You replied at your bot

Hi there, the problem is I don't understand a word of what your bot is asking me to fill in, zero, nothing. Picture policy is like a foreign language to me (so is English). All these templates, descriptions, catagories, licences, I just don't get it, sorry. So would it be possible if you could help me out, instead of me doing it wrong about 5 times, getting the pictures deleted by a bot about 5 times before I throw a hammer through my screen in frustration. I don't thing you realise just how retarded I am when it comes to these things. Realist2 (talk) 07:10, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Thank you, I tried it, apparently it takes a while to work so I have no way of knowing if I did it right yet. If and when it works could you please help me crop it, I left details of this on the bot talk page. :-) --Realist2 (talk) 09:56, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Its been added to the Michael Jackson catagory but I've clearly done it wrong as it came out blank, I'm at a loss on this now, [1]. Please its not my fault I'm stupid. Realist2 (talk) 14:35, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi Brian, I figured out how to do it now, I was making a silly mistake. However, would you mind deleting the 2 blank ones I made at Category:Michael Jackson please. Blank pictures are obviously useless. Cheers. --Realist2 (talk) 17:15, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

The S stands for Sweet

This is the thing, there are some people who cannot be anything but themselves and my experience with SB is this. If I say that I am The person who discovered Neptune in no way does saying that make it a fact.

SB can say he is annoying, even type somewhat annoying text here and there -- it doesn't make it that way though.

How come it is Bryan with a y? -- carol (talk) 03:07, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Flickr upload bot - tokenId: 18765

The process failed, so I uploaded the picture via local desktop. --Palnatoke (talk) 10:42, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

Flickr & cc-by-nc-sa-2.0

Hi Bryan,

I got from the author the authorization to use the picture http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:GrottaDellaSibilla.jpg To be fair, I asked to the author to change its copyright on Flickr in order to link his page, but the FlickreviewR check failed as follow

{{User:FlickreviewR/reviewed-fail-recent|steciock|http://flickr.com/photos/26880646@N08/2610697080|00:16, 7 July 2008 (UTC)|cc-by-nc-sa-2.0}}

What is wrong with the "Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 2.0 Generic" license?

Pietro (talk) 09:41, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Could you please keep on hold the deletion of this file: I have to ask to the author to change his copyright on Flick

Flickr upload bot suggestion

I have a suggestion to enhance your SUPER AWESOME flickr upload bot. I suggest that you add check boxes for things like personality rights and logo images. It would greatly add to their usage. Royalbroil 16:17, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

tokenId: 18887

The bot failed uploading picture id 18887 (Image:Wat Phu.jpg). I have to upload by normal process since this happens sometimes. Nguyễn Thanh Quang (talk) 05:08, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

It seemed that the picture had been re-uploaded. Thank you. Nguyễn Thanh Quang (talk) 05:50, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Image:Tworczosc Zdzislaw Beksinski 02.jpg and Image:Tworczosc Zdzislaw Beksinski 003.jpg

Well - the uploader claimed he is a marshand of Beksiński and he has sent a scan of handwriten document signed by Beksinski giving all copyrights to uploader. Therefore I informed him that he can choose any aceptable free licence and add OTRS template. It seems he did not choose any licence, so we have to contact him again...

Scope proposal

Can you comment on Commons talk:Project scope/Proposal, please? See the last section. --MichaelMaggs (talk) 19:14, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

No file exists

I have just uploaded the file: Image:Cần xé.jpg, the upload process succeeded but there was no file. Could you please check this? I guess the problem may arise from the file name (in Vietnamese). Thank you. Nguyễn Thanh Quang (talk) 12:51, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Manually uploaded file. -Nard 13:24, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- Now it works. No idea why. -- Bryan (talk to me) 13:32, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

It worked, maybe there was an accidental delay :) Thanks anyway! Nguyễn Thanh Quang (talk) 15:43, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

DRBot-Edits

What exactly is the logic behind bot-work like that one, especially since now soon the next bot will appear and 'subst' the added templates. -- Cecil (talk) 22:19, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

It does not even accept if somebody removes the duplicated closing. -- Cecil (talk) 10:38, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Can you exampt me from the uploading restriction?

Hi, Bryan. I need to upload many flickr images to Commons with it. So can you lift the restriction from me? Thanks.--Caspian blue (talk) 17:21, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. It works well. --Caspian blue (talk) 17:43, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

CatWatch disabled

Category watch has been temporarily disabled. -- Bryan (talk to me) 21:13, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

:-( Thanks for your work on it so far, anyway! —Giggy 01:40, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

What on Earth happened to that image? --Igno2 (talk) 17:27, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Upload page translation

Hi! I want to translate the following page into Thai. But currently, I searched in Betawiki and find nowhere to translate such a page. Can you give me the list of pages I have to translate ? Thank you. --Passawuth (talk) 13:01, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

german disambiguation pages

Hi, please take note that our list was moved from de:Wikipedia:WikiProjekt Begriffsklärungsseiten/Top-BKS to de:Wikipedia:WikiProjekt Begriffsklärungsseiten/Arbeitslisten/Top-BKS. The Bot did not update, I think this is the reason. --Aktionsheld (talk) 14:47, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi Bryan, the last three edits of your Bot all completly emptied the page, see [2]. Any idea about the reason? --schlendrian •λ• 20:41, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm investigating it, but I currently don't know what causes it. -- Bryan (talk to me) 22:19, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Do you think, moving the list back will help the bot? If the answer is yes, it's no problem to do. The main thing is that the bot does its work. --Knopfkind (talk) 12:45, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Fixed -- Bryan (talk to me) 17:26, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Upload limit

Hi, I (Martin H. (talk · contribs)) just reached my uploade limit for your flickr web tool. Can I request an exemption? Greetings, --Martin H. (talk) 14:08, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
