ReferenceBot placing user talk pages in article categories

I'm not sure if this has been resolved within the past two months but ReferenceBot placed a user talk page in a category. Elassint Hi 05:43, 30 April 2014 (UTC)

A side effect of an edit about a page in the Category namespace. We had a similar issue with pages in the File namespace some time ago, so this may have been fixed at the same time. Thanks for the notification, though! Huon (talk) 11:49, 1 May 2014 (UTC)

BracketBot: Nyttend

I have an annoying habit of overlooking mispaired brackets, so I often get notes from the bot, and I can't yet remember getting a false positive. With that in mind, I just wanted to say thanks for running the bot, since it's amazingly helpful. Nyttend (talk) 19:08, 4 May 2014 (UTC)

Bot picks up smileys/frowns

Resolved

Here is an edit with a "(:" BracketBot picked it up and left a message with the IP here. (I have revered the message.) Can BracketBot be trained to ignore such postings? Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 18:09, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

I see you have answered the emoticon issue above. Marking as resolved. Thanks. – S. Rich (talk) 02:24, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

Bots optout

Why does bracketbot ignore {{bots|optout=all}} ? Sophie means wisdom (talk) 15:02, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

@Sophie means wisdom: Because BracketBot does not send messages listed under Template:Bots#Message_notification_opt_out. Perhaps you mean deny=all? 930913(Congratulate) 22:05, 11 May 2014 (UTC)
Ah, thanks. I can never get the hang of the tech side of WP. Sophie means wisdom (talk) 22:53, 11 May 2014 (UTC)

Drowning in Limbo

Thank you for your comments about my edits on the Barry Switzer piece. I made two more tonight re: overall record vs. Texas--and the missed interception call by an official on the game's next to last play in the 1984 game with Texas. OU would otherwise have won since Texas would not have had the opportunity to kick the tying field goal on the game's last play.

Thanks for identifying a problem with the references. I think I've fixed it - and also now understand what 'named reference' means and how to make one. Very useful! MerielGJones (talk) 00:04, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

You're welcome, thank you for fixing it! Huon (talk) 18:43, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
