DatBot not counting above 10?

Hi DatGuy, I've noticed a pattern with the pending changes report by DatBot. Whenever the number of articles in the queue goes beyond 10, the bot stops reporting, and doesn't start again until the number dips below 10. This occurred this morning between 0631 and 0846; there were 14 in the queue to my knowledge around 0830. Previous instances were 28 December 0616-0746, and 27 December 0715-0845 and 0915-1115. As we need these reports most when the backlog is getting high, could you please investigate?: Noyster (talk), 09:19, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Weird. I'll definitely check it out. Dat GuyTalkContribs 10:57, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Happy New Year! Are you having any joy finding the glitch? Today with I expect many reviewers relaxing or recovering, the queue has gone over 20, but DatBot has still shown 10 - moderate backlog. If the problem is difficult to pin down, perhaps as interim you could tell the bot to equate 10 pages to high backlog? Thanks: Noyster (talk), 14:52, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Working on it now. Sorry. Happy New Year to you too! Dat GuyTalkContribs 14:56, 1 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No apparent change to this behaviour: see 0533-0703 today. Bumping thread for 15 days. : Noyster (talk), 14:11, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
That's fine, just returned. I'll work on it now. Dat GuyTalkContribs 19:30, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Suffering same issues as the old Theo bot? Did some files on the 30th, nothing since. I stopped Theo's bot (so there was no clash). Plenty of files in the category to do. Maybe one file is causing an error, and every time it starts it tries the same file and drops out? Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:38, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well, its another problem. I set it to run on daily. Yesterday and for some reason I forgot to import a module. If it doesn't work on the next runtime (00:00 UTC) I'll take another look. Dat GuyTalkContribs 19:40, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I'll still be up at midnight, I'll look then Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:43, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing has started. Ronhjones  (Talk) 02:28, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, I'll check it out then try and do a manual run. Dat GuyTalkContribs 07:56, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Well Done. Looks like it's mighty cured - It's rattled through over 2000 today. Quite a big test for it. For some reason it left the last 7, 2 were tagged today, so don't count, so 5 for some reason not touched. I did wonder if File:ClintonFernandes&NoamChomsky.jpg was an issue - I know '&' cause issues in urls. Maybe it will finish tomorrow. Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:15, 7 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I ran it on my local machine sadly. I might have to do that until I can find a long-term result. This is the 'error' log. Dat GuyTalkContribs 19:18, 7 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, well. An 0.3% failure rate is well respectable. I'll do them manually. Hope you manage to sort out the issue with moving it to the server. Ronhjones  (Talk) 19:55, 7 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Bookcover rights

Hi, I saw your edit here

I got permission from the publisher for the high resolution bookcover, see here. Can you please upload back the high resolution image? Thanks Korenreader (talk) 15:40, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm Back

It's been awhile, since wayyyy back in March 2016, but I'm still alive! (Heh, portal references) I'm still looking into the SSX thing I mentioned then, but I need to get ahold of my bearings and get my Wiki legs again, so what did I miss?Minecraftpsyco (talk) 22:57, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
