Possible problem |

Line 32:
::::So, ideally, the bot would first figure out if the user is new (< 500 edits) or experienced (> 500 edits), then grab a warning from the appropriate randomizer, which will deliver one of two templates, current or test. We also made a randomizer for the welcome message: {{tl|Welcomelaws-rand}}. It'll be interesting to see if there's any difference if a user receives a test welcome and default warning, or vice versa. The randomizers and z templates should take care of randomizing and tracking, so I don't think any extra work on your part is required. Let me know if this all makes sense. If you feel like you're good to go, feel free to flip the switch on your bot at any time – just drop Steven or me a talk page message or email so we can update our documentation. And if you have any questions/concerns, feel free to ping either of us, as well :) [[User:Maryana (WMF)|Maryana (WMF)]] ([[User talk:Maryana (WMF)|talk]]) 00:01, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
:::::I got two bug fixes scheduled to go in and live tomorrow, I'll switch the templates at that time and drop you a note. — [[User:Coren|Coren]] <sup>[[User Talk:Coren|(talk)]]</sup> 00:07, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
:::::Oh – I looked at your templates and there is a problem that's probably going to be significant: the welcomelaws is added to a new talk page in the same edit that the notice template is; and since you use the low order bit of time to pick the template, you'll always get A-A or B-B when I expect you would have wanted both variables to be independent? — [[User:Coren|Coren]] <sup>[[User Talk:Coren|(talk)]]</sup> 00:11, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
