Bot wars
Cluebot III has been reverting itself two to four times daily on four pages since (or on the first one nearly since) their creations: It also seems to be doing the same, though less frequently, on: at which point I stopped manually checking. More pages here.
 * User:ClueBot III/Indices/User talk:Ekuftle (history) since July 2021
 * User:ClueBot III/Master Detailed Indices/User talk:CapnJackSp (history) since March 2022
 * User:ClueBot III/Indices/User talk:CapnJackSp (history) also since March 2022
 * User:ClueBot III/Indices/User talk:Timothytyy (history) since 8 October 2023
 * User:ClueBot III/Indices/User talk:Brachy0008 (history)
 * User:ClueBot III/Master Detailed Indices/User talk:Brachy0008 (history)
 * User:ClueBot_III/Indices/User talk:Re Packer&Tracker (history)
 * User:ClueBot III/Master Detailed Indices/User talk:Re Packer&Tracker (history)
 * User:ClueBot III/Indices/User talk:Reading Beans (history)
 * User:ClueBot III/Indices/User talk:Ronherry (history) since September 2021
 * User:ClueBot III/Master Detailed Indices/User talk:Ronherry (history) since September 2021
 * User:ClueBot III/Indices/User talk:Vanderwaalforces (history); User:Vanderwaalforces has been trying to fight it here
 * User:ClueBot III/Master Detailed Indices/User talk:Vanderwaalforces (history); ditto

Although these pages are in its own userspace and so it's technically allowed to do this, surely this isn't intended behavior. —Cryptic 19:09, 26 October 2023 (UTC)


 * @Cryptic thank you so much! I actually reported this earlier but I guess nothing changed. I am even tired of fighting with a bot, lol. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 19:14, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Those first 4 all appear to be suffering from the same issue, which is that there are 2 instances of with different targets. I've gone ahead and fixed those pages which should hopefully stop the bot from self-fighting. I have yet to fully look at the other instances, but User:ClueBot III/Indices/User talk:Brachy0008 is failing because the   value at User talk:Brachy0008 is malformed, and the bot tends to cause all sorts of bugs like this or this when given bad values.

Toolforge Grid Engine shutdown
I saw your bot on a list of bots that still use Grid. Grid is getting sunset soon, and everyone is supposed to upgrade to wikitech:Help:Toolforge/Jobs framework. Code updates will probably be required to keep your bot working. Please see Village pump (technical) for more details. Hope this helps. Happy editing. – Novem Linguae (talk) 16:59, 30 November 2023 (UTC)


 * CBNG is using Kube, is this is regards to CB3? - Rich T&#124;C&#124;E-Mail 23:45, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
 * This is in regards to the Toolforge accounts cluebotng and cluebotng-review. Looking more closely at https://grid-deprecation.toolforge.org/, looks like the two cluebotng grid jobs still running are backup_database and prune_backups. The cluebotng-review grid jobs still running are named cron-mysql-prune, cron-review-import, cron-report-import, cron-training-import, and cron-update-stats. Perhaps these aren't the main bot but are some supporting tools and processes? Anyway, I hope this notification helps! – Novem Linguae (talk) 00:56, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
 * I got them, the cluebotng ones are moved.. the review ones I'll do later - Rich T&#124;C&#124;E-Mail 01:01, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Groovy. Thanks! – Novem Linguae (talk) 01:03, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
