 | Please read this before posting about User:RussBot: If the bot moved pages out of one category into another one, it did so because the first category contains a {{Category redirect}} template. The bot did not put that template there; a Commons user did. The bot does not create any category redirects, nor does it have any way of determining whether they are correct or not; that has to be done by humans. If you think the first page should not be a redirect, or should be redirected to some other target, you can either change it yourself, discuss it with the user who put the template there in the first place, or raise the issue through the Commons:Categories for discussion process. |
Russbot wait[edit]
Russbot currently waits 7+1 days for new category redirects. I wonder if this could be shortened to 2+1 days for categories with 5 or few entries. Enhancing999 (talk) 11:09, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
- I'm trying to think of how this would be implemented, and it seems difficult. The number of entries in a category can change from day to day; what happens if it has 100 entries on day 1 but only 3 entries on day 2? Or vice versa? And to the extent there is a problem, it is easily solved by any editor who wants to do so moving the entries to the new category manually (which only takes a few clicks using Cat-a-lot).

- I suppose it would have to check on day 3, but day 1 could be sufficient as I'd assume it decreases.
- The problem with cat-a-lot is that it's somewhat broken when it cames to subcategories. Enhancing999 (talk) 13:09, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
Russbot crash[edit]
The bot didn't go through it's daily run: see Special:Contributions/RussBot, stopping at 09:12 Enhancing999 (talk) 12:50, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, that happens from time to time (relatively frequently). It's usually due to database server errors, not script errors, in which case I just wait for the next daily run. --R'n'B (talk) 12:54, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
- Ok. It worked fine over the last couple of weeks. Enhancing999 (talk) 13:10, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
