Flickr bot Malfunction Again!

Dear Admins and Other Users,

The Flickr bot has stopped working for almost 2 days now and the flickr backlog is now 3400+ images. Can someone fix the bot…again please? Something is not quite right with the flickrbot AntiCompositeNumber

Pinging the maintainers: @Eatcha, Multichill, Stang, Steinsplitter, WhitePhosphorus, and Zhuyifei1999: Best Regards, --Leoboudv (talk) 23:17, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is getting ridiculous. @AntiCompositeNumber, Is some form of auto-reboot possible either by the bot itself, or via weekly cron job? I think there is something wrong with it's handling of failed LRs. All the Best -- Chuck Talk 18:09, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Alachuckthebuck Yes, there are a few ways to do that. For iNaturalistReviewBot I have a health check set up, so that it touches a file every time it reviews a file or checks for files to review. If it doesn't do that for long enough (about 10 minutes in my case), the Toolforge infrastructure will automatically restart it.[1][2] Setting that up does take some knowledge of how the bot works, but it's fairly simple if you have that knowledge.

IPBE for CuratorBot

Hi. The account CuratorBot (talk · contributions · Statistics · Recent activity · block log · User rights log · uploads · Global account information) requires IPBE as the IP address where my OpenRefine runs is blocked as No-open proxies. Could an admin assign it please? Thanks! -- DaxServer (talk) 21:45, 20 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete topic pages which template cannot be added

Hi. These topic pages contains nothing but error. Since I cannot add Template:Speedydelete to the page, I have to nominate here:

Thanks! Пусть от победык победе ведёт! 09:56, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is all about Flow. I don't think deletion is appropriate. @阿南之人: Has this stuff been moved to archive? Fwiw, the use of Flow is deprecated. Regards, Aafi (talk) 10:46, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Aafi Here. Commons talk:Flow/tests Пусть от победык победе ведёт! 10:48, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As you have said, flow is deprecated. However, these error pages are left. So I it is appropriate to delete these to clear all flow pages. Пусть от победык победе ведёт! 10:55, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I will leave this open for a while, and see what my fellow admins have to say. Regards, Aafi (talk) 10:58, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There's also other reason that I'd perhaps report on Phabricator. Regards, Aafi (talk) 10:59, 24 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
