Can't find recently archived thread

Hello Misza13. Recently MiszaBot did this archive related edit at Talk:Gun laws in the United States (by state). As indicated by the edit summary, the thread should have been moved to Talk:Gun laws in the United States (by state)/Archive 1, but, I don't see it there. Let me know what you think. Thanks. — Mudwater (Talk) 11:44, 7 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed, see change history. --Kslotte (talk) 12:29, 7 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sun's surface is not a liquid

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_rotation

There it says Sun liquid.

I guess I put that in the wrong link any way. I wanted to put it in Sun spots. Seems a easy way to say it that the bans line up more every 11 years.

I thought some one my edit a little what I put. But I guess it is good to just keep it out. Thank you.

Bot Malfunction?

Can someone explain why talk content was moved by the bot to "Archive 20" which is non-sequential and doesn't display in the archive record? Is this bot reliable? Thanks. JakeInJoisey (talk) 17:22, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The bot does what it's asked to do: [1]. –xenotalk 17:24, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmmm...and does it record just who did the asking? JakeInJoisey (talk) 17:26, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
You can see from the diff linked above that the bot was told to put threads in /Archive 20 by JakeInJoisey (talk · contribs). –xenotalk 17:27, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ah...my fault then. I misconstrurd the purpose of the settings. Thanks. JakeInJoisey (talk) 17:29, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
No problem. –xenotalk 17:31, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

wiadomość na pl.wiki

Zostawiłem wiadomość na pl.wiki. Wydaje się, że tutaj jesteś bardziej aktywny dlatego ponawiam moje pytanie. Chciałbym uruchomić działanie wikinews importer bota. --Verwolff (talk) 15:19, 17 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Bot mistake, or mine?

I had condensed the bot config text, as follows

{{User:MiszaBot/config|archiveheader = {{talkarchivenav}}|maxarchivesize = 20K|counter = 2|minthreadsleft = 4|minthreadstoarchive = 1|algo = old(21d)|archive = User talk:Lexein/Archive %(counter)d}}

Then Miszabot archived to dev/null. Ow. Does it make sense to have more sanity checking of the output path? --Lexein (talk) 17:45, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

User:MiszaBot/Archive FAQ #4 (don't compact the config). –xenotalk 17:47, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry I missed the FAQ. Fair enough, but that makes me sad, and makes me want to fix the config parser. --Lexein (talk) 23:28, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Where is the bot's algorithm

Hi, I'd expect a link to the bot's workings, algorithm, or inner code at least. Not a FAQ? -DePiep (talk) 22:48, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If that's your regular expectation, I'm afraid you're in for a lot of disappointments - not all bot operators publish their bots' code.
Obviously, you didn't mention which bot are you interested in, but I'll assume you mean the archiving bot. A HowTo+FAQ should be good enough for 99% of people who just want their stuff archived and are only interested in setting it up and avoiding common pitfalls. But if you need more, its code has been committed to the pywikipedia core for as long as I can remember. Миша13 09:52, 22 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Another "Is it me or the bot" question

For the most part, the bot is working wonderfully (and thank you for it!). But it sometimes leaves sections an awfully long time, such as User_talk:Fabrictramp#Hot_Topics_in..._article (yes, I know I just replied to it today, but the original post was up there for 26 days), and the Signpost sections. Do I have a setting wrong causing this? Thanks!--Fabrictramp(public) (talk) 17:55, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, duh, if I actually read the directions, I would have known the answer. Minthreadsleft. Never mind! :)--Fabrictramp(public) (talk) 17:57, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Possibly undesirable bot edit

See here This bot is adding to Talk:George Orwell/Archive 1, and has now made that page 178 kb, which is much too large. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:12, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The configs were set at 250kb, so the bot will fill up until that is reached. But I did set it now for 100kb, so next run will wrap over to "Archive 2". --Kslotte (talk) 07:53, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks I think this is much wiser; 250kb is simply far too big. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 15:25, 23 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:The Judd School

I recently told this bot to start archiving the above talk page, but the first archive isn't showing in the archive box. I have a feeling that its because the first archive is Archive 0, as opposed to Archive 1 (my fault, I think). Is there anyway to change it? Tom (talk) 01:38, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Done —WWoods (talk) 06:05, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
