MCBot

Hello again, xeno. Can you grant IPBE and reviewer to my bot to allow it to edit? I was redirected to you from my BRFA. Thanks. Cheers, —mc10 (t/c) 22:12, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Commented there. –xeno^talk 17:59, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

For You!

		The Admin's Barnstar
		I award You this Administrator Barnstar for performing Your administrative duties above and beyond! Mbz1 (talk) 18:16, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

		The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
		I award You this barnstar for Your kindness and understanding! Mbz1 (talk) 18:16, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the above. Regards, SunCreator ^(talk) 19:51, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

		The Barnstar of Awesomeness
		To the Canadian that always gives 100%. Your helpfulness, advice, assistance and boting on Wikipedia makes it a better place for everyone. Regards, SunCreator ^(talk) 19:51, 13 January 2011 (UTC) [reply]

Thanks both, for providing evidence that thankless work is not always as such =) –xeno^talk 19:53, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bot deny

I added to an editors talk page (at editors requested) {{bots|deny=SineBot}} yet the bot still edited the talk page. Is User:SineBot not deny complying or is my deny request incorrect in some way? Regards, SunCreator ^(talk) 17:39, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That seems to prevent SineBot signing posts on that page, but not prevent it issuing warnings. Seems like that might be considered suboptimal, so you might want to drop Slakr (talk · contribs) a note and ask if he can let users opt-out of the warnings as well. –xeno^talk 18:05, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Inherit class as custom module?

You gave me once a settings file to inherit classes from templates. These settings use Advanced Find and replace. Do you happen to have this as a custom module? I could add it in my "WikiProject Biography general fixes" custom module. -- Magioladitis (talk) 17:53, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mag. Sorry, I don't know how to do custom modules. I also don't really do much bot work in this area (or at all really) anymore. –xeno^talk 18:05, 14 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
