::{{Re|Magnus Manske}} at lot of the above has a lot of frustration caused by a block that threw the baby out with the bathwater, and people who want to ignore policy because the bot does a lot of good. That said, I see nothing above that claim Wikidata is evil, so just ignore the general orneriness and focus on the actual issues. One the bot's logic gets updated, ask for the unblock, and things should get back to normal. I will point out that the bot's talk page ''is'' the proper place to raise issues about malfunctioning bots on Wikipedia, so if you don't monitor that page regularly, I suggest enabling email notifications when someone leaves you a message on [[User talk:ListeriaBot]]. Also feel free to review the recently updated [[WP:BOTCOMM]], which makes explicit was was implicit before. &#32;<span style="font-variant:small-caps; whitespace:nowrap;">[[User:Headbomb|Headbomb]] {[[User talk:Headbomb|t]] · [[Special:Contributions/Headbomb|c]] · [[WP:PHYS|p]] · [[WP:WBOOKS|b]]}</span> 17:39, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
 
''Update'': I [https://bitbucket.org/magnusmanske/listeria/commits/9a5a3500b699ff86a6670468a03eca34f73e4948 added a safeguard] that should prevent ListeriaBot from using images that are "local" (not from Commons). Of course, I can't test it here, because the bot is blocked, and it's hard to find an actual example (the ones listed as links above turn out to be not applicable). --[[User:Magnus Manske|Magnus Manske]] ([[User talk:Magnus Manske|talk]]) 22:45, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
