CorenSearchBot bug
It complained about freshwater withdrawal at User_talk:Rajah, both the article and the putative source webpage are sourced from a public domain source: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/fields/2202.html. Maybe have the bot check for source references from .gov sites on putative source pages? Thanks! --Rajah (talk) 06:09, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

Ashes Series 1954-55 and 1958-59
I am separating my articles England cricket team in Australia 1954-55 and English cricket team in Australia 1958-59 as they were too long and created 1954-55 Ashes series and 1958-59 Ashes series, there was some confusion for the bot as I cut and pasted one article from another while keeping the text on the old one. I plan to do the same for England team in Australia 1970-71 and 1970-71 Ashes series.--Philipjelley (talk) 09:27, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

The CorenSearchBot is is error in pointing to the site is has as the source of the text. That site had in fact taken the text from the MCAs own website.

User:Tajik
, a very racist, controversial and disruptive editor with long history of blocks, is still vandalizings pages of groups of people he doesn't like, he's edit-warring, he uses sockpuppets and annon IPs to curse, abuse, attack, insult, and offend people of other races. Here he is cursing at other editors and also adding in the article that the mother of a politician in Afghanistan was raped by ethnic Tajiks He did the recent vandalisms on Kabul, Afghan (name), Abdullah Abdullah (politician), Talk:Jamal-al-Din_Afghani, Sher Shah Suri, and others. He is constantly editing articles pertaining to Afghanistan and its people with very negative view. By trying to evade from admins, he first edits with his usual user name and then vandalizeand edit-war with a set of IP # but all appear to be in the same location in Germany where he lives. He and the IPs share the same view, always refusing to accept Afghanistan's existance in the 18th century, , giving Tajiks a good name and the people that he hates (the Pashtuns) a very negative image almost every page he visits. He is trying to change Afghanistan into Iran and remove the Pashto language from every article, which is the one of the official languages of the country. I'm pretty sure he is using those IPs and socks, he is trying to change his writings when he uses IPs to fool admins.119.73.1.41 (talk) 00:47, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

The Roland Kirk Quartet Meets the Benny Golson Orchestra
What a speedy bot you have - it picked up a similarity with a web page that only has the track listing for this album.

Home of heroes
Thanks for trying but again the home of heroes site is not subject to copyright because all the data is contained on government sources and repackaged. I know that your bot catches a lot of copyright problems but I have as I have mentioned time and again this info isn't subject to copyright. I admit I put the "tag" but I SOULDN'T NEED TOO. Since I have mentioned this nicely and rudely, every time corenbot erroneously spams my talk page with the copyright tags I will just return the favor notify you. My recommendation would be to add logic or something that skips the HOH site. Cheers and happy spamming. --Kumioko (talk) 01:21, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Notice On CorenSearchBot
I just recently published an article on the King Genet and received a notice about the copyright violention. I wrote the article myself and used sources from the World Conservation Union. The source your bot suggested that I was violenting was http://pandapedia.com/w/index.php?title=King_Genet&action=edit&redlink=1 This website is a Wikipedia minor and is stated so at the bottom of the article page.

Good day to you sir, Thanks for fixing corenbot to stop identifying home of heroes as a copyright vio everytime I create a new Medal of Honor recipient page. Unfortunately, now I am getting http://www.combatleadership.com/Heroes_Results.asp?MedalID=591 as a copyvio. The text displayed here is exactly what is displayed in the Army Center of Military History site so therefore is not subject to copyright. Could you please add this site to the list of sites not to count. At least for Medal of Honor citations anyway. --Kumioko (talk) 00:20, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

It does look as though the article on actual fish probably are though&mdash; but that's a good reason to remove the tag, not for not tagging at all:  the act of removing the tag is positive acknowledgment that a human being has reviewed the copy and found it okay.  &mdash; Coren (talk) 12:19, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Borg
Yes, fair point. I understand the double bind you guys face in terms of "secret" discussions. I'm sorry for the tone of my post; to be honest, I should probably just unwatchlist the case pages at this point since everything that can be said (by me, at least) has been said. In the past, I've noticed that cases which enter a phase like the current one often close with admonishments and other relatively minor remedies, presumably because the stasis reflects a serious division of opinion on the proper course and the admonishments represent an acceptable compromise. In this case I feel like that would be a poor outcome, for the reasons I (somewhat testily) put forward in my post. I've also sometimes watched a case reach a conclusion with which I disagreed, and then wished I'd spoken up during the case - I say that just to explain my continued posting. Anyhow, sorry for the tone of the post. Obviously, your explanation is both simpler and more rational than mine, and I don't think I have very much new to add to that case. I'll leave it in your (collective) hands. Happy editing. :) MastCell Talk 16:48, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
