Category:Articles with missing files - again

Hey there. Can you work you little magic trick on Category:Articles with missing files to get rid of the false positives again? It is now over 11,000 articles and I am sure that some should not be listed. Have fun at Wikimania. Cheers. -- Alan Liefting (talk - contribs) 06:26, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Blocked IP

I had reported the IP at AIV before I saw the block. If you see the evidence I presented there, you might agree that the block could be longer. AutomaticStrikeout  ?  01:30, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Maybe, but I think 2 weeks is fine for now. If the disruption continues I'll let another admin decide if they want to extend it. Legoktm (talk) 01:34, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
I suppose. Actually, I just hope we are not setting a dangerous precedent here by refusing to allow people to follow their religious principles in their !votes. I know this is an extreme case, but where do we draw the line? AutomaticStrikeout  ?  01:41, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
There's no way that guy is a serious Muslim. Look at this diff for example if you don't believe me. Soap 01:57, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
Yeah, you're probably right. AutomaticStrikeout  ?  02:15, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Flags

Hey, Lego. Mind tossing some reviewer and rollbacker flags in the direction of my alt account? — PinkAmpers&(Je vous invite à me parler) 05:30, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Done. Legoktm (talk) 05:42, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
Much obliged. — PinkAmpers&(Je vous invite à me parler) 05:47, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Annoying request

Okay, I'm really sorry to be annoying, but I'm having trouble with HBC Archive Indexerbot, and I can't seem to resolve them. I'm apparently completely incompetent, but I sought advice at the Teahouse and IRC, to no avail. Could you please take a look? User_talk:Jackson_Peebles and User_talk:Jackson_Peebles/Archive Index. Thanks, and sorry! --Jackson Peebles (talk) 19:33, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

wikiproject watchlist tool

Hi Legoktm,

I wonder if you are aware that your wikiproject watchlist tool is much slower than the one provided by user:dispenser. If so, is there anything you can do to speed it up? Thanks in advance. XOttawahitech (talk) 20:38, 18 August 2013 (UTC)

Um, probably not. "My" tool was actually written by User:Tim1357 and I just copied it to my directory since his account expired. It's probably best if you use Dispenser's tool since he actually maintains and updates it. Legoktm (talk) 01:33, 24 August 2013 (UTC)

AFCH ping

Hey, pinged you on IRC earlier, just cross-messaging here for good measure: when you get a chance, please push the current `master` to the gadget file on-wiki, and do the same for the `beta` – note that for the beta script (not the master script) some changes to the afc push script mapping will be necessary due to a new css file (you'll see when you look at the /src). Theopolisme (talk) 00:11, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Noticed you've been editing recently; if you're unable to help with this, I totally understand, but it'd be helpful to know so I can try to recruit someone else to help (and/or fork your move script to make the necessary changes myself). Theopolisme (talk) 00:12, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
Sorry, I've just been caught up with other things lately and haven't had time to review all the changes. I'll get to it tommorrow. Legoktm (talk) 08:55, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Sockmaster Shakeheitor

I see you reported User:Shakeheitor for sockpuppetry. I thought it might be worth pointing out that there's a very good chance that this is the same editor as the blocked socker User:Johnericlee. The Shakeheitor account was created two days after Johnericlee was blocked, they both edit the same kinds of articles, Shakeheitor reverted an edit of mine from two months ago that was part of an MOS dispute I had with Johnericlee, and just like Johnericlee created a hoax RfA so has Shakeheitor. Not sure if it really matters but I thought it was worth pointing out the similarities. SQGibbon (talk) 19:06, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for the tip. User:DoRD has updated Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Shakeheitor, and I've now indeffed the account. If you notice any more socks popup, please file an WP:SPI. Thanks! Legoktm (talk) 19:38, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Legobot

Hi,

Appreciate if you could take a look at Legobot; Task 18 apparently hasn't run since 08 August. Thank you! Maralia (talk) 19:41, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the note, fixed now. Legoktm (talk) 05:08, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
Thank you very much! Maralia (talk) 05:55, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

"Your user rights were changed by Legoktm"!

Hi Legoktm, I just got a message saying "Your user rights were changed by Legoktm. You are no longer a member of this group: confirmed." Did I break some rule? --Space simian (talk) 07:52, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) You are now autoconfirmed, so the confirmed flag is redundant. --Rschen7754 08:39, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
Ah, thanks for the explanation. It coincided with other events so I wondered if it was related. --Space simian (talk) 07:00, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

AFCH

Beta and master have both been updated when you get a chance. Thanks as usual! Theopolisme (talk) 22:22, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

@Theopolisme: both master and beta pushed. I'll be on IRC for another hour in case anyone reports issues and needs a rollback. Legoktm (talk) 05:38, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

There's tons more—I've just been going through this—but I figure that should keep you busy for a while. — PinkAmpers&(Je vous invite à me parler) 02:13, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

fml. I'm going to write a script to do this. Legoktm (talk) 05:39, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
