I know this page is ancient, but I am hoping some still visit it because this information is priceless in my opinion. Ottawahitech (talk) 01:09, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

Setting up alerts for a task-force
I would like to set up alerts for WikiProject Ottawa which I think is a task-force of wikiProject Canada, Can anyone advise me how to do it? Thanks in advance, Ottawahitech (talk) 01:11, 20 December 2015 (UTC)please ping me

article alert on holiday?
I know many volunteers are too busy this time of year to contriibute, but is ArticleAlertbot also on holiday? Thanks in advance, Ottawahitech (talk) 19:40, 24 December 2015 (UTC)please ping me

Can ArticleAlertbot be run more than once a day?
Just wondering if ArticleAlertbot   can run more often than at 9UTC once a day  because many articles in the various deletion queues are not tagged with relevant wikiproject banners. Once someone tags the talk-page it takes up to 24 hours before the article shows up in article alerts for the wikiprojcect AND many projects still do not have article alerts set up properly which may delay things even further. Most XfDs run for only 7 days, so prompt alerts are vitally important. Ottawahitech (talk)please ping me
