Category:Wikipedia bots using JavaScript

I noticed Category:Wikipedia bots using JavaScript was created for this bot, which is a child of Category:Wikipedia bots by framework. JavaScript is a language, not a framework. The closest applicable category here would be Category:Wikipedia bots with Javascript source code published, which I think is true for your bot. — MusikAnimal talk 05:04, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@MusikAnimal: thanks - I've recategorized the bot and tagged the old category for speedy deletion. --DannyS712 (talk) 20:22, 9 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Category:McClure Twins Draft Page

Thank you for editing the Categories for the McClure Twins Draft page. Initially, I thought you were suggesting I should take it out but after fully reading, I realized you've already adjusted it. I'm going to put it back just as you found it. I'm still very new to Wiki but thank you for your adjustment! — Preceding unsigned comment added by LaWr123 (talk • contribs) 21:57, 9 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Is it necessary?

Is this edit (or this) necessary? There was no category on the page since it was wrapped with a {{main other}}, so WP:USERNOCAT does not apply. On the other hand, it creates much potential problems if one does not notice it when syncing back to main. --Muhandes (talk) 22:23, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Muhandes: it was categorized in multiple non-draft categories (in this case template categories), which is why it showed up as "polluting" the categories. The bot simply tries to fix the pollution. In this case, the category probably came from a different template. I'll look into adding an exception to that, sorry DannyS712 (talk) 22:33, 1 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I see. I think the bot may be going at this the wrong way. Template categorization is usually done in documentation page, which is transcluded to the template page. Thus the pollution wasn't in fact corrected, the origin was the doc file. I now removed it manually. --Muhandes (talk) 09:57, 2 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Can your bot do page moves?

Danny, I've been working on implementing the RFC to take "The" out of song and album disambiguators, and find that there are more to do than I want to do by hand. See this quarry querry: https://quarry.wmflabs.org/query/38862 which shows 2815 article results (and I have a short whitelist of 14 exceptions for "(The The ...)" and "(The 1975 ...)" per the RFC. See Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Music#RfC: using "The" in song/album article titles. Let me know if your bot skills could help. Actually, we might want to move redirects, too, in the cases where they are listed in relevant categories. Dicklyon (talk) 02:03, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Dicklyon: do you want me to file a BRFA? I'm not going to move redirects, since that would either require suppression of the redirect (without a good justification) or would create a double redirect DannyS712 (talk) 05:27, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Since my message to you, I got some pushback at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard#Dicklyon_pushing_for_the_mass-renaming_of_pages_through_a_small-scale_consensus. Let's make sure that settles down first, then yes, a bot request. Re the redirects, we can discuss later how best to handle them. Dicklyon (talk) 14:51, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It looks like that's settled down, but maybe best to wait and be sure. In the meantime, at least 3 of us have moved lots manually to test the waters, and found no pushback. But the query shows way too many to do by hand. I haven't heard any great ideas for new exceptions. Dicklyon (talk) 04:56, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
OK, that archived to here with no action and not much indication of anyone agreeing with the complaint. So, can you help me figure out how to automate or semi-automate these fixes? I update the quarry query to exclude the whitelisted bands. Dicklyon (talk) 04:06, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you.

Bot glitch

G'day Danny, the bot added the Maritime task force to a Milhist banner that already had a Maritime task force field here. Can you ensure that the code looks for a pre-existing field before adding another? Thanks for your work on this. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 06:54, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Peacemaker67: thanks for catching that; I already finished (I think) with task 62, but for the future I can look; it just adds a lot more complexity to check each alias for the parameters. Maybe a different task would be to remove all empty or unrecognized parameters from the template? --DannyS712 (talk) 06:57, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Also, about your revert at https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Talk:Kaiman-class_torpedo_boat&diff=next&oldid=922142592&diffmode=source - now the page isn't tagged; the parameter was empty. I've filled it in there, but if you undid any more can you make sure that the task force is still added? DannyS712 (talk) 06:58, 20 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Task 27 disabling draft categories as well?

Hello. In edits such as these: [1] and [2], is there a reason "Category:Sony's Marvel Universe drafts" doesn't survive the filter like "Category:Drafts about media and drama" does? Is that a property of the category itself? Just asking since if I restore that particular draft category, is it going to get removed by the bot again later? Thanks! -2pou (talk) 22:29, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

One more thing, I guess. Should the categories within the {Draft categories| } template get filtered by the bot? See this edit: [3] -2pou (talk) 22:39, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@2pou: I agree that the category should pass the filter - I'll take a look DannyS712 (talk) 23:57, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Draft categories

At Special:Diff/932656558, the bot added leading ':' to the categories, even though they were wrapped in {{Draft categories}}. —[AlanM1(talk)]— 04:10, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@AlanM1: The bot goes based off of Category:AfC submissions with categories - I'll try to fix the template that controls the categorization DannyS712 (talk) 04:46, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@AlanM1: It was because the draft categories include the default sort within it, so the module (Module:AFC submission catcheck) thought that the end of the default sort declaration was the end of the draft categories template, and that the following categories were real DannyS712 (talk) 04:48, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks – I remember not being sure at the time whether to put it in the wrapper or not. I'll try to remember for the future. I wonder if there are other instances where braces (I assume that was the problem) might be part of a cat, like maybe some use of magic words. —[AlanM1(talk)]— 04:53, 28 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

DannyS712 bot III context question

Hi DannyS712. I recently found that DannyS712 bot III had patrolled some of the redirects I had added in the past few months, whereas these such had normally been patrolled by another WP editor.

