Thank you and a belated welcome
[edit]Hi Bamyers99, you have popped up in my watchlist over the last few days and I noticed that you never received a formal welcome message despite that you have made several hundreds edits since May 2010. So here it is: welcome to Wikipedia ;) Since you don't seems to need a newbie friendly welcome message I will instead thank you for adding all those infoboxes and coordinates etc., thanks! Cheers, jonkerz♠ 00:39, 24 September 2011 (UTC)
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
[edit]Many thanks for your edits on the ISO 3166-2 articles based on the latest update. Chanheigeorge (talk) 20:40, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
- Yes I was also a bit puzzled by the ISO 3166-2 codes of Monaco. The Statoids site lists a source but I cannot find the file or other useful sources so far. I will take a look more after the new year. BTW, if you have any ideas on how to improve the ISO 3166-2 articles (e.g. the current standardized format), please suggest so and your help would be much appreciated.

Boo yankee
[edit]Can you please explain the "boo yankee" addition to this template: Template:Infobox hiking trail? Following your edits to the template, all articles that use this template now have the addition of the words "boo yankee" to the lead sentence of the article. Assuming good faith here, I'm believing that this was unintentional. To that end, could you please reverse your edit to this template? Thanks. Best regards, Cind.amuse (Cindy) 23:42, 2 February 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for the heads up on the problem with the Template:Infobox hiking trail. It was actually vandalism to the Template:!) that caused this. In the future, please do a version compare and also look at the current version of a template before reaching the conclusion that a revert is needed. --Bamyers99 (talk) 00:43, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

Your edit to Location map+
[edit]I don't think your edit to {{Location map+}} was necessary. Did you check the testcases before your edit? I used markup that has been used in {{Location map+}} and has held up for some time. The pipe template is unnecessary in my opinion because the pipes are inside [[File:...]] and are not an element in a table. –droll [chat] 07:35, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
Tropical plants
[edit]Hello, How are you? I need your help. I thank you your help in the articles and I hope you help me again in future. I ask you: Can you find more people willing writing in tropical trees, genera and families? I ask you if you could enlarge some articles making better known this group of trees in Wikipedia, adding links to genera and families and writing information and asking people if they are interested in writing about topics as tropical trees articles, tropical forest articles or botanical or biodiversity articles. Do you know Wikipedia forums that could be interested about these type of articles? They are welcome too. I thank you very much.
I am from Spain and my mother language is not English language. Many country side areas, and Natural areas and Living beings are in Countries where population cannot collaborate with Wikipedia, but their Natural World and its highly economically valuable species are very important too in the human knowledge and developtment of the mankind. People should have information because these matters are important, not just a curiosity only. This unknow world is from Poles to ecuator, in unoccupied oceanic areas closely to Europe, in Deserts as Sahara, or whatever. But to me the main aim is to gather the abundant information disperse about living communities and living beings that have existed for millions of years because they are disappearing and in 20 years they will are not longer exist.

July 2012 Study of authors of health-related Wikipedia pages
[edit]Dear Author/Bamyers99
My name is Nuša Farič and I am a Health Psychology MSc student at the University College London (UCL). I am currently running a quantitative study entitled Who edits health-related Wikipedia pages and why? I am interested in the editorial experience of people who edit health-related Wikipedia pages. I am interested to learn more about the authors of health-related pages on Wikipedia and what motivations they have for doing so. I am currently contacting the authors of randomly selected articles and I noticed that someone at this address edited an article on Rheumatic Fever. I would like to ask you a few questions about you and your experience of editing the above mentioned article and or other health-related articles. If you would like more information about the project, please visit my user page (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Hydra_Rain) and if interested, please reply via my talk page or e-mail me on nusa.faric.11@ucl.ac.uk. Also, others interested in the study may contact me! If I do not hear back from you I will not contact this account again. Thank you very much in advance. Hydra Rain (talk) 13:15, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

