    Why is archiver bot not working?

    [edit]
    Swept in from the pub

    It hasn't been archiving my talk page for months now. Any reason to this? SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta.wikimedia) 12:12, 31 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

    @SHB2000: It looks like the archive page is protected. Only template editors and administrators can edit User talk:SHB2000/Archive 2021, [1] and ArchiverBot is not one. --Whym (talk) 11:50, 24 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
    I made ArchiverBot a template editor a while ago, but maybe it's because ArchiverBot isn't an autoconfirmed user? (if then, a 'crat would need to assign the flag) SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta.wikimedia) 11:53, 24 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
    You are right, the bot had the necessary user rights since earlier this month. What was missing was specifying protected edits as one of allowed action types at Special:OAuthConsumerRegistration. It is an additional layer of preventing unintended bot edits. I have now updated the registration and it seems it works now. Whym (talk) 10:19, 26 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
    thanks :) SHB2000 (talk | contribs | meta.wikimedia) 10:22, 26 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
