    Back on Feb 8, Dashbot replaced some links to redirects in this template with direct connections. This task doesn't seem to be listed on the bot's page as one of its functions, and it's a problem - those redirects are there intentionally (and in many other US county navboxes too), in order to have a central point for links like these that refer to subheadings within other articles, instead of having a potentailly fragile subheading link in each navbox. Why is the bot making these changes and how do I stop it? Colonies Chris (talk) 22:44, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

    WikiProject watchlist

    This is really useful! I see that aspects of my query may have been previously discussed.[1] [2] But if the answer's there, I've missed it or misunderstood.

    Do you know if it would be possible to generate a watchlist for WP:WikiProject RISC OS? This is technically (I believe) a task force under WP:WikiProject Computing.

    • The Project does not use its own banner template, so on Toolserver its articles are listed within WikiProject Computing.
    • Could/should we perhaps use Categories to generate a list instead?

    Thanks. --trevj (talk) 12:25, 24 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

    Problem with your bot

    Hi. I just logged in after a year or more and noticed that your bot deleted an ogg file that I had created and attached to a page for the song. It's a little annoying to put in the time and effort only to find out that someone deleted the page and now that file is gone instead of being put onto the album page or used somewhere. eldavojohn (talk) 22:16, 27 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

    Vandals on your bot's userpage

    I noticed that there were a lot of vandals on your bot's userpage saying he was &@*. You have to report those guys. Should I protect your bot's userpage?--Tepigisthe498th (talk to me!) 12:00, 28 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
