Based upon this edit, it appears that DYKUpdateBot is having problems giving credits to anonymous users who utilize IPV6 addresses. Could you look into having the bot be better able to handle these with the same efficiency it uses for IPV4 addresses. This is probably a low priority concern currently, but will grow over time with increased usage of IPV6. Thanks. -- Allen3 talk 00:17, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on File:Gordon dam.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current
Arbitration Committee election. The
Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia
arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose
site bans,
topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The
arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to
review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on
the voting page. For the Election committee,

DYKbot seems to have goofed up a talkpage template [1] by grabbing the text of a graphic rather than the entry itself. I've fixed it manually. Kindzmarauli ( talk) 21:02, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
This is another rare situation. The bot said that " The username 'Djembayz/Archive July 2014' is invalid". The credit was correctly formatted, but User talk:Djembayz redirects to User talk:Djembayz/Archive July 2014. I manually issued a credit for this, but it looks like there were at least three other DYKs since the archive was created ( 1, 2, 3) for which the user presumably received no credit, and it presumably went unnoticed that credits hadn't been issued. I think the talk page should not redirect (it may have been an oversight that a redirect remained on the page), but should the bot be able to handle it anyways?

FYI, DYKUpdateBot missed the 12:00 7 December 2015 (UTC) update. The Labs-l mailing list shows no obvious explanation. A manual update has been performed. -- Allen3 talk 13:18, 7 December 2015 (UTC)
DYKUpdateBot missed the 12:00 8 December 2015 (UTC) update. Manual update has been performed. Test message posted to User:DYKUpdateBot/Errors is not being cleared. No obvious explanation at either the Labs-l mailing list or the most recent Tech News. It would appear that whatever took out the bot yesterday is still at large. -- Allen3 talk 12:43, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
( talk page stalker) Hi there! Your talk page looks pretty long there. If you have time, you should really archive them. ;) Btw I want to suggest that any issues related to the bots should be in another talk page (e.g. DYKUpdateBot issues at the bot's talk page.) This suggestion is for if you have time to check both talk pages. (As you currently only have one very active not.) Cheers! Vincent60030 ( talk) 07:30, 9 December 2015 (UTC)
Hi Shubinator! Just wanted to be sure you saw the conversation about our bots at User talk:EEng#Bodice-Rippers.2C again. Would you be able to update your bot per WP:TPL, or should we have a conversation about the layout at Wikipedia talk:Talk page layout? Thanks! GoingBatty ( talk) 02:13, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
Another glitch by DYKUpdateBot, which missed the 12:00, 23 Dec 2015 (UTC) update. Manual update has been performed. No obvious explanation for the outage at the Labs-l mailing list. A test message posted to User:DYKUpdateBot/Errors has failed to clear, so we apparently need to have the bot restarted. -- Allen3 talk 12:43, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
Noticed an oddity with the most recent update by DYKUpdateBot. When the bot was giving credits and performing archiving the time stamps it generated were in German (or some related language) instead of English. This appears to affect credits placed on article talk pages, archiving of the last set to Wikipedia:Recent additions, and the image credit. The user talk page credits I checked did not appear to be affected by the change of language. -- Allen3 talk 12:27, 24 December 2015 (UTC)

There was some emergency maintenance on the servers earlier today. Both DYKUpdateBot and DYKHousekeepingBot appear to be casualties of this maintenance. Please restart them when you get a chance. -- Allen3 talk 11:40, 30 December 2015 (UTC)
