== Question regarding ClueBot ==

Can I please see the source? (A github url for ClueBot) ?
Please make the documentation clarify exactly why and when NG creates "duplicate" user talk page sections, such as adding a second - identical - "October 2019" section when an editor (or even NG itself) has already created one. Please provide a succinct summary AND policy links, not just one or the other. I checked the FAQ but it didn't help. I did a casual browse of the archives and sure enough: this has been asked before. Time to improve your docs! :) Thanks ] (]) 14:11, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
Is it being run on someone's PC or is it being run in the cloud?

Question regarding ClueBot

About ClueBot III JustArchiveThis

Why the default are set to |format=Y/F when format= %%i is better according to the documentation?

Also can I to switch to numbered formats later? Or it's not possible because it will break the bot? - Ivan530 (Talk) 14:31, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

Because someone added that comment to the documentation without updating User:ClueBot III/JustArchiveThis. But I prefer dated archives, myself, because they just make more sense to me, but it's a debated issue. From a technical perspective, it's (slightly) better for the bot and the Misplaced Pages servers to use dated archives since then the bot doesn't have to "find" the right archive by checking the sizes of archives, it just knows based on the date. This isn't a big deal, but when it comes to defaults for a popular bot where most people won't care one way or another, it's better generally that the default be the more efficient option. — Naomi Amethyst 23:56, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
