You archiving script failed spectacularly

I thought I would point out that your archiving script seems to have a string offset issue. It's grabbing a few characters from the previous thread, and leaving a few from the thread being archived.—CYBERPOWER (Chat) 14:55, 29 January 2018 (UTC)

Sorry for not responding sooner, I'll have to dig through my history to find it. Give me a few, and please ping me next time. You slip past me on my watchlist quite easily. :-(—CYBERPOWER (Chat) 19:44, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Archives with with the same name

Hi, I would like to say that your bot has created an archive with an almost identical name to an older archive, with the difference being that the former has space between 'Archive' and '1', whereas the latter does not. Can I ask you how to correct this? Leo1pard (talk) 05:07, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

Get rid of the space in the archive optionsΣσς(Sigma) 19:33, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Your archiver

There appears to be a current issue with your archvier. When you click the button to enter/exit the archival process there is usually a button that pops up next to the edit source button that says "archive". The option is not appearing and hasn't been for a couple days. Any suggestions?? Thanks TheDoctorWho (talk) 02:24, 21 February 2018 (UTC)

Can you send me an email? Σσς(Sigma) 14:57, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
Yep hold up. TheDoctorWho (talk) 19:35, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Archive problem

Please see Talk:Criticism of the Bahá'í Faith#Archive of this page. I think Lowercase sigmabot III made an error while arhiving. Cuñado ☼ - Talk 14:47, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Two things:
  • You can put links to the archives on the talk page if you'd like. There are templates to facilitate this.
Exactly what templates. I've tried various approaches. Because of the deep history that was never archived it archived into sections that aren't listed in the talk history so even the urls are lost from readable history of the page. Smkolins (talk) 21:59, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
  • Old posts have timestamps that the bot doesn't recognise. Basically it can't tell how old it is because it's written in day month, year (UTC), hour:minute or something that isn't in the familiiar 14:59, 6 March 2018 (UTC) format we all know and love. Σσς(Sigma) 14:59, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

March 2018

  Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:Backyard Monsters, from its old location at User:Σ/BYM. This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 17:49, 10 March 2018 (UTC)

Bot Bug Report

Hi Σ,

Lowercase sigmabot III has some archived problem. In my talk page, this bot had archived my massages only at Archive 2 page, not 3. My Archive 2 is getting full. Please do something. If my configuration has some problem then fix it soon. Thank you, Siddiqsazzad001 (TALK) 06:15, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

(talk page stalker)From your talk page...
{{User:MiszaBot/config

Bot will continue to archive @ Archive 2 until it hits 100 kilobytes. (It's currently at 45 KB.) There's no bug here. — regards, Revi 09:30, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
