programming for tools

 * It's mostly PHP? I have never touched PHP. How advanced does one need to be to help? Etc. Tks. &bull; Lingzhi&diams;(talk) 12:03, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
 * A working understanding of PHP is required otherwise you're unlikely to be of any help to us. Sorry if that sounded harsh, I couldn't find a better way to word it.  That said, if you are a programmer, you should have no issues learning PHP.—cyberpower  Chat:Online 16:08, 19 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Not harsh. And yes former programmer. Can start self-study of PHP, if it seems there is a need. Tks. ... hey I'm at codeacadamy.com and the pace is glacial. Can you point me to easy, intermediate and advanced examples (in tools) I can view? Tks &bull; Lingzhi&diams;(talk) 01:46, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

Article prefix/namespace bug
A MediaWiki bug (T87645) resulted in a number of articles intended for other namespaces being created within namespace 0 on January 27th 2015. A number of these (listed below) were related to the activities of this account. All have now been superseded by entries in the correct namespace.

I intend to delete the misplaced articles of the next few days. I do not believe this action should interfere with (or even be noticed by) this bot, but please yell if you disagree.

Cheers. - TB (talk) 09:28, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

WikiHistory seems to be working!!
I just tested it – https://tools.wmflabs.org/xtools/wikihistory/wh.php?page_title=List_of_metro_systems – and it's looking promising. However, Kudpung is correct that it only seems to be working in article space, so far. Just so you know! --IJBall (contribs • talk) 20:07, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I tried some pages, including the one linked, and I never get anything other than "Error. Unknown article." Dustin  ( talk ) 20:50, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
 * It was working about an hour ago – my guess is that it's down now while they try to get it to work with non-article space pages(?)... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 21:33, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Correct. I'm tinkering with it right now.—cyberpower  Chat:Online 22:08, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Minor note here Cyber: notice that the Wikihistory percentages in the edit count table are currently using "commas" (e.g. 7,95%) rather than "decimals" (e.g. 7.95%) as it should in English...

Active Watchers tool no longer works
Hello, I have been experiencing a problem with the Active Watchers tool as is lead me to a page that says, "No redirect found." As I suspect this was caused by the Toolserver shutdown, is it possible to find, or re-create the source code of the tool? Racer -Ωmegα  20:19, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Can you provide me a link?—cyberpower  Chat:Online 20:58, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

@Cyberpower678: You access the tool from the history of a certain page, such as a talk page, and it is one of Equazcion's scripts. However, here is the link to the tool, but the Toolserver has been shut down when the tool stopped working. Is it possible to merge or "recreate" the data to Labs? Racer -Ωmegα  13:19, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but the answer to that is no. Toolserver died years ago, and all data that wasn't moved to labs was lost.  Unless there is a repo somewhere I cannot help you here.—cyberpower Chat:Limited Access 19:55, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

semi vs full create protection
Hey - can you tweak Cyberbot so that RFPP requests for create protection are archived whether that create protection is full or semi? Personally, I don't semi-salt pages but some admins do, and I think the bot is only looking for the full enchilada and treating the semi-salting as unprotection. The request today was for Blue Ivy Carter. Thanks. :-) KrakatoaKatie 22:50, 29 July 2015 (UTC)
 * The bot should already do that. It just looks for the create protection flag, and doesn't bother looking at the level.  Can you give me a link?—cyberpower  Chat:Online 21:00, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Cyberbot I doesn't archive requests approved by non-bureaucrats
Cyberbot I's WP:CHU clerking code seems to be outdated, as it has left a massive backlog of unarchived requests which I had to manually archive. All of these unarchived requests were made by non-bureaucrats. The code for the bot should be updated to recognize requests handled by global renamers who are not local enwiki crats. Could that be changed accordingly? Thanks. --I am  k6ka  Talk to me!   See what I have done  04:48, 30 July 2015 (UTC)


