SoxBot IRC stalking
Hey X! We could use some of SoxBot's love at #pediapress. We had a similar bot in the past doing some linking work, but it was recently taken down. So I though about your bot, which I first saw in ##juliancolton. I tried to see if there was a way to set it up on my own, but I couldn't find it, so here I am. The desired behaviour would be:
 * Wikilinker
 * Stalk users
 * User talk:Headbomb
 * User talk:He!ko
 * User talk:Jbeigel
 * User talk:Notafish
 * User talk:Schmir
 * User talk:Volker.haas


 * Stalk pages
 * Help:Books + talk
 * Help:Books/for experts + talk
 * Help:Books/Frequently Asked Questions + talk
 * Help:Books/Feedback + talk
 * Books + talk
 * WikiProject Wikipedia-Books + talk


 * Give notices whenever a page in the book namespace (Book:Foobar) is created, but not for subsequent edits made to that page.

This would help us immensely, so I can throw you a coupon for a free book of your choice if you could help us set this up. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 08:23, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

created pages counter
your tool seems to summarize created redirects and created non-redirects, if theres not at least one created page (or redirect) between them. could you possibly fix that (or am i getting something wrong?) ? regards, --Itsnotuitsme (talk) 19:43, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

A little help please
Hi.

Excuse me, i don`t quite get the message in the counter about the monthly edits, you say something about creating username/EditCounterOptIn.js with any content, i do that (preview, not saved) and nothing appears, what am i doing wrong? Zidane tribal (talk) 00:55, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
 * You need to save it. Once you have done that, if you go to the counter, you should see the monthly figures. (For my OptIn, I just have // Opt in to X!s new edit counter as a comment). Try saving it, and come back here if you have problems. --  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 10:29, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
 * All set. Thanks a lot. Zidane tribal (talk) 04:18, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

Adminstats/Adminbars requests
Is it possible to add a timestamp onto the Adminstats:

which would give something like: Updated 04:38, 3 May 2010 (UTC) by 

For Adminbars, is it possible for you to add it as a task to SoxBot - it uses the same figures generated for Adminstats anyway - it's only the first and last lines that are different (these are the current versions of Adminstats/Phantomsteve and Adminbars/Phantomsteve - pink shows differences, green shows the same lines):

...and if the Adminbars could have the timestamp added as well, that would be nice! --  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 10:29, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

Bot goof up
This edit is clearly inaccurate. Presumably related to the new WikiCup round starting: either the page is formatted slightly differently or the bot's code was confused by the new, smaller contestant list. --ThaddeusB (talk) 13:23, 3 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I was coming here to say the same thing. There's some discussion at WT:CUP. — Ed   (talk  •  majestic titan)  07:00, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

little bug in edit counter
In your edit counter, I looked up my username edits, and I clicked in the "username" link at the top of the result page. The link is broken because it sends me to "User:Enric+Naval" instead of "User:Enric_Naval". ("+" instead of "_") --Enric Naval (talk) 22:02, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

MPUploadBot
For some reason, MPUploadBot is not saving the information/license/ correctly on several files, the most recent of which I believe is File:Lamprotornis hildebrandti -Tanzania-8-2c.jpg. Not sure if this can be averted?  • ɔ   ʃ   →  04:08, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, I see this has been noted already above. Any solutions (and back) yet?  • ɔ   ʃ   →  04:09, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

New edit counter
Hello X!

I like the new edit counter, but I really miss the section that has stats of actions such as Pages Patrolled, Users Blocked, and Articles Deleted. If you would restore that section, I would be forever in your debt. Regards, --The High Fin Sperm Whale 20:18, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

WikiCup/History/2010
The bot is counting one DYK, one GA and one FL for everyone. At first I thought it was because of spaces on the submissions' pages, but I removed them and the problem hasn't been resolved. Help? J Milburn (talk) 09:25, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

SoxBot
Just a note that SoxBot reported a username has having edited, even though there are no edits (deleted or otherwise). Thanks! TN X Man 13:46, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

Why did you delete Run Doris Run?
I am planning on making a page for them. Why did you delete the prvious one? Also, can I access some of the content for use in the new page? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bbukr (talk • contribs) 18:49, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
 * X! is on a break from Wikipedia for a little bit, so I will respond! The article Run Doris Run was not deleted by, but by at 00:07, 28 April 2006 as the article was about a band but did not give any indication of why they were important or significant. No article Run Doris Run? has ever been created. I did a bit of searching, and cannot find significant coverage at reliable, independent sources about the band - all I could find were either minor coverage (such as their name listed along with other band names playing at places, but no details about the band itself) or press releases (which are not independent). If you have some reliable and independent sources which show that the band meet the criteria for inclusion, please contact me on my talk page (just click on 'talk' in my signature), and I can give further advice about creating this article. --  Phantom Steve / talk &#124; contribs \ 14:35, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

Bots
Could you please help me set up a bot/ teach me how. I would really like to know. I already know a lot of code. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 1234r00t (talk • contribs)

I have translated this edit counter to Turkish. But there is no changes on interface. Please could you activate my translation. Thank you. Bekiroflaz (talk) 21:07, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

Your Input Requested
There is a discussion taking place here concerning the Edit Counter that you programed. Any information that you can provide would be greatly appreciated.—NBahn (talk) 04:13, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

edit counter uses a Russian interface on me
I access the editcounter at "/ec" and it sends me to "/pc", which is apparently in Russian or something. I use Firefox 3.5.9, and the preferred languages are set to "ca", "en" and "en-us" (in that order). I have the same problem in IE7, with languages "en-US" and "es". --Enric Naval (talk) 14:46, 19 May 2010 (UTC)


 * It's doing the same for me, but no, pcount is the new edit counter. Just the title bar and the word "User:" are in some other language set. Wonder why? {&#123; Sonia &#124;talk&#124;simple}&#125; 06:13, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
 * What is the original /ec/ link you're going to? ( X! ·  talk )  · @463  · 10:06, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
 * No idea, but... here's a printscreen (if you need it.) {&#123; Sonia &#124;talk&#124;simple}&#125; 10:37, 20 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Fixed, it was caused by a Russian translation I added to the English file by accident. ( X! ·  talk )  · @488  · 10:43, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
