IRCEdit

Hey az, i was just thinking about the good ole days and wondering how you been. You should pm me on irc or something so we can have a chat, it's been too long. :P scoot4.pngscooties 16:39, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Site stats Edit

Hi! I'm sorry to ask you directly, but I have a problem with a script, I copied your code for the "sitemeter", but I run into a problem: I wrote a whole explanation on this forum. I'll summarize: I added a stats counter to my wiki, its code is this one 

<!-- Histats.com  START  (standard)-->
<script type="text/javascript">document.write(unescape("%3Cscript src=%27http://s10.histats.com/js15.js%27 type=%27text/javascript%27%3E%3C/script%3E"));</script>
<a href="http://www.histats.com" target="_blank" title="statistiche contatore" ><script  type="text/javascript" >
try {Histats.start(1,1597101,4,28,115,60,"00011111");
Histats.track_hits();} catch(err){};
</script></a>
<noscript><a href="http://www.histats.com" target="_blank"><img  src="http://sstatic1.histats.com/0.gif?1597101&101" alt="statistiche contatore" border="0"></a></noscript>
<!-- Histats.com  END  -->

Now, I added it to the main page with this code <verbatim>Counter-home</verbatim> which transcludes the code from MediaWiki:Counter-home. The counter has to be placed in each page of the wiki, so with this script I added it to the side-rail, under the "new page" button, but here the problem: with that script, if I don't remove every line-breaks, the counter won't load, but if I remove the line-break between 

try {Histats.start(1,1597101,4,28,115,60,'00011111');
Histats.track_hits();} catch(err){};

the page won't load (it causes a loop). Currently I'm using a limited version of the counter which doesn't use java scripts, but I'd like to use the complete code. Can you help me? There is an "invisible" version of the counter so we can

  • correct the script in a way it won't cause errors, the "verbatin" solution works, but I cannot use it in that script (it isn't rendered)
  • load the invisible counter code in the side-rail, or in every page or in another place you want.

If you can help me with this I'll appreciate it. I also read the Forum:Sitemeter, but it wasn't of any help with this. Leviathan_89 15:21, August 11, 2011 (UTC)

Your RuneScape Account Edit

Hey az, I would like to confirm that you still play RuneScape. I noticed that your account, azliq7, has been constantly logged into RuneScape every single time that I happen to log in, which spans a large variety of hours/time zones. Furthermore, you never seem to say anything, and don't respond to me. I would just like to make sure that it is you and that your account has not been compromised. Thanks, --King LiquidheliumTalk 13:00, August 21, 2011 (UTC)

In follow up to this, given concerns from several users about your account being compromised, I have temporarily ranked you down to recruit until you reply here [on-wiki] that it is actually you - at which point I would happily rank you back to admin if you so desire. Thanks, Quests FTW! Gaz Lloyd AwesomeEvents!99s 14:56, August 21, 2011 (UTC)
Yup, not me. Just sent an appeal. When did you start seeing "me" in RuneScape? I last logged in back when they released Clan Camp.   az talk   21:29, August 21, 2011 (UTC)
I can't put a finger on an exact date, but it's been going on for at least three weeks. --King LiquidheliumTalk 21:31, August 21, 2011 (UTC)
23 July. And that person actually bought a membership for a month. Expires in 2 days... EPIC FAIL!   az talk   21:37, August 21, 2011 (UTC)
Gareth kicked up from the clan when we found out it wasn't you. If you want to rejoin just pop in and ask for an invite. --King LiquidheliumTalk 21:52, August 21, 2011 (UTC)

I just logged in and found out that I had lost alot of coins and items... does Jagex rollback compromised accounts? If not, I'm frakked.   az talk   22:00, August 21, 2011 (UTC)

Unfortunately, Jagex doesn't do anything of the sort. --King LiquidheliumTalk 22:13, August 21, 2011 (UTC)
Okay, thanks.   az talk   22:14, August 21, 2011 (UTC)

SitemeterEdit

Hey Az, do you think you could give me access to the sitemeter account (sm6runescapewiki) you're using to log page views? I would like to use it to compare the results of Special:SearchDigest as a percentage instead of as a single number. ʞooɔ 22:14, August 26, 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, I was a bit unclear. I need the total number of page views and visits (really just the page views) per day, going back at least to the 24th of July. I would like to use this to offset any normal daily or seasonal fluctuations in a sitemeter I am keeping of my own that tracks the number of searches that do not go to pages. ʞooɔ 14:02, August 29, 2011 (UTC)
Do you get e-mail alerts for stat updates, and could you include the actual values of the numbers so I don't have to guess? Sorry for all the hassle. ʞooɔ 00:01, August 30, 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, that helps a lot. Thanks. ʞooɔ 04:22, August 31, 2011 (UTC)

