Majavahbot on SqWiki
Hey there! Some months ago we set up your bot to work on SqWiki. It works very good. Today I discovered "a problem" though. Check this article's talk page and it's archive. The bot has done its archiving work but has left those discussions un-archived at the page, even though they date since 2009. The reason for that I believe it is because those are malformed, at least, according to MajavahBot's standards. Any chance MajavahBot can be tweaked to understand cases like this or is there no hope at all? - Klein Muçi (talk) 07:21, 29 August 2021 (UTC)


 * @Klein Muçi Hi! I unfortunately don't think there is any easy way to get those automated given how different and ambigous the old section formats are. Majavah (talk!) 16:27, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I understand. It would be nice if we could have a "miscellaneous section" in the archive for cases like these and put them all there but the difficulty remains on telling the bot how to find the parts to put there in the first place, as you say. I was thinking if we could have a semi-automatic way for that, for example we give the wikilink to the bot somehow and it archives everything on that page beside the archive/bot header but I don't think that's a think that can be done easily no? - Klein Muçi (talk) 23:02, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Or maybe.... I was still thinking on this... If we're feeling adventurous, we can make the bot auto-archive everything it can't really understand below a certain standardized mark, into a miscellaneous section. Maybe? :/ - Klein Muçi (talk) 09:55, 4 September 2021 (UTC)

Reply-link officially superseded by DiscussionTools
Hi! Reply-link has officially been superseded by DiscussionTools, which you can install using the "Discussion tools" checkbox under. DiscussionTools, developed by the WMF's Editing Team, is faster and has more features than reply-link, and it wouldn't make sense for me to keep developing reply-link. I think the Editing Team is doing amazing work, and look forward to what they can do in the future. Thank you for using reply-link over the years! Enterprisey (talk!) 06:11, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

New Page Patrol newsletter September 2021
Hello ,

Please join this discussion - there is increase in the abuse of Wikipedia and its processes by POV pushers, Paid Editors, and by holders of various user rights including Autopatrolled. Even our review systems themselves at AfC and NPR have been infiltrated. The good news is that detection is improving, but the downside is that it creates the need for a huge clean up - which of course adds to backlogs.

Copyright violations are also a serious issue. Most non-regular contributors do not understand why, and most of our  Reviewers are not experts on copyright law - and can't be expected to be, but  there is excellent, easy-to-follow advice on COPYVIO detection here.

At the time of the last newsletter (#25, December 2020) the backlog was only just over 2,000 articles. New Page Review is an official system. It's the only firewall against the inclusion of new, improper pages.

There are currently 706 New Page Reviewers plus a further 1,080 admins, but as much as nearly 90% of the patrolling is still being done by around only the 20 or so most regular patrollers.

If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process or its software. Various awards are due to be allocated by the end of the year and barnstars are overdue. If you would like to manage this, please let us know. Indeed, if you are interested in coordinating NPR, it does not involve much time and the tasks are described here. To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

Majavahbot on SqWiki - Autoarchive
Hello!

This page you've set up works as a switch for the auto-archive option on the mainspace. Can the said option be activated for other namespaces? Say, for example, the "Wikipedia" and "Template" talk namespaces? Can that be part of the switch itself so we can add and remove namespaces as we see fit?

Side question: Do you have any idea why our archive icon is behaving strange at w:sq:Wikipedia:Kuvendi? Any idea how to fix it? - Klein Muçi (talk) 14:41, 11 October 2021 (UTC)


 * @Klein Muçi Sure, done. Turns out I can't edit the config page yourself, but something like this should work on the next run. Majavah (talk!) 16:38, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the fast answer! - Klein Muçi (talk) 17:14, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Given that this was fairly easy, is it possible to have the possibility of customizing bot summary messages in that page as well? - Klein Muçi (talk) 05:13, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
 * If that's not possible, can you remove the "MajavahBot:" part for us in the summary so it starts straight with the message? The one which I personally asked to be included in the past. Times have changed and we're renovating some aspects about bots in general. But it would be nice if we could have a sort of autonomy in these details. :) - Klein Muçi (talk) 15:34, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
 * @Klein Muçi You can configure the edit summary for automated setup like this. Fully on-wiki config for edit summaries for the archiving itself needs more programming work, I'll try to find time for that in the near future but for now I removed the hack which appends MajavahBot in there. Majavah (talk!) 18:35, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot! :) Tell me if you find the time for that so I make the needed change. Have a good time! :) Klein Muçi (talk) 21:58, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * @Klein Muçi You added a syntax error in this edit, you added a duplicate closing bracket to "autosetup_namespaces". It only needs to have only one  and it needs one   after it. Majavah (talk!) 07:36, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for telling me. Fixed now, no? - Klein Muçi (talk) 09:36, 25 October 2021 (UTC)