 * please try to make this fix as soon as you're able [I see you've marked yourself away]. I believe this was fixed prior to your taking on the task, but perhaps the public source code was not updated. You could try asking Legoktm for his latest branch if it would just be easier to merge the changes he made to update for global renamers. –xenotalk 14:44, 3 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry I just noticed a message Cyberpower678 sent me a few days ago... to relay his message, I'm afraid he might be away for a bit. Surely on return he'll take care of this, but I can't say when that will be. I don't think we're looking at a really long wait, maybe a week or so, not sure! It's family-related, so it's best to leave him be. Sorry I could not myself be of any help! &mdash; MusikAnimal  talk  00:34, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the delay. Unfortunately, I have already adapted the code to suit my bot and use my framework, and made several updates to the code in general as it was using deprecated code, so asking for the newer code from Legoktm won't do much.  I'll go ahead and try and get a fix up in the next few hours.—cyberpower <sub style="margin-left:-10.1ex;color:olive;font-family:Comic Sans MS"> Chat:Online 21:02, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Since bureaucrats don't have any renaming power anymore, I will be dropping bureaucrats from the trusted list.

Bot request
Asking you because you recently had your bot working on archive.org and dead links.

Over at WT:NRHP, we're concerned: the National Register of Historic Places website has just moved a lot of their documentation from URLs with a long-used and simple naming convention to a new one that isn't systematic whatsoever. We've depended on the old format for a long time, and while the old URLs are still working as HTTP redirects for the moment, we don't know how long they'll last, and most aren't currently in archive.org. If I give you a list of URLs, would you mind writing and requesting permission for a relevant bot task?

Basically, since archive.org will suggest that you "Save this url in the Wayback Machine" when you request its copy of a never-archived-but-currently-active page (you probably know what I mean, but if not, go to ), it would be wonderful if your bot could take each entry from a long list, and every time that it got that message, it would request that archive.org save the URL. If this could be accomplished, it would be wonderfully helpful, but presumably it would take a good deal of time, since we're talking several tens of thousands of URLs.

Discussion of this topic is at WT:NRHP, if you're curious. I'll answer any questions that you may have. Thanks! Nyttend (talk) 12:50, 31 July 2015 (UTC)

Xtools
Hi! Spotted one error. Lets take this page and its section "Latest edit (global)". As you can see, links are wrong (double https part: ). Would be nice to fix it. -- Edgars2007  (talk/contribs) 11:19, 6 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi. I would also like to report an error in the Page history tool (in fact, looks like other tools work similar, but I didn't check). When I select «be-tarask» language, the tool puts «be-tarask.wikipedia.org» to the wiki address field, but it should be «be-x-old.wikipedia.org». Next, even if I type the address manually and try to browse any article history, nothing is displayed.

Switching from «be-tarask» to other languages and back gives even more weird result (look at the url string in browser!) --Renessaince (talk) 16:31, 6 August 2015 (UTC)

Another issue is that the namespace prefix is missing. The name begins with a colon. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 16:13, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
 * xTools is broken in many areas, on top of the source being convoluted beyond belief. We are working to rewrite the entire core and tool.  In the process this should fix many of the problems borught up here, but it could take some time before it's ready.—cyberpower <sub style="margin-left:-13.5ex;color:\#FF8C00;font-family:Comic Sans MS"><span style="color:\#FF8C00">Chat:Limited Access 19:57, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

Blacklisted-links tagging

 * re: (Tagging page with Blacklisted-links. Blacklisted links found. (Peachy 2.0 (alpha 8)))

I noticed that the bot also leaves a message in the talk page. However there is a minor bug (or feature :-) if the talk page does not exist yet, the bot does not write into it (as it happened, e.g., for Home health care software (page history)). 18:24, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
 * The bot is set to edit only talk pages that exist. No sense in creating the talk page if editors haven't already done.  Most likely case results in that the talk page gets ignored.

