Nonexistent template at Japanese destroyer Kasumi (1902)

Something went wrong with Japanese destroyer Kasumi (1902). – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:57, 8 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, the fix was intuitive. – Jonesey95 (talk) 18:58, 8 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Wikimedia Hackathon Northwestern Europe 2026

Hello! I noticed you're a bot operator, so I thought you might be interested in a hackathon we're organizing: the Wikimedia Hackathon Northwestern Europe 2026, on 13–14 March in Arnhem, Netherlands.

It's a two-day, technically oriented hackathon bringing together Wikimedians from the region. Whether you want to work on bot frameworks, tools, or other technical projects, this could be a great opportunity to collaborate with fellow developers. Registration closes mid-January or when full. Let me know if there are any questions. Hope to see you there! Daanvr (talk) 10:16, 12 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Monkbot Task 22

Howdy. Wanted to see if I could impose on you to run Monkbot one more time to clean up the remaining transclusions of {{Infobox ship begin}} which are mostly User sandboxes. That way we can safely delete the templates and fully move to {{Infobox ship}}. Thanks in advance! Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 03:58, 13 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Why? When I used Monkbot task 20 to replace all of the many different {{lang-??}} templates with {{langx}}, I did not run the bot in user namespace. I see no reason to run task 22 in user space for this handful of templates.

So the issue is that those cannot be deleted until ALL transclusions are removed as doing so caused massive linter errors (see Special:Diff/1332546810/1332567399). I can manually do it but seeing as you already have a bot approved to do this I was hoping you could just do a quick run on the remaining 675 pages....

See Wikipedia:Bots/Noticeboard § running a bot approved for mainspace in user space.
