Idea - add to SuggestBot results Display

edit

Greetings, Today I saw SuggestBot results on another user's Talk, so I did one for myself here. After seeing the results display, 1) I added the Date to section title. 2) Added the Requested at Wikipedia:Teahouse/Suggestions line, with link. 3) Added the two WPs that I had requested. Going forward it would be helpful, IMO, if the bot can provide these elements of the request back onto the display. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 15:09, 5 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Not working?

edit

I tried yesterday and I’ve still received no suggestions. Zanahary (talk) 15:48, 21 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Zanahary: Thanks for reporting this, the bot was indeed not working and I’ve restarted it. I'll also keep an extra eye on it to see if it goes down again and investigate further if it does. Cheers, Nettrom (talk) 15:31, 22 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Bot down…again

edit

Used the template 5 days ago, modified it yesterday, still no response. Maybe it's time to look into what's causing it? mwwv converseedits 18:42, 27 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Oh darn! Thanks for pinging me about this, @Mwwv! In this case the problem was me. The Cloud Services admins announced that they’d reboot the VMs, and I forgot to check up on the bot’s VM to make sure everything was running again after the reboot. Got things moving again now, sorry about that! Cheers, Nettrom (talk) 14:27, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Added suggest bot to talk page but its not working

edit

I have tried to add the code in the source but it has not worked, What else should I try to do? CharlieRidesRollerCoasters (talk) 18:12, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi! You did the right thing, as far as I could tell, but the bot had crashed. Once I restarted it, it looks like it stopped by with some suggestions a few minutes later. Thanks for reporting this, I had a hunch it wasn't working and your notice helped confirm that. Cheers, Nettrom (talk) 20:09, 22 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

THIS BOT IS INCREDIBLE

edit

Hello, I apologize if there's another page to direct this feedback to so as to keep this talk page more operations/improvement feedback oriented - but I love this bot.

I added the code to my talk page and then I was a little concerned that perhaps it wouldn't work right because over this week I've made a bunch of contribs to random pages that I hadn't before, just adding citations and copyediting here and there. My edits today were specifically me procrastinating while reading research papers on a topic for this rigorous course I'm doing at the moment. The course? Reinforcement Learning. Suggestion #4 by SuggestBot. And the 4 papers I've read today? They're on Multi Arm Bandit Optimalities. Suggestion #2. SO COOL. Keep up the fantastic work!!!