Philately
[edit]Great work. I did not really know what I was doing though I seem to recall setting up the Ireland project report but don't remember setting up any rules. Thanks. ww2censor (talk) 22:19, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
- The rules are divided into 3 sections: Stub templates, Global word searches, and Categories. The global word searches can generate false positives (Alan M. Wachman#Articles) and they can be converted to category searches to prevent that. The reason I made them global is to catch pages that aren't stubbed or categorized. The current bot operator (Tedder) is retiring. I have written a bot to take over that is waiting for approval. I am currently manually updating a few projects (including Philately) on Tuesdays and Fridays. --Bamyers99 (talk) 23:09, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
- I noticed your potential replacement. Is there a way of steering a middle ground for such false positives? Or can a hatnote of some sort be added to the report section to warn that all items may not apply to the project and should be manually checked for assessment? Also, perhaps it could be posted to a separate page and transclude that onto the main project page in a collapsed form. Thanks in advance. ww2censor (talk) 23:25, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
- The point value can be set to 5 for those three words. That way a match won't get reported unless a) the word is in the lead which doubles the point value, or b) more than one of the three words is found. The hatnote is a good idea. I am not sure what you mean by "perhaps it could be posted to a separate page". Are you talking about the false positives? --Bamyers99 (talk) 23:42, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for the fast response.
No I was suggesting to post the whole report to a separate page and then transclude that to the main project page, maybe in collapsed form so it does not take up a lot of room but those interested can open it up as they wish.ww2censor (talk) 23:54, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

Hello, not even sure if your bot is up and running yet. I just happened to start trying to add a new sub to User:AlexNewArtBot only to see that it was replaced by User:TedderBot, which is now or soon to be replaced by User:InceptionBot? Anyway, thanks for the work you've already done, and i'm wondering if you might point me to documentation on adding Wikipedia:WikiProject Mixed martial arts to the bot, or possibly guide me through it? Thanks in advance! Kevlar (talk) 04:35, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
- I have created some MMA rules and added it to the bot. The documentation is at AlexNewArtBot. I did a trial run to seed the results with some articles. You can add {{User:AlexNewArtBot/MMASearchResult}} to the MMA WikiProject page to display the results. InceptionBot just started running a couple of days ago. --Bamyers99 (talk) 16:59, 13 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your work on User:InceptionBot updating the new article lists. The revised formatting for the lists looks great (e.g. FoodDrinkSearchResult and EnvironmentSearchResult), and the daily updating is a great new feature. I look forward to the prospect of utilizing this exceptional feature in additional WikiProjects. Northamerica1000(talk) 05:23, 17 November 2013 (UTC) |
Thanks
[edit]Thank you for cleaning up the regexes on the ant page. Maybe these also need that extra slash? I do not know, I'm usually the "some people" in "Some people, when confronted with a problem, think 'I know, I'll use regular expressions.' Now they have two problems." :) jonkerz ♠talk 16:56, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
- Now I see what you were trying to do. A \ is always followed by another character. The combination of the two has a special meaning. \W means word boundary. You left out the W on the Ants regexes. The \W is only needed if there is a possibility that an unrelated category will also match the regex. Example: /Category:[^\]]*ants\W/ would match Category:Pants and Category:Ants, /Category:[^\]]*\Wants\W/ will not match Category:Pants. --Bamyers99 (talk) 17:12, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
- Ohh, now I see it too, *facepalm*. I copied the line "22 /Category:[^\]]*\Walucitidae\W/" thinking Walucitidae was the name of a moth family :) jonkerz ♠talk 17:34, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
New article search bot
[edit]I keep an eye on User:AlexNewArtBot/DnDSearchResult, and I was wondering if it was possible to have a bot searching for new articles for Wikipedia:WikiProject Role-playing games. Do you know how to go about constructing one?
Also, I noticed that InceptionBot is updating the page daily, whereas TedderBot only updated it when it found new articles. BOZ (talk) 18:11, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
- I have created a set of rules for Role-playing games. The first rule section is for stubs, the next is for keywords and the last is for categories. I ran it manually for the last 5 days with these results. You can add the results to the Role-playing WikiProject by following these instructions and substituting RPGames for Russia. RE: Daily updates, I have changed the bot to only update the results page if it has added or removed results. --Bamyers99 (talk) 22:20, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
- Hah, most of those pages were redirects created by me (most of which I will expand into articles over the next few weeks)... I will probably want to add more search terms to the bot - I will play around with that sometime soon. Thanks! :) BOZ (talk) 23:27, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
- One thing I noticed - for the D&D search - was that AlexNewArtBot kept an archive very well, and TedderBot kept an archive briefly and somewhat inconsistently. Will InceptionBot keep an archive of pages it has found? BOZ (talk) 00:45, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
- InceptionBot does not keep a separate archive. The bot update history for the SearchResult page is an archive. Viewing every 14th history item will yield the same results as an archive page. I will add a note to the AlexNewArtBot documentation page. --Bamyers99 (talk) 01:04, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
Ireland project
[edit]Is it possible to change the new article bot rules for us? I have no clue how to format the rules to avoid some false positives I've seen or thought of. Can we exclude an author whose name is Ireland (such as in Vataireoids) (probably only possible when in a citation) and also exclude any article mentioning Ireland Island, Bermuda? I also notice that some sports or entertainment event (such as Swing Both Ways Tour) that may be held in Ireland but don't really have any other connection might somehow be excluded. Thanks in advance. I think CIWEC Clinic Travel Medicine Center appeared because Ireland is in hidden text in the full unpopulated {{Infobox hospital}} template. Is it even worth trying to exclude that? ww2censor (talk) 22:05, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
- I have excluded Ireland Island in the rules. For CIWEC Clinic Travel Medicine Center type matches, I have changed the bot to ignore commented out (hidden) text. For people named Ireland and events that occur in Ireland, it would be hard to detect all of the possibilities. An option would be to stop searching for the text Ireland everywhere in an article and only look for it inside templates and categories. --Bamyers99 (talk) 02:05, 27 November 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for the quick reply. I know it is virtually impossible to exclude all false positives but I'll think about your suggestion but think that might exclude many real articles we want to catch. Anyway thanks you for making the rule changes. Cheers ww2censor (talk) 11:08, 27 November 2013 (UTC)

