== Are my requests annoying? ==

Hello,

I do realise that I'm constantly finding more and more stuff to request or bugs to report while I'm looking at the bot and its functions. Maybe it's just because of the way I think (I tend to find all such problems relatively quickly) and because I myself am currently not qualified enough to try doing so myself. But I just wanted to know if these are becoming annoying or problematic from your POV. (If not, I have a couple more requests waiting in standby mode :P)

[[User:TheOriginalSoni|TheOriginalSoni]] ([[User talk:TheOriginalSoni|talk]]) 14:35, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
:{{ping|TheOriginalSoni}} It's fine--I just might not be able to get to them for a day or two. Keep 'em coming! It's also a lot easier if you [https://github.com/theopolisme/theobot/issues/new file them here]--you just need a github account, which is free. Cheers, '''[[User:Theopolisme|<span style="color:#232323;">Theopolisme</span>]] <span style="color:#4F4F4F;">([[User talk:Theopolisme|<span style="color:#4F4F4F;">talk</span>]])</span>''' 14:39, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

:: Filed.
:: Also, I am pasting it here so I don't forget about the github request.

{{cot|The issues}}
These are the issues/feature requests that I have, which are yet not resolved. (I may be repeating what I said in other places, so my apologies for the redundancy)

# A way to notify all wikiprojects that the article is being selected as TAFI, maybe. {{Done}} At BRFA
# A list of plain links for the entire schedule {{Done}}
# Update the schedule archive at [[Wikipedia:Today's_articles_for_improvement/Archives/2013_schedule|Schedule archive]] whenever the current week is removed - {{Done}} and to be verified during bot run
# Optimise and find a way to add a new month at the listings at https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Today%27s_articles_for_improvement/Archives/Unsuccessful_Nominations, https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Today%27s_articles_for_improvement/Archives and https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Today%27s_articles_for_improvement/Archives/Successful_Nominations every month so these pages do not stay outdated.
# Spelling of archived in https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Today%27s_articles_for_improvement/Archives/Unsuccessful_Nominations/May_2013 {{Done}}
# Update the https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Today%27s_articles_for_improvement/Archives/Successful_Nominations page whenever the schedule for a week is prepared (Note - Don't do the archiving while moving to HA, as discussions continue there, and future plans are for To-Do lists).

== Bot to fast review - Category:Non-free images for NFUR review ==

There are over 100,000 items in [[:Category:Non-free images for NFUR review]], and I'm finding a number of them already have a rationale that descends from {{tl|non-free use rationale}} or {{tl|non-free use rationale 2}} etc.

It would be appreciated if you would consider adding a function to Theo's Little Bot which looks for the presence of a relevant
rationale template and appends "|image has rationale=yes" as the last param of the non-free licence tag.

This task was previously being performed by Legobot ( for which a BRFA exists) but an apparent issue with the bot concerned means that it is not currently.

Bot Frequency should be weekly. [[User:Sfan00 IMG|Sfan00 IMG]] ([[User talk:Sfan00 IMG|talk]]) 16:58, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
:{{ping|Sfan00 IMG}} Is [[Wikipedia:Bots/Requests_for_approval/Legobot_22|this]] the task in question? I'll reach out to [[User:Legoktm|Legoktm]] (ping, ping!) and see what his thoughts are first.

== Flow ==

Is there any way to avoid it?

== {{ {{{|safesubst:}}}ROOTPAGENAME}}, we moved your Teahouse host profile ==

Hello '''Theopolisme'''! Thank you for being a host at the Teahouse. However, we haven't heard from you lately, so [[User:HostBot|our bot]] has moved your Host profile from the [[Wikipedia:Teahouse/Host landing|host landing]] page to the [[Wikipedia:Teahouse/Host breakroom|host breakroom]]. No worries; you can always just {{TH check in

Editing any Teahouse-related page will do the same thing for you. If you would prefer not to receive reminders like this, you can unsubscribe [[Wikipedia:Teahouse/Host_lounge/Spam_me_not|here]].

== BLP prod ==

Howdy. In the end it doesn't really matter, but I disagree with part of your comment [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&oldid=558051482#Mistake_while_submitting_PROD here at ANI]. The part I disagree with is "Since the author (as xe is entitled to do) removed the PROD tag...". This is true for normal prods, but not for [[Wikipedia:Proposed_deletion#Sticky_prod|BLP prods]]. For BLP prods, a reliable source must be added before the prod can be removed. If I'm misunderstanding something, I apologize. --[[User:Rockfang|Rockfang]] ([[User talk:Rockfang|talk]]) 01:01, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
:Hey [[User:Rockfang|Rockfang]]--in the [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Donnell_Alexander&action=history article's history], you'll see that the author added sources ''after'' removing the tag...in this case, we AGF; while not the most opportune order, it still all worked out in the long run.

== Bug error ==

Hello,

Please see the HOlding Area Language and Philosophy sections. I am pretty sure those are bugs, and I would want them squashed immediately.

[[User:TheOriginalSoni|TheOriginalSoni]] ([[User talk:TheOriginalSoni|talk]]) 12:14, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
:Yep, you are correct in that [https://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Today%27s_articles_for_improvement/Holding_area&diff=prev&oldid=557100829 something funky] is going on. I will look into when new machine arrives this afternoon.

== Next step ==

If I want you to implement [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technical%29&oldid=558477444#Anonymity_of_WP:Third_opinion_requests Anonymity of Third opinion requests] should I seek evidence of broader support (such as from 3O requesters) at ([[WP:Village_pump_(proposals)]]?
