http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia_talk:File_copyright_tags could use installation of an archival bot. It has manually archived pages; the archiver retired years ago. Could someone with familiarity setting up auto-archiving of a talk page that has extant manual archives please offer some quidance on how to set it up for auto-archival? I've no idea how to set it up so that, e.g. archive search is available from the main page and works smoothly over the old and new archives. I've no idea if it's possible to do so or if the archives 'll end up all mangled.

- Hi Elvey. I'll be happy to help set it up. With what frequency would you like the archives to be (years/months)? —Theopolisme 05:47, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
- Hi, Theo. Thanks. I guess I'd say archive threads aged more than 2 months. A new archive when maxarchsize is met (I guess the default 150000 is fine) makes the most sense to me. The last archive was "/Archive 9 (August 2007–December 2008)"; the stuff needing archival now looks like it'll fit in one archive, which I guess would be "/Archive 10 (December 2008–September 2012)". I'm not sure if I've understood your question, so I offered answers given a few interpretations.--Elvey (talk) 06:11, 25 November 2012 (UTC) --Elvey (talk) 16:27, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
removing vandalism at the same time at Henry Samson
I was rollbacking the vandalism not creating it. Please delete the reference to my name with regard to the vandalism. Thanks. http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Henry_Samson&action=history The vandalism was created by User talk:24.181.178.175 someone you have tagged before.

- I looked into the history and your talk page. I didn't see Cluebot NG reverting your edit. --Webclient101 01:50, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
Unconstructive good-faith edits: false-positive?
If ClueBot NG has reverted a disruptive/unconstructive edit that appears to have been made in good faith (for example, talking about how to improve the article on the article itself rather than the talk page), is it appropriate to report that as a false-positive?

- Good question. That's exactly what happened at Eastern gray squirrel (1362325). Modal Jig (talk) 23:36, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
