Hidden notes to explain units in Cluebot III wikitext

[edit]

Please see: Template talk:Setup cluebot archiving#Hidden notes explaining units.

Do you think you might consider adjusting the bot code to allow hidden notes to explain the units?

Or maybe allow unit notes within parentheses. --Timeshifter (talk) 16:10, 29 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

For those who are interested I was sent here:

ClueBot III making an early archival

[edit]

ClueBot III archived a couple week-old discussions here despite having |age=2160. Is this a bug? Dan Leonard (talk • contribs) 17:14, 7 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The bot archived threads so that the number of threads on the talk page was 1 so |maxkeepthreads=1 was honored as configured on the page. Admittedly, that seems like a rather odd way to configure the bot. maxkeepthreads is really designed to be set to something high to stop a talk page from having too many threads.

Ah that explains it, thanks for the quick explanation. I've raised it to 10removed the parameter entirely to prevent this in the future. Probably no need to revert though as the only sections archived were a {{please see}} and a malformed paragraph. Dan Leonard (talk • contribs) 17:38, 7 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
