Looks fine to me? Do you know what traceback you got? Legoktm (talk) 00:22, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

I went ahead and reverted my removal of a link, it should throw a large traceback now. Werieth (talk) 16:56, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

Ugh I've fixed that by disabling the have-Legobot-fix-the-page feature. Thanks for the report. Legoktm (talk) 06:24, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

lowp

Hi,
just for the case you start editing at lowp, please keep the edit rate very low (one per minute, or even less)! There are only ~850 articles and the job is rather quickly finished. I want to double check every edit, so no hurry. ;-) Oh by the way: poke a global 'crat/steward for the flag. XD — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mabdul (talk • contribs) 11:50, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

I got global bot which will work on lowp. I'll have it edit with a throttle of 1epm, but thats going to be veryyy slow :/ Legoktm (talk) 00:30, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Forgot to respond: yes, very slow, but I somehow linke lowp. ;-) a) We have no deadline and b) in that way I can check every edit slowly by myself and also fixing other stuff. (and by the way: you have to wait until consensus for blocking/locking the other bots XD) mabdul 10:00, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Sockpuppet investigations/Abhidevananda

Sorry Legoktm but you collapsed only my tables. On my point of view there is a strong evidence of those users behaviours on this table. Can you please restore it?--Cornelius383 (talk) 09:20, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

No, I won't. Those comments/tables/etc were highly irrelevant to the SPI going on. If you think another editor is socking, file a new WP:SPI. If you think users are behaving improperly, see WP:ANI. Legoktm (talk) 09:23, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Ok. Thanks Legoktm. There is this at the Administrators_noticeboard but somebody inserted again a collapse box around the table. Is that correct?--Cornelius383 (talk) 11:06, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

It was collapsed to ease readability of the page, not because of any judgement of it's content. Legoktm (talk) 11:07, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Sorry Legoktm but the users user:bobrayner and user:Garamond Lethe are still changing the page writing something on the collapsed box of my tables. Your text "This discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it" has been changed. I tried to revert all, but they reverted again. Can you please intervene and revert it? Thanks for your understanding.--Cornelius383 (talk) 12:57, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Help

Hi Legoktm, Kindly help me here, Thanks. Muhammad Shuaib (talk) 11:22, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Yeah?

Ok. Wavespin (talk) 16:33, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

template fix (Bug 46096)

what caused the problem? is it just that putting spaces in front of a template like that breaks it? Aunva6 (talk) 03:25, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

Yes. Legoktm (talk) 03:25, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

ok, thanks. unfortunately, twinkle doesn't have the generic disruptive template included... probably why I never encountered this before. Aunva6 (talk) 03:51, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Putting spaces at the start of any line

whether it contains templates or not

will cause a dramatic change in formatting. More at H:MARKUP#Limiting formatting / escaping wiki markup (the bit about leading spaces). --Redrose64 (talk) 12:08, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

Hi! Would you consider to run your bot on Ukrainian Wikipedia for removing interwiki links? The approval page is here. Thanks in advance. --DixonD (talk) 07:33, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Iron Maiden - Rock in Rio

Hi. I moved two pages in the Italian page of Wikipedia (it:Rock in Rio (DVD Iron Maiden) and it:Rock in Rio (album Iron Maiden)), but I've lost all other languages in the same section on the left of the site. Can you resolve this problem? Thanks. --SuperVirtual (talk) 10:00, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Looks like BetaBot fixed the first, and you fixed the second. :) Legoktm (talk) 20:27, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

Mark a lot of pages for microformatting
