== Did my bot do something wrong? ==

Hello. I saw this revert and turned off my bot. The bot is supposed to remove blocked users from that page and both of those users seem to be blocked. If the bot continues to run it will remove them again and "edit war" as it has no functionality to realize if it is repeating itself.

Is there some reason you want those blocked users to remain? If there is a good reason I can alter the code of the bot to allow a report to be flagged to be ignored by the bot. ] 21:24, 7 February 2015 (UTC)

: No, fault is my end, turn it back on. I am on a mobile device and think the screen on Watchlist redrew under me as I was trying to diff an unrelated edit.
: As rollbacks are single-button it just happened.
: The refreshes from there as I tried to figure out what happened took a couple of minutes, then I reverted my revert.
: My apologies for causing you concern. Bot did nothing wrong, etc.

Hi, I'm George. Feel free to leave me a new message!

Back-ish

I was more or less offline on WP during 2014 due to the sudden death of my father followed immediately by hospitalization and eventual permanent care of my mother. While I had some snippets of time I was unable to dedicate enough time to keep up on WP developments and chose to step back and not try and stay half engaged. While the unfortunate situation is still present, I am moving back to engage in editing and participation again. Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 04:36, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

Answering your question

I am not a party to the GG arbcom case, as you saw. I had been given the notifications that the articles were under community DS. I edited the GG article and the talk page sporadicly (maybe 100-150 edits in the past 4 months) and have edited a user draft which attempted to condense the current article to something clear and readable. Other than that, there are no major interactions on the GG talk page. That is, of course, excepting my comments on the arbcom case itself, none of which have drawn warning or sanction.

I was more interested in if there was a history of known abusive contributions, which I didn't see any of but I was frankly not active at the times in question and had no idea.
It was possible HJM had seen something I didn't in a quick scan, but his response on his talk page seems to have indicated no.
I'm glad this all got sorted out. Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 23:11, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Did my bot do something wrong?

Hello. I saw this revert and turned off my bot. The bot is supposed to remove blocked users from that page and both of those users seem to be blocked. If the bot continues to run it will remove them again and "edit war" as it has no functionality to realize if it is repeating itself.

Is there some reason you want those blocked users to remain? If there is a good reason I can alter the code of the bot to allow a report to be flagged to be ignored by the bot. Chillum 21:24, 7 February 2015 (UTC)