RE:Forum:A long overdue cleanupEdit

Sorry if it seemed like I was using you as an example for account security; I didn't mean for it to be that way. I also understand that you require administrative tools to run your bot and didn't meant to pin you as an inactive administrator who doesn't require the tools to which they have access. I'll strike out the comments in the thread relating to you as per your wishes. In any case, I apologize for the inconvenience. Suppa chuppa T C CVRC 19:59, August 29, 2011 (UTC)

Tell Azbot...Edit

File:GEMH Vampire dust.png' has been moved to File:GEMH Vampyre dust.png in accordance with a name change. I'm guessing you need to amend this with azbot since it updated the image by recreating the former page. --Henneyj 23:10, September 9, 2011 (UTC)

So you opposed the holiday names? Edit

Just a small message. About 50 people searched for Halloween event 2011 (or something similar). One thousand more searched for Deathcon II (source). Just sayin'. Smile Zaros symbol.svg Fswe1 Talk • My images • My gallery Seren symbol.svg 07:35, October 21, 2011 (UTC)

Sitemeter browsers Edit

Hey, I saw this sitemeter image, and I am very surprised Safari has so many users, and Chrome is not even listed. Could you please give me a link to the place your bot gets the data from? It seems quite unlikely this is true. Maybe SiteMeter lists Safari and Chrome both as Safari, as they both use Webkit. Could you please check that? Thanks, JOEYTJE50TALK_Please add your SoF rewards,

Re: PNGOptimisationBot Edit

I see from my bot's logs, after my computer lost power, that it did reoptimise the GEMH images; I can't change the settings while it's still doing the initial optimisation run. When it's done, I'll block the images from being reoptimised, using the regex ^File:GEM[HV], and let it process the request page again. Apologies.  a proofreader ▸  02:44, November 25, 2011 (UTC)
File:GEMH Redberries.png File:GEMH ⅔ cake.png File:GEMH ⅔ chocolate cake.png were all optimised during this run, according to the bot's console. The bot only uploads files back to the wiki if it can manage to get at least 10% more recompression, which IMO is a lot (though the graphs are simple, so they're small to begin with).
I probably just use more tools on the images than you do for AzBot; I use OptiPNG and 2 programs from AdvanceCOMP. You can see the command lines I use for those tools in User:PNGOptimisationBot/Source/PNGOptimisationBot.java, in the optimize() method.  a proofreader ▸  04:47, November 25, 2011 (UTC)
2nd edit: Looks like the ⅔ causes the bot to think it has uploaded the file successfully when it hasn't; only GEMH Redberries shows a log entry from PNGOptimisationBot.  a proofreader ▸  04:50, November 25, 2011 (UTC)

PNGOptimisationBot GE images Edit

This message is a follow-up to User talk:A proofreader#Re: PNGOptimisationBot because you posted about the GEMH images, and is cross-posted to User talk:Kytti khat.

Whoops, User:PNGOptimisationBot optimised a few GEMH images again due to incorrectly-implemented regex. I stopped it at File:GEMH Agility potion (4).png and retested the regex before restarting the bot. It should not attempt to optimise any more GEMH images.

However, 

Jan 13, 2012 5:46:26 PM com.wikia.runescape.PNGOptimisationBot2 optimize
INFO: Uploaded a new version of File:GEMH_Agility_potion_(3).png (8,720 -> 7,681 bytes)
This means that there is more room for optimisation. You may want to look at the optimisation tool command lines I use in User:PNGOptimisationBot/Source/PNGOptimisationBot.java, in the optimize method, as a starting point.  a proofreader ▸  23:17, January 13, 2012 (UTC)

RSW Clan Chat Edit

Hi Az, your RuneScape account is currently under consideration to be kicked from the RSW clan chat due to inactivity. If you still want your spot in the clan, please let me know or gain some xp in the next two weeks, and I will take you off the list. Otherwise, your account will be kicked in roughly two weeks. Thanks. --King LiquidheliumTalk 19:33, February 5, 2012 (UTC)

Never mind, I'll take you off the kick list. --King LiquidheliumTalk 15:26, February 13, 2012 (UTC)

