Trouble with request

I requested SuggestBot to suggest me articles yesterday by adding {{User:SuggestBot/suggest}} on my talk page but it hasn't suggested me any yet. GoldenBootWizard276 (talk) 18:03, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

I'm having the same issue. I used the automated feature though. ~ JackTheSecond (talk) 09:55, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
@JackTheSecond: what is that? GoldenBootWizard276 (talk) 18:06, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
Oh, well, 'automated' is perhaps overstating it a little. The page Wikipedia:Teahouse/Suggestions lets you 'create' the post on your talk page through a neat little interface. JackTheSecond (talk) 18:49, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for reporting this @JackTheSecond and @GoldenBootWizard276! I’ve restarted the bot and it looks like both of you got a set of suggestions now. The bot crashed again shortly afterwards, so I’ll keep digging to figure out where it’s broken. Thanks again for reporting it and using SuggestBot! Cheers, Nettrom (talk) 20:10, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
Update SuggestBot has finally suggested some articles for me to edit. GoldenBootWizard276 (talk) 20:00, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Idea - add to SuggestBot results Display

Greetings, Today I saw SuggestBot results on another user's Talk, so I did one for myself here. After seeing the results display, 1) I added the Date to section title. 2) Added the Requested at Wikipedia:Teahouse/Suggestions line, with link. 3) Added the two WPs that I had requested. Going forward it would be helpful, IMO, if the bot can provide these elements of the request back onto the display. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 15:09, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Not working?

I tried yesterday and I’ve still received no suggestions. Zanahary (talk) 15:48, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

@Zanahary: Thanks for reporting this, the bot was indeed not working and I’ve restarted it. I'll also keep an extra eye on it to see if it goes down again and investigate further if it does. Cheers, Nettrom (talk) 15:31, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Bot down…again

Used the template 5 days ago, modified it yesterday, still no response. Maybe it's time to look into what's causing it? mwwv converseedits 18:42, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Oh darn! Thanks for pinging me about this, @Mwwv! In this case the problem was me. The Cloud Services admins announced that they’d reboot the VMs, and I forgot to check up on the bot’s VM to make sure everything was running again after the reboot. Got things moving again now, sorry about that! Cheers, Nettrom (talk) 14:27, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

Added suggest bot to talk page but its not working

I have tried to add the code in the source but it has not worked, What else should I try to do? CharlieRidesRollerCoasters (talk) 18:12, 21 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi! You did the right thing, as far as I could tell, but the bot had crashed. Once I restarted it, it looks like it stopped by with some suggestions a few minutes later. Thanks for reporting this, I had a hunch it wasn't working and your notice helped confirm that. Cheers, Nettrom (talk) 20:09, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
