Halving the update frequency?[edit]

Anyone mind if I run the bot every two hours, instead of every hour? I don't really have a compelling reason, so if anyone says something I won't make the change. It would clutter the bot's contribs a bit less, which is basically it. Enterprisey (talk!) 04:04, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think every hour is reasonable, every two hours seams too long. – BrandonXLF (t@lk) 00:38, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Enterprisey: Cluttering the bot's contribs page isn't really a reason as far as I'm concerned. If we're talking about a tool that in theory is supposed to tell vandal fighters whether or not they're needed, then once every two hours is far too infrequent. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 11:48, 15 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Fair, thank you both for your comments. I will not be changing the update frequency. Enterprisey (talk!) 17:09, 15 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Put at top bar?[edit]

Is there a way to put this at the bar at the top of the page with your username, preferences, etc.? BᴇʀʀᴇʟʏTalk to meWhat have I been doing 10:49, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Bot fixed[edit]

I didn't check the edit summaries case-insensitively, so the bot would recognize "reverted" but not "Reverted". Oops. Anyway, should be fine now. Enterprisey (talk!) 22:32, 22 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Is it normal for it not to update for over 3 hours?[edit]

Hello, I've just discovered this template, and just found out that it says

"3.70 RPM according to EnterpriseyBot 20:10, 18 August 2022 (UTC)"

. - that's more than 3 hours old.

Using "purge" button does not update it. I'm not asking for its refreshing every minute, but I think that is too long. ArtiK-99 (talk) 23:30, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@ArtiK-99: This is normal and expected behaviour. The bot only updates the template when the Defcon level needs to be changed. So, if there are very few reverts per minute (RPM) during a six hour period and it doesn't go over the threshold where the Defcon level would change, then the bot won't edit. The bot checks the RPM every hour, so at most it would update every hour. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 03:13, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

DEFCON level inaccurate?[edit]

The template currently shows a DEFCON level of 2 with 6.12 RPM, but according to the documentation that means it should be on level 3. Heythereimaguy (talk) 19:04, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bot's broken.[edit]

@EnterpriseyBot isn't updating the DEFCON level. Neuropol's updating it for now, but EnterpiseyBot is broken, and should be fixed at the earliest possible time by @Enterprisey. 187.46.134.26 (talk) 13:49, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
