Greetings!

Here is the 5th issue of the ''Bots Newsletter'' (formerly the ''BAG Newletter''). You can subscribe/unsubscribe from future newsletters by adding/removing your name from ].

Highlights for this newsletter include:

;ARBCOM
*'']'' happened, leading to further restrictions on {{noping|Magioladitis}} (], ]).
*'']'' was proposed to be amended to lift the indefinite ban on {{noping|Δ}}, but was unsuccessful (]).
*A motion concerning '']'' (mostly concerning Wikidata) was passed (see ]).

;BAG
*{{noping|Hersfold}} was due to long term inactivity.
*

;BRFAs
We currently have 6 ] bot requests at ], and could use your help processing!

;Discussions
While there were no large-scale bot-related discussion in the past few months, you can check ] and ] (and their corresponding archives) for smaller issues that came up.

;New things
*], a dictionary of common bot-related terms (see ]).
*6 inactive bots have been deflagged (see ]).
*The ] happened. Two bot-related proposal passed, #6 '']'' and #10 '']'', although other entries may affect bots as well.
* ] and its subcategories has had some cleanup. Bot-related pages that were historically important but are no longer of interests can be found in ]
* The edit summary limit has been increased to 1000 characters (see {{phab|T6715}}). If a bot you operate relied on the old truncation limit (255 characters), please review/update your code, as overly long summaries can be disruptive/annoying. If you want to use extra characters to have more information in your edit summary, please do so intelligently.
* You will soon be able to ] users from the edit summary (see {{phab|T188469}}). If you wish to use this feature in your bot, please do so intelligently.

== MDPI == == Crashy crashy ==


Looks like AAB crashed, but according to contribs, it actually posted all the report pages including last update but not the status page. It looks like it didn't upload zips. So the next run needs to not download zips so it uses the current local files. If you send me the log file, I might take a look at what crashed. —&nbsp;<small>&nbsp;]&nbsp;<b>∣</b>&nbsp;]</small> 10:13, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
Why did you move the section on controversy back to the top of the MDPI page? I think it is pretty clear now MDPI is not a predatory publisher (any more so then all the academic publishers are trying to make a buck) so it at best belongs in the section below - which in terms of importance is not high other than for historical reasons. Also as you have clearly been editing for a lot longer than me - can you point me to how to easily import a table (see the talk page) Thanks ] (]) 05:22, 10 March 2018 (UTC)

CS1 error on Race and ethnicity in Brazil

Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Race and ethnicity in Brazil, may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

  • A bare URL error. References show this error when one of the URL-containing parameters cannot be paired with an associated title. Please edit the article to add the appropriate title parameter to the reference. (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 00:48, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
