Anomie is still around, mostly to maintain AnomieBOT. But after the WMF proved that office politics are more important to them than seemingly anything else, and otherwise generally seem more concerned with their own image than substance, Anomie is not engaging in technical work on MediaWiki.
Despite T360488 asking them not to, Toolforge admins have gone ahead and broken AnomieBOT's scripts. Keeping things running properly will likely require manual intervention until they fix that or give me a usable workaround.
AnomieBOT is not a human editor.
It is a computer program (a bot) that makes repetitive edits that would be extremely tedious for a human to do manually.
If you are here because you think AnomieBOT added {{citation needed}} or another maintenance tag to an article, please check again. AnomieBOT only added the current date to a maintenance tag added by another editor in a previous edit.
If you are here because you think AnomieBOT III deleted an article, please check again. AnomieBOT III deletes redirects when someone else deletes the article the redirect pointed to, and you almost certainly want to talk to that person instead.
If you are here because AnomieBOT added {{old AfD multi}} when the old AfD was about a different person with the same name, just remove it. The bot has no way to tell whether it's the same person or a different one.
If you are here because AnomieBOT did something wrong when substituting a template, bring it up on the template talk page instead. The problem is almost certainly with the template's output when substed, not the bot.
If you are here to report a bug, please be sure to give a specific description of the problem, including diff links. See How to Report Bugs Effectively for more advice.
Live status for all AnomieBOT tasks is available at Toolforge.
Please watch this page for replies. If you would like Anomie to use {{ping}} to notify you, please say so (a <!-- comment --> is fine for that purpose).
Talk pages are where people discuss how to make content on Wikipedia the best that it can be. You can use this page to start a discussion with others about how to improve the "User:AnomieBOT/Editnotice" page.
