Reporting to AIV

How many warnings is ClueBot supposed to wait for before filing a report to AIV? I always thought it was 4 but a couple of times recently I've noticed the report after a level 3 warning. An example is this user. ClueBot filed the report here. Has something changed?-- 5 albert square (talk) 01:08, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

I think they changed it to level 3. CLCStudent (talk) 01:11, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

here. -- Cobi^(t|c|b) 02:40, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

Thanks both, wanted to check it had changed and the bot wasn't doing something it shouldn't :)-- 5 albert square (talk) 13:20, 3 December 2020 (UTC)

ClueBot III: Unusual index

Hello! I recently set up my talk page to be indexed by ClueBot III. However, it generated an extremely unusual index, so now the archive box is ridiculously long and links to what seem to be some of the first (alphabetical — they all start with punctuation) pages on Wikipedia. Does anyone know what is going on? Any help would be greatly appreciated. — Twassman [Talk·Contribs] 04:27, 4 December 2020 (UTC)

Diffamation

I dont understand what i did wrong, i did the fourth time a edit summary for justify my choices but you apparently dont want to take care about them. Please tell le why.

Thanks you. Beulobwaaa (talk) 19:43, 7 December 2020 (UTC)

I'll send you a message on your talk page about this. As you're blocked, you won't be able to edit ClueBot NG's talk page but you're currently able to edit your own.-- 5 albert square (talk) 22:21, 7 December 2020 (UTC)

What is an unsourceful eddit

What is this EmmaTheLad (talk) 10:17, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. It means that you've not provided a source to back up your changes, although it was Materialscientist that warned you for that and not ClueBot. ClueBot warned you for possible vandalism here and again possible vandalism here. Please be aware that ClueBot is not a human editor and as such it works on how probable it is that an edit is vandalism. For what it's worth, I agree with both of ClueBot's reverts there.

Materialscientist reverted you here because you changed the number of students but didn't provide a source to back up your changes. Wikipedia works on verifiability, as your edit couldn't be verified it was reverted.

Please also read this. I had to revert you here. Article talk pages should only be used to discuss changes to the article and not for general chat.I hope this helps you :)-- 5 albert square (talk) 16:51, 8 December 2020 (UTC)

ClueBot III: Unusual index (Again)

I posted this message, but nobody answered and it got archived. I'm trying again here and pinging Cobi:

Why are u revert my edits

Are u paid for this things? Alexander The king (talk) 10:26, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

Explained to you at Teahouse and your Talk page that Cluebot is a robotic program. David notMD (talk) 12:55, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

You also asked about ClueBot NG at ANI. I've closed your discussion, while your edits weren't vandalism, the bot also did nothing wrong therefore there's nothing further for an administrator to do. You can see the discussion and the suggestions from other users here-- 5 albert square (talk) 20:55, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

Converting from MiszaBot to Cluebot III

Hi, for the page Wikipedia:Article Rescue Squadron – Rescue list Cluebot III is now successfully archiving starting with archive 23. However having trouble displaying the old archive pages ("/Archive 1..22") in the index box. Or, displaying the new archive page in the old Index box ("/Archives 23") - note: Misza is "/Archive #" and Cluebot III is "/Archives #" even though ClueBot III was defined to use "/Archive #". So, I am now using both old and new index boxes. Is this the only/best way? -- GreenC 16:12, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

I tried renaming "/Archive 22" to "/Archives 22" but the ClueBot III index did not see it. -- GreenC 16:12, 13 December 2020 (UTC)

Can't create an account for reporting false positives

Every time I try to create an account, I get "BAD CAPTCHA! GO AWAY!" Ikjbagl (talk) 01:24, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) What is the false positive that you're trying to report?-- 5 albert square (talk) 19:36, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

Hey

I just wanna ask,How do you I create a page here since I'm new and all Pecey lukholo (talk) 15:24, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Hey, please be aware that ClueBot NG isn't human and therefore cannot answer questions. Please read this for help in creating your first article.-- 5 albert square (talk) 19:40, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

I am not doing any vandalism. It's a false positive. Your operator should go and buy one of those at the supermarket.Then once he puts it in his mouth, he starts a stopwatch. Do that, operator. I give you 48 hours to prove me wrong. No pressure. Just don't block me.76.180.56.43 (talk) 01:48, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

While I cannot see that your edit is vandalism, it's also not an edit that's beneficial to Wikipedia. It's your own point of view. The edit that ClueBot NG reverted was also reverted by a human editor.-- 5 albert square (talk) 16:14, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

how do i add citation needed?

my citation needed got deleted — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:645:100:1D20:D1C:61EE:7067:4D28 (talk) 03:11, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

• Hello. The easiest way to mark information in an article with "citation needed" is to write {{cn}} (that is, double curly braces around the letters "cn") after the information that lacks a citation. You can read more about this in the page Wikipedia:Citation needed and more in general at Help:Introduction. —2d37 (talk) 11:36, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
