Notice to vandalizing halfwits, linkspammers, and people who don't read WP:NOT

Before you sit down and construct a series of vandalizations to this page, or whine about the article I put a CSD tag on, or my AfD vote, you should be informed that your world orbits a ball of fire. This ball of deadly heat is paradoxically far enough away that it actually provides some level of benefit to those who spend a measured amount of time in front of it. While you should not in any way stare at it, a respectful glance in its direction will show you that it is warm and in some ways healthy.

Accompanying the ball of fire is a collection of variant photosensitive lifeforms and constantly recycled breathing material, suitable for your use at any time you so please, and containing life-giving elements. As an added bonus, most of these materials are available to you entirely for free and 24 hours a day.

We encourage you to cease vandalizing or whining on this page and get to know the magic ball of fire.

Credit to User:Elaragirl for the above

Disclaimer: The above is intended as a humorous way to emphasize a point. If you are not humorous, feel free to continue to be a halfwit or linkspammer, or both if you prefer. You may also ignore the fiery ball, if you so please, however I warn you that without it, you would never have been permitted to enjoy linkspamming or halfwittedness or ignorance of WP:NOT.

WikiCast: Pull Stream...

Owing to some concerns raised in #Wikipedia, suggest you check on what the (C) situation re the stream would be again, given the recent changes to royalty arrangments.

At the moment I am seriously considering if the stream can exist at all. ShakespeareFan00 16:52, 2 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New AccReqBot task?

AccReqBot is very helpful at WP:ACC, but there's another task that's being discussed on the talk page that might be appropriate for a bot. We're using the {{ACC}} template to tag the status of a request in machine-readable form; if a request has been tagged with {{ACC}} for 3 days, and its first parameter is neither 's' nor 'similar', could the bot remove the request as rejected? (It wouldn't have to be 3 days exactly, just run on a typical archivebot schedule, removing rather than archiving the requests.) At the moment, rejected requests just build up. Thanks! --ais523 12:27, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Oh, and any sections tagged {{ACC|c}} should be archived as successful as soon as the bot notices (it's used to manually tag created accounts that the bot misses). --ais523 12:41, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
I'll have a look, shouldn't be too hard. ST47Talk 18:52, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Working on this now. ST47Talk 13:53, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can you put me in check page

Comments on Shadow1's page...

Yes. That relates to the Channel contact which for most purposes is what's needed. However, should an IRC channel need to be dropped, for example to name change, that requires the original 'registration' password NOT the channel contact AFIAK ShakespeareFan00 07:58, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AccReqBot

Any chance of running another copy of the bot? Extranet (Talk | Contribs) 09:13, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand - would you like a copy? ST47Talk 11:23, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No, I see the need for a second copy of the bot to be run, so is it possible to run a redundant copy of it (e.g. AccReqBot2)? Or, is it a one bot only thing? Extranet talk 11:27, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
We can do that. I'll put in for a BRFA. ST47Talk 11:28, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oh ok, thats great. Will it require a m:Toolserver account or is it run manually? Could you give a few more specs on it? I'm off to bed now, will check back in morning. Extranet talk 11:33, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
We can use my toolserv account for both. ST47Talk 11:36, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
And then perhaps use mine when it's activated? Extranet talk 12:08, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Sure! ST47Talk 13:53, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
There's some more comments at the BRFA. Could you please look over them? Cheers. Extranet talk 20:58, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oops, didn't notice. Just a moment. ST47Talk 21:00, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It would be impossible to run it from my computer as I have bandwidth issues with my ISP, thats why I rather run it on the m:Toolserver. Tell me more information on what I can do. And, maybe you can give the toolserver request a bit of a bump? Extranet talk 21:31, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Well, we can put it on toolserv, we'd just be subject to toolserver downtime. I thought the point of running another copy was to avoid that. ST47Talk 21:35, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, alright. It's just that you said earlier that we could use the toolserver. As you can already see, there is three HBC AIV helperbots running and I really thought there was the need for two AccReqBots because if say you have to update yours, mine would keep running the tasks, and so on. I can, on some circumstances run the bot from my spare Windows 98 computer, but as I said, the bandwidth issues with my current ISP really puts that off. If you don't really think there is a point of running it anymore, I will just have to resist not running a bot on Wikipedia. I'm sorry I have put all this on you at one time, but I just enjoy running and maintaining bots, while also contributing myself. Many thanks, Extranet talk 21:43, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Have you taken a look at using AWB in bot mode to fulfill some requests listed at WP:BOTREQ? Martinp23 21:49, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think I have enough mainspace edits to be accepeted on the CheckList, but I have applied for AWB. Extranet talk 22:36, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Email alert

You have mail :) Martinp23 10:42, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Again - Martinp23 16:55, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Noted, read, acted. ST47Talk 18:35, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks :) - I appreciate it. Martinp23 18:45, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit summary ;) thanks for brightening up my day! Good luck with the RfA, by the looks of it you'll soon be joining me cleaning up the Vandals!

Kind regards,
Anthony 00:11, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can I possibly insert my co-nomination? You really deserve it as you are kind and loyal to the whole entire Wikipedia community. Extranet talk 02:02, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I declined that well over a month ago :( ST47Talk 02:06, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
We could always start it up again eh? Only if you want to :) Extranet talk 02:09, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
