Discussion[edit]

Since this bot is going to be editing so many images, are there any other tasks we can combine with this one to make each edit more substantial? Also, it says 400k+, but the linked category has 253 members. Should it be linked to another category? MBisanz talk 17:25, 5 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I'm not sure about that, I'll ask Sfan00 if he can come up with anything. That's how many pages are in the category, scroll down a bit to see 400k+ files. LegoKontribsTalkM 17:40, 5 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
This is solely about image review , I can't think up anything else at present. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 18:48, 5 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Could we maybe have it look to see if there are any broken templates on the image and add a template that would categorize it as being an image with broken templates? Or maybe if there is red-linked category on the image, do the same thing? MBisanz talk 03:23, 6 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Approved for trial (50 edits). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. MBisanz talk 04:39, 6 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Thanks MBisanz. To try and make the edits more valuable, the bot will also do the following things:
  • Tag with ((file with non-existent templates)) if a file has red-linked templates, or ((file with non-existent categories)) for categories.
  • Date any templates on WP:AWB/DT (I don't know if any of this applies, but it will still do it)
  • Expand any redirects on WP:AWB/TR
  • Any AWB Genfixes that I can get reliably working in time and will be used on files (right now: none).
And I won't start the trial until Legobot 21 finishes. LegoKontribsTalkM 05:59, 6 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I've just thought of something additional as well :-
Update NFUR rationale templates as follows :-

etc... Sfan00 IMG (talk) 11:41, 6 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

That's also useful. There are old partial lists at User:MBisanz/BotR and User:AWeenieMan/sandbox, but they are several years out of date. I did the 10 outlier cases by hand, please ignore that part. MBisanz talk 14:48, 6 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Sounds good. I've asked for them to be added to AWB's list of template redirects to be resolved so other bots can use it too. LegoKontribsTalkM 07:41, 7 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
AWB only does replacements in the mainspace for now, so I've started generating a list at User:Legoktm/AWB/TR which can be merged in with their list later on. I'm generating a bigger list based on Category:File namespace templates, but if there are any other categories I can add them easily. LegoKontribsTalkM 08:41, 7 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Trial complete. Log is at User:Legobot/Logs/22. A good example of the bypassing redirects would be this edit. LegoKontribsTalkM 00:16, 9 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Looks good. Since this is so many edits, I want to let this sit another day for comment, but I am leaning towards approval. MBisanz talk 15:31, 9 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Just to be on the safe side, I've implemented a "stop" page at User:Legobot/Stop/22 so the task can be disabled without blocking the bot. MBisanz, would you be able to semi-protect that page? Thanks, LegoKontribsTalkM 20:27, 9 October 2012 (UTC)Reply[reply]
