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. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- ForteTuba 14:22, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

My RfA
Hi, E, and thanks for your participation in my RfA. I've withdrawn it, and will be writing up an "analysis" of it, which will soon be available at User:Giggy/RfA/Giggy when it's done. Please come around when you get the chance, and give me feedback on how I can improve. Thanks again, Giggy  UCP 04:23, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

Eddie has given you a mollusk! Mollusks somehow promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by giving something friendly to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Make your own message to spread WikiLove to others! Happy editing! -- Boricua  e  ddie  02:29, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:Windows98.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:Windows98.gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 06:25, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

That bot is brilliant!
Amazing! From what it looks like, the bot will make things a thousand times easier on the Abuse reports. Awesome job with it. --HAL2008 talk 18:31, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

On Barnstar creation
I am wondering how you went about the creation of a barnstar image. Are there template images out there I can use for size referencing, etc? - Arcayne   (cast a spell)  18:29, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

EBot2
Hi. I'm not sure if it's working properly. It's not archiving the wrong reports, but it looks like it isn't archiving some that have been closed. I can see a number of closed reports on Suspected sock puppets, specifically:

User:Hearsayheresy User:Godzilla1138 User:DJVaccar User:Eir Witt User:Bob Lee Swagger User:Fadix

Could you see what's making the bot not archive them and/or archive those manually? Cheers, John Smith&#39;s 11:33, 16 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Ok, they were taken care of by User:Akhilleus. However he commented the bot seemed to be slow - so I think there is something that needs tweaking. John Smith&#39;s 20:13, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Helperbot Code Update
Good morning! I just wanted to let you know that I've updated the HBC AIV Helperbot source with version 2.0.8, and you will want to update your bot at your convenience. This version fixes a small issue that came up with indef blocks due to a change in the formatting of Special:Ipblocklist. Let me know if you have any problems. Thanks! —Krellis (Talk) 12:22, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

EBot Task2
Hi E, I noticed that you recently used AWB for a bot to replace Infobox Band with Infobox musical artist. I am also interested in using AWB to design similar bots in the future so is it possible that I have a look at your AWB setup file that you used to achieve this task? Thanks, take care --Kudret abi 02:54, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
