Hello, I'm pretty sure you aren't supposed to run a bot if it doesn't have the bot user group. Sorry to bother! 👁 Image

Hello, bot no have permission only in 3 wikies: en, nl and th. TH no have Bureaucrats. NL no have active users. EN... I don't know. I left a request back on 3 November. And it still hasn't been answered. Marcus only pointed out where his bot's configs are located. Since the bot doesn't cause any other issues, it will continue to work for now. — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 06:19, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

Ok. If I see a bureaucrat active, would you like me to mention it to them? 👁 Image

It be good — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 06:25, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

It is currently adding interwiki links that don't function (like pl and tr links). Could you let it stop doing this? Thanks! ––– Aed8814 (C | T) 13:14, 15 November 2025 (UTC)

We've discussed this, and this is the intended behavior. — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 14:32, 15 November 2025 (UTC)

It shouldn't be adding pl links since those don't exist. 👁 Image

If links are working (they are not red), then everything is correct. The rest is temporary difficulties. — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 00:57, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

They are actually red links, which they revert bot's edits Liyz7928 (talk) 00:58, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

I'm not see red links in pages. Can you get screenshots in discord? — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 01:05, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

I actually dont have a discord Liyz7928 (talk) 01:07, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

Interwiki links don't turn red, but if you click on it you'll see it's broken. 👁 Image
NmF (talk) 01:09, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

i mean lead to broken page with error messages Liyz7928 (talk) 01:09, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

These are problems with the site settings. The link itself is set up as working, as can be seen from the Special:Interwiki. And if you check page with direct link, you will see that this page is available: https://minewiki.pl/Blok_ciepła — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 01:17, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

See Meta:January 18, 2025 meeting#Developments related to the Polish wiki. 👁 Image
NmF (talk) 01:18, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

I saw it. This doesn't concern me. If the solution is changed, the links will already be in full working order. Convenient, right? — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 01:21, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

The article says "However, we will not be establishing any links to this wiki and we will not be cooperating with them for the foreseeable future." so it will likely not be resolved. 👁 Image
NmF (talk) 01:28, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

At the moment, the bot's edits are not incorrect in any way. Since I also need it for other purposes, I'm focusing the bot on this task for now. — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 01:33, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

sorry, but next time make bot more accurate please Liyz7928 (talk) 01:34, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

They are incorrect actually. [[pl:Whatever]] doesnt actually go anywhere. They shouldn't be added.  Nixinova  T ⁄ C  03:41, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

Multiple of us have asked you to stop since it doesn't work. It's basically just giving your bot a higher edit count since it doesn't do anything. 👁 Image
NmF (talk) 15:04, 25 November 2025 (UTC)

What's the point of looking at the number of bot edits? Сan't even brag about it. — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 15:11, 25 November 2025 (UTC)

And it also don't work that way to create polish wiki, the pl so go last of the website link. Liyz7928 (talk) 01:19, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

The Polish wiki is at https://minewiki.pl/, and interwiki links don't work for it. 👁 Image
NmF (talk) 01:15, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

The bot is still doing this when it shouldn't. 👁 Image
NmF (talk) 21:26, 4 December 2025 (UTC)

should we add abuse filter to stop adding pl links? Liyz7928 (talk) 21:29, 4 December 2025 (UTC)

As mentioned in MCT:PORTAL#User:ProBot adding pl: links, the addition of those links is a technical restriction of the bot software used. The alternative would be to remove all PL interwiki links, which is not something we want to do at this point in time. @Liyz7928 and NmbrblcksFan: Please just ignore the PL links as they are hidden anyway and stop reverting the bot edits. -- 👁 Image

I'd like to add interwikis for the new version disambiguations (from ko:1.51 to ko:2.0) on Korean Wiki on the matching pages on en, es, ja, pt, uk and zh. You can use [[ko:{{subst:PAGENAME}}]] on the affected pages. Thank you! TigerZhang (talk) 17:39, 6 December 2025 (UTC)

Good. I'll do it right after I finish the dark theme gadget! — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 18:34, 6 December 2025 (UTC)

I think 👁 Image
 Done — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 21:48, 6 December 2025 (UTC)

I'd like to add interwikis for the new version disambiguations (from it:1.22 to it:2.0) on Italian Wiki on the matching pages on en, es, ja, ko, pt, th, uk and zh. You can use [[it:{{subst:PAGENAME}}]] on the affected pages. Thank you! TigerZhang (talk) 08:59, 7 December 2025 (UTC) (Last edited on 09:28, 7 December 2025 (UTC))

I'd like to add interwikis for the new version disambiguations (from th:1.30 to th:2.0) on Thai Wiki on the matching pages on en, es, it, ja, ko, pt, uk and zh. You can use [[th:{{subst:PAGENAME}}]] on the affected pages. Thank you! TigerZhang (talk) 12:16, 7 December 2025 (UTC)

Let me wait until you finish and go through all the languages ​​at once?) — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 14:05, 7 December 2025 (UTC)

I'm also creating them on RU. May be very soon TigerZhang (talk) 17:03, 7 December 2025 (UTC)

👁 Image
 Finished on RU. Since I can't find similar disamgiguations on other languages, I can't create them on those wikis.

