Hi Theusaf(BOT), I have found a problem with your bot. If someone deletes everything on a user/discussion page and substitutes it with text, then auto-revert doesn’t work. Is there anyway to fix this? [[User:42.book.addict|42.book.addict]] ([[User talk:42.book.addict|talk]]) 15:20, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

The hyphen

I suggest replacing the hyphen in the incomplete-tag for newly created explanations with a dash. —While False (museum | talk | contributions | logs | rights) 21:31, 2 November 2022 (UTC)


Hi

Hi

I thought it might autorevert 'wrongly' again.

See the sequence encompassed by this current situation. IMO, it reverted back past a valid rewrite (I can imagine why, though seemingly it was happy with the pre-vandalism rewrite until the vandalism occured). FYI, ready for perhaps your manual fixing. 141.101.99.101 02:05, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, it's definitely acting up. It also removed the Soviet flags that I contributed. 172.71.150.160 02:19, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
THATS BECAUSE YOURE NOT SUPPOSED TO ADD SOVIET FLAGS EVERYWHERE THATS VANDALISM, DUMBASS 42.book.addict (talk) 00:37, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
This is a wiki, which means anyone can edit it. 172.71.147.79 00:49, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
ON THE GODDAMN MAIN PAGE, IT SAYS THAT YOU SHOULDNT BE A JERK-I THINK THIS CONSTITUTES AS BREAKING THAT RULE 42.book.addict (talk) 00:50, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
There are fools out there (above IP being one), and there are rational ones (me, you, many others). To paraphrase the old saying, idiots will prevail only if the sensible do nothing. And we're not only dealing with such idiocracy (disrupters, dishonest actors, etc), but also keep on improving and adding things as we'd do anyway. Which is a net success, however you look at it. 141.101.99.46 15:21, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
Bruh. 172.69.33.200 23:16, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
I'll look into allowing that change. —theusaf (talk) 04:44, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

User/Discussion Pages

Hi Theusaf(BOT), I have found a problem with your bot. If someone deletes everything on a user/discussion page and substitutes it with text, then auto-revert doesn’t work. Is there anyway to fix this? 42.book.addict (talk) 15:20, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

Not wishing to pre-empt Theusaf but, if you're asking about what I think you are, probably it's not working because it hasn't been triggered to work, in those examples. This is down to what the 'bot is told to monitor (and consider needs reverting), and it's not intelligent enough to work that all out on its own.
The question probably is whether theusaf can be asked to add a handler for the current issue (maybe a bit more general, without generating overreach that reverts genuine changes). Similar things have been done (are probably still active against what was happening then), but it'll need some hands-on work to add/extend this.