A modest proposal
[edit]You know what I think would be great? If there could be a way that users could subscribe to certain new article bot feeds (as many as they like) and get a notification of some sort when the bot has done a new search, so we don't have to keep checking to see. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 13:02, 29 November 2013 (UTC)
- You can add the "Search result" page(s) to your watchlist. The "Search result" pages can be found here. --Bamyers99 (talk) 19:32, 29 November 2013 (UTC)
- I didn't realize that would work, thanks, Shawn in Montreal (talk) 22:25, 30 November 2013 (UTC)
Strange omission from InceptionBot results
[edit]Hi. First of all, a belated thanks for your work on InceptionBot. I have a question though. I've been monitoring the Thailand feed, and the article 2013 Thai protests is curiously missing from the results. The absence of this article in particular doesn't really matter, but I'm wondering what happened there. The article content should have easily triggered the rules for Thailand. Could the fact that the article was renamed some sixteen hours after its creation have something to do with it? --Paul_012 (talk) 09:35, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for reporting the issue. The page rename (move) caused the bot to only see the redirect link which didn't score high enough to report it. I have modified the bot to track page moves so that this shouldn't happen any more. --Bamyers99 (talk) 23:22, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
InceptionBot and category links
[edit]On User:AlexNewArtBot/MilitarySearchResult, InceptionBot is adding links to categories without prefixing them with a :
For example [[Category:Municipal coats of arms in Romania]] rather than [[:Category:Municipal coats of arms in Romania]]
So the page is being added to the category rather than showing the link. Could this be fixed? -- WOSlinker (talk) 23:02, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
- Sorry about that. I have fixed the bot. When there are more than 600 new pages, the bot generates links itself instead of using a template to generate the links because there is a limit to how many template calls can be made on a page. --Bamyers99 (talk) 00:19, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
User:AlexNewArtBot/Womenartists
[edit]Hi,
You were so kind to set up rules for User:AlexNewArtBot/Womenartists and that's much appreciated! There were a couple of follow-up questions, one of which I solved myself about why someone wasn't picked up in the search, but there are two things I hope you could help me with:
- I don't see it in the search results now, but there had been a category that was created that appeared in the list. Is there any way to prevent that, or maybe you've already tweaked that?
- Will the rules pick up if someone creates a new article from a redirect?
Thanks again!--CaroleHenson (talk) 00:11, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
- 1. I have configured it to not display new Categories/Templates on the Women artists Wikiproject page. They will still be visible when viewing User:AlexNewArtBot/WomenartistsSearchResult directly.
- 2. Do you mean when a redirect page is overwritten with an article? No it will not find these. The wikipedia software does not have a way to identify these without looking at every edit on every artice made during the past day. There are too many edits in a day to do that. The wikipedia software does identify new pages, so those can be retrieved without too much processing overhead. --Bamyers99 (talk) 02:27, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

