- Notices
To make a request:
- Administrators can edit the page directly.
- Non-administrators: Feel free to ping me directly with {{subst:ping|Magog the Ogre}}. Since I cannot promise that I will respond promptly, please add {{Edit request}} and an administrator will take a look.
- Update 2023-01-30: I'm not sure how this isn't common sense for anyone who's used this site for more than a few days, but I guess it needs to be said. You need to transclude to the actual template, not just link to it if you want this page to get added to the edit requests for when I'm not around.

- Hard omissions
I've added the concept of "hard" omissions to the galleries. If the bot sees one of these categories on the file, it will never include it.
To give an example:
- My own gallery is for Multilingual legend
- This would normally include Sutton Nicholls, A New map of Gallia Cisalpina & Graecia Magna (FL37479375 2590657).jpg via English-language maps.
- However, I have opted out of any pages in Eran Laor Cartographic Collection, so it was omitted.
Regarding depth:
- I have set the depth set at 0, so it applies only to files directly under Eran Laor Cartographic Collection.
- If I set the depth to 1, it would omit child categories of Category:Eran Laor Cartographic Collection.
- If I set to 2, children of children
- etc.
This is a useful but powerful feature. I recommend using it sparingly. If you request a depth too high, you are likely to exclude a bunch of images you want, and there will be nothing in the logs indicating why. Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 22:39, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
User:P170/NeueBilderTrier: Regular deletion of images older than 6 months
edit{{Edit request}} Dear @Magog the Ogre: (or anyone who could kindly help out here), please delete images on the site User:P170/NeueBilderTrier older than 6 months regularly (and stop the full removal process as announced in User_talk:P170#Daily_gallery_updater_has_failed_on_User:P170/NeueBilderTrier if necessary). Sometimes I need some time to have a look at all the images but if I don't make it within 6 months it's my own fault :-) Thank you! P170 (talk) 20:07, 19 June 2024 (UTC)
- @P170: that feature isn't supported by the bot. You can manually prune the images, or use separate galleries for each month. Magog the Ogre (talk) (contribs) 03:46, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
