Can you add an archive search to your boxes, or tell me the central place to get this done?Thanks. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 07:25, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
Can MiszaBot run on fr.wikipedia?Hi Misza13, Would it be possible for you to make your bot MiszaBot run on the French Wikipedia? As and when the project grows up, collaboration between contributors intensifies, and it would be useful to have a mean of archival, something that your bot can provide in a good way. I thought about creating my own bot for that purpose, but I definitely don't have the time for that. Moreover, people (including me) seem happy with MiszaBot. Could you make it run on the French project, please? Thank you. :) Diti (talk to the penguin) 20:41, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
Talk:International reaction to the 2008 declaration of independence by KosovoCan you please archive some of the old discussions on Talk:International reaction to the 2008 declaration of independence by Kosovo please? Regards Ijanderson (talk) 10:17, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
MiszaBot's IRC dumpIs there by any chance a bot that displays only RC edits that are highlighted (a lot of bytes removed/added)? -- Mentifisto 03:49, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
Opposition to automatic archival of talk page posts more than 6 months oldThere are articles, such as Cher, where un-constructive edits of a similar nature (for example, inflated sales claims which are poorly sourced; arguments that Cher is not gay and so should not be labeled a gay icon or an article of LGBT interest, etc.) could be dissuaded by a quick read of these earlier discussions on the Discussion page. By automatically removing posts older than 6 months, I would argue you are necessitating that similar conversations need to be had and points must be re-made, which wastes editors' time and will ultimately make archives redundant and longer than necessary. Certain posts may well serve no purpose once an unusual question has received a response, and would be reasonable to remove well before 6 months. However, there are a great many posts that should remain on talk pages as long as possible because they remain relevant. Here's one irrelevant Talk:Cher thread that remains: Cher 62!!!!I can't believe it! She's 62 years old!!! She looks ----- 25, 30? How come the average bus-pass OAP dosnt look like her? I wonder how many face lifts shes had. 78.146.21.74 (talk) 20:32, 21 September 2008 (UTC) Thanks for that. Please note this page is for discussing improvements of the article, not for discussing Cher's amazing ability to remain young in appearance. Wildhartlivie (talk) 00:59, 22 September 2008 (UTC) Here's one relevant thread your bot removed: How it could be 12.5m Sales in USA???How could it be that she sold so little so i did a little Search the RIAA Are wrong Because : 4m(Believe album 2m(Believe Single) 3m Heart of stone 2m(The Very Best of Cher) 1m(cher the album) 0.5(Living proof) 0.5(Love Hurts) 0.5(Take Me home) 0.5(The Sonny Side of Cher) 1m(If I Could Turn Back Time) 0.5(Dark Lady Album) 0.5(Dark Lady Single) 3m(Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)) 0.5(If I Could Turn Back Time: Cher's Greatest Hits) 0.5(Half-Breed Single) 0.5(The Way of Love) 0.5(Take Me Home)=21m Sales in USA so how did they get to 12.5 and is There A Chance they will Correct The Error??(Soory For My Bud English) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.126.236.41 (talk) 05:08, 19 August 2008 (UTC) 12.5 million is for minimum album salesThe 12.5 m sales that RIAA stated is for SOLO MINIMUM ALBUM sales in the U.S. so it does NOT include singles. It is based on the certifications of Cher albums (4x plat, 3x plat, 2x plat, plat n 5 gold) this does not include the other cher albums which all sold less than 500,000 in U.S. THEREFORE, Cher sold AT LEAST 12.5m albums in the U.S. alone Sonnyandcherfan (talk) 15:07, 6 September 2008 (UTC) I guarantee you that someone will again take issue with sales claims made, or the way in which they are worded and the inferences drawn, because this thread and others like it (some more in-depth) have been removed. There are talk pages which are longer than their articles, but the Cher talk page was already briefer than it should be, given the constructive discussion which now no longer appears there, despite the fact that these edits continue. I'm sure similar situations are occurring at other talk pages. Respectfully awaiting a response, Abrazame (talk) 01:56, 7 February 2009 (UTC)
Newsletter deliveryHi Misza: I'm wondering if you and your bot could deliver the WP:Birds newsletter for me. If so, please ping me, and I'll give you the particulars. Thanks! MeegsC | Talk 13:43, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
MiszaBot instructionsHow does MiszaBot decide what is boiler plate on a talk page and should be left there no matter what? Even if it is something simple, like the first section header, could you please add an explanation to User:MiszaBot/Archive HowTo? While simple should work for my talk page, if you're looking for features to add, some way to explicitly mark parts of the page for exemption to archiving could be useful. Maybe even just the position of the archive request code as a divisor. Thanks, --J Clear (talk) 14:07, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Can anyone fix this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zobango (talk • contribs) 12:05, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
Pywiki patchThis has sat totally untouched since the beginning of this year, despite being an utterly trivial patch (although note the patch in the bug report is wrong). I was wondering if you could take a moment to review and implement this: I've been running it on my own copy of pywiki for months now, with absolutely no problems; I don't see how there can be any issues with it. The svn diff is this: Index: pywikipedia/wikipedia.py

Block optionsHello Misza, recently your bot does block gwp socks with the emailban option disabled. I think you know that it is necessary to enable it, and wonder if there was a reason why it has been disabled. Could you please re-enable it, or otherwise I'm interested to know what the reason for disabling it was. Happy editing. --Oxymoron83 07:03, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
Archiving undated postsDoes User:MiszaBot III archive sections without a timestamp? If not is using Template:unsigned etc. the best way to get them archived? -- Mentifisto 07:23, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
Hi, I set up this page for auto archiving about a week or so ago, but it has yet to be picked up by the bot. Have I done something wrong? PC78 (talk) 17:15, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
Bug in MiszaBotIIIMiszaBotIII seems to have missed a few threads on User talk:Davidwr. I have it set for 45 days. It's most recent archives picked up threads as late as January 6, but it missed a few threads dated earlier. Before I manually archive them I wanted to give you a chance to look at it and possibly tweak the bot. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 14:29, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

The kinks are still being worked out in a new design for these Signpost deliveries, and we apologize for the plain format for this week. Delivered by §hepBot (Disable) at 16:40, 24 February 2009 (UTC) Can you help me with the "statusChanger". For me it doesn't work (nothing works for me! :( ), so if it's possible could you do it for me or something (likely it will work for you!). Here are the links: I have inserted a hidden commment in the User:Bo98 page that you can delete and replace with the thing you have to put there. If you can't I'll.... well I'll see! lol :).