"Bad" list
[edit]Is the list created by User:AlexNewArtBot/Bad still being used for good purpose? It appears to me that it generates a lot of false positives.
I happened upon User:AlexNewArtBot/Bad because a new article of mine (South Guthrie, Tennessee) appeared on the list. I believe that there is a very legitimate reason for that article to have used the word that got it added to the bad list. Crime in Tuvalu and The Sugarplastic make the list because the string "idiot" appears on those pages for innocent reasons.
I also see that Iai Joshi Women's Academy is on the bad list because it refers to a missionary with the middle name of "Colbert" -- why in the world is Wikipedia treating all uses of that name as bad articles requiring some sort of review?
Meanwhile, this filter is not detecting a host of problems that truly make an article bad... Just wondering what the status of this filter is. --Orlady (talk) 18:16, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for the feedback. There is no 'official' status. The bot and search rules are maintained by volunteers. Reviewing the results is also done by volunteers. There is no guarantee that anyone is looking at the results. Several users have a link to the BadSearchResult page. I don't know why Colbert is on the list. Maybe it's a naughty word in some language. Anyone can change the search rules or ask me to change them.
- Articles are removed from the list after 14 days, so it won't leave a permanent blot on an articles 'What links here'. --Bamyers99 (talk) 20:26, 31 March 2014 (UTC)

Running AlexNewArtBot/InceptionBot for existing articles on demand
[edit]Hello, I am wondering if it possible to run the AlexNewArtBot/InceptionBot for all existing articles (not just new articles), on demand. For example, I am hoping to find all articles that match these rules: User:AlexNewArtBot/Romania. The purpose of this exercise is to find all articles that could potentially be tagged with {{WikiProject Romania}}. Thanks! --Codrin.B (talk) 08:28, 19 June 2014 (UTC)
- @Codrinb: Not practical. However, I do have a bot that I run a couple of times a year for some WikiProjects that I work on that does something similar. It looks for articles in categories that contain certain words that are not tagged with a particular WikiProject. I ran it for Romania, the results are here. --Bamyers99 (talk) 18:46, 19 June 2014 (UTC)

[edit]Thanks - I've added the link to Wikipedia:WikiProject Architecture/Historic houses task force. I think more will appear as more articles are tagged and that we make a start on cleaning them up.— Rod talk 20:47, 1 July 2014 (UTC)
Cleanup listing not linking to articles with apostrophes in title
[edit]Hi, I've recently started working my way through the cleanup listing for WP Somerset, which has grown with the inclusion of the CS1 errors. I tend to click on the article title to go & fix it up and I noticed a few cases where the title doesn'tlink to the article (often to a dab page). It seems to be where there is an apostrophe in the title ( eg Read's Cavern, Pierre's Pot, Ponter's Ball Dyke). I wonder if it could be fixed? Its not a major problem and the lists are still really useful - but this does add a few clicks for me.— Rod talk 19:50, 4 July 2014 (UTC)
- @Rodw: Thanks for the bug report. It is fixed for the next run on Tuesday July 8. --Bamyers99 (talk) 18:27, 5 July 2014 (UTC)
Errors in cleanup list links
[edit]Hi there, Firstly, thanks for the new and improved cleanup bot lists. I really like the "new" and "resolved" sections. But this week's list has errors in all of the links. All of the spaces have been replaced by "+", not by "_". See [1]. Regards, The-Pope (talk) 16:30, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

[edit]Hi. I do not understand the exact reason that you withdraw your request. -- Magioladitis (talk) 06:57, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
- @Magioladitis: Simply ran out of time to do a full bot run generating wiki pages and manually update 100's of toolserver external links before June 30 to assure a seamless transition of cleanup listings from toolserver to labs. The bot has been generating html pages for several weeks that are hosted on labs and can be used for the external links. --Bamyers99 (talk) 17:51, 30 June 2014 (UTC)

