Whitelist
Hello, I've just finished reading your essay on ClueBot. What standards or criteria must a user have to be added to the whitelist? I would like to try and qualify. (Please respond on my talk page, if possible) --Ye Olde Luke 05:31, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

A suspictious bot
Hey Cobi. Did you happen to create or is it some sort of impostor? I couldn't find the user creation record like you do for your normal bots, so if someone's impersonating one of your bots, please report it to WP:AN/I. Cheers =) -- slakr  \ talk / 06:32, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Is User:Reversionvandalismbot yours? Secretlondon 06:33, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

It's been blocked now. If it was yours, calling it vandalismbot sets off all the warning bells... I'm sure we can rename it to that after it's been approved ;) Secretlondon 06:45, 2 November 2007 (UTC)


 * It is not mine. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.  -- Cobi(t 17:28, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Cluebot IV
The results for this open proxy check don't seem right to me, unless I am not understanding the scope of the bot. Look especially at the DNSRBL section. Also, my nmap check had 1025 and 5000 open, and unless you are actually trying to connect, and declaring it filtered, this makes no sense. The IP is dynamic, but I don't think it changed that quickly. Could you take a look? Prodego talk  17:45, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
 * It actually tries to access Wikipedia through the proxy (using it as a SOCKS4/5 proxy, HTTP GET/POST/CONNECT, Wingate, and default cisco router telnet password). -- Cobi(t 18:33, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Take a look at the RBL links. Prodego  talk  19:27, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
 * I see nothing out of the ordinary. Am I supposed to be seeing something specific?  -- Cobi(t 21:15, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
 * For the first link the bot provided the summary "Nothing". If you click the more info link, the RBL says "59.93.246.96 is listed as an open proxy in dnsbl.njabl.org.". Am I missing something? Prodego  talk  23:19, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
 * The bot checks only a vary small subset of the NJABL list because it contains a bunch of different things, for example, it contains dynamic hosts, SMTP relays, and such. NJABL is not very quick at delisting ip addresses that have been fixed.  Furthermore, an RBL is not the best way to detect open proxies.  -- Cobi(t 01:37, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Of course. I was just wondering the summary it seemed to be in conflict with the page. That you are discriminating between the lists to use the more reliable one is great, and what I wanted to know. Thanks, Prodego  talk  03:13, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

sorry!
My fault! I did not look up whether you're an admin or not when I turned to you/your bot. Sorry for bothering you. ;-) --Fromgermany 05:32, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Who/how to report vandalism?
Hi! I am very impressed with your ClueBot. I logged in to #wikipedia-VAN to watch it in action, it's cool. I often revert vandalism myself on the pages on my watchlist, and sometimes I check the vandal's contributions page to see if he/she has been messing with other pages. I often find multiple incidences of vandalism by these users, and while I can revert their changes, I have no idea to whom I can report their actions or how to go about it. Can you provide any pointers? Thanks! Captain Infinity 15:09, 10 November 2007 (UTC)


 * (replying for him) See WP:UTM for templates with which to warn vandals -- start from level 1 and work your way up to level 4 -- and once they surpass a level 4 warning, report them at WP:AIV. Good luck! Gscshoyru 15:21, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

sorry
i meant to delete ron and the weasleys only because it violated community guidelines. sorry for the mistake. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AgentMichealScarn (talk • contribs) 01:45, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

ClueBot IP false positives
I cleaned up the IP reports section a bit, and found that many IPs ignore the instruction to fill their IP into the header box. I believe they really don't know about that stuff, so I boldly went ahead and tried to make this very clear here. |dorftrottel |talk 17:21, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Also, maybe another point about not forgetting to include the warning would be useful. |dorftrottel |talk 17:23, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Thirdly, I wouldn't want to do this unilaterally, but I think clearer instruction in the preload page User:ClueBot/FalsePositives/IPInputInit might work wonders. I'd replace the current instructions with something along the lines of the following:

Would it be allowed for me to clone your original ClueBot? If the answer is yes, where would I put the information, what would I need? Thanks in advance! &lt; DREAMAFTER &gt; &lt; TALK &gt; 22:34, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
 * It would be allowed. However, there shouldn't be anti-vandal bots racing each other on the same wiki, so please don't run it on Wikipedia, or on Wikia.  Also, Wikipedia's Bot Approval Group will not approve it to run if it will just be racing ClueBot.  You need to give credit as ClueBot is released under the GPL.  Furthermore, you will need a Linux server, preferably your own, as opposed to a shell account.  ClueBot also needs PHP and MySQL.  If you are unsure as to what to do with the source, you probably shouldn't be running a ClueBot clone on any wiki.  Thanks.  -- Cobi(t 22:40, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
