Not archiving as it should
[edit]The bot is only archiving certain important pages, and seems to be only operating between 12:00 and 13:00 (UTC). ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 13:07, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- @AirshipJungleman29: lowercase sigmabot III has never operated continuously, it only runs at certain times of day. I notice that it has archived at least 24 pages after 13:00 (UTC) today. But which pages do you think should have been archived, but weren't? Examples always help: it might be a simple case of there being no threads that are eligible for archiving. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 13:43, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- Seems to have fixed itself, or maybe TheEarwig gave it a kick, but some sections have not been archived on my talk that should have been according to the parameters. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 14:25, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- There are four threads where the most recent timestamp is more than 10 days ago:
- User talk:AirshipJungleman29#GA-related discussion – 18:41, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
- User talk:AirshipJungleman29#About that recent addition to DYKG – 23:51, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
- User talk:AirshipJungleman29#Prep 3 Image – 18:02, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- User talk:AirshipJungleman29#Siege of Baghdad – 01:14, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
- The oldest of these became eligible at 18:41, 1 August 2024 (UTC). lowercase sigmabot III has not visited your talk page since 20:22, 31 July 2024 (UTC), at which point none of those threads were eligible. Next time that it visits, those four threads should be archived. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 15:00, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- The point was that it only archived 26 pages on 2 August, when at least two of the above threads and untold others on other pages were eligible to be archived. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 16:14, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
- @AirshipJungleman29: Well, they're archived now, plus one more. Case closed, I think. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 21:59, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

AfD Stats
[edit]Your page is not updating. Is there something wrong? See here. Bearian (talk) 02:09, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- Same for me here Warm Regards, Miminity (talk) (contribs) 00:18, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
- Oh, then it's not just me ([1]). Note: maybe someone should ping Enterprisey about this, as Σ appears to not have been around for a few weeks. — Alien333 (what I did & why I did it wrong) 15:31, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
Edit Summary Search
[edit]Frequently the Edit Summary Search tool has search problems. For example, this edit summary search did not see edits like Special:Diff/1233301746/1238634077 of which there are over 2,000 with the summary string "WP:URLREQ#fhwa.dot.gov". I tried searching on simplified strings like "fhwa", or changing the date ranges, with no luck. Sometimes it works, like "WP:URLREQ#businessinsider.com.au" can be found with this search. These two searches are almost identical in character, one works the other does not.
- Other searches that are not working include: "WP:URLREQ#nbcnews.com" and "WP:URLREQ#onlinelibrary.wiley.com".
- Other searches that are working include: "WP:URLREQ#msnbc.msn.com" and "WP:URLREQ#slate.msn.com".
Thanks, -- GreenC 15:32, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
- The searches are now working. Not sure if this was due to a change in the software, or a backend delay, such as replication server. -- GreenC 15:53, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