User:AlexNewArtBot/NZ on commons?
[edit]I would like a report like User:AlexNewArtBot/NZ, but on commons rather than en.wiki. Even better would we a report that covered both (better because it would encourage editors to be cross-project, to reuse commons images, etc). Any hints on where I might find one? Stuartyeates (talk) 08:10, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
- @Stuartyeates: I did some testing to see if this is feasible. commons adds 50,000+ new files a day vs about 3,000 new articles a day for en.wiki. The processing time (> 24 hours to do all projects) was to much for me to attempt something like this. --Bamyers99 (talk) 00:20, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

Nomination for deletion of Template:Alcohol laws in the United States
[edit]Template:Alcohol laws in the United States has been nominated for deletion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the template's entry on the Templates for discussion page. While I like the idea of this template, I don't think it serves much of a navigational purpose when most of the links here direct to different parts of the same article. In clicking through about 15 states, Texas is the only one I could find with its own article. As the author of this template, I thought you would want to know about this nomination. --CrunchySkies (talk) 04:31, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
After closer examination (caused by going through and redirecting each state to the proper section, after sections had been renamed in the core article), I believe I have made a mistake and am now withdrawing my nomination. Turns out 19 states have their own articles: Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, West Virginia, Wisconsin. This would make the template quite useful. The first bunch of the alphabet don't have their own articles, and that's where I was clicking around initially, which mislead me to think that the majority didn't... I guess I should've checked everything. Sorry for the trouble. Anyway, carry on. :) --CrunchySkies (talk) 05:31, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
Cape Bojeador
[edit]Hello,
The bot placed Cape Bojeador into the FinlandSearchResult page. Try as I might, I can't see how it could possibly be related to Finland. Can you advise? JIP | Talk 07:40, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
- @JIP: It matched because the Finland rules look for lang-fi which also matches lang-fil. I updated the Finland rules to ignore lang-fil. --Bamyers99 (talk) 13:49, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
New articles bot
[edit]Hello! I'm wondering why the information from User:AlexNewArtBot/CanadaSearchResult isn't being transcluded on Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada/New articles. I can't seem to figure it out. Got any ideas? - SweetNightmares 17:59, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
- @SweetNightmares: The 'New articles' page after transclusion is too big (> 2 Meg). It is in the hidden Category:Pages where template include size is exceeded. I have modified InceptionBot to decrease the size of the transcluded SearchResult page. The change will take effect for the August 21 bot run. --Bamyers99 (talk) 19:03, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
Hi again Bamyers99! I'd be very happy if you could help me with refining InceptionBot's ants rule set. As you can see in the match log, a lot of plant genera match the pattern /Category:[^\]]*Ant genera\W/
. I think it could be fixed by adding , 22 /Category:[^\]]*Plant genera\W/
to the same line? jonkerz ♠talk 21:18, 29 August 2014 (UTC)
- @Jonkerz: You were close, the 22 score is not repeated. I updated the rule. Here is a test. --Bamyers99 (talk) 23:32, 29 August 2014 (UTC)

Draft namespace messing up the User:AlexNewArtBot/PolandSearchResult
[edit]The problem is that the bot reports drafts as soon as they are created, when they are usually not ready for review. But it doesn't report them when they are moved to the mainspace, when they should be reviewed. Could we have the draft namespace either excluded from the results, or listed separately, and the "moved from draft namespace" entries included instead? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 07:40, 23 September 2014 (UTC)

