Hello BracketBot, I'm back again to bother you about the article, Su Chih-fen. I checked the back-log of my work and found that I'd fixed the typo raised by you on 11:40, 2 June 2013. Pls bear with me. what happens to the frightening (-4,555) that seems undeserved by me? Please also inform if I can edit the notification now. Best regards.

- Those are largely false positives; the {{award table}} template serves as the beginning of a table, and thus the "|}" at the end doesn't have a corresponding opening bracket. I fixed the one parenthesis that was truly mismatched. Huon (talk) 04:03, 5 September 2013 (UTC)

- Diart111, you fixed the bracket issue, but you should take a look at WP:Referencing for beginners on how to easily create nicely-formatted footnotes.

So we renamed Miss Asia Pacific (Super Talent) 2013, and the wiki people deleted again Now we try to put Miss Asia Pacific World Super Talentt 2013 with our Korean version 2013 미스 아시아 퍼시픽 월드 If the wiki people make "Miss Asia Pacific World 2013" without going Miss Asia Pacific World, then it goes ok, otherwise just goes to Miss Asia Pacific World Super Talent 2013 is ok www.missasiapacificworldstar.com

Comment/question: You bad Bracket Bot! Of the 3 bracket-trangressions you recently referred to me, I believe 2 might have been better directed toward 122.60.84.9 (I know, I had a busy week-end, but somebody else did manage to jump in at one point...). I have corrected all 3, but locating the unknown 2 was pretty hard, not having been in that zone in the first place. I'm sure I make quite enough mistakes of my own, not to need to claim other people's too...

Comment/question:
My typo was having two parens, but the actual link has only one paren. Your bot should check the existence of the link, if it's going to give a warning.
- Éclair (typeface) -- is a redlink (at the time this comment was made)
- Éclair (typeface -- is a bluelink
I suggest that if the bot is finding mismatched brackets as part of the link portion of a wikilink, that if the old version is a redlink and the new version is a bluelink, then no warning should be issued.
70.24.244.158 (talk) 03:15, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

When I was capitalizing the book title and adding the co-author and publisher, I didn't know what to do about the link. The way the original author entered it makes it seem like GoogleBooks is the publisher and not just a link to the book. However, I don't know how to fix that aspect.

Can you suggest a better way to avoid such problems than using nowiki, perhaps using HTML entities?

- Yes and no. There was another mismatched bracket on that page, an opening square bracket at the beginning of the preceding reference. The bot saw that after your edit two opening brackets corresponded to the one closing bracket, but guessed wrong about which bracket wasn't matched correctly. I fixed the issue.

– Fayenatic London 20:50, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
- That's not a false positive; you removed the closing bracket from the [http://web.archive.org/web/20031209164253/http://www.bible.org/docs/soapbox/2petotl.htm ''Second Peter: Introduction, Argument, and Outline''] link. Once summoned, the bot will list all mismatched brackets it finds because it isn't all that good at determining which one you caused (and arguably it screwed up here because it pointed out one that's at best marginally related). Also, people may want to fix all issues when they're at it. I have fixed what I could, but someone who can actually read Hebrew should take a look at the {{Hebrew}} template in footnote 7.

- Your edit, including the mismatched bracket, was reverted by Piriczki, probably because you didn't provide any sources for the added content. For example, "which was not served well by Lange's over-dominating backing vocals" is an opinion that would definitely have to be backed up by a published third-party review - we cannot just take your word for that. You can undo Piriczki's edit, but you should not do so without also providing a reliable source to support your changes. Huon (talk) 01:09, 5 October 2013 (UTC)

Northcenterchamber (talk) 20:20, 5 October 2013 (UTC) The single word "Northcenter" vs. the term "North Center" was only changed in the neighborhood section. While the City of Chicago lists North Center as one of 77 communities, within each of those communities are several smaller "neighborhoods." In the case of the North Center community, it's namesake neighborhood is spelled as one word, as has been since the 1920's or so as evidenced in copies of a neighborhood news paper housed in the Sultzer Public Library, and later by the chamber of commerce established in 1946.
The same problem exists for the Lake View community while the neighborhood is referred to as Lakeview.

