Duplicate section headers
I notice that ClueBot frequently inserts duplicate section headers on users' talk pages, e.g. January 2009 where there is already a section January 2009. This makes it less obvious how many vandalism warnings have been given to the user during the current month. Would it be possible to update the bot to avoid inserting such duplicate headers?

- Could someone please reply to this, rather than just archiving it without replying? David Biddulph (talk) 11:02, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- Your bot added a 2nd, 3rd and 4th section header January 2009 to User talk:194.83.71.173 where that section header already existed. What is the logic for that? David Biddulph (talk) 19:39, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
- I came here because I noticed this as well, on User talk:65.39.114.66. The problem is not only that it makes it annoying to find how many times they have been warned, but it prevents the user from being warned properly, with escalating severity. -kotra (talk) 20:21, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
- So isn't it about time that it did something better? David Biddulph (talk) 21:56, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks. I see now that ClueBot is not actually designed to escalate the warnings, but that would be extremely helpful if it could be made to. Right now, it is essentially welcoming the user every time, warning them with the first level of warning. Which is probably the best warning to use if it can only do one, but it could give the user the impression that they are being given a clean break after they've been warned for vandalism many times. Essentially what I'm asking is can the bot recognize existing warnings in the current month and formulate its own warning one level higher? As a bot, of course it wouldn't work 100% of the time, but it would be better than it is now I think. -kotra (talk) 21:58, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
False Positive reporting still broken
Can't report a false positive. Can't reach the host 24.40.131.153 at all.

- yeah this is kinda crap. it wont let me report a false positive on my edit 129.2.131.1 (talk) 04:14, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
- Which edit was that, could you link me? Trusilver 04:18, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
- Same problem here. Can't reach the host. this edit (id 551415) by 98.234.95.75 was a false positive (he/she removed a big chunk of spam manually). -- NathanoNL [ usr | msg | log ] 02:16, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
- Same problem here. So frustrating. I can't reach the host either to report false positive (cluebot 552922) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.40.50.60 (talk) 21:50, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
Shutoff Button
Is the button real? And if it is, is it wise to keep it in the open?--Iner22 (talk) 22:54, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
- It requires you to be an admin (it is a shortcut to the "Block User" page). -- Cobi(t|c|b) 21:17, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
images in vandalism warnings
I've been noticing lately, when somebody gets a vandalism warning from ClueBot for an image description page (something under "File:...") the image ends up being inlined within their user talk page. Which can be kind of disruptive. For an example of this, see [1]. It looks like the message refers to the page twice; once as ":File:..." (which prevents the inlining) and once as "File:..." (which doesn't). -- Why Not A Duck 21:48, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
Problematic edits to User:ClueBot III/Indices/User talk:Download
(related to the archive bot, not the anti-vandalism one) Something went arwy here—do you know what the sequence of articles is and why ClueBot is generating it? User:Download was recently renamed, which might have something to do with it; it's quite a fluke, anyway. GracenotesT § 01:49, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
