False positives and false negativesIf you believe that ClueBot NG has mistakenly identified a good edit as vandalism, please follow the directions in the warning it gave or click here. Please do not report it on this talk page. It takes less time to report the case to the correct location, and we can handle it more effectively there.If you believe that ClueBot NG has missed an edit that is vandalism, again do not report it here. ClueBot is unable to catch all vandalism. Just revert the edit and warn the editor. We are aware that there is an issue with reporting false positives. A fix is being worked on.

ClueBot NG issue
This issue has been raised here before but it was previously archived without a response from the bot operators. I think I know why ClueBot NG isn't reporting users to AIV. It may have happened when its edit summary was changed to "Edit by (username/IP) has been reverted by ClueBot NG due to possible noncompliance with Misplaced Pages guidelines. Report False Positive? (Report #) (Bot)", but after it was changed back to the original edit summary, that must have broken the bot when reporting users. Pinging User:Cobi and User:Rich Smith. — MRD2014 15:23, 19 January 2019 (UTC)
- Cobi Rich Smith is there any update on this so far? I've just come across this edit, the user already had a level 4 warning for a personal attack on Shellwood so the bot should have reported this user to AIV. However it didn't.-- 5 albert square (talk) 09:04, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
- ClueBot NG just reported a user to AIV. Hopefully it has been fixed. — MRD2014 00:44, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
- I'll watch it for the next few days but hopefully it is now back reporting at AIV. MRD2014 I emailed pretty much everyone on ClueBot NG's user page earlier to try and get it fixed. Welcome back ClueBot NG - AIV's missed ya!-- 5 albert square (talk) 01:12, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
- DamianZaremba if it was you that fixed this - thank you

Bug Report
I have noticed that ClueBotNG does not warn users correctly. If a warning already exists for the current month, but was not issued by ClueBot, it will create a new heading for the month with a level one warning, even if the user had already received a level 4 warning earlier in the month. JebTalk at me here 14:13, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
- That's not a bug Jebcubed. I'm sure I remember this being mentioned before - I just can't find whereabouts for this bot. I'm sure Cobi will correct me if I'm wrong. CBNG starts the warning process from the start again if a certain amount of time has passed - from memory it's 48 hours for the bot. As it then reverts back to the level 1 warning and therefore starting the process again, this is why it creates a new header.-- 5 albert square (talk) 02:17, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
- I was noticing this behavior within ~24 hours. I saw some instances where someone had already left a level 1 warning less than an hour before ClueBot, and ClueBot created a new month header with another level 1 warning. I think that it isn't part of what you've pointed out above 5 albert square. JebTalk at me here 13:58, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
Archiving Errors
Its appears that ClueBot III is archiving sections at WP:GL/ILL off by a month. Pbroks13 (talk) 18:31, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
- yes, Can someone take a look at my talk page history explain why the threads are archived to 2018 archive instead of 2019 archive. thanks in advance. --DBigXrayᗙ 15:34, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
- Because the natural age of archival on your page is set to 3800 hours. 3800 is 158 days. 158 days ago is still 2018. -- Cobi 00:27, 10 March 2019 (UTC)