MajavahBot - "Block" column request - allow sorting by date
Hi, great bot "User:MajavahBot/Bot status report". Wondering if the Block column can be changed slightly to "Last block (UTC)" and the cell data lead with the block date? This would allow seeing the latest blocks easily using the sort icon. I don't think separate columns for block reason, blocked by, block type, etc. are needed as there are few and infrequent blocks. Also would you consider donating it to the appropriate WP section? Cheers, Facts707 (talk) 15:06, 16 November 2021 (UTC)


 * @Facts707 Hi, I updated the report page to sort blocks based on the date. Not quite sure what you mean by Also would you consider donating it to the appropriate WP section?. Majavah (talk!) 19:31, 17 November 2021 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks much for the quick update and reply! Sorry I didn't respond earlier. I noticed at one point that the items on Template:Botnav are in the Wikipedia or Help or Template namespaces - "MajavahBot" seems to be the only one in the User namespace. Cheers, Facts707 (talk) 13:06, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Majavahbot's fail
Take a look at this enormous diff. First time archiving that page in ages. Some sections are left behind by Majavahbot. They have signatures and good section formatting. What's causing it to fail archiving them? - Klein Muçi (talk) 10:23, 14 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Hi! The remaining sections either don't have signatures, have them in the wrong language (en instead of sq) or otherwise have a malformed signature (even things like upper/lowercase month names matter). Majavah (talk!) 18:55, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Ah... Language in dates... I hadn't thought about that. I see. Thank you! :) - Klein Muçi (talk) 19:01, 14 December 2021 (UTC)

Scripts++ Newsletter – Issue 22
 Hello everyone, and welcome to the 22nd issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter. This issue will be covering new and updated user scripts from the past seven months (June through December 2021).

Got anything good? Tell us about your new, improved, old, or messed-up script here!

Updated scripts
 * SD0001: hide-reverted-edits has been updated to take into account changes in reversion tools like Twinkle and RedWarn.
 * Writ Keeper: massRollback.js has added a rollback-some option (missed in last issue).

Pending requests
 * Mass-patrolling at Special:NewPages
 * Taking up the mantle of an almost completed peer review javascript bot
 * Restore the Wikipedia Citation Tool for Google Books
 * Autohighlighting specific characters (Greek)
 * ...and many more, all available at User scripts/Requests

 * Tol:
 * VisualEditor Citation Needed adds a button (under "Insert") in VisualEditor to add a citation needed tag.
 * Venkat TL:
 * ColourContrib color-codes the user contributions page so that pages you've edited last are sharply distinguished from pages where another editor was the last to edit the page.
 * Vukky:
 * StatusChanger is a fork of Enterprisey's Status Changer, which adds a UI to the script. (using Morebits, so you'll need to have Twinkle enabled to use it).

All in all, some very neat scripts were written in these last few months. Hoping to see many more in the next issue -- drop us a line on the talk page if you've been writing (or seeing) anything cool and good. Filling in for DannyS712, this has been jp×g. Take care, and merry Christmas! jp×g 07:30, 24 December 2021 (UTC)

MajavahBot - Resolved template
Hello!

Currently MajavahBot on SqWiki autoarchives discussions which have more than a specific period without any interaction. Can it also be made to archive a thread faster than the said period once a certain template is introduced, like for example, the template Resolved? Can that functionality be (almost) global (the bot autoarchives threads immediately in every page that template is introduced) or should it be locally fine-tuned per page? - Klein Muçi (talk) 01:27, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

Bot adding wrong pages to WP:EFFP reports without one
Hey! I noticed that all of the sudden, twice in a row, the bot added the wrong page to the report at WP:EFFPR with no clear reason as to why. Both times, the user making the report didn't trigger any other filters so it definitely wasn't somehow pulling the page from an older filter trigger. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 01:19, 18 March 2022 (UTC)