Wikifying Cleanup Listings
[edit]Hi Bamyers. Thanks for you help in running a bot to generate WikiProject listings. I was wondering: is there a way to convert the html listings into wikified listings? I noticed this was previously done at User:CleanupWorklistBot/lists/Athletics and would like to update that page with the most recent info. Thanks! SFB 21:04, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
- @Sillyfolkboy: That was a trial run when the bot was up for approval. I withdrew the request for approval due to timing issues when toolserver was shutdown. I could have the bot create a wikified version of the 'By category' page, but you would have to manually copy it into the wiki page. --Bamyers99 (talk) 22:41, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
- My principal idea for wikifying it would be to annotate the listings and use the "what links" function, so creating the page myself isn't a problem at all. Would this be a relatively trivial modification of the code, or is it going to be quite a task to add this option onto the outputs? If it's not a quick fix, then probably easier to leave it as this is more of a "nice to have" feature than a crucial one. Good work by the way! SFB 01:08, 4 October 2014 (UTC)
- @Sillyfolkboy: I decided to go a different route. Since the bot already creates a CSV file, I decided to write a web page that converts CSV data to a wikitable. You can give it a try at Athletics CSV. --Bamyers99 (talk) 15:58, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Bot interpreting "finns" as "Finns"
[edit]Your bot recently listed three articles about Swedish music albums in the FinlandSearchResult page:

Bot interpreting Indian language words as Finnish names
[edit]Your bot matched List of songs recorded by Asha Bhosle as being related to Finland, while it has nothing whatsoever to do with Finland. The reason is apparently that the song names contain the words "kari", "saari" and "leena". Now the capitalised versions "Kari", "Saari" and "Leena" are indeed Finnish names, the first being a male first name, the second a surname, and the third a female first name. But this is pure coincidence, the Indian language words (I don't even know what they mean in Indian) have no relation to those names. Now "kari" and "saari" are also nouns ("kari" means a hazardous rock in the middle of a waterway, while "saari" means an island), but "leena" with a small initial doesn't mean anything, it's just "Leena" that's a name. Could it be possible to exclude "leena" with a small initial from the word list and only use "Leena"? JIP | Talk 18:45, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
- @JIP: I have changed the rule to only match Leena with an uppercase L. --Bamyers99 (talk) 20:21, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
CleanupWorklistBot suggestion
[edit]Is there any way the CleanupWorklistBot could generate "Pages using duplicate arguments in template calls" for projects? I've been able to find these in a limited way using AWB (limited because of 25,000 page list limit in List comparer), but if your tool could automatically do it, it would be very useful. A lot of these duplicate arguments are not merely aesthetic issues -- they reveal true cleanup work where hidden content is restored if fixed. Thank you for your consideration. Stevie is the man! Talk • Work 11:15, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
- @Stevietheman: I have added the category. It will be in Tuesday the 27ths run.--Bamyers99 (talk) 16:45, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
- Great, thank you! I went ahead and manually generated a list for my project and made corrections, but this will be great for future issues and of course all the other projects who will now get these lists. Stevie is the man! Talk • Work 17:22, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
Partly erroneous Finland search result match
[edit]Your bot matched Houston Baptist Huskies women's basketball as being related to Finland. Now, it is apparently true that one of the players went to school in Mäkelänrinne, Helsinki, Finland, so that part is correct, but the bot also matched the coach Donna Finnie's name. I'm quite sure that despite her surname beginning with "Finn-", she doesn't have anything to do with Finland. Could the rules be made more specific? JIP | Talk 07:15, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
- Removed finn search. --Bamyers99 (talk) 01:54, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
Kenji Ekuan
[edit]Your bot recently added Kenji Ekuan to the FinlandSearchResult page. I cannot find anything in the article related to Finland. The page User:InceptionBot/NewPageSearch/Finland/log says it mentions Finland and Helsinki, but I can't find any mentions of them in the article. What is going on here? JIP | Talk 07:35, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
- @JIP: The bot had an old copy of the article from January 20, 2015 before the article was deleted for copyvio. The original article mentioned Finland because the guy had an honorary degree from there. I have fixed the problem. Thanks for reporting this. --Bamyers99 (talk) 15:32, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of User:DataflowBot/output/Top 20 enwiki articles by edits and editors in past 7 days (id-1)
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on User:DataflowBot/output/Top 20 enwiki articles by edits and editors in past 7 days (id-1) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section U3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it contains a gallery in the userspace which consists chiefly of fair use or non-free images. For legal reasons, we cannot allow non-free and copyrighted images to be used on user pages, and user pages containing galleries of such images may be eligible for speedy deletion.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Non-free content is not prohibited in the Wikipedia and Wikipedia talk namespaces. My opinion is that the WP:NFCC are met while working on a feature for those namespaces.
