Fading (song) was passed, but my watch list for the good article nominations said it has been failed... Calvin • NaNaNaC'mon! 15:09, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi Chris G, and many thanks for running User:RFC bot; it is a very helpful tool indeed. I have a request for you: could you update the code for the bot so that it lists Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard on Wikipedia:Dashboard/Editorial noticeboards? It's a new-ish noticeboard (started in June), and I just noticed that it's missing from the dashboard. I thought there must be an obvious way of changing this, but I couldn't see what it was. All the best — Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 10:01, 2 November 2011 (UTC)
The RfC at WT:V has had a problem in Template:rfcquote such that it will not display correctly. Here is a diff, where you will see that the text is correctly entered, showing that this is a display problem in "Template:rfcquote" parameter "text". The display stops before the first pipe in "{|":
I realize that there are a variety of solutions besides modifing Template:Rfcquote. In general, the solution for the specific case at WT:V should avoid changing the text of the RfC as posted on October 6. Thanks, Unscintillating ( talk) 13:37, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
Hi. For the "Visions of Johanna" GA nomination (Music), on the article's Talk page, I added a note that Mick gold was a co-nominator, but then I added him beside my name in the nomination because I thought maybe that was a better way to do it. I didn't know the Note was going to appear like that, and now I feel kind of foolish because his name appears twice in the nomination. Could the Note be removed? Thanks!

I checked the userrights and RFC bot has the bot flag; however, its edits are not being marked as bot edits, and therefore still show up in my watchlist when I hide bot edits. Any ideas ? Regards -- Alexandr Dmitri ( talk) 11:43, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
Please see this edit where the bot has transferred Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Rhain1999 down to 1970 January 1 (I absolutely refuse to write any date as m-d-y). I think it happened because, at the time of the bot's edit Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Rhain1999 was a redirect to Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Rhain1999/Superman and so the bot could not find any date in the redirect page. — RHaworth ( talk · contribs) 10:14, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
Hi Chris,
I have looked over your code for botclasses.php and am hoping to use it for a bot written for my wiki. I have written bots using the Wikimate framework before, but need something more powerful, and your framework seems to be pleasantly straightforward, while having more power. I'm planning on using the version at http://toolserver.org/~chris/highlight.php?d=chris/classes/&f=botclasses.php
Would you be willing to include the simplest of examples in the source code for botclasses(or linked from it)? My programming background is in C from many years ago, so while php was easy to pick up, I don't have any experience with object oriented programming. Such an example would definitely help me, and I'm sure it would help many other newbies as well.
Thanks again for writing the bot. I look forward to using it.

Hi, please see my reply to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bots/Requests_for_approval/SharedIPArchiveBot_2 do you think it could get bot flag before it's approved? thanks Petrb ( talk) 09:56, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi Chris G, I had to revert Chris G Bot 3 because it accidentally blanked changing usernames. It may be a case of nothing, but I thought I'd bring this to your attention anyway. Best. Acalamari 13:45, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
Hi there, I noticed you approved User:Hazard-Bot for renaming categories at closed CfDs on a trial basis. User:Cydebot already does this, and this afternoon I saw Hazard-Bot moving pages at CfDS before the 48 hour period CfdS mandated time period for comment had run out, and without attribution to the previous editors of the categories in question. I have stoppped the bot pending resolution of this - should be discussed at WT:CFD. - The Bushranger One ping only 20:43, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
Greetings. I have recently been adding info to the tables on Bots/Status, as I've been reading through the old bot policy talk archives. With your recent change to the page, though, I can't figure out how to find the subpages you moved the lists to (I'm still a newbie). How do I get there so I can continue to update this page? Thanks in advance... UOJComm ( talk) 22:10, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi, can you migrate GA bot to Hindi Wikipedia? If so then that will be really helpful since we are starting GA feature on that wiki. ASHU IND 19:20, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
Hey I had placed a request to rename my username from Pratiklahoti8004 to BPositive. I just now saw your comments(clerk notes) on thispage. I don't mind going for usurping. But should I place an altogether new request on this page? Pratik Lahoti (talk) 12:14, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