Contributers script?
RedRose suggested you might be the author of a tool that extracts the contributes from articles, the one that can be found here. I can never get tools to work, but I'm more interested in the logic than the implementation. Is this really your creation? Maury Markowitz (talk) 14:40, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I ported this from a different tool that functions only on the German Wikipedia and made it run for the English Wikipedia. Why do you ask.  It seems to work for me.—cyberpower <sub style="margin-left:-10.1ex;color:olive;font-family:Comic Sans MS"> Chat:Online 14:55, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
 * By "RedRose", means me: I saw this discussion and recalled this one and also this one. The tool is intermittent: sometimes it starts and runs, sometimes it seems to hang and doesn't get as far as showing the "Loading History..." message. -- Red rose64 (talk) 16:14, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
 * FYI, I find the toolsever to be barely operable in general - perhaps 50% of my attempts to use any tool fail with timeouts. YMMV. Maury Markowitz (talk) 17:28, 12 August 2015 (UTC)

To answer the question: In my experience there are a wide variety of common actions on the Wiki that are potentially destructive - PROD, AfD, etc. - but the people who are most interested and able to help are never informed that these events are taking place. A recent gloss over new AfDs noted that of the 15 most recent, only 3 informed anyone that their article was about to be deleted. This is very bad, IMHO.

So my goal is to find some sort of algo that can extract a useful short list of recent major contributors, so that tools like Twinkle can easily automate sending notifications to those users. More usefully, it might use the reply-to mechanism to post pointers onto the AfD page is is creating. This would be a great advance, I think. Maury Markowitz (talk) 17:32, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, I have nothing to do with Twinkle. But the algorithm you're suggestion is a simple one.  Get the last 500 edits made to the article which can easily be done via the API quickly by any editor, since the rate limit is 500, tally each edit made by a user, and track how much each user adds or subtracts from the article, and take an average.  Set a baseline for the percentage for the added and subtracted numbers.  Any avergae that exceeds that baseline is a major contributor.  If none exceed, then use the top 5 contributors as calculated.—cyberpower <sub style="margin-left:-11ex;color:red;font-family:Comic Sans MS"> Chat:Offline 04:21, 13 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks C678. Do you know if this is the algo in the script? I still can't get it to run. (not your fault, toolserver's) Maury Markowitz (talk) 12:05, 13 August 2015 (UTC)

Blacklist needs whitelist
Note, the page Avaaz and Change.org use links to their sites, which are on the global blacklist to stop users adding links for profit.

The use of links to the blacklisted pages themselves are within WP:ELINKS for the articles, as they link in a non-abusive, non-spam building way.

This would have been justified by a whitelist discussion for additions triggering the edit filter on that page.

Can you please create a whitelist to prevent your script from running on a few pages, like articles on websites that are on the spam blacklist so the article doesn't get tagged time and time again?

Atomic 7 uses atomic7brandladiesshoes.com as their official page.

Can you please fix the script so it doesn't create two blacklist tags on one page? It pushes content too far down for small screens, and looks horrendously unprofessional on public facing pages (all of them).

-- Callinus (talk) 01:38, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry. I don't have access to the whitelist or the blacklist.  You need to request whitelisting via the appropriate venues, outlined by the message left by the bot on the talk page, and the actual template.  The bot also leaves instructions on how to hide the template to prevent the bot from re-adding the template.  As for the duplicate template issues, it definitely should not be doing that.—cyberpower <sub style="margin-left:-13.5ex;color:\#FF8C00;font-family:Comic Sans MS"><span style="color:\#FF8C00">Chat:Limited Access 03:16, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
 * It would be good to get a fix for the way the bot re-adds identical tags, and if you could run that in your userspace to test that it works before double tagging 1,000 public facing pages. I'll re-add invisible tags. -- Callinus (talk) 05:54, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Incredibly pedantic, but...
The message Cyberbot II leaves on talk pages contains the following sentence: "The addition will be logged at one of these locations: local or global If you believe the specific link should be exempt from the blacklist, you may request that it is white-listed."