 * @Blaze Wolf Hi, do you have any example diffs of this happening? Majavah (talk!) 15:59, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Yep. here and here, both of which I corrected after ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:11, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

 * @Klein Muçi Hi and sorry for the delay. Looks like I broke something while trying to upgrade the operating system the bot runs on . I think everything is working now properly (although it'll take a while for it to catch up on the backlog)? Majavah (talk!) 13:18, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Yes, it's back to work now. Thank you! Can you also answer this question while you're here? :P - Klein Muçi (talk) 13:22, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I do not think that's currently possible according to phab:T72249. Majavah (talk!) 13:24, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Sad. 5 years for implementing a single change which is already possible with other frameworks. Human resources really are valuable sometimes. Thank you for your answer! :) - Klein Muçi (talk) 13:30, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Majavah. I hope everything is well with you. this link maybe useful to you. You can check if you were on stretch grid in the past week.  In the link, you will have to replace "usernamekiran" with your LDAP username. My job stopped using stretch grid on April 8. In the mail I had received from wmf, they had said "... long term support for Debian Stretch will cease in June, 2022. We therefore need to shut down all Stretch hosts including Stretch Grid Engine before the end of support date to ensure that Toolforge remains a secure platform." —usernamekiran (talk) 15:58, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

while we are at it, is there any way to avoid particular text being edited by bot? I use mw:Manual:Pywikibot/replace.py on Marathi wiki (mrwiki) for a task something like typos (but not exactly typos). There are a lot of pages where the bot is needed, but on the same pages, there are certain words which should not be replaced. So nobots is not an option. I was thinking about nowiki tags, but it wouldn't be usable everywhere. Is it possible to create "nobot", "/nobot" tags? They should literally do nothing except for telling the bot not to edit the stuff between the tags. —usernamekiran (talk) 17:21, 13 April 2022 (UTC)


 * @Usernamekiran, thank you! Apparently I weren't on that grid. As for your question, can't you sort that aspect out with regex? - Klein Muçi (talk) 22:38, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

Aligner not appearing after diff or preview
Hi, your script only appears on the edit form if you don't click either "show preview" or "show changes". This is because the response to mw.config.get("wgAction") after these actions is "submit" instead of "edit". If you change the follow line in your script from if (mw.config.get('wgAction') !== 'edit') { to if (mw.config.get('wgAction') !== 'edit') && (mw.config.get('wgAction') !== 'submit'){ that will fix it. I'd really appreciate if you could make this change as sometimes I'll run some other scripts first which automatically view the diffs after and that stops your script from even being available to run.

Majavah Bot Task 1 invalid
At here, the bot added an title that the original user did not edit in. Could you please take a look at this? Thanks. <span style="font-family:Iosevka,monospace">0x Deadbeef →∞ (talk to me) 09:39, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

Quick concern re: MajavahBot
I'm not sure that the bot should copy user-generated section titles in its edit summaries. This seems like it might be vulnerable to some sort of attack related to the use of inappropriate or privacy-violating section titles. — <span style="background: linear-gradient(#990000,#660000)"> Red-tailed hawk (nest) 21:42, 17 February 2023 (UTC)


 * @Red-tailed hawk Fair point, I've went ahead and adjusted the summary generating code to not include the actual section titles. Thanks. Taavi (talk!) 21:25, 26 February 2023 (UTC)

MajavahBot Task 1 down?
Hi Taavi, is MajavahBot Task 1 down, because there has been an absence of archiving since the 17th April, and there hasn't been much clerking happening from MajavahBot. Thanks, Zippybonzo &#124; Talk (he&#124;him) 15:37, 21 April 2023 (UTC)


 * @Zippybonzo It had indeed got stuck somehow. I've restarted it and it's now working properly again. Thanks for the ping. Taavi (talk!) 17:27, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

Is this intended behaviour?
In diff:1161028592, at the very bottom, the bot adds a template that says it fixed the page title of the report. It obviously did not do that, as there was not even a report, just random characters. Is that the "notify" behaviour mentioned in item a) of User:MajavahBot? – 2804:F14:80B3:CB01:9C5E:86B:78D9:3A49 (talk) 05:31, 20 June 2023 (UTC)


 * This is a pretty classic GIGO case. I'll patch the bot at some point to not leave a comment if it can't add the page title, but it's not a particularly severe bug. Taavi (talk!) 11:54, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

