[edit] Please use the proper tools!

Man, you didn't take any notice of my last request, and I'm gonna block the bot if you carry on: {{WPBiography}} already has a parameter for auto-stubbing by bots; not only will it display the boilerplate text nicely formatted but it adds the talk page to a category. Please use the proper template parameter and quit adding a mass of ugly boilerplate text to talk pages!

This article is within the scope of WikiProject Biography. For more information, visit the project page.
Stub This article has been rated as Stub-Class on the project's quality scale. [FAQ]
This article has been automatically assessed as Stub-Class by WikiProject Biography because it uses a stub template.
  • If you agree with the assessment, please remove {{WPBiography}}'s auto=yes parameter from this talk page.
  • If you disagree with the assessment, please change it by editing the class parameter of the {{WPBiography}} template, removing {{WPBiography}}'s auto=yes parameter from this talk page, and removing the stub template from the article.

Also, you might want to use the Kingbotk plugin for WPBiography templating, as it will skip all known instances of the Bio template under the various names it can be found, tidy up the formatting etc. However, it doesn't understand the {{WikiProjectBannerShell}} template yet so you'd have to put that into "Skip if contains". --kingboyk (talk) 18:42, 13 January 2008 (UTC) (AWB developer, and de facto template guy for WPBiography)

Also, the correct name of the template is {{WPBiography}} (the name you use is a redirect), and the importance= parameter should be priority= (it's been renamed priority= since 2006). You shouldn't be doing this work if you can't get these basic details right. For example, every time somebody makes an importance= parameter active, it'll mean that later on my bot will have to come along and change it to priority. --kingboyk (talk) 01:18, 14 January 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Notability of Talk:Lenny Pelling

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Talk:Lenny Pelling, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Talk:Lenny Pelling seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Talk:Lenny Pelling, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.