Cyberbot II issue
Hello Cyberpower678, just wanted to note an issue that occurred with Cyberbot II in this edit: In it, a vandal removed a lot of the article header, including the PC tag. Since the bot then edited the article thereafter to readd the tag, the change from the vandal went live with it and it had to be manually reverted since it could no longer be rejected by PC. Would it be possible to set the bot to hold off on adding a PC template if there's actually an unreviewed change pending? I didn't deactivate the task, it's something of an edge case, but probably not good if someone figured out they could put a change through that way. Seraphimblade Talk to me 01:49, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I think you got something mixed up there. The edit was never accepted.  The bot never accepts an edit that is pending.  It's only automatically accepted, regardless of protection, if there aren't previous edits that are pending.—cyberpower <sub style="margin-left:-10.1ex;color:olive;font-family:Comic Sans MS"> Chat:Online 01:51, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
 * The bot didn't accept anything, correct, sorry if I was unclear. However, it edited the vandal's version to add the PC1 template, and the bot's edit was autoaccepted. Since the bot's edit was based from the vandal change, that is when the vandalism went live. Seraphimblade Talk to me 02:07, 19 August 2015 (UTC)

 * The bot is fine. It uses a ridiculously long password separate from the ones I use.  This looks like MW failed to catch an edit conflict.  It could be because the bot and the editor before submitted edits exactly at the same time, as unlikely as that may be.—cyberpower <sub style="margin-left:-13.5ex;color:\#FF8C00;font-family:Comic Sans MS"><span style="color:\#FF8C00">Chat:Limited Access 02:46, 23 August 2015 (UTC)

 * It already does what it can. It tries to pull the latest copy when it edits, adds a starttimestamp and a basetimestamp.  What the bot doesn't catch, should get blocked by the software.  But when the software passes the checks for edit conflicts, they will likely both go through.  Hence, there's nothing that can really be done, to prevent it, when two editors make an edit on an article at the exact same time.—cyberpower <sub style="margin-left:-13.5ex;color:\#FF8C00;font-family:Comic Sans MS"><span style="color:\#FF8C00">Chat:Limited Access 02:56, 23 August 2015 (UTC)

The toollabs environment is constantly changing.  You've seen it with articleinfo, that when labs 'upgraded' the environment, it broke, in many locations.  My bots have recently suffered too.  As a result of the API recently changing, some of my bots started to malfunction as it was no longer to process the API correctly.  In short, tools in the toollabs environment, can and will, eventually die when left unmaintained.

 * AfD Statistics - Generates statistics regarding how a user has !voted at AfD.
 * User contributions search - Searches through a page's history for contributions by a particular user.

BRFA comments
Hi Cyberpower, this is a follow-up to your comments on BU Rob13's BRFA. I know you've now dropped the sockpuppet thing - thank you - but I thought this warranted comment from someone uninvolved. This is really not appropriate. I don't know why there's been so many unsubstantiated sock accusations flying around lately, but the effect is to publicly insult our most competent newer users at a time when Wikipedia really needs new blood. Even if a competent new user were a sock, so what? As long as they're doing good work, leave them alone unless you have compelling evidence of a real problem. IRC chatter isn't in that category. Please be more careful in the future, thanks. Opabinia regalis (talk) 16:25, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I apologize. I will avoid the topic of socking completely in the future.  Finding socks isn't really all my cup of tea anyways.  I merely brought it up since a user mentioned it on IRC.

Signature missing closing span tags?
I think your signature is missing two closing  tags. WP's syntax highlighter flips out and turns the rest of the page purple when it encounters your sig.

Cyberbot II wayback links - should go to first, not last, archived version?
Hi, I wanted to ask about the Cyberbot II wayback links. It seems to me that these should probably by default go to the FIRST archived version found at Internet Archive, rather than the latest. The reason is, if the original URL doesn't work, the latest Wayback machine entry is probably a 404 or a redirect from the broken page, versus the original content we'd expect in the first or mid-range date versions. For pages which were not altered after creation (not unusual) the first version would be correct.

I say this as I've reviewed four such links that were done on pages I watch recently, and three of them had this problem. I fixed them by changing the archive date to the earliest one in each case, but it would be easier if the bot just went with that to start with...

