::While at first it seems like NOTFORUM applies, I think this topic is worth discussing. We should verify that the archive bots, templates, etc are fine with 4-digit archive numbers, seeing as (at least I think) no other page has ever reached that milestone. Further, this page is a fine place to talk about it, seeing as how [[WT:ANI]] redirects here. [[User:Enterprisey|Enterprisey]] ([[User talk:Enterprisey|talk!]]) 05:27, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
:::Sigh... A professional software development effort would already have easily-found published results of various edge case tests, and those tests would include pages with large numbers of archives. --[[User:Guy Macon|Guy Macon]] ([[User talk:Guy Macon|talk]]) 05:43, 2 January 2019 (UTC)
{{od|:::}} We could have a problem when the ANI archive rolls over from 999 to 1000. When I tested, one-click archiver seemed to send threads to 999 despite 1000 existing. I think this tool uses the same logic as the bots do. The [[User:HBC Archive Indexerbot/OptIn|bot template]] allows for a number of leading zeroes, so I suppose we could move the pages:
* 1–9 to 00001–00009
* 10–99 to 00010–00099
* 100–999 to 00100–00999
* 1000 etc. to 01000 etc.
Then set the template to expect 2 leading zeroes while we're on 999, knocking it down to 1 when we move onto archive 1000. <span class="nowrap">[[User:AGK|<span style="color:black;">'''AGK'''</span>]][[User talk:AGK#top|<span style="color: black;">&nbsp;&#9632;</span>]]</span> 13:29, 2 January 2019 (UTC)
