| 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) | |||

| Would it be possible for you to put Cluebot on the Commons? Or could you work with the maintainer of Miszabot/Sigmabot on the Commons to add the ability to automatically repair incoming links? | |||

| :::That is, unfortunately, not enough.

| ::Yes, but I want more people to use User:Cluebot III. People are used to days. With Miszabot/Sigmabot it is common for the days to be changed from 14 days to 30 days to 90 days, etc. depending on how busy the talk page is. This would be an additional parameter. Unless it is possible to expand the capability of the age parameter to accept values like "30 days". -- ] (]) 11:01, 1 November 2019 (UTC) | |||
| == Defaulting to date-based rather than numbered archives in JustArchiveThis == | |||
| The ] start with a quickstart guide, which basically says to subst ] and you're good to go. I think that's a great idea, but I was a little surprised to see that it sets up year/month based archives rather than numbered. Wouldn't numbered archives be better for the average user? ] says it's "the most common, and easiest" method. I would think numbered archives would be better for low-traffic talk pages, which, statistically, is most of them. Thoughts on changing JustArchiveThis to use <code>format= %%i</code> and a <code>maxarchsize</code>? | |||
| Another alternative would be making ] and also mentioning it in the quickstart section. ] (]) 01:09, 2 November 2019 (UTC) | |||

Question regarding ClueBot
Can I please see the source? (A github url for ClueBot) ? Is it being run on someone's PC or is it being run in the cloud? I have more questions than I have answers coming to this page.
