Incorrect seletion of user

If Special:ListFiles is loaded with a parameter such as https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:ListFiles/Rillke&ilshowall=1 and I click on Perform batch task, VFC suggests to show my own files instead of the ones by the corresponding user. --Leyo 11:05, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

Fixed -- Rillke^(q?) 00:09, 29 January 2016 (UTC)

Thanks, but there are still cases, where is does not work. If I click the user uploads link in the toolbox on the left hand side and then start VFC, my own user name shows up in the form. --Leyo 23:20, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

Should be gone. -- Rillke^(q?) 01:48, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

Nomination for deletion talk page templete

When I've been nominating multiple images for deletion using the visual file change, the user talk pages' templates come out wrong (see User talk:Arnaud 25#Template:Autotranslate 3). Elisfkc (talk) 17:33, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

@Elisfkc: The template include size for the aforementioned talkpage is exceeded, thus it is not a VFC bug. --Steinsplitter (talk) 17:36, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

@Steinsplitter: ok, so where should I mention this problem? Elisfkc (talk) 17:37, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

@Elisfkc: The user has to archive his talkpage. It is a server side restriction. --Steinsplitter (talk) 17:38, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

@Steinsplitter: oh, ok. Thanks. Elisfkc (talk) 17:40, 15 May 2016 (UTC)

Category processing

Is it possible to process category pages with this tool (e. g., do some mass text replacement)? --Djadjko (talk) 00:52, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

As far as I am aware, no. This tool is visual file change. --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 07:25, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

To mass edit categories and other page types, there can be used AWB, JWB (not sure if it works on Commons), or a userscript like this. cc Djadjko. --XXN, 17:29, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

8 characters minimum?

VFC green button is grayed out when the summary is lower than 8 characters, I don't know if it's intended (the "Remove tag" function below copyvios and no source/permission/license tags also have the same limit) or if it's a bug, but it is annoying when deleting spam en masse. Please lower to 4 characters so admins can write "spam", thanks. --Thibaut120094 (talk) 21:22, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

@Thibaut120094: This seems intended on this line: 'aDelete': { summaryMinLen: 8, reasonParse: 'mdDelteConfirmation', confirm: 'deleteConfirm', bLimit: 190, addSummary: 'mdInsertDeleteSummary' }, --Zhuyifei1999 (talk) 07:29, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

Thank you, since this dicussion is going nowhere, I'm going to create my own fork then. --Thibaut120094 (talk) 08:02, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

I am opposing to lift the ≥8 characters requirement. --Leyo 11:29, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

Any arguments? --Thibaut120094 (talk) 11:46, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

You will find them in the discussion about the implementation of that feature. --Leyo 23:49, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

@Leyo: Can't find it, also, how do you write "spam" with a minimum 8 characters limit? --Thibaut120094 (talk) 00:34, 17 December 2016 (UTC)

Please give an example where it is needed to write nothing else than “spam”. --Leyo 16:18, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

Try "this is spam", that's over eight characters. ;) ★ Poké⁹⁵ 04:55, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
