cure cancer

and grant the patent for it to hagnat --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{[talk] [wcdz]} 12:49, 6 May 2011 (BST)

It's on the todo list.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 14:21, 6 May 2011 (BST)

List of pages in category

I saw that your bot can make a list of all pages in a category. Can I ask you to run it for me and list all pages in Category:Uncategorized Suggestions? Just put the list on my talk page or some subpage in my namespace. It'll make it easier for me to sort through them and recategorize them. Thanks muchly. ~ _{14:06, 12 May 2011 (UTC)}

Yup. Done.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 16:01, 12 May 2011 (BST)

Thanks again. Should help a lot in planning an attack on the rest of these suggestions. BTW, do you need Uncategorized Suggestions deleted? ~ _{16:05, 12 May 2011 (UTC)}

No problem. Yeah, thanks for deleting that: I screwed up one of the parameters.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 11:47, 13 May 2011 (BST)

Another category pull

Can you generate a list of pages in the following categories:

• Category:Successful Promotions Candidacies
• Category:Unaccepted Nominations
• Category:Unsuccessful Promotions Candidacies
• Category:Users with Multiple Promotion Bids
• Category:Withdrawn Promotions Candidacies

If possible, create the lists on User:Vapor/sandbox/Bids with each list under its own header. Thanks. ~ _{21:12, 1 June 2011 (UTC)}

Sure, I should be able to get it done by the end of the day; I'll try to get the bot to dump them under different headers.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 09:23, 2 June 2011 (BST)

Thanks. Going to do some statistics on bids. ~ _{15:20, 2 June 2011 (UTC)}

Right, kinda done: It didn't like putting them all onto one page, so I used subpages.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 17:44, 2 June 2011 (BST)

Nothing a little copypasta won't fix. Thanks for running it. ~ _{17:46, 2 June 2011 (UTC)}

No problem. Yeah, though the fact that it cann't append text is something that I'll get fixed; all my other scripts do it and it's not difficult, this is just the odd one out.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 18:23, 2 June 2011 (BST)

Click Template

Template:Click - replace usage with the wiki syntax. Also nice job replacing my DR bot :D --  RoosterDragon  23:15, 2 June 2011 (BST)

Will get this done soon. Thanks, it seems to be working out quite well :D. BTW, how were your bots coded (language, etc.)?--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 10:12, 5 June 2011 (BST)

Uhm? You're doing it wrong. All of the HTML div code can be excluded it was for formatting the link cover, along with height and width being able to be appended to the image code. Same with the mouseovers. --Karek^{maps 2.0?!} 10:56, 5 June 2011 (BST)

hmm, I assumed that the line "This code has been simplified to make use of this feature" meant that I could just run a straight subst:. I'll run through and rollback the edits.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 13:32, 5 June 2011 (BST)
