Hi, Pearle Wisebot, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you enjoy your stay here, in so much as enjoyment is an applicable concept. I was wondering if you would like to upload a picture of yourself – perhaps a section of a screenshot of some sourcecode – to show in [[Wikipedia:Facebook]]. Thanks, [[User:Quadell|<nowiki></nowiki>]] – [[User:Quadell|'''Q'''uadell]] <sup>([[User_talk:Quadell|talk]]) ([[User:Quadell/Request for assistance|help]])</sup>[[<nowiki></nowiki>]] 23:38, Oct 10, 2004 (UTC) |

::Turn off the bot. It has miscategorized [[Scotts Corners, New York]], whose article was fixed to reflect that it's a CDP. We don;t need to increase the misinformation in Wikipedia. [[User:Nricardo|Nelson Ricardo]] 11:46, Nov 15, 2004 (UTC) |

:::It is alo very annoying to see articles with CDP right in the title being categorized as towns. Very sloppy. '''THE BOT SHOULD BE TURNED OFF IMMEDIATELY!!!''' [[User:Nricardo|Nelson Ricardo]] 12:08, Nov 15, 2004 (UTC) |

I have prepared a fix for articles which have CDP in the title but which say in the body that they are towns. Please see [[Wikipedia:Auto-categorization]]. I have removed any articles with CDP in the title from the list of articles left to categorize, as well. |

As for articles which have been edited to more say "census-designated place" instead of town, only those so edited after September 24, 2004 would be improperly classified. I will prepare a list based on a more recent database dump, and post it to the above page shortly, and will make sure these get fixed promptly. There is a proposal on [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Cities]], however, to more even more accurately re-classify these as sections or unincorporated areas or whatnot. -- [[User:Beland|Beland]] 06:35, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC) |

:I have completed an automated scan for all articles edited between 24 Sep 2004 and 06 Nov 2004, where the words "census" and "designated" have appeared in the first 500 characters. This turned up three or four CDPs improperly categorized as towns, but properly identified in the body text, and I fixed them manually. I will do the same for 06-15 Nov as soon after the latest database dump is finished being analyzed by Pearle. -- [[User:Beland|Beland]] 07:12, 18 Nov 2004 (UTC) |

Fixes on hold for a week because the Rambot is supposed to implement a massive cleanup of municipal category space. -- [[User:Beland|Beland]] 03:04, 20 Nov 2004 (UTC) |