ImageRenamer Edit

Is Special:WantedFiles full of files that have red links on pages but move log entries pointing to their new names? If so, I could probably compile a list and test the requests that way. Note that I intentionally limited the requests allowed for the bot to 10 files per request for testing, so you could probably submit one or two requests. I'm still unsure of how well my bot functions, you see. Smile  a proofreader ▸  07:31, February 15, 2012 (UTC)
You do need custodian rights to move files using the bot, using a Special:AbuseFilter rule to deny edits to non-custodians. Otherwise, people could use the bot to exercise the custodian right by proxy, which is a kind of privilege escalation attack.
Also, the bot is processing your request now Smile  a proofreader ▸  07:53, February 15, 2012 (UTC)
The request is complete after having been stuck for 40 minutes on User talk:Lvl 3 skils3/Archive1 with network timeouts. It has finished on RuneScape:Administrator requests because the archived forum pages are protected, but the bot needs to null-edit them (i.e. add a newline which MediaWiki ignores) to fix the erroneous references in Special:WantedFiles and Special:WhatLinksHere/File:Spirit wolf detail.png.  a proofreader ▸  09:28, February 15, 2012 (UTC)
Derp. Pages are protected against edit=autoconfirmed and the bot hasn't been alive for the required period of time yet. (Thanks Matthew2602 for telling me!) Otherwise, it works fine, and has edited a few redlinks out of user and user talk pages for your request.  a proofreader ▸  09:37, February 15, 2012 (UTC)
I added a warning at the top of the request page about autoconfirmed protection. Hopefully that will distract everyone for a while... ^_^  a proofreader ▸  09:48, February 15, 2012 (UTC)

GEMH raw dataEdit

Hey Az,

I'm trying to do some analysis of Grand Exchange prices (specifically, finding price correlation between item pairs with a displacement of n days). Since you make the GEMH graphs, I was wondering if you had the raw data that you use to make all of the graphs -- all of the price points for all 3,500 items, hopefully with a date value attached. Do you have this information handy, or could you tell me how to generate it?

Thanks,

ʞooɔ 09:18, February 24, 2012 (UTC)

How do you weed out vandalism and incorrect prices so they don't end up on the graph? ʞooɔ 23:50, February 26, 2012 (UTC)
Sorry to bug you again but I never got an answer. How did you remove the incorrect prices from your graph? ʞooɔ 04:42, March 6, 2012 (UTC)
I completely and utterly missed that. Damn revisions. Thanks Lol ʞooɔ 18:26, March 6, 2012 (UTC)
Urk! I should have told you. Anyway, I came up with that value by removing the unneeded items, and adding in the new ones, dividing them by their current prices. I altered it until the CTI matched the current price, which was something like 160. I'll look into some new items for other indices, but I think it's good to keep a variety of items in the CTI. The anon asking about values of money is just looking for the reciprocal of the CTI (I think)...it would be more difficult to trace the value of other currencies, because usually people will buy the best item with those currencies, so an index would be useless. ʞooɔ 22:42, May 3, 2012 (UTC)
I believe that's correct. BUT, I'm not sure it's a good idea to alter the previous data. Is it possible to use the index as it stood from before February 12th, and just use the updated data from now on? When new components are added to the Dow Jones, that doesn't change the prices from before then -- it just adjusts from then on. ʞooɔ 01:48, May 4, 2012 (UTC)

I"m very hesitant to actually change the CTI data from earlier -- if it was 125 in January 2011, it should stay that way, and not be altered by changes to the complexiion of the index. I understand that it's probably much more difficult to calculate the CTI using two different sets of items, but it would be disorienting to readers to see a different graph than they're used to. ʞooɔ 18:51, May 4, 2012 (UTC)

The FAQ looks awesome. Yay numbers! Anyway, I'm looking at the last few revisions of the CTI graph, and the second-to-last one looks markedly different from the others, especially in early 2010. What am I missing here that would make it look the same? How hard would it be to just take the values from before the date I changed it, and keep them as absolute? (This is not a rhetorical question, I really have no idea how difficult it would be Lol) ʞooɔ 20:38, May 4, 2012 (UTC)

Re:Template:Infobox Item Edit

Why would a message at the top of a template make RS:BB invalid? I asked around in IRC and Special:Chat, and both chats told me to be bold and add it, so I did. If you see any problems with it, what would those be? JOEYTJE50TALK_Please add your SoF rewards,

I could also hide the template unless the death parameter is defined. Would that be better? JOEYTJE50TALK_Please add your SoF rewards,