Thanks. Georgewilliamherbert (talk) 01:30, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
 * The bot pulls out a source that is closest to the accessdate, or when it was added to the article. That way it also ensures that the desired information is there.—cyberpower <sub style="margin-left:-10.1ex;color:olive;font-family:Comic Sans MS"> Chat:Online 01:32, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

 * I'm also coming up with some similar errors, see :Cyberbot II pulls an archive that is actually a 404. Sometimes that's because the bot chose a later archive when only the earlier archives captured the page before it went dead. Also some HTTP 302 crawl errors . Can the bot be coded to select archives, if possible, that are dated to before the date of the dead link tag, and preferably as close to the date the original source was added to the wiki article? Altamel (talk) 00:07, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Hey Max, see here and here. The bot was pretty awesome and did a great job, but there are some issues. First, with The Smashing Pumpkins, apparently the version that WayBack Machine archived was actually a redirect. It continues redirect a second time before landing on a working archive, so I think it's a matter of the bot checking for the 302 response code and following the redirect(s). Maybe the API works differently though (if there is an API), so not sure. The same thing happened with The Rolling Stones with this archive URL. Similarly, this archive URL redirects to this non-working archive. So again it's the WayBack Machine returning 302's or 404's, that the bot simply needs to check for and not assume they are a working version. Otherwise I think the bot is pretty f-ing awesome and will a great asset to the project. Hope this helps! &mdash; MusikAnimal  talk  18:25, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately what you are suggestion makes sense, but the bot is already attempting that. The bot is requesting the closest archive to the accessdate, that is either a 200, 203, 206, 301, 302, 307, or 308 as they all resemble a working page in some manner.  The bot cannot automatically follow a redirect due to the limitations of the wayback API.  Working with Ocaasi, on behalf of the WMF, I am hoping that the API's capabilities can be expanded.  This is one feature I have not requested, so you should consider asking Ocaasi to ask IA to add that too.—cyberpower <sub style="margin-left:-10.1ex;color:olive;font-family:Comic Sans MS"> Chat:Online 19:49, 30 August 2015 (UTC)

 * True, but I've discovered that not all pages that 302, ever had a 200.

Cyberbot II false edit summary?
In this edit to Born again (Christianity), the bot seems to have added a  template and archived a reference, which is fine, but its edit summary reads "Rescuing 1 sources, flagging 0 as dead, and archiving 2 sources." That doesn't seem to be true. I'm not quite sure what the "rescuing" refers to, but it only archived 1 source, not 2. This edit has the same problem, while this edit uses an identical summary, but it's actually true there. This edit summary doesn't sound right, either ("archiving 0 sources"). Unless I'm misunderstanding the meaning of the summaries, they don't all seem to be accurate. And on a separate note, is the removal of "Emmer, Michele. Mathematics and Cinema in" in this edit intentional? — Bilorv(talk)(c)(e) 10:13, 29 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, you are misinterpreting the edit summary. The rescuing count are the sources that are getting changed.  Rescuing meaning reviving sources.  Archiving is a behind the scenes process you can't see.  The bot is taking links that are not yet in the wayback machine, and archiving them.  This will allow sources that die in the future to remain accessible.—cyberpower <sub style="margin-left:-13.5ex;color:\#FF8C00;font-family:Comic Sans MS"><span style="color:\#FF8C00">Chat:Limited Access 15:08, 29 August 2015 (UTC)

 * I came to ask something that would be partially resolved by a FAQ entry about the meanings of the various terms used. The edit-summary for this edit to Sucralose says "Rescuing 3 sources, flagging 0 as dead, and archiving 1" but the edit only added a Wayback link to one ref (a ref that was indeed 404 but had a viable Wayback copy). Based on your previous answer, it sounds instead like only 1 was rescued. The message posted to Talk:Sucralose lists 3 entries as "Added archive", which is consisent with the edit-summary.

AdminStats question
Hi again, Cyberpower678! I have a question about AdminStats – AdminStats used to include in its output list all those Admins that had done zero Admin actions during the searched timeperiod.

 * Yes and WP:RFPP doesn't appeared to have been clerked since around the same time. However the bot has been making other edits since then, so not sure what's going on &mdash; MusikAnimal  talk  18:19, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
 * The bot seems to have updated the page now: take a look at Special:Diff/678640812. — Bilorv(talk)(c)(e) 18:20, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
 * The bot also updated RFPP at the same time: Special:Diff/678640814. — Bilorv(talk)(c)(e) 18:22, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
