Persondata added on non-bio article

Just a heads up, your bot added Persondata to the article on 2010 Portland car bomb plot. Presumably it's because it discusses a person/has a bio infobox, but in this instance, it's not really suitable. Not sure if anything needs changing, but thought you should know nonetheless. Cheers!

Slightly odd article format, but rev 7844 fixes AWB to not add persondata in such situations. Rjwilmsi 07:43, 1 October 2011 (UTC)
It did it again at Rich man and Lazarus, but it's an article about a parable of Jesus, not about a person. Angr (talk) 22:24, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

Did you run it? ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 13:06, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
Yes, and no changes. Rjwilmsi 13:12, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

Bot tagging redirects

Many redirect tags you did made it impossible to move some pages without requesting a move which is unfortunate since many cases don't really need one...Anyway that was a long time ago. Cheers. Tachfin (talk) 21:41, 1 October 2011 (UTC)

This unfortunate side-affect was pointed out to me a couple of months ago. When I next run the redirect tagger task I'll restrict the logic to redirects last edited more than a month ago, to allow time for incorrect moves to be corrected more easily. Rjwilmsi 12:40, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

marking patrolled

Which of the bots edits on unpatrolled articles are being marked patrolled? All of them? Are all of them appropriate in the sense of dealing with any needed problems? just asking, seeing that this bot is the most active of all patrollers--see the table at User talk:Kudpung/NPP]].

My bot was marked as an autoreviewer by an admin, so I believe the 88,000 records in the report you reference is from the redirects that my bot created during its redirect creation task. I'm not using the bot to perform any explicit page patrolling. Rjwilmsi 12:37, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

RjwilmsiBot and Persondata

Rjwilmsi, I've noticed that when your bot populates persondata fields for place of birth and death, it includes the wikilink brackets around those values, which I assume were pulled from the infobox or body of the article. See here for an example. Is there any reason to put those brackets in the persondata table? Isn't that just clutter? Thanks. Jweiss11 (talk) 06:10, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

The example at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Persondata#Guidelines includes wikilinks. Please take it up on Wikipedia_talk:Persondata if you think it needs further discussion. Rjwilmsi 06:47, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
The examples at Wikipedia:Persondata do not include brackets. I'll pursue this issue with WikiProject Persondata. Thanks. Jweiss11 (talk) 06:54, 14 October 2011 (UTC)

A beer for you

Thankyou for participating in my request for adminship. Now I've got lots of extra buttons to try and avoid pressing by mistake... Redrose64 (talk) 15:47, 14 October 2011 (UTC)
