Hi, this question seems odd, but the amount and rapidity of edits it seems like you are an bot. If so, you should request a bot flag from [[User:ALeXmOrA]]. This doesn't mean your edits are not welcome, but they are spamming [[Special:RecentChanges]] a lot so quickly looking through the edits of other editors isn't that easy (and I like to do that from time to time to check if they are legit). — [[User:XZise|xZise]] <small>&#91;[[User talk:XZise|talk]]&#93;</small> 06:44, 8 April 2014 (CDT)

So at least [[:Category:Orphaned articles]] and especially [[:Category:Uncategorized]] are not necessary.

Are you (partially) a bot?

Hi, this question seems odd, but the amount and rapidity of edits it seems like you are an bot. If so, you should request a bot flag from User:ALeXmOrA. This doesn't mean your edits are not welcome, but they are spamming Special:RecentChanges a lot so quickly looking through the edits of other editors isn't that easy (and I like to do that from time to time to check if they are legit). — xZise [talk] 06:44, 8 April 2014 (CDT)

Hi, no I am not a bot ;-), but I do use the AWB software which greatly speeds editing by autoloading pages and suggesting edits. They have to be manually confirmed though. I understand about spamming the recent changes page though, but my edits should be less frequent in the future. It is a pity you can't filter by user. Onco p53 (talk) 07:06, 8 April 2014 (CDT)

Orphaned and uncategorised pages

Hi, there are already special pages which list you orphaned pages:

So at least Category:Orphaned articles and especially Category:Uncategorized are not necessary. I'm not sure how exactly the MediaWiki software treated that, but I guess articles in Category:Uncategorized are not in Special:UncategorizedPages, because they are in a category. The templates can stay (if they don't automatically add the category), or there is a way to tell that a category shouldn't count as categorised. And Category:Articles with too few wikilinks seems fine, as it doesn't look like there is an equivalent in Special:SpecialPages. — xZise [talk] 06:44, 8 April 2014 (CDT)

Modules

Unfortunately this wiki does not support Lua modules like Wikipedia does. I noticed that, when I deleted your Ambox template. By the way I designed {{Box}} like the Template:Ambox before it switched to a Lua module. — xZise [talk] 06:44, 8 April 2014 (CDT)
