I was wondering why my bot wasn't doing anything when I realized, it wasn't even on the crontab. I have added it now.—cyberpower ^Chat_Offline 03:22, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, there was a crontab entry. The reason why it wasn't doing anything is because Hazard-SJ filed a BRFA for the wrong task after this one was filed.—cyberpower ^Chat_Online 14:14, 13 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Trial complete. No issues found. Contribs—cyberpower ^Chat_Offline 04:04, 20 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