Is there a link on your page that explains how this works? How did I get pointed to a bot rather than a human editor?

Thanks. N2e (talk) 20:30, 29 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@N2e: redirects that can be uncontroversially patrolled because they follow a certain pattern are patrolled by bot. See User:DannyS712 bot III/rules for a breakdown of the different rules that can cause a redirect to be patrolled DannyS712 (talk) 00:09, 30 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, DannyS712, that was exactly what I needed to know in order to research things. I found that my name has recently been added to the whitelist for editors who do this sort of redirect creation by Rosguil. That makes sense; but I had not previously known that.
Thanks for taking the time to develop bots that make Wikipedia a better place for all persons on the globe! N2e (talk) 03:35, 30 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

BEPO

Hi! The bot has automatically reviewed BEPO, which was created as a redirect to BÉPO. Looks reasonable, no? The thing is, BÉPO is only one of the meanings of "BEPO" (the others are listed at the dab page Bepo, so this redirect shouldn't really have been automatically given the pass, but instead reviewed by a human editor and retargeted to the dab page. I don't know if this is an isolated case, or an example of a type that we might see more of down the line (in the latter case, that would mean wading into WP:CONTEXTBOT territory). – Uanfala (talk) 14:50, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your bot

Speaking as someone who knows nothing about bots, I was wondering whether your bot had the capability of changing citations. The task I had in mind involves hundreds of articles whose main source has a specific format and a seven digit "site" number. This format has been changed to a different format with the same site number. Replacing the dead urls manually is difficult as both old and new are pdf files, with no link to the organisation's main site. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:28, 31 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Cwmhiraeth: I don't think I'd be a able to do that automatically, sorry DannyS712 (talk) 23:25, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

<source></syntaxhighlight> tag mismatches

Hello, @DannyS712: (pinging because I was unsure of whether you wished this to be posted on your talk page, the bot's talk page, or both);

On at least two articles (SQLJ and Zebra Programming Language, to be exact), your bot successfully replaced the closing </source> tag with </syntaxhighlight>, but was for some reason unable to replace the leading <source> tag (probably because both had odd parameters following the initial tag, such as div="..." or width="..."), which entirely broke the code representations on those two articles. I don't know if you have already fixed this bug (as both edits occurred on May 21st), but if not, I would recommend halting the bot and doing so before any other code representations are broken. — TheHardestAspect­OfCreatingAnAccount­IsAlwaysTheUsername: posted at 04:57, 24 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@TheHardestAspectOfCreatingAnAccountIsAlwaysTheUsername: yeah, I was only replacing opening tags with specific attributes because source is a valid tag when talking about html; sorry about those.

DRN bad bot edit

The bot reverted my closure of a case. I think it's intended to remove the do not archive tags when someone closes a case but fails to remove the tag, but in my case it reverted the closure. That's improper. Please fix the bot. Regards, TransporterMan (TALK) 19:01, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Reminders feature

I'll write some documentation at some point, but I would suggest using User:DannyS712/RemindMe to schedule the reminders - I built the bot with the intention of having a script structure the JSON blob for users DannyS712 (talk) 23:04, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DRAFTNOCAT question

Hey DS, is there any reason the bot only comments out cats from AfC drafts, and not from all drafts? I spend a good bit of time tacking down and commenting out cats from those pages, and it would be great if the bot could do that for me. Thanks in advance, UnitedStatesian (talk) 16:21, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It should also remove categories from drafts in Wikipedia:Database reports/Polluted categories (2) DannyS712 (talk) 22:28, 21 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
That's what I thought, but it doesn't seem to be doing that if the draft is only in categories on the report that are large. For instance, Category:Italian footballers is on the latest report and has been on the report constantly for a number of days; I can't imagine that each time the bot removes that cat from a draft a new draft comes into that same cat. And here's another example: if you look at this diff, you see the draft was in 4 large categories that were on the report for a month, before I finally clicked through one of them page after page to find the offending draft and DNC it using the script. Is there a way to check the bot's function on these large cats? UnitedStatesian (talk) 04:51, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'll try to look into it, but I'm going to be fairly busy in real life for the next bit, sorry DannyS712 (talk) 10:11, 22 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I'm planning to investigate it soon, sorry I haven't had a chance already. My hunch is that the relevant pages have multiple entries in the page triage tables (and so the bug is in the PageCuration extension rather than my bot) and the bot just handles each of the duplicate rows separately, and the solution is just to remove the duplicates, but I'm not sure --DannyS712 (talk) 22:00, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Updating a mass message

Hello,

I'd like your thoughts on whether it's possible and a good idea to use the mass message corrector task to update the latest admin newsletter.

