User talk:Some Gadget Geek/2015/September

Help me!
I never made any edits to Turkish Wikipedia but someone put this on my talk page at Turkish Wikipedia! I can't explain what has happened, so how can I avoid getting into more trouble?

Thank you gratefully!

 * It's a welcome message. Don't worry about it. Rotideypoc41352 (talk) 18:42, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

Clearly it was a welcome message, but it's presenting me with big worries. For I have never remembered making a single edits on that particular edition of Wikipedia, constructive or not. How can I check to see if any anonymous user has got access to my account? Maybe it could have been hacked? &#60;&#60;&#60; SOME GADGET GEEK &#62;&#62;&#62; (talk) 22:40, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, you can see all your global contributions here. Your account has not edited Turkish Wikipedia; the bot must be just welcoming all new users, or some subset of new users. Howicus (Did I mess up?) 22:54, 7 September 2015 (UTC)

Oh, it's a "welcome-bot"? That's a cool thing they have down there! But how come it welcomes even users who haven't even done anything? Can't we re-program the bot such that it posts welcome messages only when a new user makes edits? Better still, make it tell between constructive and disruptive edits and post appropriate messages and warnings (like ClueBot NG does to some extent? &#60;&#60;&#60; SOME GADGET GEEK &#62;&#62;&#62; (talk) 00:27, 8 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Technically it's definitely possible to have the bot only greet users who have made edits, and it might be possible (though much more complicated) to add vandalism-detection capabilities and have the bot respond to the quality of the edits, but that's obviously not the route the Turkish Wikipedia has chosen, and since the different Wikipedias are independent, the English Wikipedia has no control over the Turkish greeter bot. You could try and contact the bot's operator on the Turkish Wikipedia to make those suggestions. Huon (talk) 00:36, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

Well, I've posted on the user's talk page on the English wiki cause I don't understand Turkish. Is this the right place, or should I have posted on his Turkish talk page instead? &#60;&#60;&#60; SOME GADGET GEEK &#62;&#62;&#62; (talk) 02:27, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
 * In my opinion, it's best to continue this conversation with ; if he doesn't respond within a half hour or so after you put up a, go ahead and use helpme. I dream of horses If you reply here, please ping me by adding  to your message. (talk to me) (contributions) @  02:51, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry, didn't see this earlier. My advice would be to add a short note to his Turkish talk page to let him know that he has a message on the English talk page - he was last active on the English Wikipedia in September 2014 and might easily miss a message posted here.

Your bot on Turkish Wikipedia is unnecessarily welcoming new users!
Good day to you, ,

Your bot on Turkish Wikipedia has posted welcome messages to users who haven't even made a single contribution to the encyclopedia, such as me (if you click here, you will see clearly that I have had no activity on the Turkish wiki). Isn't that a waste of resources? Maybe you just want your bot to get the most edits out of any bot on MediaWiki? If so, I suggest that you modify your bot to only welcome users who have actually made edits to articles and the such, if not restrict such welcomes to only those who are making constructive edits? That would be a much better purpose than simply posting random unnecessary messages.

Thanks for your consideration, &#60;&#60;&#60; SOME GADGET GEEK &#62;&#62;&#62; (talk) 01:00, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi, There are very few active users in tr.wiki we are not active like en.wiki, and my main purpose is gain new users to tr.wikipedia. A lot of new users in tr.wiki are afraid to edit pages and when i send welcome message, a mail is sending to user and when user read this new welcome message user probably start his first edits. This because why am i send all of new users to tr.wiki. This welcome message is say user "you are new and wiki is editing by new users not by editors, so you can start edit without fear" shortly. I think it's very important for gain new users. What do you think now :) should i stop not not? Kumul (talk) 20:38, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

Netherlands (terminology)
Should we marge Netherlands (terminology) with Netherlands (disambiguation)? Sure, to my point of view, that would be better. I don't know how to do it.--Io Herodotus (talk) 12:41, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
