Tone

Smackbot seems to have placed an "inappropriate tone" label on this page which I think is not correct. I edited it out but it's still appearing there. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academy_of_arms

No it didn't. Article fixed. Message left. Rich Farmbrough, 22:02 3 April 2008 (GMT).

Pandemic

Here's the the link for original article on where the rumor started that Pandemic is developing the Dark Knight game.

Rumor: Pandemic to Develop New Batman Game by Matt Casamassina May 17, 2007 http://ps3.ign.com/articles/789/789648p1.html

I'm just signed up for Wikipedia and wasn't exactly sure how the editing process worked. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AzBat360 (talk • contribs) 05:14, 4 April 2008 Needs archiving. Rich Farmbrough, 08:46 27 June 2008 (GMT).

sources for Tenth Army page

I hope I am doing this correctly. I have no experience doing stuff with wikipedia.

Rich, I see that in 2005, you were one of the first people associated with the wikipedia entry on the Italian 10th army (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_Tenth_Army). I am trying to find out what sources the article in question was drawn from.

thanks,

Caps in templates

SmackBot capitalizing and adding "date=" to fact tags

Edits like this seem completely unnecessary. Am I wrong? II | (t - c) 07:26, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Yes, the date parameter needs to be there explicitly named so that article is in the hidden category Category:Articles with unsourced statements since July 2008. Rich Farmbrough, 09:51 15 July 2008 (GMT).

Lazs AREN'T KARTVEL/GEORGIAN

"Some Laz living in Turkey do not accept the umbrella term "Kartvelian" no no no Anybody Lazs dont accept that fascist 'Kartveli' term.Stop vandalism and all Kartvelist attacks.Lazs arent Georgian.All Lazs living in Turkey believe that reality.In some Laz living Georgia believe.But not important.Because Kartvelism, Kartveli languages and Lazs and other Georgians what is this ? Are you insane ?Lazs arent Georgian.Lazs are a Caucasic claim in Georgia-Turkey.I'm a Laz(Ma Lazi vore-Me Lazi var) but im not brother of Kartvelians/Georgians.Lazs are brother claim of Mingrelian nation.And Lazs are cousin of Georgians.

In Georgia, The number of Mingrelian speakers is declining, and most Mingrelian speakers positively identify themselves as "Georgian" (Kartveli).There are no Mingrelian language schools, books, or newspapers, although there were periodic attempts at establishing Mingrelian as a literary language in the late czarist and early Soviet periods.The assimilation of Mingrelians by the Georgians, which accelerated in the nineteenth century under the impact of modernization, was completed after the Soviet annexation and MİSHA's Georgia's...

And i didnt see Georgian Catholic Laz :) This is stupidly lie. Yes a small minority(in Sakartvelo) Lazs are Orthodox Predominantly Lazs are Muslim.Not Catholic.

We know they.Stop "Georgianization" ATTACKS.Thats way please open Laz people page.And i shall change that falsesMy documents from MINORITYRIGHTS.COM gropus.Please we(Lazs) believe and much want.TuTastemre LAZ

Very minor smackbot bug

I just reverted smackbot, which got confused at Skolem's paradox and deleted the name of a journal (possibly because some other editor did something odd with the references). R.e.b. (talk) 03:12, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

AWB recognise the [[en: link and moves it to the end with the others. Rich Farmbrough, 11:56 18 July 2008 (GMT).

SmackBot and Template:Tracklist again

Hi, did you get a chance yet to bring up SmackBot's removal of linebreaks in the {{tracklist}} template? It still appears to be an issue. – Cyrus XIII ^(talk) 08:36, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

Yes at http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:AutoWikiBrowser/Bugs&diff=prev&oldid=208996804 Rich Farmbrough, 20:55 18 July 2008 (GMT).

Ok, I'll follow up on that one. Just to be clear, SmackBot itself relies on (the current version of) AWB? – Cyrus XIII ^(talk) 15:10, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Yes indeed, AWB is the platform. Rich Farmbrough, 16:40 20 July 2008 (GMT).

Dating the split tags.

Any chance of adding the date parameter to the four {{split}} tags? Cheers. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 23:28, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Minor SmackBot issue

Thought I should mention that SmackBot recently made an edit at Year 2038 problem in which it removed the underscore in "<code>[[time_t]]</code>" (changing time_t to time t). I fixed the edit and added the pipe trick, will this prevent any more SmackBot edits or is there another way to stop it? ^RTEN _{talk ♦ contribs} 03:29, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

This is an old (WP:AWB) problem affecting links to things like mod_perl. I forget the solution I proposed, but I think there was a whitelist created. Rich Farmbrough, 10:50 20 July 2008 (GMT).
