Igloo bug
I was running Ingloo tonight and reported a vandal to AIV. [1] But, the vandal was already listed by ClueBot NG in the bot section. Is there any way to prevent this? Cheers, →♠Gƒoley↔Four♣←`
requested speedy deletion (redundant)
I moved the list to this page: [2] to standardize it with [3] and similar pages. Please delete, or redirect the other page. Thanks!
Igloo
I haven't bugged you about this in a while, have I? You must be bored. Anyhoo, I have a suggestion for something to change on it whenever you get around to it. Currently, the "-full history-" link opens the page history on whichever tab/window you opened Igloo from. Would it be possible to change that to opening the history in a new tab/window? Quite often, I end up closing the tab that I opened it from, and then the link doesn't work; obviously, it is raher annoying to copy the page title, open another tab, load the article, and the nclick the history button. If that is something you could do, it would be fantastic. It isn't urgent, or anything like that, so you can put it at the bottom of your to-do list, but if you could do it at some point, I would be very grateful. I still think Igloo is a wonderful tool; you did a great job! ~~ Hi878 (Come shout at me!) 01:04, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
Also, do you know why Igloo wouldn't have flagged this? Thought I'd let you know; it seemed rather odd. ~~ Hi878 (Come shout at me!) 01:22, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

Privacy
I believe there are issues with your implementation. I've posted those here. Kindly, Jon@talk:~$ 19:23, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
- It's unfortunate that you chose to go directly to ANI rather than bringing your specific concerns to me directly. I am now watching the discussion. Ale_Jrbtalk 21:01, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
- Not too unfortunate... I needed a wide spread of opinion on this one. I've removed the thread by private request. I will tell you that it was only after I started adapted the script for use on another WMF wiki, that I discovered the bug. I would suggest please to remove that, and allow the sysops here to do what they volunteered to do. If there is an abuser, they can block. Giving up our IP to useracct correlation is too much oif a price to ask. Respectfully submitted, Jon@talk:~$ 22:58, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
- I meant that your obvious desire to get some form of enforcement demand from ANI means it is now impossible to enter into a reasonable dialogue with you on the subject - whether you feel that is unfortunate is, of course, a matter of opinion. If you have discovered a bug, which I don't think you have, please feel free to report it here or on the igloo talk page. Finally, as a sysop here, I feel I am well acquainted with their abilities - and interfering to prevent abuse of my private server is not one of their abilities.
