[edit] SieBot

Please give a bot bit to SieBot, so it will not flood your RC as it adds interwiki links using pywikipedia's interwiki.py. SieBot is active on about 140 Wikipedias. See the user page of the bot for more details, or check a complete overview of its activities here. Cheers! Siebrand (talk) 09:53, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Synthebot

Dear all, this is to request a bot flag for Synthebot. Its technical information is summarized below.

Further technical information is available on its main page. Thank you in advance. Regards, --Julian 18:15, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Not done; a local bot flag is no longer needed. This is a global bot, and this wiki recently enabled global bots. —Pathoschild 06:27:43, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Slow growth

Your Wikipedia has been here for quite sometime, and yet you only have 26 pages and you still have an English main page and even a more very English logo and interface. I suggest that you start translating these into your language if you truly want to be an encyclopedia in your language. tl:User:Felipe Aira from the Tagalog Wikipedia.

[edit] Translating Mediawiki namespace

I inform you that a special Wiki already exists for translating mediawiki core messages in any language. You can personalize this wikipedia by translating them into Tumbuka language. Thanks.--Bertrand GRONDIN 16:07, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Bot policy

Hello. To facilitate steward granting of bot access, I suggest implementing the standard bot policy on this wiki. In particular, this policy allows stewards to automatically flag known interlanguage linking bots (if this page says that is acceptable), which form the vast majority of such requests. The policy also enables global bots on this wiki (if this page says that is acceptable), which are trusted bots that will be given bot access on every wiki that allows global bots.

This policy makes bot access requesting much easier for local users, operators, and stewards. To implement it we only need to create a redirect to this page from Project:Bot policy, and add a line at the top noting that it is used here. Please read the text at m:Bot policy before commenting. If you object, please say so; I hope to implement in one week if there is no objection, since it is particularly written to streamline bot requests on wikis with little or no community interested in bot access requests. --Luckas Blade 20:56, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Implemented. —Pathoschild 04:23:45, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Small request

Hello! I am a Polish wikipedian and I would like to ask you for your help - writing a new article about former Polish President who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1983 – Lech Wałęsa. I have looked for his biography in your Wikipedia but without success. Polish Wikipedians will be grateful for your help. Thank you so much in advance! PS you can find the English version of the article here. Best wishes from Poland, Patrol110 20:45, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
