Double redirects via your bot
I noticed AvicBot is fixing double redirects, and in looking up whether I was boneheaded or not (I am) I noticed it's not on this list of bots that fix double redirects - you may wish to fill out its entry at your convenience. -- stillnotelf   is invisible  18:40, 22 April 2013 (UTC)

Lac a Hache, British Columbia -> Lac la Hache, British Columbia

Uklanjanje bot zastavice / Removal of bot flag
(Bosanski) Želim da vas obavijestim da je se na bs.wiki donijela odluka da se uklone bot zastavice kod neaktivnih i/ili interwiki botova. Vaš bot spada u najmanje jednu od ove dvije kategorije. Ova odluka je donešena zbog zbivanja oko Wikidata koje je dovelo do toga da su interwiki botovi postali nepotrebni. Ako želite da zadržite vašu bot zastavicu onda možete podnijeti taj zahtjev ovdje sa dodatnim informacijama o poslovima koje bi bot obavljao i na koji nacin. Imajte na umu da ovo treba da bude konkretan i koristan posao za zajednicu da bi se zastavica zadržala. Ako imate bilo kakvih pitanja kontaktirajte me na mojoj stranici za razgovor. Ukoliko ne reagujete na ovu poruku će se uklanjanje zastavice izvršiti nakon nekoliko sedmica. Međutim, uvijek ste dobrodošli da podnesete novi zahtjev za bot zastavicu.

(English) I want to inform you that on bs.wiki there has been a voting that resulted in accepting the removal of bot flags for inactive and/or interwiki bots. Your bot has been identified to meet at least one of these criteria. This decision has been made due to the new developments with Wikidata by which all interwiki bots have become unnecessary. If you want to keep your bot flag, then please report that here by indicating what new task your bot will be performing and how this will be done. Note however that this has to be a concrete and useful task for the community before it will be accepted. If you have any questions, please let me know on my talk page. In case of no response, the removal of the bot flag will be performed within a few weeks from now. However, after that period you are always welcome to file a new request for a bot flag.

AvicBot and redirects from userspace
This is a feature request, not a bug report; I've not spotted any misbehavior. The "How to use sandbox" section of Teahouse/Questions has a question regarding a userspace sandbox: a page was created in userspace, moved to AFC space, moved to mainspace, and AvicBot correctly fixed the double redirect. Is there any way to tell the bot not to fix double redirects from userspace to mainspace, since confusion can arise for new users? Nyttend (talk) 04:28, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
 * should do it. There are other bots that fix redirects, though, so might be better. Avic ennasis  @ 04:54, 28 Iyar 5773 / 04:54, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 12:37, 8 May 2013 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.

IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.

Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.

Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:


 * Views/Day : Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
 * Quality : Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.

The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:


 * Content : Is more content needed?
 * Headings : Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
 * Images : Is the number of illustrative images about right?
 * Links : Does this article link to enough other Wikipedia articles?
 * Sources : For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians.

Left of Center (song)
Greetings. Please change the redirect on Left of Center (song) from Left of Center (Sirius) to Left of center, because: I have attempted to fix this myself, only to be undone. So I try this route.... -- Hooperswim (talk) 21:17, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) The Sirius page is about a radio station, not a song;
 * 2) The Sirius page is mentioned on the disambiguation that is Left of center;
 * 3) There are at least two actual songs called "Left of Center" with references already (Suzanne Vega, Serj Tankian)
 * 4) It could probably be argued successfully that the Sirius station was named because of the Suzanne Vega song.
 * ✅ Redirects can be repointed easily - but you shouldn't point a redirect at a redirect, which is why AvicBot fixed it again. this edit should solve the problem and show the difference. <sup style="color:red;">Avic <sub style="color:blue;">ennasis @ 05:17, 14 Tamuz 5773 / 05:17, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, copy this code:, paste it in the edit box at this link , click "Save", and an administrator will place the undeleted submission in your user space.

AvicBot: Talk:St Jude's Anglican Church
The bot has twice reversed my redirect (for the talk page but not the article). There is no double redirect, something seems to have gone wrong with the bot. In the mean time I have blanked the page - the Talk page is empty anyway. Thanks.--Mhockey (talk) 14:51, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * This edit by you points the page to Talk:St Jude's Church which itself is a redirect to Talk:St Jude's Church, Kensington. There is no problem with the bot. <sup style="color:red;">Avic <sub style="color:blue;">ennasis @ 21:27, 15 Tamuz 5773 / 21:27, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I see the problem now - actually two problems. 1.  My redirect should have been to Talk:St. Jude's Church, not Talk:St Jude's Church.  2. After an old move of St Jude's Church the original page was correctly redirected to the dab page here, but the original Talk page was not redirected, so it was left as a redirect to the wrong page.  Now if someone could do a bot to check that talk pages follow article pages...--Mhockey (talk) 23:12, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

AvicBot and BLP
Please see this contribution page:. This was used to attack a politician at 2013-06-15T17:56:13. The edit was reverted at 2013-06-15T18:53:57. But by 2013-06-15T18:44:19, AvicBot was spreading the BLP violation.

It is my technical understanding, perhaps flawed, that double redirects are entirely ok. So would it be possible to not "fix" a double redirect until at least 24 hours has elapsed? Thank you, Unscintillating (talk) 21:23, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

Scouting images
AvicAWB tagged a number of Scouting images with Non-free logo that already used non-free Scout logo. Since undefined was not set on Non-free logo, all these images are now in the categories Non-free images with NFUR stated Non-free images for NFUR review. --  Gadget850talk 10:53, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

AvicBot bug report
This edit of AvicBot has replaced a perfectly correct redirect to an article by a buggy redirect to a dab page, asserting that the old redirect was a double redirect, which was wrong. D.Lazard (talk) 17:10, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
 * No bug - the page Axiom (computer algebra system) was a redirect, briefly, per this edit. At the time AvicBot made his edit, the page was a double-redirect. AvicCar.svg 00:29, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
