[edit]Hello, Firefly,
Every few weeks I check on FireflyBot to see if it is posting CSD G13 notices to draft/sandbox creators and it looks like it stopped doing so on September 3rd. Could you check on it to see if there are any problems and get it up and going again? Many thanks for all of the work you and your bot do. All the best, Liz Read! Talk! 19:13, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