Odd edit by bot
I'm looking at this edit, and I think the bot erroneously marked the edit as fixed (the edit summary included the claim that the bot added the affected page name, but it does not appear to have done so). The edit was very broken to begin with, but just wanted to let you know. — Red-tailed hawk  (nest) 14:06, 25 June 2023 (UTC)

Hi! I'm looking at this edit, and the bot appears to have marked it as fixed despite not having fixed it. — Red-tailed hawk  (nest) 15:05, 30 June 2023 (UTC)


 * @Red-tailed hawk Indeed, it seems to do that when the report formatting is already completely broken. I thought I had fixed this already but apparently not. Taavi (talk!) 16:55, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
 * @Red-tailed hawk I think this is now really fixed, ping me if you see it happen again please? Taavi (talk!) 22:52, 30 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Will do. — Red-tailed hawk  (nest) 22:56, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

Bot down?
Not sure if you were already told or noticed, but MajavahBot appears to be unresponsive. It has not been archiving or commenting on any WP:EF/FP/R report since around ~19 hours ago (15:29, 11 July 2023 UTC), although it did edit its Bot status report page 2 hours later. – 2804:F14:8087:2401:A9B4:1D32:7E56:C04B (talk) 10:28, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Indeed. Quite ironically it was broken because I was working on adding checks that would catch these kinds of programming errors automatically in the future. Taavi (talk!) 10:55, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Interesting Edit on TrueNAS
For some reason the version table was removed from this page. It was cited as not idependently sourced but it was sourced directly from their documentation.

In the case of this being a conflict, who would be best to source this information? A different site that is forwarded a list of version changes from iX themselves rather than directly the documentation that iXsystems puts together?

I am at a loss here on how this is considered "not based on independent sources"? Is the official documentation not considered a source of truth?|

Furthermore, how is the version release that lists fixing bugs that prevents users from using certain elements considered "promotional"? Wsoteros (talk) 19:38, 25 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi, Wsoteros. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information: we cover topics that reliable, independent (not: the company itself) sources cover, so I removed the changelog section as it was only sourced to the TrueNAS site itself. If you look at macOS Sonoma for example, you can see that it's mostly sourced to various tech publications and not Apple itself, so including that level of detail about that version is fine. If iXsystems wants to publish the full changelog somewhere they can do it on their own website for example. Taavi (talk!) 11:10, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the reply and my apologies for the frustration.
 * We will stick to those guidelines for future edits. Wsoteros (talk) 14:08, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

Can UTRS support the Chinese Wikipedia?
(mechine translate) Hello, I am a contributor to the Chinese Wikipedia.

As you may know, due to internet censorship by the government of China Mainland, people there have to use technical means, including open proxies, to access and edit Wikimedia projects. Therefore, IPBE are necessary for them.

We are currently discussing changes to the application process for IPBE in order to address the growing backlog of applications. Prior to this, the Chinese Wikipedia used an email list to handle applications, but some administrators found it to be cumbersome and inefficient. Someone noticed that UTRS supports other wikis, so I am asking if it can support the blocking process for the Chinese Wikipedia.

Can UTRS grant IPBE? Can it create new accounts? Can it grant permissions in bulk?

询问UTRS是否可以支持中文维基百科

你好，我是中文维基百科的的贡献者.

正如您所知道的，由于大陆政府的互联网审查，在那里的人不得不使用技术手段，包括开放代理，访问和编辑维基媒体项目. 因此对于他们来说，IPBE权限是必要的.

我们正在讨论更改申请IPBE的流程，以促进日益严重的申请积压. 在此之前，中文维基百科使用邮件列表来处理申请，一些处理的管理员提出这样容易疲劳且低效. 有人注意到UTRS正在支持其他维基，因此我向您询问是否可以支持中文维基百科的封禁处理.

UTRS可否授予IPBE？可否创建新账户？可否批量授予权限？ 落花有意12138 (talk) 05:44, 21 January 2024 (UTC)


 * @落花有意12138 Hi! Unfortunately I have not been involved with UTRS in a few years. /cc . Taavi (talk!) 17:09, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
 * It currently is not able to automate onwiki granting because the functionality has not been built simply because it hasn't been needed and has accountability issues. By extension it can't create accounts yet either. -- Amanda (she/her)  01:49, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
