you're currently reverting? Shirulashem (talk) 03:02, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think there's a feature on HUG (I haven't used it...if I have, I don't remember) that allows you to choose a specific revision you want to rv to. Usually when this kind of thing happens, I manually use TW to restore a specific revision, which usually works pretty well. ♫ IceUnshattered [ t ] 22:01, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of keyboard shortcuts

v 0.7.12 had keyboard shortcuts (along the lines of Ctrl+shift+s for spam) for revert and warn with a specific warning (spam, blanking, tests and so on.) Why has this been removced? Can we have it back? Jonathan Hall (talk) 10:09, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Blanking Pages

A couple times in the past few days, Huggle has been blanking the pages that I've put CSDs on. I was about to put the latest example on, then my brain kicked in and told me the page was deleted already. So I guess I can't provide examples. But Huggle applies the speedy deletion template, and erases everything else on the page. Killiondude (talk) 08:19, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Freezes when I cancel an action

As far as the speed goes, I've been using v0.7.12 this evening, and it's much more responsive than 0.8.3 here, though it has its own foibles of course.

Wikipedia:Flagged Revisions

Hi, I'm from the german wikipedia, where flagged revisions are active. Huggle is used by some of our recent changes patrollers (yay to Huggle :-)). Therefore it would be really great if you could include interaction with flagged revisions as an option. Reverts are completely fine and will be flagged automatically, the feature we would like to have is the possibility to flag good edits as sighted from the Huggle interface. As it is now, all the checking of good edits has to be done twice if the RC-patroller uses huggle. The other supported project that uses flagged revisions is the ru.WP, so they would be happy as well. Any chance? Best, --P. Birken (talk) 15:29, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is an ignored pages section in the project config. Problem is that it broke. Suggestion: slow down and look at the page title before reverting. Calvin 1998 (t·c) 02:51, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Filter for new pages of non-trusted users only

Hello, I am not a user from Huggle in the Spanish Wikipedia, but as far as I've understood it, it's possible to hide the changes done by trusted users (those in the white list), but it's not possible to filter for new pages (not displaying all other changes). In the Spanish wikipedia there is an organised patrolling project specialized in the monitoring and improvement of new pages only. If this tool would be able to display the pages created only by users not included in the whitelist, it would be a great help for us and tomorrow 10 more adicted users would be making good use of the tool. What do you think about this feature?, Poco a poco...¡adelante! 00:48, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There's already that ability in 0.8.3. There's a pre-defined filter for New Pages, and you can modify it to only show edits from Anonymous users. Is this what you're looking for? ArakunemTalk 02:08, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Queue not updating

The queue of recent changes doesn't seem to be updating properly. Since switching to 0.8.3, it seems that I often click on an entry in the queue only to find that one or sometimes two further revisions have already been done to the article. Obviously there's the real possibility of two users checking the same edit at the same time, but I get the real impression that the queue has gone "stale" and not been updated as quickly as it was in 0.8.2. Matt Deres (talk) 17:19, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sort of related issue. When I "skip" a "good" edit, it comes back into the queue after the 30 second timeout. Is there a way to say "Good" edit, don't bring it back (in addition to "Skip, because I don't know the subject")? -- Mjquin_id (talk) 21:31, 14 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Sandbox

How do I make it so Huggle does not show changes to Wikipedia:Sandbox? --Elassint (talk) 17:54, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Queues > Manage all Queues > check "Ignore pages on the ignored list". Calvin 1998 (t·c) 18:27, 13 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Gurch did just that, but that revision isn't in 0.8.3, so you'll have to wait until he releases the next version. Calvin 1998 (t·c) 03:45, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion

When you press the 'Revert and Warn' button, a drop-down menu comes up, with 'Vandalism', 'Spam', 'Personal Attacks', etc? I think a 'Patent Nonsense' feature should bve added. Or does everyone else think that the 'Editing Tests' function covers this? TopGearFreak 18:28, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Change default browser?

