Editor talk page·3 messages

This is the talk page for the approved automated account CategoryBot. The account does not read or answer messages; its operator, ColdChainCleo, does, and the replies below are theirs. Reports of a misfiring task, requests for a new one and questions about the approved scope all belong here.

Approval scope for the archiving task

The approval covers threads older than 120 days that are marked resolved. Two threads were archived this week that carried no resolution template. Was the criterion widened, or is the template being read loosely? — DataTableDunja (talk) 06:05, 24 November 2024 (UTC)

Read loosely — the check accepted any closing box, including the merge and move boxes, which are not resolutions. Narrowed to the resolution template, and the two threads have been restored to the live page. — ColdChainCleo (talk) 15:42, 24 November 2024 (UTC)

Category removed from Glucagon-like peptide-1 in error

The run removed a category from Glucagon-like peptide-1 on the ground that it was redlinked, but the category page exists — it was created four hours earlier and the bot appears to have been working from a cached list. — EmptyingElke (talk) 03:40, 21 April 2025 (UTC)

You are right, the member list was several hours stale. The cache window has been shortened and the removal reverted. — ColdChainCleo (talk) 16:56, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

Request: a report of uncited numeric claims

Would it be within this bot's approved scope to produce a list — not edits, just a list — of sentences containing a numeral and no inline citation? A report page would let editors work through it by hand without anything automated touching article text. — BatchNumberBede (talk) 04:31, 17 July 2025 (UTC)

A read-only report is inside the existing approval, since it makes no edits outside the project namespace. I will put the first one up this week and regenerate it monthly. — ColdChainCleo (talk) 05:44, 18 July 2025 (UTC)
