-:It's ''running'', but for some reason Yahoo no longer gives me search results through the API.  I'll look into it.  &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:Coren|Coren]]&nbsp;<sup>[[User Talk:Coren|(talk)]]</sup> 16:20, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
-::Interesting. Thanks.--[[User:NortyNort|NortyNort]]  <small>[[User talk:NortyNort|(Holla)]]</small> 02:29, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
-:::I, i'm the operator of italian copyright bot, i have the same problem, i have made a control on logfiles and i have found a sad truth: Yahoo no more offer a free search engine api [http://developer.yahoo.com/blogs/ydn/posts/2010/08/api_updates_and_changes] and not it use Boss interface [http://info.yahoo.com/legal/us/yahoo/search/bosspricing/details.html here] the prices [[User:Lusum|Lusum]] ([[User talk:Lusum|talk]]) 14:16, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

-::::Maybe using Bing that seem free? [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd250965.aspx Using SOAP (Bing, Version 2)] [[User:Lusum|Lusum]] ([[User talk:Lusum|talk]]) 14:33, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
-::::::Bing won't work, [http://www.bing.com/developers/tou.aspx their terms] are not compatible (in particular, 3) c. and h. are incompatible, and 6) is insurmountable).  &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:Coren|Coren]]&nbsp;<sup>[[User Talk:Coren|(talk)]]</sup> 03:47, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
-:::::In the words of P.T. Barnum:  "Oh, crap."  I'll start looking into alternatives now.  &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:Coren|Coren]]&nbsp;<sup>[[User Talk:Coren|(talk)]]</sup> 21:07, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
-::::::please tell me if you find someone so i can modify it.wiki bot too... [[User:Lusum|Lusum]] ([[User talk:Lusum|talk]]) 22:39, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
-:::::::This is kind of urgent. :/ Is there somebody we can appeal to that might help with this? One of the village pumps? A coder? --[[User:Moonriddengirl|Moonriddengirl]] <sup>[[User talk:Moonriddengirl|(talk)]]</sup> 14:45, 31 July 2011 (UTC)
-::::::::I'm talking with Google; but until that succeeds we're stuck without a search engine that has (a) a programattically accessible interface and (b) whose AUP allows this particular kind of reuse.  &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:Coren|Coren]]&nbsp;<sup>[[User Talk:Coren|(talk)]]</sup> 03:43, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
-{{unindent}} My fingers crossed! Will Google be tempted by a Barnstar? :/ --[[User:Moonriddengirl|Moonriddengirl]] <sup>[[User talk:Moonriddengirl|(talk)]]</sup> 13:09, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
-:I'm not especially worried that an arrangement can't be made:  it's more a question of finding the right person(s) to ask than any insurmountable obstacle, and Jimmy is giving me some help in that regard (he does have a number of friends and acquaintance at Google who will be able to talk).  I'd wager is more a matter of "when" and hammering out details than "whether".  Fingers crossed indeed.  &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:Coren|Coren]]&nbsp;<sup>[[User Talk:Coren|(talk)]]</sup> 13:21, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
-::the agreement will be valid also for copyright bots on wikis other than en? [[User:Lusum|Lusum]] ([[User talk:Lusum|talk]]) 11:36, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
-:::I'll make sure that it is.  &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:Coren|Coren]]&nbsp;<sup>[[User Talk:Coren|(talk)]]</sup> 13:40, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
-:MRG, Google may want some ads in return, eek.--[[User:NortyNort|NortyNort]]  <small>[[User talk:NortyNort|(Holla)]]</small> 13:13, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
-::I don't believe that would be considered to be an appropriate condition by anyone involved, and I certainly wouldn't agree to it.  I'm quite certain Google understands the necessity of our independence and how that would be a deal breaker (and there is no indication that they'd even ''request'' such a thing in the first place).  &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:Coren|Coren]]&nbsp;<sup>[[User Talk:Coren|(talk)]]</sup> 13:40, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
-* People are still adding requests to [[User:CorenSearchBot/manual]]; I suggest posting a notice there that it is not working. <font style="font-family:sans-serif;color:black;"> <span style="text-shadow:#0099cc 0.12em 0.12em 0.12em; class=texhtml">  '''''[[User:Sharktopus|Sharktopus]]'''''</span> [[user talk: Sharktopus|<sup>talk</sup></font>]] 03:42, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
-*:Good point.  I've put a notice in appropriate places.  &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:Coren|Coren]]&nbsp;<sup>[[User Talk:Coren|(talk)]]</sup> 15:14, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
-*Small update for people watching this thread:  there has been no progress as Jimbo was (understandably) busy with Wikimania.  I expect things will return to the normal level of chaos shortly and this should proceed.  &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:Coren|Coren]]&nbsp;<sup>[[User Talk:Coren|(talk)]]</sup> 17:10, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
-*:<s>Opened any discussions with http://Blekko.com or http://DuckDuckGo.com ?</s> Nevermind, explained&dismissed over at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:The_Earwig#Check_copyvio_on_arbitrary_article.3F |Talk:The Earwig] --[[User:Lexein|Lexein]] ([[User talk:Lexein|talk]]) 13:38, 20 August 2011 (UTC)
-*::I mean, I ''suppose'' they could be useful if we were really forced to, but Google is still the best engine for this by far, and the above messages indicate that it's still possible. I'm keeping my eyes peeled for any updates, as [[User:EarwigBot|EarwigBot]]'s copyvio task has been down because of this, including the web interface. Coren, thank you for your diligence in getting this solved. &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:The Earwig|<span style="color:#080;">The&nbsp;</span><span style="color:#040;">Earwig</span>]]&nbsp;[[User talk:The Earwig|<span style="color:black"><sup>(talk)</sup></span>]] 01:36, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

-Ireland naming? ARRRRRRRRGGGGH! *runs screaming* --[[User talk:SarekOfVulcan|<span class="gfSarekSig">SarekOfVulcan (talk)</span>]] 16:29, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
-:This was by no means a painless case, but the enforced truce it created ''did'' manage to stabilize the area and reduce the disputes around the naming to a toreable background din (as opposed to the catastrophic shouting match that sent anyone sane running away in horror).  &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:Coren|Coren]]&nbsp;<sup>[[User Talk:Coren|(talk)]]</sup> 17:54, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
