A task for Alaibot
Hello Alai. The backlog of uncategorized articles is getting dangerously low! I'm sure you'd hate to see the whole categorization task force out of work so maybe it's time for a run of Alaibot on the most recent database dump. :-) Pichpich (talk) 17:00, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
- Gaaaaaah! only 900 articles left in the backlog. It's decreasing so fast that I suspect a little bit of negligence from backlog-obsessed participants but still, we need a run of Alaibot. As far as I know it is the only one using database dumps rather than the Special page list. Pichpich (talk) 18:27, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
- I feel kind of dumb saying I appreciate it! ;-) Pichpich (talk) 04:57, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
- And I'm afraid we're about to get hundreds if not thousands of articles thrown back into the backlog. See the utterly absurd issue brought up on ANI... Pichpich (talk) 17:54, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Template:User page ban
A tag has been placed on Template:User page ban requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.
If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{transclusionless}}</noinclude>).
Thanks. --MZMcBride (talk) 21:41, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Re: Speedy deletion taggings
In 2007, there were four separate proposals to use "prod" for templates; all of them went nowhere. The system being used for deprecated and orphaned templates is the exact same system that is currently employed when "speedily" deleting images. (In fact, I copied a lot of the underlying code.) If I've inconvenienced you in any way, I apologize. However, I decided that it would be better to inform template creators on their talk page and wait a week rather than simply deleting the templates like some admins have done in the past. --MZMcBride (talk) 03:03, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of Image:Alcohol cropped.png
A tag has been placed on Image:Alcohol cropped.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section I1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Misplaced Pages (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on ] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines.

More possible work for Alaibot...
G'day Alai - I notice a "backlog" template on SFD, and it is beginning to get a bit out of hand. Perhaps if Alaibot can orphan some of the more obvious deletion decisions it'd make it easier to cut SFD back a bit. here are a handful of possibles:
- {{Philippine Movie Stub}} / Category:Philippine Movie Stub to {{Philippines-film-stub}} / Category:Filipino film stubs
- all of the {{Ohio-Countyname-NRHP-struct-stub}} types (see here) to {{CountynameOH-NRHP-struct-stub}} (all upmerged)
Any help with these would be much appreciated! Cheers, Grutness...wha? 06:22, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Data dump?
Hi Alai! :P I have a vague understanding that the format of the data dumps changed some time late 2007; does that affect your ability to produce statistics from it? I miss the monthly updates... Her Pegship (tis herself) 21:22, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
Stub
Hello, Alai. First of all, thank you for agreeing to create an upmerge template for the stub I proposed. Second, I am inexperienced in creating a stub. How do I create an upmerge template?? See my proposal here, Taiwanese company stub. Thank you. Jkj115 02:58, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you very much, Alai! Jkj115 05:13, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
