| Ok, I guess I'm back again. If you have come here to gripe about vandalism or edit warring, understand that I run semi-automated tools to fix spelling, grammar, and formatting. As such, I sometimes end up covering the tracks of vandals or people engaged in edit wars. Chances are, unless you are here to complain about content on a writing systems article, I have absolutely no interest in your subject matter. Make sure to view the actual edits I made to your article, and my recent contributions before complaining. |

ClueBot III delay?
editPage: User talk:Ss0jse
Question: "This page has archives. Sections older than 1 hours may be automatically archived by ClueBot III when more than 5 sections are present." Is "may" the operative word there?
Also: The "example topics" on that page are for testing Cluebot III's response time. Ss0jse (talk) 18:34, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Ss0jse:, so I have no idea about how ClueBot III works, but bots in general don't respond to a circumstance like a talk page thread that has expired. Instead, they periodically make a run through pages that they have identified as having requested their service, and check if each one has the circumstance that will trigger their edit. So ClueBot III may only run once a day, or even only a couple times a week, or it could do runs every 3 hours - I don't know. It could have pages categorized into different classes of runs based on their configuration template parameters, and it might even have machine learning that prevents it from having to regularly check pages that don't have the kind of activity necessitating a given frequency. I don't know how any of it works. But you know who does? The person that runs ClueBot does. So to answer that question, you'd want go to User talk:ClueBot III and check out the information there, look through the archives, and if you still can't find what you're looking for, put your question on the talk page to see if they will answer it for you.
- Just realize that it is Labor Day weekend in the US, when many people take summer-end trips. So you might not get a response from the owner of ClueBot. I myself am about to take off because I have a wedding to go to tomorrow, and probably won't be checking in here until Monday. VanIsaac, GHTV contWpWS 19:08, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
