Categories for eradication
Hey Kris! Thanks for the bot work you’re doing. Awhile ago, we created an abuse filter to prevent the use of the category, My Vhs Ideas, but it fails to catch the singular. Would you mind, when you have a moment, doing the following: Thanks! — Spike  Toronto  07:20, March 13, 2013 (UTC)
 * Change Special:AbuseFilter/4 so that it catches its category in either singular or plural form, regardless of case
 * Change Special:AbuseFilter/6 so that it catches its category in either singular or plural form, regardless of case
 * Remove the category, My vhs idea, singular or plural, from every page on which it occurs, regardless of case
 * Remove the category, My video idea, singular or plural, from every page on which it occurs, regardless of case


 * Will get onto it in a sec :) 07:23, March 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * Removed links to stop redlinking and wanted category... It's all done now... Just tested and am unable to create anything that contains it :P :) 07:40, March 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * Fantastic! Were you also able to remove those four, not case-sensitive possibilities from any page on which they existed? Thanks! — Spike  Toronto  08:00, March 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * They didn't exist on any pages :) Also chat logging is working: Scratchpad:Chat/Logs/13_March_2013

I see what you did. You removed the s, which means it will catch both the singular and plural. Clever! By the way, the one category does exist at http://bit.ly/X5Fomn. It contains hundreds of entries. So, if one of your bots could strip that category from every one of those pages, that’d be great. Then, afterwards, we can delete and salt the category page itself. Thanks! — Spike  Toronto  08:12, March 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * It's running now :) Enjoy 08:29, March 13, 2013 (UTC)

Forum errors
I am so glad you’re here. You can fix all our technical problems! The next one is, why are there all those errors at Forum:Index? Thanks! — Spike  Toronto  08:22, March 13, 2013 (UTC)

Never mind. It fixed itself after I made an edit to the page. A null edit would probably have been sufficient. Go figure. Thanks! — Spike  Toronto  08:44, March 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * What errors, they disapeared after my magic touch ;)

Template:Speedy delete
Hey Cblair91! When you’re marking pages for deletion, if they qualify, you might sometimes want to use. The criteria for its use are listed in the documentation. Thanks! :) — Spike  Toronto  07:30, March 14, 2013 (UTC)

P.S. You might also want to take a look at the policy page at SP:DELETE. Thanks! — Spike  Toronto  08:22, March 14, 2013 (UTC)

Wham! (w/out George Michael)
As disscussed …

Extra button for Quick Tools (Wham!)
Hey Grunny! I was wondering if w:c:vstf:User:Joeyaa/wham.js could be modified to have one more button. Right now, the button labelled All of the above combines the following functions: However, sometimes, you only want to do the first two. So, I was hoping we could add a button that combined only: Would that be possible? Thanks! :) — Spike  Toronto  10:54, November 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete all pages
 * Rollback all edits
 * Quick block
 * Delete all pages
 * Rollback all edits


 * Didn't test it, but I've added a button at w:c:vstf:User:Randomtime/wham.js that should do the trick --  Random Time  11:03, November 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * That fast?! :O That file is the most complex thing I’ve ever seen. I figured it’d take forever to add the extra button. Thanks! I'm going to give it a try now. — Spike  Toronto  11:59, November 28, 2012 (UTC)


 *  UPDATE : I gave it a try and it did something odd. If I remember correctly, even if the miscreant created a page, if others have since edited it, QuickTools will not delete it. Yet, the revised version — with the “Delete+rollback” button — just deleted a page that had been edited by others since the miscreant created it. Thanks! — Spike  Toronto  15:19, December 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm just wrapping the 2 functions that already exist, I haven't changed the code of the delete or rollback tool, so everything should be the same. --  Random Time  17:48, December 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * That’s what I thought. Thanks for the confirmation. :) — Spike  Toronto  20:43, December 2, 2012 (UTC)

Quick Tools (Wham) & Rollback
Hey Grunny! I notice that the rollback for w:c:vstf:User:Joeyaa/wham.js rolls back edits by User:JohnDoe to User:JohnDoe. Normally, rollback will only rollback a user’s edits if it can roll them back to another, different user’s edits. Can this glitch be fixed in QuickTools/Wham? Thanks! :) — Spike  Toronto  04:57, February 2, 2013 (UTC)

P.S. Also, can QuickTools/Wham be altered to permit us to alter the rollback description? Thanks! — Spike  Toronto  04:59, February 2, 2013 (UTC)

Delimiting QuickTools/Wham!
Hey Grunny! It’s the pest again. :P One of the things I like about QuickTools/Wham is how it only operates on those items showing on the rendered contribs page. We can further limit that by specifying a particular namespace, eliminating a namespace, specifying month to go back from, etc. I was wondering if it would be possible to add the ability to specify a starting date forwards, such that the only entries displayed would be those after a particular date or month? This would be especially useful when working with IP edits since it would permit one to focus on a single day or block of edits for especially dynamic IP addresses where it is only one anonymous editor’s edits at that IP address on which one wants to focus. Thanks! — Spike  Toronto  05:12, February 2, 2013 (UTC)
