About IdefixBot
Hello, I am sorry, I don't speak german, but your English talk page is a redirect.
I saw that you have undone IdefixBot's modifications on de:Waffe and Weapons (disambiguation) pages. The bot did that because I programmed it to only put links to disambiguation pages in disambiguation pages because I thought that it was better.
I just want to notify it to you to make you understanding of what happened. Anyway, I disabled the bot on these 2 pages, and thank you for looking at what IdefixBot does ! :) • ObelusPA2 d · FR Admin · 23:36, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
- @ObelusPA2: No problem, you can speak English to me, mais je peux parler français aussi ;) Anyway, I set a redirect on my English talk page because it's easier to manage for my like that - also because I don't do bigger edits in the English or the French wiki, just interwiki links.
Also, I understand that disambiguation pages and "normal" pages normally should not be "interwiki'ed". But I think it's an exception on the "Weapons" pages, because the English, French and Spanish wikis have disambiguation pages, but don't hava a "normal" page - and all other wikis have only "normal" pages. So, thank you for blocking that problem in the future.
By the way, does your bot also "interwiki" template pages? | violine1101 (Talk) 17:36, 24 January 2015 (UTC)- @Violine1101: 10% of the pages on which the bot works are templates, it is supposed to deal with "<noinclude>" and "<includeonly>". • ObelusPA2 d · FR Admin · 19:10, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
- Great! | violine1101 (Diskussion) 21:50, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
- @ObelusPA2: Here's the same problem: Gold (Begriffsklärung). Your bot removed the valid Hungarian link which was added by JARVISTheBot on January 4th as a result of IdefixBot's deletion of the same interwiki link on November 30th (see here). I hope your two bots won't revert each other's edits over and over (That would be a bot edit war). Anyway, IdefixBot hasn't made that edit on other wikis yet - I just want that you know about that problem. I reverted his edit here.
Also, many modules aren't not linked to other wikis. Could you configure your bot that it also works on module pages if it doesn't already? I haven't seen any module interwikiing so far. | violine1101 (Diskussion) 14:42, 27 January 2015 (UTC)- @Violine1101: That happened because there was not disambiguation template in hu:Arany (megkülönböztető lap), so the bot was not knowing that it is a disambiguation page. I think that I will make possible to recognize these pages with their title, and disable page edition if an other interwiki bot edited it recently (the edit war was a coincidence ^^).
- A lot of modules are protected and many of the others don't have documentation, I don't think that running the bot on these pages is very useful, but I can test it. • ObelusPA2 d · FR Admin · 16:04, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
- @ObelusPA2: Same here: Vorlage:Navbox-Umwelt/Dokumentation. I really don't know why that could happen. Aside from such cases, which are really uncommon, your bot works fine! :) (Also, just for your information,
/docis/Dokumentationhere in some cases (we're currently reorganizing that) and documentations aren't interwikied here because we think it is not necessary.) | violine1101 (Diskussion) 19:38, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Moving redirects
Hello Violine1101, in the future, could you please not move redirects to make way for pagemoves on the English wiki, as you did with en:Unimplemented features? If a redirect is blocking a pagemove, the page should instead be tagged with {{Move}}, and an admin will move it. For more information, see en:User talk:Dinoguy1000#Delete "Temp" pages. Thanks! 「ディノ奴千?!」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 21:56, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
- Oh sorry, I didn't know that you have a template for that. I recently had the same problem here on the German wiki but I thaught the blocking of the move was a bug because I've seen in the recent changes that it's possible to override redirects. Well, I don't understand why it's blocked sometimes (It seems not to be blocked always) but thanks for the information, that won't occur anymore. | violine1101 (Diskussion) 22:17, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
- The wiki software is supposed to allow you to move a page over a redirect if the only edit in that redirect's history is it being created as a redirect to the page being moved (if that made any sense), but in my experience it seems to be rather finicky most of the time. Admins can move any page over any redirect, regardless of the redirect's history, because they can delete pages, so doing so effectively streamlines the process of deleting the redirect and then moving the page into a single action. 「ディノ奴千?!」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 23:33, 28 April 2015 (UTC)
- That makes sense - I would have deleted the version history if I was able to move the page and overwrite the redirect, which only admins are allowed to. Thanks for the information, I didn't know that. | violine1101 (Diskussion) 15:03, 29 April 2015 (UTC)

Automatic translation
Hello. Please don’t use automatic translators to translate text that will be written. Automatic translation naturally has many errors, making the “translation” incorrect. If you need something translated, ask someone who is fluent in both source and target languages. And, in Russian, “removed interwiki” will be “удалена интервики”, and “removed interwikis” will be “удалены интервики”. P. S. Sorry for outdated signature – I forgot to update it, and I can’t update it right now, from a mobile version. — NickTheRed37, formerly Naista2002 (moderator der ru.wiki) (diskussion) 11:15, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
- Well, I did not use any translation tool. I wrote the text (I assume you meant my Italian user talk page) in English, translated it via Google translator to German, corrected it, and let the translator translate it to Italian. That link I applied to my reply. I did that to avoid that the meaning gets lost (actually, Italian translation seems to work pretty well). I don't use translation tools usually, I rather use dictionaries, as I did vor the Russian interwiki description, ... well it looks like there is some mistake there (I can't really speak Russian, I just got interested into the alphabet and transliteration because of Томас Алеус and so on). Thanks for the proper translation! ;)
PS: Do my posts sound like translation-tool-translated? :S | violine1101 (Diskussion) 11:37, 1 May 2015 (UTC)- I only meant the interwiki thing. — Naista2002 (moderator der ru.wiki) (diskussion) 12:46, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
- Oh, okay. No, I didn't use a translation tool for something like that (I know that computer-translated terms often use no proper language), I looked it up in a (online) dictionary (http://www.leo.org) because it also has a flexion table and I tried to find the most proper translation. I however failed to do that, maybe because "entfernen" is either "to remove" or "to displace" in German. Sorry for that. | violine1101 (Diskussion) 13:17, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
