Bot broken?

I see that lowercase sigmabot has not archieved my talkpage for 2 days so I looked at the bots contributions and it has not archieved anything since 23 May 2015. Is it broken? Qed237 (talk) 11:15, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

seems to be working now. Qed237 (talk) 16:09, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

@Qed237: You were right, someone accidentally turned off the bot when adding a protection template to the shutoff page. See here. Best, Tony Tan · talk 19:12, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

Mattress performance

Could someone who knows about these issues check the archiving templates on Talk:Mattress Performance (Carry That Weight)? There has been something odd about it for a while, either the bot not archiving or one-touch archiver not working (it says there is no counter, but there is). I changed it to seven days yesterday and there are several threads that old, but no bot appearance yet. Sarah (SV) ^(talk) 19:24, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

Great so far.

Great so far. How can I invoke the archiving bot?-DePiep (talk) 01:44, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) As per User:Lowercase sigmabot III#Usage, instructions are at User:MiszaBot/Archive HowTo. --Redrose64 (talk) 08:00, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Not working on Talk:Caitlyn Jenner

Bot does not seem to be archiving Talk:Caitlyn Jenner. Archive intervals were reduced a day or two ago, yet old threads have not been archived. Am I just jumping the gun, or is something wrong? Please use {{re}} to reply to me. EvergreenFir (talk) Please {{re}} 04:03, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

Nevermind. Forgot to update the target after the page move. EvergreenFir (talk) Please {{re}} 04:06, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

User talkpages not archieving

Hi, I was approached by an editor that asked me why the bot is not working on his talkpage and I realised it had not archived at my talkpage either for the last couple of days. So I looked at the bots contributions and it has archived only one talkpage since 5 June (it was on 7 June). Is there something wrong with the bot? Qed237 (talk) 11:27, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

Same here, mine was lasted archived on 5 June. Joseph2302 (talk) 23:03, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

Glad it's not just me then! In the meantime, talk pages can be archived manually by using One Click Archiver.--5 albert square (talk) 01:08, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

Threads ending with unsigned template not archived

I didn't see anything on User:MiszaBot/Archive HowTo. It seems if treads end with the unsigned template, not signed at all, or {{tb}} which are not signed by a bot, are not archived. Examples on my talk page Any fixes for this? Thanks for all your hard work and the extremely useful Lowercase sigmabot III. Cheers Ping me with {{u|Jim1138}} and sign "~~~~" or message me on my talk page. 20:45, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @Jim1138: Until the bot starts archiving all user talk pages again (see previous section), I don't think there's anything specifically wrong with the threads on your talk page. But it is known that the left-to-right mark anywhere in a timestamp can cause the bot to skip the thread; you could look for those. --Redrose64 (talk) 21:28, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

User:Lowercase sigmabot III will (honestly) stop working unless you change the code (per WP:VPT#Impending bot armageddon)

Not sure if you're aware, but there will be a breaking change made to MediaWiki that could cause your archival bot (which archives my talk page) to stop working. See WP:VPT#Impending bot armageddon. Gparyani (talk) 04:39, 9 June 2015 (UTC)

User:B-bot/Event log not being archived

Hi Σ, User:B-bot/Event log has not been archived since June 6. Is there something I need to update for it to start being archived again? Thanks, --B (talk) 13:05, 9 June 2015 (UTC)

Resolved

 – I see that it was archived this evening. Thanks. --B (talk) 01:38, 10 June 2015 (UTC)

Mattress Performance

Hi, Talk:Mattress Performance (Carry That Weight) hasn't been archived since 30 May, though several threads are old enough. Can someone check that the template has been filled in properly? Sarah (SV) ^(talk) 04:10, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

(talk page stalker)Am looking at the code & editing history now, trying to see what, if anything, changed on 30 May to break the syntax. Shearonink (talk) 14:04, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

I'm having similar issues on my talk page. No archiving since June 5^th. FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 14:48, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

Heh, oh well, all the things I thought might be broken on that page probably weren't... hope I didn't break anything there. Shearonink (talk) 15:02, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

Looks like I'm not the only one, judging by the previous messages above... FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 13:48, 12 June 2015 (UTC)

The bot just now archived almost 30K earlier today (of the Mattress Performance talkpage). Not sure if my fixes did the trick or if the bot kicked it into gear itself, but anyway, it's working. Shearonink (talk) 13:52, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

Not working

Please check Talk:Meghan Trainor, the bot appears to not be working and the page has gotten really long, making it such a chore to take part in the on-going WP:BRD. Thanks. - Lips ^{are movin} 06:50, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
