I'm not entirely sure about this: but the table at the top of the WP:DRN page looks like it has not been updated in a couple of days. There are 5 or 6 DRN cases that are closed (grey) and usually the bot removes the grey cases within a day or less. Maybe all the cases closed in the past 24 hours? but a couple look like they are 2 days old. Not too sure. Thought you'd want to know. -- Noleander ( talk) 20:52, 9 May 2013 (UTC)
I just wanted to notify you that User:EarwigBot has failed to perform tasks 2 and 3 since 05:35, May 8, 2013 even though they are set to "run". — Gmt2001 ( talk) 09:46, 9 May 2013 (UTC)
Is it down? Its last update at DRN was 5:30 (utc-7)?-- Cameron11598 (Converse) 06:13, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
Can you change the date/time stamps to a form that will properly sort by date?
Also, can you put a "last ran" timestamp at the top of the output? davidwr/( talk)/( contribs)/( e-mail) 22:18, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
See this-- Cameron11598 (Converse) 21:32, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
It seems like the bot isn't updating the Template:DRN case status or the noticeboard itself since it's last edit on the noticeboard here. Does there appear to be an issue with the bot, or is there something I'm causing that's resulting in this?
Another editor also noted that the case status wasn't updated and updated it accordingly here. Crashdoom Talk 22:50, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
Hey there. It seems that we will be trying a different format at DRN where cases are subpages, and transcluded, rather than on the one page. Toolserver issues aside, how long do you think this would take to implement (and what would you need me to do to line things up?) Steven Zhang Help resolve disputes! 13:24, 18 May 2013 (UTC)

The article waveguide filter seems to break your copyvio tool. Is there a limit on the number of sources it can handle? The article has quite a long bibliography. Spinning Spark 09:54, 15 May 2013 (UTC)

WikiProject AFC is holding a one month long Backlog Elimination Drive!
The goal of this drive is to eliminate the backlog of unreviewed articles. The drive is running from July 1st, 2013 – July 31st, 2013.
Awards will be given out for all reviewers participating in the drive in the form of barnstars at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 1000 articles, so start reviewing articles! Visit the
drive's page and help out!
A new version of our AfC helper script is released! It includes many bug fixes, new improvements and features, code cleanup, and more page cleanups. If you want to see a full list of changes, go to Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Helper script/Development page. Please report bugs and feature requests there, too! Thanks.

Hi, I believe I PRODded this in September 2012, and the PROD went through. Is it really possible to contest a PROD 9 months later? In any event, the page was the sole creation of a blocked editor who is also a major sockpuppeteer. So can't the page be deleted (again) under CSD G5? Thanks. Logical Cowboy ( talk) 23:46, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
"blocked editor who is also a major sockpuppeteer" - True, but their first block was not until August, when they created the page before said block. G5 only applies when edits/creations are done in violation of their block/ban; as they were under no block/ban at the time it doesn't apply. Other interesting thing, it took me a few minutes to decipher the SPI in question, but it looks like Morning277 was the master, and as their first block was in August of 2012 was not in violation of any blocks/bans on other accounts (by virtue of being master, master is usually first account), so again, no G5.
This was undeleted per a request on the help desk, and can still be sent to AfD if you so desire. I made no comment on it other than to request it's undeletion per procedure. Charmlet ( talk) 00:08, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello Earwig,
I just wanted to request you undelete SUADE. They are just about to release their 3rd album. If I have made a mistake on the page I do apologise. I am new to wiki and am still learning what changes to make and how to improve citations. Do I have to start fresh or can you undelete and I can change the name.
As per 20:57, 6 May 2012 The Earwig (talk | contribs) deleted page SUADE (G12: Unambiguous copyright infringement: http://www.suade.net/)
How have I infringed on copyright?
http://www.suade.net/ That is their correct website.
Can you please get back to me as to what I have done wrong or should correct. And can you undelete the page so I can update for new album and changes to members of the group.
Thanks Tricia Ziemer — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tricia Ziemer ( talk • contribs) 04:57, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
Thanks Earwig..yes I do have copyright release from them, but I will write it from scratch and yes I have links to their media events, news paper, xfactor etc. But from scratch is fine. Yes, I am learning to be less emotive with my edits.
Thanks for that. Ta Tricia — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tricia Ziemer ( talk • contribs) 06:31, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
I noticed you pushed some commits while I was gone. Thanks for your help, but I need to give you a trout for that because you pushed all of mabdul's alpha changes into master instead of develop. Please be more careful so I don't accidentally push alpha stuff to the stable build on-wiki.
If you have any clones of WPAFC/afch lying around, you need to run these two commands on them because I broke the tags and had to update:
git tag -l | xargs git tag -d
git fetch --prune

Hello,
I appreciate your skills in designing pages; hence, would like to show you the following page: User:JustBerry/GOCEMenu. The "menu page" is a potential menu tab for WP:GOCE. The idea has already been accepted by the WP:GOCE coordinators, but I would certainly appreciate if you could let me know any ideas/suggestions you may have for the page. Thanks. -- JustBerry ( talk) 18:13, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

Is there any way to use EarwigBot to test older versions of pages? I just re-wrote SK8 and EarwigBot (super-cool, BTW) now flags it as clean - although I see some things I need to touch up further. But I'm more curious in using it to ensure that the older versions actually did have the widespread copyvio I believed I saw. Is there any way to do this? Maury Markowitz ( talk) 22:23, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
Hi there. How much notice do you need to implement the change to subpaging for DRN (and is it possible that we could have the existing threads moved to a subpage and detected by the bot?) I've got the new code ready to implement, so please let me know when you are ready. Thanks in advance :) Steven Zhang Help resolve disputes! 01:16, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
It's late, and I need to sleep. It doesn't look like you're done transitioning yet, so this will have to continue tomorrow (or later, as I might not be available). The bot is off in the mean time. — Earwig talk 08:09, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
Hold on, the task isn't clear to me right now. You're asking the bot to take over discovering (i.e. transcluding) new cases and archiving old ones, too? That was never its role before, so you have to excuse my confusion. I think the filing script should handle the former; no reason for a bot to. As for the latter, I'm not MiszaBot, which means you'll need to instruct me how archiving works. Would you rather I follow the {{ User:MiszaBot/config}} template (except that only closed cases are archived, removing the need for DNU comments), or something else? — Earwig talk 01:13, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
