Moderator duty: It locks every swap forum thread after three months of its inactivity. It helps with coin identification by providing search by image hints and reminding users that they should provide pictures
Catalogue duty: - Sets pieces in nonexistent countries as demonetized. - Translates most edge descriptions
- Fixes reccuring typos
- Fixes spelling and translates some comments on year lines
- Removes engravers and designers set as “unknown” or “?”
- Removes spaces after opening and before closing brackets (Some more bracket criteria will be part of semi-automatic checks later)

Wonderful news; maybe this could be arranged to lock old voting threads in the MPCC forum as well?
Also perhaps it could also cover old threads in all the other forums (but maybe with a more extended period, let's say maybe after six months of inactivity)? It's kind of annoying seeing a long dead thread from 2013 resurrected, I would always prefer a fresh new one.

Sorry but I would have to disagree with this. I have no problem with an old topic being revived with new interest and would hate for previous useful and informative threads to be cast into the abyss.

Ah, well, old threads would still remain readable and linkable by the general public, so I don't think they'd be cast into the abyss just yet; and one might make the same argument against locking old threads in the ID forum (which I noticed has happened!).
I do see your point though, no need to be sorry- perhaps there should be a function where members could petition for specific thread(s) to be unlocked?
1. delete all "KM# new" referencees, they are meaningless
2. format reference number, there are still a few "km#1" should be KM# 1
3. format and put decimal reference number in year comments at the very beginning of the comment. this is very important to this website because coins like KM# 104.1 does not have its own page

Hi,
I found an old topic about the problem of identifying the Peruvian 1/2 sol from 1942 into its different sub-types, and since I had just made a documentation helping those guys, I was more than supprised to see, that a robot had completely closed the thread. Stubborn as I can be, I opened a new thread with exactly the same name, and guess what, I could do that, but the guys looking for an answer NEVER gets it.
How good is that? In my opinion, there is no need to block threads at all, if there is no activity, there is no activity, but if in this case I fall over it, researching "PERU 1/2 sol 1942", and find that I CANNOT add my comments to it, then it makes me feel frustrated to use a very polite word!

Made on purpose (locked after 3 months inactivity) to avoid thread revivals and ups from nowhere (and also avoid ads and scams that are using old threads to post messages) but you can still ask a mod to unlock the targeted thread and post again.

Hi
I have not yet written to Pejounet or Cyrillus, but can robot check also for glitches in data => why for instance if I put in querry "Slovenska vojska", this coin is not in search results?
Thanks!
Would it be possible to request Numista Robot assistance with setting all UK decimal issues (including all sub-currencies like Britannias, etc) to ruling authority Elizabeth II 1952-date?
Just because you can't see it ... doesn't mean it isn't there - Anon.
The robot just added the ruling authority Elizabeth II to all decimal UK coins.
For the question about search for "Slovenska vojska", I can't see any issue on my side. If the problem is still occurring, please open a separate topic.

Thank you very much, that saved me a huge amount of work

Oh, I did not know this robot exist. Ha ha... Pretty impressive.
Be kind to people. Sharing is Caring. Collect what you like and not by the Crowd.
To seek for perfection, it is too painful and there is a very high price to pay. To seek for something comfortable is more easy. To seek for nothing is even more easy.
It now sets coins as demonetized in countries which no longer exists! No more not demonetized Roman Empire coins! Xavier already set it up for most countries, and I will soon check for few leftovers.
Good morning, could I please request assistance from the Numista Robot with setting the ruling authority for all New Zealand decimal issues to Queen Elizabeth II.
