One of your scripts

In this script, when a user is an admin, it also has a link to their RfA that passed. Would you be able to make it so that it does that for bureaucrats, too? I just thought that would be nice, becuase I think it is interesting to read through people's RfAs and RfBs. Thanks in advance. Oh, by the way, a talkback would be nice, because my watchlist is getting to be a bit too full, and I'd probably miss it. ~~ Hi878 (Come yell at me!) 18:59, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

You seem to not be responding. I'll put this here, just so that the section isn't archived, so that you have time to respond. ~~ Hi878 (Come yell at me!) 05:18, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
...And done! If there are any problems, just write back (and I plan to actually check my talk page now!).  Animum (talk) 02:43, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Hi

I see that you're online. Check my log for today. Those 3 images I reverted had vandalized revisions, so yeah. Delete those please. Thanks! « ₣M₣ » 02:56, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Actually, my revisions have been reverted! Looks like we got a sock-puppet! « ₣M₣ » 02:59, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
I blocked PurelyAtomic, reverted his edits, and protected for 3 days the image that he and Phazonstorm tag-teamed. Hopefully that's enough to keep them away. —Animum (talk) 03:19, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

rfafinder and secure server don't mix

 Y Fixed. Thanks for saying something—I just realized that I made the same mistake on some other scripts, so I'm going to need to fix those. —Animum (talk) 22:51, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
Thanks! I have this ridiculously draconian, but at the same time, rudimentary, content filtering going on where I log in from. Any URL with the word "block" in it is blocked (except over https). Good god it is annoying. –xenotalk 23:02, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
Tell me about it. The one I have to deal with is so bad that it blocks sites where you purchase tickets for the theater. —Animum (talk) 23:12, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

← As penance, perhaps you could fix the "Page logs" thingee in my User:Xeno/monobook.js. I'm sure I could figure it out, but it would be much faster if you did it ;p –xenotalk 23:06, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Heh, I'll give it a whirl. ;-) —Animum (talk) 23:12, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
I'm pretty sure it's fixed now ([1]). Heh, for the longest time I thought your problem was that the link wasn't showing up, but then I put two and two together.  Animum (talk) 02:38, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
If you're curious, what your problem was in both instances is that the secure server uses a different URL format than the regular gateway, so the simple ole "/w/index.php" that works here doesn't work there (of course, neither does "http://en.wikipedia.org/", but that goes without saying  ). —Animum (talk) 02:44, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
Thanks! I'm glad it slipped by you for a bit, makes me feel better for not recognizing it! ;> –xenotalk 01:39, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Rfafinder again

I bet you hate this script by now ;p User:Fox is returning Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Foxy Loxy 3 as opposed to Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Fox (redirect to user's RFA). –xenotalk 14:34, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

 Y Fixed — The problem was that "Fox" was the first part of "Foxy Loxy," so I made the script look for nothing short of an exact match. I thought I had already built that safety in, but clearly not.  Animum (talk) 03:01, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
I figured as much. Thanks for the fix =] –xenotalk 13:02, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Problem with Script

It's depressing that I didn't notice this until now, but here it is: Remember when I had you put that RfB link into your user rights script? Well, it searches the successful RfAs category. Believe it or not, just now was the first time I've actually clicked that link. :) Anyhoo, if you could fix that, it would be great. ~~ Hi878 (Come shout at me!) 04:44, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

You need to check your talk page more often... :) ~~ Hi878 (Come shout at me!) 18:01, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
It was lying, it was searching the RfB cats. However, it appears this fix also needs applied to the RfB section because it won't find Xeno 2 (but finds MBisanz). –xenotalk 18:13, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
 Y Done I believe that the edit summary explains it all. :-) —Animum (talk) 04:47, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