If someone wants to continue it, he/she can make a temporary template (like it:Utente:TigerZhang/Disam, ko:사용자:TigerZhang/Disam, ru:Участник:TigerZhang/Disam and th:ผู้ใช้:TigerZhang/Disam).

Now we need to add interwikis to new version disambiguations on:

it, ru, th

to:

en, es, it, ja, ko, pt, ru, th, uk, zh.

Thank you. TigerZhang (talk) 17:32, 7 December 2025 (UTC)

Okey, it will be done. — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 18:18, 7 December 2025 (UTC)

 Done — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 19:02, 7 December 2025 (UTC)

Can you let your bot update interwiki links in pages in the "Template" and "Minecraft Wiki" namespaces? ––– Aed8814 (C | T) 04:42, 19 January 2026 (UTC)

No. Templates have a more complex structure for placing interwiki. And in the Projects namespace there are too many protected pages + there are pages similar to templates. — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 06:26, 19 January 2026 (UTC)

I think maybe it is necessary to update interwikis for pages in Template namespace. The interwikis are often quite outdated there.

For example, once I wanted to add a {{needs update}} on some other wikis, but I can't find the name of this template on this wiki. TigerZhang (talk) 19:34, 19 February 2026 (UTC)

A decision by the Block & Quill board has been made to disallow bots from adding or modifying non-functional interwikis (see the close message on meta:Forum:Interwikis for language wikis not hosted by Weird Gloop.) Your bot continues to add and modify these links despite this. Please apply the relevant patches (see mw:phab:T410104 and this patchset) to your interwiki bot and prevent it from modifying these links further, else administrator involvement may be required. 👁 Image

NmF (talk) 22:05, 23 February 2026 (UTC)

@Ivan-r, your bot @ProBot still continues to add, remove, or change interwiki links to the Polish wiki, causing edit wars. (Examples: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10) Please halt operations of your bot until you have ensured that it does not modify these links in any way, to adhere to the result of the discussion on the Meta wiki. | violine1101 ^(talk) 16:57, 27 February 2026 (UTC)

— Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 17:02, 27 February 2026 (UTC)

What are you trying to say? | violine1101 ^(talk) 17:13, 27 February 2026 (UTC)

Most of the bot's edits that concern the Polish wiki are the return of links that Aed8814 deleted without reason. Additionally — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 17:22, 27 February 2026 (UTC)

That doesn't matter. Just don't modify the links, period. Same goes for anyone else, of course, but you're running a bot so you have extra responsibility. | violine1101 ^(talk) 17:34, 27 February 2026 (UTC)

@Ivan-r: Your bot is still continuing to modify non-functional interwiki links. Please stop! | violine1101 ^(talk) 18:58, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

Your bot, ProBot, has continued to add defunct interwiki links despite you being made aware that official decision from the Board is that bots should not add or remove these interwikis from pages. Due to this, I have blocked ProBot from editing indefinitely. The block will be lifted when you can tell me with certainty that you have modified the bot so that this will not happen again. Also, I accidentally blocked your own account for a few seconds instead of the bot, apologies! - Harri / Talk 👁 Image
21:14, 4 March 2026 (UTC)

It should be noted that the block is local to EnMCW only; however, the bot operates on all MCW sections, so a global block might be possible unless the patch referenced in the topic above would be implemented. — BabylonAS 21:37, 4 March 2026 (UTC)

Interwikis of snapshots (including April Fools' ones) has recently added a prefix of "爪哇版" (Java Edition). Therefore, I request to update interwikis for them.

e.g. 二五週四一甲 --> 爪哇版二五週四一甲

       (25w41a)             (Java Edition 25w41a)

TigerZhang (talk) 03:17, 9 May 2026 (UTC)

I launched for ru and pl, but I will no longer update interwikis in other language sections. — Ivan-r ru.Wiki admin 10:05, 9 May 2026 (UTC)
