Hi GalStar! Hope you are doing well. It looks like GraphBot (BRFA · contribs · actions log · block log · flag log · user rights) is down; it hasn't edited in two weeks and Category:Graphs to Port (0) is clogged with 25 members. Are you able to give it a nudge? Thanks :) HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 00:54, 24 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'll second that, have a bunch of templates using graphs that need to be adjusted. Primefac (talk) 14:52, 3 January 2026 (UTC)[reply] I've restarted it ... let's see how this goes. GalStar (talk) (contribs) 22:56, 12 January 2026 (UTC)[reply] Apologies if I'm missing something in the documentation, but is the bot only editing the article space? There are a handful of templates that need to be converted but despite the restart a few days ago it doesn't look like they've been touched. Personally (speaking with my BAG hat on) I'm okay with the task being extended to this handful of pages if it means we can get this transition sorted. Primefac (talk) 18:11, 14 January 2026 (UTC)[reply] The bot edits any space. The errors for the templates are listed here: https://graphbot.toolforge.org/. I'm adding name parameters for Template:COVID-19 pandemic data/Nigeria medical cases, but Template:Chart of NZ vineyard area by variety over time is simply not supported by the chart extension. GalStar (talk) (contribs) 20:12, 14 January 2026 (UTC)[reply] Fair enough, thanks. I'll take a look at things. Primefac (talk) 22:37, 14 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, it's been over three months since it was decided at CfD to rename Category:Graphs to Port to Category:Pages with graphs to be ported by GraphBot, and this will require updates to your bot's code. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 08:42, 9 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

The code has been updated. GalStar (talk) (contribs) 22:57, 12 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

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) 23:17, 11 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
