Wrong bot code
editHi. This may sound cheeky but could you please type the correct code on my discussion page to allow your bot to work correctly. I’ve been given a message saying I’ve done it wrong! Thanks. Miller 20:12, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
I've set up Werdnabot for Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)
editDon't know whether this works (as it is not a "user talk" page), but I put the Werdnabot code up on Wikipedia:Village pump (policy).
Here's the edit: [1] - could you check on this whether it's OK? Or remove if this doesn't work? Thanks! --Francis Schonken 20:32, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Bot archiving of Village Pump pages
editHi, I noticed your bot has started archiving WP:VPP after User:Crypticbot got blocked. Could you set it up to archive the other sections of the Village Pump as well? I tried to archive one section, but got reverted by an anti-vandalism bot. I reverted it and that seemed to get the problem under control, but if an effective bot can handle the task of archiving all these pages, there's no reason for a human to waste an hour every couple of weeks doing it. Thanks if your bot can be of assistance. Kudos for designing it. I've seen it around; it is most helpful.--Kchase T 03:58, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
- Just copy and paste the code for archival (don't forget the commented directive) from VPP. It should work fine. Werdna talk criticism 02:26, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
Werdnabot not archiving my talk page
editHmm... Werdnabot is not archiving my talk page anymore, but I haven't meddled with the archival code. :S Can you take a look at my page and see what's wrong? Thanks! Kimchi.sg 12:53, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
- The first few posts on the page have non-standard timestamps. These will need to be manually archived. Werdna talk criticism 02:26, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
- You mean things like timestamps that end with (UTC{{{3|}}}) or (UTC+8) make Werdnabot choke? Because that's what {{unsigned2}} adds if it's subst'ed. Should I not subst unsigned2 in the future, if that's the case? Kimchi.sg 08:03, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
Thank you for Werdnabot!
editI just wanted to drop by and say thank you for your Werdnabot archiver. It is much appreciated. (I'm watching it working on village pump technical) --Ligulem 08:20, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
- Just a note: On the first edit by the bot on the VP/T, it apparently removed a nonused section header from a <pre> block (see line 403 in that diff). This caused a bit of a mess as it removed the </pre> (which became much more apparent lately, as the gap to the next closing <pre> was far down the page). I have attempted to re-add it, but the page is so big it gives me a headache. Also, the archive might be messed up in that section. --Splarka (rant) 10:52, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

An automated message from Werdnabot?!?!
editIt can't archive my talk page it says. It apparently wants me to check an error which is not specified. Let me know what I can do. --Kevin_b_er 18:29, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
Thanks
editThanks for Werdnabot! My talk page was growing faster than 100K per month and it was a pain in the behind to archive. Now I don't have to! Yay! --Yamla 03:42, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk Page Archival
editHi, nice bot you have, I set it up to archive my talk page, and I just got a message that there is some type of error. Anyway you can help me out here? Thanks! --DieHard2k5 01:19, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
Yay! Barnstar
editThe Billington Software Develpment Barnstar
I, Michael Billington, award you the Billington Software Develpment Barnstar for for creating Werdnabot. That bot is so damn smart I'm suprised it hasn't re-written itself in assembly. Keep that bot running!. If you liked this barnstar, then please leave a message on My talk page so it looks like everyone likes me. |
- Thanks :) Werdna talk criticism 04:51, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Suggestion
editI was thinking of putting this forward myself, but I think it might sound better coming straight from the horse's mouth. Have you ever considered suggesting to anyone creating a manually controlled list of high-traffic article talk pages for Werdnabot to take care of? --InShaneee 19:57, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
- Interesting idea. More details? Werdna talk criticism 02:27, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
- Well, the way I see it, there are some pages that get a whole lot of talk traffic, but don't have a lot of experienced, dedicated users around to take care of regular archiving, causing the pages to become unweildly huge. If there was perhaps a system to nominate such pages for patrolling by Werdnabot... --InShaneee 23:23, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
- You could always try getting consensus on the page... Is there something I'm missing here? Werdna talk criticism 03:41, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
- No, I'm not talking about the actual content, just the discussion itself. As in, there's a huge, heated discussion, it ends, but there's no one on the talk page experienced enough to know how to archive it, so it just sits there inactive for months on end. I've seen this happen often on several pages, so if there was some way to request Werdnabot to patrol it and archive everything a week or so old, that would help things greatly. --InShaneee 17:40, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