Since the release of the newsletter, the voting period has been pushed back per this edit by a WMF employee. The latest admin newsletter has the original, but now wrong, dates. Although those who have not seen the change in date will probably see the change on the linked page I thought noting this change may save confusion.

I didn't want to send a mass message with the updated dates, and although AWB could handle it with a lot of Ctrl and S presses I thought a bot task would be better. This technically isn't a simple correction, but I don't think it's major enough that editors should get another ping.

While the bot is also at it, I did send the newsletter with the wrong month in as the section header. It should be "August 2021" instead of "July 2021". If this could be fixed at the same time that would be great. One thought was that if the bot works of section headers only it may cause issues with also updating the previous month's newsletter as this month's and last month's have the same section name. If this causes a problem please don't worry about doing this task.

I've updated the source of the newsletter page at Wikipedia:Administrators' newsletter/2021/8 to reflect the change and I thought that this could be what the bot will change the message to, though the small text included after the news item could instead read "The voting period has been pushed back since the release of this month's newsletter, and your copy of this month's newsletter has been updated to reflect this." to reflect this was a post publication change to the newsletter. I would want to have the strikethrough and insertion as this isn't a simple correction, and noting the old dates may be useful.

What do you think? This isn't urgent. If you can't do this within the month, please ignore as by that point the voting will be over. Courtesy ping to DannyS712 Thanks and happy editing, Dreamy Jazz talk to me | my contributions 21:56, 2 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No worries about this now. It's been long enough that updating it won't be needed. Dreamy Jazz talk to me | my contributions 20:33, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Missed review for redirect-whitelisted user

Hi, @DannyS712: I just got a notification saying that Rosguill had reviewed Chuhdary, a redirect I created a few weeks ago. This surprised me, since I'm on the redirect whitelist. Do you know why the bot skipped that review? The sequence of events there is a little odd: It was deleted, recreated, and temporarily fully protected in under 20 minutes. Maybe something to do with that? -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 19:51, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Tamzin, the script only looks at the most recent edits, so the fact that it was protected within 10 minutes of you creating it is the reason it didn't get checked off. signed, Rosguill talk 19:53, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure what you mean by "the script only looks at the most recent edits". When you added me to the list, all my (hundreds of) redirects not reviewed at that point yet were automatically reviewed by the bot, no matter how old. ~~~~

User:1234qwer1234qwer4 (talk) 19:55, 16 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, I see. Wouldn't it make more sense to review any case where all editors are whitelisted/autopatrolled/sysops? For instance in this case, there are three editors in the history, but the second and third are both sysops, so all three of us are trusted to make redirects not needing human review.

Redirects not patrolled

Hey @DannyS712, I create a lot of redirects and I wanted to bring up something weird I found. Most of my redirects have been autopatrolled by your bot, except for 15 of the redirects I've created in October (12 on the 4th, 3 on the 12th). All of them were create based on requests at WP:AFC/R and were edited before the bot had a chance to review them. The target wasn't changed, but a sort rule, category, or additional rcat template was added in each of the cases. Is this behaviour intention?

Potential bot issue

Hey DannyS712, I just came across Looksmaxx, which was created as a circular redirect. Despite this, DannyS712 bot III had marked it as reviewed. I was just wondering if this was expected behaviour, given that the redirect would need fixing prior to being usable.

All the best, ‍—‍a smart kitten[meow] 21:02, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@A smart kitten the reason it was patrolled (per Special:Permalink/1209268146) is that if you replace (disambiguation) from the source title the result is equal to the destination title. In this case, thats because the two titles are the same though, so it probably shouldn't have been patrolled. I won't need a BRFA to stop patrolling this case so when I get around to updating the bot in a few weeks I'll be sure to exclude these cases DannyS712 (talk) 22:45, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Task 3 – Draft categories

Hello. I noticed your bot converting draft cats to links, which is much better than deleting them; so thanks for that task. May I ask you to go one step further, and instead of converting it to links, embed the categories in template {{Draft categories}} instead? The effect will be that the categories will be shown at the foot of the Draft page, without populating the categories, and when the draft is released, they will immediately populate the correct categories with no further intervention.

For example, instead of performing this edit at Draft:Gallo-Roman Theater of Lisieux, you would do this instead:

−
{{Portal|Ancient Rome|Architecture }} [[Category:Ancient Roman theatres in France]] [[Category:Roman amphitheatres in France]] [[Category:Roman Gaul]]
+
{{Portal|Ancient Rome|Architecture }} {{Draft categories| [[Category:Ancient Roman theatres in France]] [[Category:Roman amphitheatres in France]] [[Category:Roman Gaul]] }}
  • For example, see the footer of Draft:Contravention in French criminal law, which uses this template.
  • An example of a mainspace article which uses it is Tinio Brigade; they evidently forgot to remove the template, but that's what's so good about it, because it doesn't matter if they remove it or not, as categorization will work correctly either way, whereas if you forget to remove the colons from the links, they will not work correctly.

Would this change be possible? Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 00:42, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This was inspired by this subsection of a longer conversation, and an issue was raised about whether the scope of the bot could be broadened to all drafts, not just those with the submit template.
