Legobot Index Errors

Hey Legoktm. I've been trying to set up both lowercase sigmabot III and Legobot on my talk page. While I've got lowercase sigmabot archiving now, with it creating a new archive per year, Legobot seems to not want to index it. According to the index error log, I'm missing the first_archive= parameter, however I cannot find anything in the instructions, linked from Help:Archiving a talk page#Archive indexing, for what that parameter does or what format it takes. I also can't see any newer documentation linked on Legobot's user page which might give me a hint. I've tried to take a look at the underlying Rust code on Gitlab for some hints, but I can't tell if first_archive is a parameter the bot reads from the page, or if it's a parameter it creates internally.

Do I just need to set first_archive in the template string as 2020, as that is the first year of the archive? If so, can we add that to the documentation? There seems to be 19 other talk pages, 20 total, that are spitting out the same error as mine. Sideswipe9th (talk) 21:12, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

Technical news

  • Unregistered editors using the mobile website are now able to receive notices to indicate they have talk page messages. The notice looks similar to what is already present on desktop, and will be displayed on when viewing any page except mainspace and when editing any page. (T284642)
  • The limit on the number of emails a user can send per day has been made global instead of per-wiki to help prevent abuse. (T293866)

Administrators will no longer be autopatrolled

A recently closed Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove Autopatrolled from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with Edit Filter Manager, choose to self-assign this permission to yourself. This will be implemented the week of December 13th, but if you wish to self-assign you may do so now. To find out when the change has gone live or if you have any questions please visit the Administrator's Noticeboard. 20:06, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

Legobot behaviour

Hi, have you altered Legobot recently? It made this edit, and the lack of content for the |text= parameter usually means one of three things - (i) missing timestamp; (ii) timetamp present but not in the format produced by WP:4TILDES; (iii) too much text between the {{rfc}} tag and the timestamp. Problem (i) is clearly not the case, and problem (ii) isn't either. I've never established the limit for (iii) accurately, but it's in the region of 2,000 bytes, and this RfC statement is clearly much shorter than that. So I'm stumped as to why Legobot has rejected the statement. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 21:25, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

@Redrose64: the last change I made to rfcbot.php was 3 months ago. And I just checked on Toolforge itself, there are no changes outside of the Git repo. So I'd say I have no clue, I'm pretty sure you're more knowledgeable than me at this point about how it works... Legoktm (talk) 21:32, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
I've had an idea - I suspect that this edit to a malformed older RfC on the same page will allow the newer one to list correctly. We'll find out at 22:01 (UTC). --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 21:40, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
Yep. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 22:16, 14 December 2021 (UTC)

DYK for Tokio (software)

On 31 December 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Tokio (software), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the Tokio platform for the Rust programming language uses a work stealing scheduler? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Tokio (software). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Tokio (software)), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
