I subscribed Wikipedia:WikiProject Graphic design to wolterbot's cleanup listings last year. As the "wolterbot coming soon" message is still on the pages, I began to wonder if I subscribed incorrectly, or if something else needs to be done to get things rolling. Thanks for your time and trouble. UnkleFester ( talk) 02:35, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
Just a quick note, there's a new bot dump for Wolterbot to go through. Headbomb { ταλκ κοντριβς – WP Physics} 01:14, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
Can you have Wolterbot update Wikipedia:WikiProject South Dakota/Cleanup listing? I saw that it had updated some but not all of the cleanup pages and was wondering if you could get around to this one? Spiesr ( talk) 16:59, 26 October 2009 (UTC)
I see you are active at the moment with edits in the last few minutes. I thought I'd make sure you noticed a suggestion of a possible explanation for a bug at Bugs#University_of_Chicago_WP:GAR_review_is_being_overlooked.-- TonyTheTiger ( t/ c/ bio/ WP:CHICAGO/ WP:LOTM) 23:39, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

This list seems to be broken. Not that anyone seems to care... Renata ( talk) 22:27, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the update. However, I have a question: I noticed that articles from categories "coordinates missing" and "need cleanup" do not appear on the Wikipedia:WikiProject Lithuania/Cleanup listing. Is that intentional or some bug? Renata ( talk) 00:29, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
Been a while since I heard from you (the WP:AALERTS requests and bugs are starting to pile up). Hope all's well and a merry 2010. Headbomb { ταλκ κοντριβς – WP Physics} 17:39, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
Could you take a look at Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/Biographies_of_living_people#View_by_Balloonman.2Ftechnical_option and let us know if your wolterbot could be adapted to do this?--- Balloonman NO! I'm Spartacus! 22:15, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
The chess project uses cleanup ( WP:WikiProject Chess/Cleanup listing) but the unreferenced lists BLPs only. Can it list all unreferenced articles? Bubba73 (You talkin' to me?), 02:27, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
Bert, I have recently added the Wolterbot template to a great number of country Wikiprojects' main pages. Could you please run you bot once again, now. I'm aware that the bot will run on a dated database dump, still, the results will still be highly useful. It will provide the country projects a list of articles in dire need of references. It will also identify those unreferenced BLP articles that have already been deleted for being unsourced, not stating importance of subject, housekeeping, and all other sorts of reasons, for which BLP articles presently are summarily deleted with little oversight. We need that list as a basis for transferring articles to the incubator or for requesting undeletions. Power.corrupts ( talk) 19:53, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
Hello B. Wolterding. I added subscription for your bot to the WikiProject Czech Republic. Yesterday, I created page Wikipedia:WikiProject Czech Republic/Cleanup listing, where I'm adding unreferenced BLPs. Suddenly, I realized that existing page may confuse your bot (to be honest, I know absolutely nothing about operating a bot). I hope I didn't cause any confusion. If any problem arise just let me know, I'll move the content to my user subpage so we can delete it. Thank you, and apologies for my stupid questions :) -- Vejvančický ( talk) 15:14, 31 January 2010 (UTC)
It's been a while since there were updates for the projects I follow. Is the bot still running? Vegaswikian ( talk) 00:54, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
Would appreciate a new run of the clean-up listing for Wikipedia:WikiProject Children's literature. I have added the subscription template to our main page.-- Plad2 ( talk) 07:44, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
Hi. Apparently the bot hasn't run since November, see Wikipedia:WikiProject Contemporary music/Cleanup listing. Would it be possible to get this going again? Thanks. -- Klein zach 11:34, 19 February 2010 (UTC)
These lists are very useful, but do you have to wait for the dumps? Can you not have access to the toolserver or some other backdoor? Also, given the recent issues with unreferenced BLPs, these should be highlighted or listed at the top of your list, not hidden in the middle. Thanks, The-Pope ( talk) 07:18, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
The Anti-clericalism article needs rewriting. I don't know how to notify the WikiProject Atheism about this. -- Tediouspedant ( talk) 00:28, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
Given that the honorable Mr. Wolterding seems to be dead (no edits since January 3rd), what is the Plan B for WolterBot ??? -- AlainR345 Techno-Wiki-Geek 19:19, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

Hi, Bert! I'm not sure if you know the answer, but since you do much work related to project-tagging, I thought I'd ask. Do you know if there is a tool with the functionality of Special:Random, but limited to a specified WikiProject? If not, do you know if building such a tool is theoretically possible (not necessarily by you :))? Thanks!— Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • ( yo?); March 15, 2010; 15:29 (UTC)
Hi, I've gone through Category:Subscriptions with errors and cleaned up over 100 cleanup listings with errors (mostly subprojects that didn't provide the necessary banner/category details). If you could please run the bot again to update these listings, that would be great. I've deleted the erroneous listing subpages, so you could possibly tell the bot to skip listing pages that exist, if that saves time. Thanks! Rd232 talk 18:16, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
So it looks like because of a API update involving logging in, AAbot broke. When do you think you would have an update by, as it seems the entire system is broken right now? Lego Kontribs TalkM 22:54, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
Just wanted to ask you what happened about your wonderful bot? Will it be running any time soon? -- Tadija speaks 08:52, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
I would be more than willing to help. I have done clean up on a number of boxing articles, and extensive clean up on Andrew Golota, and Riddick Bowe. I know that many more are in dire need, and the ones that I have touched up are a long way from being finished. Please let me know where I can be of further assistance. All the best- Mk5384 ( talk) 06:59, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles ( talk) 18:48, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
Hi Bert,
I see you're busy in real life at the moment, but I'm just letting you know I made a suggestion regarding WolterBot here.
Cheers, Adrian J. Hunter( talk• contribs) 14:01, 21 June 2010 (UTC)
Hello, I just wanted to suggest that you post the code for Article Alert Bot somewhere so that in the event of breakage (such as due to the recent API update) someone can update the code and run a new version without having to bother you about it. Article Alert bot is such a valuable tool for the WikiProjects it would be a shame if it ever had to be discontinued due to people not being able to update the code.

I don't know how to edit articles but I at least got to this point. Simple format edit needed. One of the .jpeg files is overlapping a text box to its right, obliterating important info. The offending .jpeg is of the painting of the Committee of 5.

I have created together with Smallman12q a toolserver tool that shows a weekly-updated list of cleanup categories for WikiProjects, that can be used as a replacement for WolterBot. See the tool's wiki page and the tool itself. Svick ( talk) 18:09, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I've been working at the Zoo Basel page and subpages for quite some time. The goal is to have a higher rating for a better article.
