@Y7dasuhda1: Once you have more than 10 edits, and your account is more than 4 days old, click on the drop down menu labelled "Tools". There should be a button that says "Move". Click on that, enter your desired title, and click "Move Page". See Help:How to move a page for more detailed information. ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me!20:18, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I began a page for Olib, Croatia around 2010 under the name MatijaOlib. I have been unable to retrieve my login information for the last year. I see others have deleted a photo from this site which I took and which was active on the page from 2010 to 2023. It was named Olib.png. Can this be reversed? Thank you so much!

Sorry, the username was Matijaolib. I believe I was blocked from editing or someone took over this name. I took the olib.png photo in 2005. I think I started the Olib, Croatia English page around that time. My family is from here and had been there since the 15th Century. I have used a VPN which may have caused an editing block on this username? Again, any help you can provide is appreciated! Matija Matija Mosunic (talk) 16:30, 22 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I found it and the photo. It took a few tries to reset my pw for Matijaolib. I’m not sure if it was a bot or a human which removed the photo but I will edit and ask questions as necessary. Thanks!! Matija Mosunic (talk) 16:41, 22 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reset schedule for URAleaderboard?
Hi ARandomName123! I was just wondering what the reset schedule will be for the URAleaderboard you made that the bot updates? Is it going to be a monthly or annual thing where you archive the old version of the page? SilverserenC00:23, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Silver seren: Hi Silver! The leaderboard's going to be a monthly thing. That is, everything (should) reset back to an empty table once it hits February 1, 00:00 UTC, and update from there. I haven't considered manually keeping a monthly archive, mainly because it should all be accessible in the page history anyways.

Looking through the page history might get annoying after a while, considering how often the bot updates the page. Moving the content to a subpage after the end of the month (for example, as January 2025) would be more convenient and accessible for perusing past months. Just a suggestion though. SilverserenC03:45, 12 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Dunno what happened, but it looks like the leaderboard isn't actually being updated every hour. The bot has made a null update for the past four hours, despite new article edits having been made in the meantime (at least in my case, I can't speak for others). Is it maybe a page limit for diffs or just a bot issue itself? Either way, mission accomplished! :P SilverserenC01:36, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Silver seren: Thanks for telling me! Should be updating again normally. The bot itself is working fine, it's just the tracker the bot depends on stopped for some reason. There shouldn't be any loss of data, since it should start counting again from where it left off, but if you do notice it missing something, please let me know.
As for why this is happening, I honestly have no clue. It's actually happened quite a bit, so far. Toolforge shows the job as running normally, the occasional errors I get from the recent changes stream don't match up with the timeline, and there's nothing strange in the error logs. Luckily, all that needed to be done was restart it. ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me!02:12, 15 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Sam4u99: Hi, Wikipedia is not a place to sell your kidney. I can help with any Wikipedia related questions, but medical questions should be directed towards a professional, not a random person on the internet. Cheers, ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me!19:26, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
