Is JJMC89 bot III OK?

Just noticed that the bot hasn't made any edits or processed any CfD speedy requests in two days. Is it OK or is that normal behaviour? MClay1 (talk) 07:50, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

It's going again now. Not sure why there was such a big pause but all is well. MClay1 (talk) 08:46, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
Sorry for the late reply. Its not normal. It should normally run about every 30 minutes. For some reason it got stuck. I had managed to do something that let it run again, but it was fully resolved until later, by one of the Toolforge roots. — JJMC89 21:12, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Move request

Hi JJMC, I have a rather large move request in mind I was hoping you could help with. It has already received community consensus, see Wikipedia talk:Featured and good topic candidates/2024#FGTC Reforms – Part 1, item #3. If you'd rather I bring this to Technical requests (it seemed outside that page's scope) or to someone else, I'm happy to do so.

Essentially, both Featured and Good topics are on pages current named "Featured topics/Topic Name". The consensus dictated that all good topics should be named separately: i.e. "Good topics/Topic Name". So all pages in Category:Wikipedia Good topics should be renamed in this manner. Is this something you and your bot could help with? Thanks – Aza24 (talk) 00:34, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

@Aza24:   Done except Wikipedia talk:Featured and good topic candidates/Wiesbaden class cruisers/archive1 since the name does not follow the pattern of the others. — JJMC89 21:03, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
Awesome, thank you so much! Aza24 (talk) 04:13, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

Macedonian music

Hi, your bot has changed a category Macedonian music to Music of North Macedonia. Macedonian music encompasses Slavic settlements that are not just in North Macedonia but in Northern Greece and West Bulgaria as well. There are Ethnic Macedonians there as well with their distinct melos that is part of our broader folk tradition. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq8X0AkRADM This is a folk song from the Kastoria region it is considered as one of our more popular macedonian songs, these ladies are dressed in Macedonian folk attire from the region of Kastoria. Here is another band https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8FS11-QUUW0 it's called Visoka and it's from Kavala, Greece they together with the band Chepkalo Project form a continuum of Macedonian music that is not just within the border of the country North Macedonia. Can you please change it back to Macedonian music as it is already a sensitive subject. Although the name change is a fact per the Prespa Agreement signed with Greece the Macedonian denonnym is not affected and the fact is that there is Macedonian minorities that speak Macedonian language beyond the borders the music should be Macedonian music and not Music of North Macedonia.

Kind regards Justwowman a Macedonian. Justwowman (talk) 05:24, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

The category was moved back in April. Regardless, see the notice at the top of this page. — JJMC89 05:40, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
This doesn't answer anything nor it is close to reality and facts. Justwowman (talk) 10:01, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
It wasn't intended to answer anything. It points you to the notice that identifies who you should be discussing the issue with (not me). My bot automatically processes instructions from other admins. I had nothing to to with the category being renamed. — JJMC89 18:48, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

Image removal

RE: Images removed from List of African-American Firsts page. Those images were already in the wikipedia library, so perhaps they should be deleted from that library if there are copyright issues? ProfessorKaiFlai (talk) 07:28, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
