Blocked

I've blocked the both after it kept reverting me and warning me for removing a stray speedy deletion tag on an already-blocked editor's talkpage where I created the talkpage. Please modify the behavior - this doesn't seem to have been the first time this has happened. There's no reason for the bot to operate at all on user talk pages.

I've unblocked the bot for now: I shouldn't have set autoblock, unfortunately - apologies if that's caused a problem. Acroterion (talk) 20:10, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
The intended function of the bot is that it prevents users from removing csd templates from pages they have created, that's not a malfunction ;). However, I can see where you're coming from, so I've done a little bit of programming to support an extra configuration page. You can now set the namespaces the bot patrols at User:SDPatrolBot/namespaces.css. I've removed user talk namespace for you. The version of the bot which supports this configuration page will be up and running on the server within a few minutes or so. Since it runs on a separate server, the autoblock shouldn't cause any problems (as an admin I am IP block exempt anyway), however, for future reference you can undo an autoblock by finding its ID in this list, and then unblocking that ID, I've done that for you here. - Kingpin13 (talk) 20:41, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
Wonderful; it was an odd collision of circumstances that I created the page, somebody else tagged it and I removed it. I'm fine with all other namespaces, but given the rarity of user talkpage deletion, it's probably best excluded from that namespace. Thanks for cleaning up the autoblock.