Hello all! Is there a way to change the browser that is opened when I click "View this in external browser" on the toolbar? I would rather use Firefox over Internet Explorer. Sdkochman (talk) 13:08, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You will have to make Firefox the default browser of your system. In Firefox go to Tools>Options>Advanced>General tab and click "check now" where it says always check to see if Firefox is the default browser.. -[[::User:Unpopular Opinion|Unpopular Opinion]] ([[::User talk:Unpopular Opinion|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Unpopular Opinion|contribs]]) 14:58, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
Oh. I thought I did that, but I am on a multi-user system so someone else probably changed it. Thanks! Sdkochman (talk) 21:00, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

CSD notifications

There's a discussion about making the CSD notices fit the "uw-" style user warnings at WT:UTM#UW templates for CSD, which would be a good opportunity to unify the three different notices (manual, Twinkle, Huggle) we have a the moment. --Amalthea 14:22, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, it wouldn't. You'll note that Huggle's warnings are separate from the "uw-" warnings as well, with good reason -- Gurch (talk) 20:48, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Gurch, best I can tell Huggle will work with them perfectly well? The current notification templates are already placing the section headers themselves, so it seems to me that e.g. "{{subst:huggle/db-band-notice|1=$1}}" could very easily be changed into "{{subst:uw-csd-a9|1=$1}}". Where do you see the problem? Or are you concerned that there might be frequent changes to the uw templates that can break the notifications Huggle leaves? A big warning in the template documentation should be enough to prevent most of those.
The only thing in this change that concerns me with regards to huggle is that it might mistake CSD notifications as warnings due to these expressions from WarningSummaries.txt:
w1 uw-[^ ]+1
w2 uw-[^ ]+2
w3 uw-[^ ]+3
w4 uw-[^ ]+4
But from what I understand those only change queue priorities and the icons used for a specific edit. Nonetheless, they could probably be changed to use the same syntax Processing.vb does:
w1 uw-([a-z]*)1

Invalid token errors

Today I opened 0.8.3 and attempted to revert this edit. Huggle gave me a message that it did not revert the edit due to an "invalid token", which is a message I've seen before. So, I opened FF, went to the page, checked the history and reverted the edit using Twinkle (see here). Twinkle opened a blank user talkpage for me, but when I went to add the warning, I got a notice that a warning had been added in the last minute. I refreshed the talk page and there was my warning - care of Huggle! What the hell? Why would it refuse my reversion, then apply a warning concerning an edit it wouldn't let me make to the talkpage a minute later? I'm going back to 0.8.2; this is nuts. Matt Deres (talk) 23:57, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

0.8.2 will likely do the same thing. This is a consequence of the way in which Huggle decides whether to issue warnings. Sometimes reverts appear to succeed even when they do not -- if two people revert the same page at the same time, the edit will only be attributed to one of them but it will appear to both that the edit was successful. (This is because MediaWiki doesn't bother complaining about an edit conflict if the two conflicting edits are identical, it just goes ahead and commits whichever one it got first). Obviously it is no good to have Huggle warning for reverts made by someone else. So it has no way of knowing whether it should warn or not based only on what it gets back when trying to make the edit -- it could incorrectly warn for a revert done by someone else at the exact same time. So instead, when you try to revert a page, it makes a note that you've done so, and then watches recent changes. If a revert on that page made by you shows up, it knows the revert succeeded and goes ahead with the warning. If no revert shows up, or one does show up but it is made by someone else, it knows something went wrong or you were beaten to the revert, and doesn't warn. What happened in your case was its own revert failed, but it then saw the Twinkle revert, and as that was also made by you, it assumed that was what it was waiting for and went ahead with the warning -- Gurch (talk) 03:28, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, so what's this invalid token error? I never saw it when I used 0.8.2. Thanks for the explanation, by the way, but I am going to shift back to see if my other problems persist. 0.8.3 sometimes (and sometimes doesn't) add users I warn and pages I revert to my watchlist, despite having that option unchecked and I'd swear the queue is not updating properly.

Sandbox

Would it be possible to have edits to the WP:SANDBOX removed from the queue? SpencerT♦C 00:50, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Replying about the Sandbox

Would it be possible to autosend a message when somebody deletes the sandbox header and you revert it, politely asking them not to do so? Inferno, Lord of Penguins 22:09, 17 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why does the sandbox still have a header as part of the page? This is shown when users edit the page and is quite sufficent on its own -- 87.194.147.203 (talk) 01:19, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Typo

I don't know if this is the right place to report this, but there is a typo in the first log, which I italicized:

2008-12-17 9:16:35 PM (+-6:00) -- Attempting connection to IRC recent changes feed; this make take a few moments...

Admin tools

Hi. When I use Huggle 0.8.3, admin buttons don't appear (the report button is there, instead). If I use Huggle 0.8.2, the block user and delete buttons appear there. ¿Is something wrong? --Racso (talk) 16:02, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
