Les Misérables, cleaner bot issue
Hi. Your bot thing has reverted my edit on Les Misérables (2012 film), thus reinstating the problem I fixed. If you check Category:Films based on Les Misérables, you'll see the 2012 film now appears - again - as the first of the films, with all the earlier ones coming later. Clearly, this is chronologically indefensible. We need to change the defaultsorts of all the other articles, or fix just this one. My solution was the most parsimonious one. If you insist on technical correctness, you must now do the work with all the other articles. Or reinstate my edit. Your choice. Over to you. -- Jack of Oz   [pleasantries]  23:11, 16 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi @JackofOz. I'm sorry, but where did you see that my bot reverted your edit ? Your edit was reverted by User:Joeyconnick according to the history. NicoV (Talk on frwiki) 08:04, 17 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Oops. My mistake. Apologies. :) -- Jack of Oz   [pleasantries]  08:50, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Tina Kennard inaccurate synopsis
Hi. Your bot is repeatedly reverting my edits to the Tina Kennard page and providing an inaccurate synopsis about her character arc in The L Word and The L Word Generation Q. I have repeatedly changed the article to what really happened and have provided numerous sources to back it up, but every time, the bot reverts it to the version where it portrays Bette and Tina's narcissist/battered woman relationship as a "strong bond" and sugarcoats the rape scene as break-up sex. Can something be done? I've opened a topic on the talk page but I have a feeling the bot will just ignore it and revert it. Thanks. 2A02:C7C:84CC:9F00:A894:731B:CD11:C9EB (talk) 14:27, 21 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi. Please look at the page history rather than accusing me of something... My bot is simply putting references after punctuation, which is the correct way on enwiki, cf WP:REFPUNCT. NicoV (Talk on frwiki) 15:40, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Simon Weston's Father
Adding information about Simon Weston's father, David Weston, is highly relevant to this article. Simon discussed the estranged relationship with his father in his autobiography, and understanding these events provides crucial context to his personal story. These details shed light on significant personal challenges he faced, enhancing the reader's understanding of Simon's life and resilience. The inclusion is well-sourced and maintains a neutral tone, adhering to Wikipedia's guidelines. Johnlivingstone86 (talk) 20:44, 7 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi @Johnlivingstone86. Why are you telling me this ? NicoV (Talk on frwiki) 06:33, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

WikiCleanerBot not respecting Template:Bots?
Hello, thank you for maintaining this bot. There is an article, List of Glagolitic inscriptions (16th century), with complex syntax. Am I incorrectly using the template to deny WikiCleanerBot or is WikiCleanerBot not compliant? Ivan (talk) 08:15, 9 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi @Иованъ. The bot is partially compliant, it avoids editing articles with some templates (GOCEinuse, Inuse, In use, Nobots), but it doesn't understand the bots template. If it's only for the comma moved before the reference, maybe you can try a nowiki tag between them. NicoV (Talk on frwiki) 15:42, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
 * The page size is already large. The number of nowiki tags needed will grow. Could you make your bot exclusion compliant instead? Ivan (talk) 19:59, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi @Иованъ. My bot should now avoid editing pages with bots which has a deny parameter set. NicoV (Talk on frwiki) 11:19, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you, sir! Ivan (talk) 11:22, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

CHECKWIKI/WPC 092 dump
Hello!

Can you make your bot ignore colons  to fix double headers such as in File:200 hundred mill.jpg. Jonteemil (talk) 17:11, 24 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi @Jonteemil. Thanks for the idea! I modified WPCleaner to do that and ran my bot on the Files. NicoV (Talk on frwiki) 21:17, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Perfect. Do you thinks edits like Special:Diff/1232042273, Special:Diff/1232042140 and Special:Diff/1232043027 can be automated as well? I suppose it would be a bit harder to code but not impossible I guess? Jonteemil (talk) 16:58, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi @Jonteemil. Well, I fear that the difficult part is how to avoid incorrect modifications :
 * For the first and third diff, it's easy but there's a risk when some parts of the section should also be removed (partial duplicate)
 * For the second diff, it makes text go into another section, so risky I think
 * NicoV (Talk on frwiki) 06:48, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I understand, thanks anyway for your work. Jonteemil (talk) 17:16, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
