User:SharedIPArchiveBot
 | This user account is a bot operated by Petrb (talk). It is used to make repetitive automated or semi-automated edits that would be extremely tedious to do manually, in accordance with the bot policy. This bot does not yet have the approval of the community, or approval has been withdrawn or expired, and therefore shouldn't be making edits that appear to be unassisted except in the operator's or its own user and user talk space. Administrators: if this bot is making edits that appear to be unassisted to pages not in the operator's or its own userspace, please block it. |
 | This bot runs on Wikimedia Toolforge. Administrators: If this bot needs to be blocked due to a malfunction, please remember to disable autoblocks so that other Toolforge bots are not affected. |
This bot exists to regularly archive the talk pages of shared and dynamic IP addresses. Written by Petrb and designed with help of Maryana and Steven (from the Wikimedia Foundation), it does this in order to archive old warnings and notifications on behalf of IP editors from shared addresses, who normally are unable to request this for themselves.
Important: This bot is currently only running as a two-month trial for its approved request, per the consensus on VPR. This bot will archive old talk page threads for those in Category:Wikipedia user talk pages of shared IP addresses with messages older than two weeks, unless there is a current block notice. The bot will wait 14 days after a block notice is expired to archive any page with such threads.
This bot task, described above, is an experiment, not a permanent change to the system. It will only archive half of the talk pages in the category for two months, and by working with WP:UWTEST, we will analyze whether archiving regularly on behalf of shared IPs has a positive or negative impact on their editing patterns. If you notice any technical errors in the archiving process, please contact Petrb. If you have general concerns about the bot's task, please contact Maryana or Steven Walling.