- The bot simply isn't smart enough to figure out where a bracket belongs but is missing. Thus it instead points out where a bracket is that seems to be mismatched, and leaves it to a human to determine whether that's a surplus bracket that should be removed or whether another bracket needs to be added, and if so, where.

- BracketBot keeps an eye on <> because they are used for HTML tags; a mismatch there can easily break an entire article. If they're used for other purposes (including as "lesser than") produces false positives, such as here. You can either ignore that or reformat those titles without the ">".

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Azamgarh may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
- List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
- †<small>Includes [[Sikh]]s (0.2%), [[Buddhism|Buddhists]] (<0.2%).</small>
Thanks, BracketBot (talk) 09:29, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
Clearly there are no broken brackets in the text you have pasted, although you have highlighted a < (less than sign) in red - If your bot thinks every < need to be followed by a > it needs to be turned off, NOW.
Moreover, I did not edit that section, or any sections anywhere near it. The diff you provided is to my edit to the "Notable People" section, which is 6 sections below the religion graph which includes the <.
I had left a stray bracket, which I have now corrected, but your Bot needs to be able to show the correct section on an editors page, not a random, totally unconnected section, where all the brackets are correct.
Arjayay (talk) 09:56, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
- The bot keeps an eye on <> because they're used in HTML tags, where a mismatch could easily break half the article. Also, the bot isn't all that good at determining where a bracket is missing. Here you did introduce a bracket mismatch (which you fixed yourself), but because there was another mismatched bracket on the page, BracketBot considered the wrong one "mismatched".

I wrote the short piece this afternoon, all seemed OK, and then I edited to add a piece of information. I think what may have caused the problem was that my new Wikipedia registration (neiltaylormarr) had not yet taken and I'd edited under my old Wkikipedia username (neilmarr) so that there appeared to be a conflict. I'd be grateful for any advice, but if I've broken a rule, I'd prefer to withdraw the piece with sincere apologies for my misunderstanding until I'm more clear on how to add valid references.

Comment/question: The issue is the formatting result observed for the template "|range alt=" which appeared to drop a close-parenthesis if the line already contained an embedded closed-parenthesis at the end of the line.
Example 1:
{{Aircraft specifications
|range main=Range (1);
|range alt=Alt Range (2)
}}
Note the lack of a closed parenthesis in the example - not. Bizarre. This is NOT what I was observing in the original edit result (which follows as example 2).
Example 2:
{{Aircraft specifications
|range main=Range (1);
|range alt=Alt Range (2)
*'''Max Range:''' Range (3)
*'''Ferry Range:''' Range (4)
}}
Okay, so it appears the formatting issue is caused by the non-template definition lines following the "|range alt=" definition which upon closer inspection seems to be treating them as a continuation of the "|range alt=" template definition - because it places the closed parenthesis at the end of "Range (4)," not "Alt Rage (2)." Interesting, I didn't notice that when I made the edit to the page flagged by bracketbot.
I think there needs to be a work around for this issue as I think we're always going to have some information added that may not be defined by the rigid parameters of a template (as desirable as templates may be). The easiest solution for this current issue would be perhaps to add some template definitions - in this case "|range maxload=" and perhaps "|range empty=" or "|range ferry=."
MelioraCogito (talk) 22:18, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

- To be blunt, you seem to be confusing the encyclopedia with free ad space. Also, re-adding the same content over and over again while you get reverted by multiple other editors is a good way to be considered disruptive. Given that most of your past edits consisted of adding spam to the moment disambiguation page, my advice would be to abstain from editing that topic and adding links to the "moments devoted to you" website, or you will soon find yourself blocked.
