File size reductions

Your bot hasn't reduced the resolution of any files for a couple of days, but Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests is full of files. Is there something wrong? The last edit seems to have been around the time as when the Wikimedia Foundation disabled HTTP, so maybe your bot is trying to use HTTP instead of HTTPS? Could you try to fix the bot? --Stefan2 (talk) 10:33, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

Today, the bot reduced four files. Yesterday, the bot reduced two files. The category contains almost 300 files, so why weren't the other files reduced? --Stefan2 (talk) 09:00, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Question about page creation duplication : 2 August 2014

Good Morning, I have a question and I don't know if you can help me. There is an NFL player that has different links in Wikipedia to his name but didn't have an article. The problem is that some links refer to him to L'Damian Washington and others as L’Damian Washington. I didn't know how to link both names to just one article so I created two articles (one with each name). This is not the best way to do it, so do you know who can help me with this problem ?. Thanks.

WP 1.0 bot

Theopolisme, WP 1.0 bot appears not have updated Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/College football articles by quality log and similar logs for other WikiProjects since June 16. Can you address this? Thanks, Jweiss11 (talk) 02:38, 1 July 2015 (UTC)

@Jweiss11: It looks like some sort of Wikimedia Labs update caused all of the bot's tasks to be disabled--I've reenabled all of them. Let me know if the bot doesn't return to normal operation in a day or two and, if things still aren't working, I'll investigate further. Thanks! Theopolisme (talk) 19:26, 1 July 2015 (UTC)
