See this. Not a major thing, no action need be taken (it already has), just something to file away in your mental filing cabinet. BOZ (talk) 20:03, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Have a nice day! ;) --Liso (talk) 18:25, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, could you translate what they mean here http://tr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikipedi:Botlar#Kullan.C4.B1c.C4.B1:Kyle_the_bot Thank you in advance :) --Kyle the hacker (talk) 21:53, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- They got ticked off by the word "hacker" in your username. He says he can't trust such a username. -- Cat chi? 13:42, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you very much :) --Kyle the hacker (talk) 18:02, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Dear user White Cat, i've noticed that on your userpage you have a list of countries that u're "not sure" if u want to visit them. Assuming that the list was compiled on the basis of personal and general safety to the tourist, i want to recommend to you to drop at least 4 of the 12 countries that are listed there
The countries that i'm talking about are Israel, Cuba, Jordan and Saudi Arabia.
these countries are recommended by me to be dropped because i know for a fact on at least two of them, that these countries are not dangerous for tourists and are actually very pleasent to be toured. Please consider my recommendation --Oren neu dag (talk) 22:06, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not sure you're aware of this, but any religion besides Islam is prohibited in Saudi Arabia. If you want to perform your religion's rituals, you must do it in your own home in complete privacy (that is allowed), or you'll be considered as a moral corruptor. Siúnrá (talk) 11:22, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I placed these countries under "not sure to go" under the basis of my preference to travel not safety. I am not saying I wont go there, all I am saying is they are not high on priority in my list to go. For example if there is a wikimania in one of those countries, I would go without a second thought. -- Cat chi? 17:23, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- Well, in that case... thank u for explaining me on what basis was the list compiled. --Oren neu dag (talk) 19:04, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I think the White Cat is not a real person, but a group of people. Like Shakespeare. Siúnrá (talk) 11:23, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Thy shall know I as a mere cat. For I am just a mere cat. -- Cat chi? 17:26, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- hey white cat.. psst... don't anybody that i told u, but Siúnrá (as the user himself admits) means cat in Aramaic.
- Do we have a Catfight here grrr!!--Oren neu dag (talk) 22:45, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. It seems that your bot was working while not logged in on Arabic Wikipedia. Please fix this. --Meno25 (talk) 21:20, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Before you posted this here I identified and resolved the problem. Problem was related to calibration of the bot's username (bot's username recently changed on some wikis). While a block of the bot is no big deal, please do not block on the first sign of a problem - especially if the bot isn't doing something absurd. Block of the bot increases my workload. For example, your block has completely crashed all running interwiki processes. I was only interwiki linking my userpage and bot userpage (to make sure everything worked). -- Cat chi? 04:21, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
I've renamed the account. – Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs) 08:27, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi White Cat,
I would like to know whether you would be interested to help with administration at WP:ANIME, as we will be reassessing all of the articles within the Wikiproject's scope for a few items, this will follow the same format as Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment/Tag & Assess 2008. (See WP:ANIME/ASSESS#Assessment drive for initial discussions—I have asked another editor to create the sub-pages for us.) I am aware that you are not on the best of terms with some of the editors there, but hope that you will consider helping anyway (Personally, I have deep respect for you—and I am asking as I believe you could provide valuable help).
You could also consider helping at peer review, or A class assessment (To be implimented shortly), or if you are up for hard work, at the cleanup task force.
Sincerely
G.A.S 07:19, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Your bot has lately started making some fairly useless edits, like this one. You might want to tweak the code. --Russ (talk) 15:05, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The above link is no longer valid because the page was deleted. Basically what happened was that the bot found a page containing "{{db-r1}}<br>#REDIRECT [[Target]]" and changed it to the same text without the line break. (I use <br> here to show where a line break character existed, not a literal <br> HTML tag.) Since this only happens on pages that your bot has already tagged for speedy deletion, it's going to be a problem finding a diff link that won't disappear within minutes! --Russ (talk) 15:26, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- It may have removed an invisible char. I can't really investigate as you also point out the page is deleted... -- Cat chi? 08:10, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
- OK, here's one that won't disappear (I hope): [1]. Note that the bot first added the {{db-r1}} and then 12 seconds later made a second edit removing a single character. This pattern seems to occur whenever the bot finds a self-linked redirect. (On a separate note, I query whether it is desirable to tag these for speedy deletion without first warning the person who created the redirect, since many of these self-links, like this one, are just typos that can easily be corrected.) --Russ (talk) 16:16, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Self redirects are a navigation hazard. It is best to remove them on sight. If necesary the proper redirect can be recreated. As for the bug I have pointed it out to the devs. -- Cat chi? 17:13, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
