Bot cleaning
I noticed that Thehelpfulbot made an edit with summary "Robot: Adding missing }}, followed by, , and so on.
 * Spaces between the == and the heading text are optional ( versus ).


 * The MOS leaves wriggle room, but it starts by saying unspaced equal signs are the style markup, so I think a bot needs a strong reason to change to.


 * I realize this is essentially trivia, but people have strong feelings about this kind of thing. I happen to prefer the "no space" rule, but I wouldn't dream of changing a carefully-written article where clearly master editors have been at work, without a good reason (I might make a change if most headings are one style, but a couple aren't). BTW on another wiki I have written a lot of Python bot code, so if you ever feel like trusting a stranger you could contact me if you want a hand. Johnuniq (talk) 00:00, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

Protection of WP:CFD/W
Hi

I have just restored full protection of WP:CFD/W, and left an explanation at Wikipedia talk:Categories for discussion/Working. This undoing your action on a request in December 2008 to downgrade it to semi-protection, and I have restored full protection because CFD/W provides a major security vulnerability which is also (after a previous exploit) very clearly documented.

I am sorry to change this without asking you first, but once the reduced protection had been noted on my talk page (which seems to be widely watchlisted), I thought it better to act promptly. If you feel that I have acted wrongly, please could we discuss it at Wikipedia talk:Categories for discussion/Working?

Call to action
Alarm! Alarm!

We've been working on the country outline drafts for a year now.

Therefore, I've moved them to article space.

All of them.

It's time to finish them up!

The only accuracy problem they have are the government branches sections.

Those need to be completed right away.

I've been working on them and will continue to do so...

But, this task needs everybody working on it now.

Please click on some outlines and fix the government branches sections.

The Transhumanist 00:57, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Move request
Please move:


 * Topic outline of the Bahamas to List of Bahamas-related topics
 * Topic outline of Belize to List of Belize-related topics
 * Topic outline of Bolivia to List of Bolivia-related topics
 * Topic outline of the British Virgin Islands to List of British Virgin Islands-related topics
 * Topic outline of Chile to List of Chile-related topics
 * Topic outline of the Falkland Islands to List of Falkland Islands-related topics
 * Topic outline of Honduras to List of Honduras-related topics
 * Topic outline of Trinidad and Tobago to List of Trinidad and Tobago-related topics

They share the formatting of and belong to the set of pages listed at User:The Transhumanist/Country-related topics list set.

They have nothing to do with the country outlines we've been working on.

There are currently redirects at the destinations listed above, and so I'm unable to make the moves.

Country outlines project update - 2009/03/08
Things have been slowing down again, so it's time for a big push...

We've gone live
This project needed a shot in the arm. Also, its draft pages have been littering Wikipedia's categories for months. The time seemed right to move all the country outline drafts to article space.

WHAT???

Well, the drafts had been sitting in Wikipedia space for a year.

WHAT???

Development has been moving at a snail's pace and we could use the help of the Wikipedia community at large (who are more likely to find these if they are in article space).

WHAT???

Yes, we've gone live. :)

This puts pressure on us to get the blatantly incomplete elements of these outlines done. The only glaring problem is the government branches sections. These need to be corrected ASAP.

I've mentioned THE GOVERNMENT BRANCHES SECTIONS many times to many people over the past year, but the problem just doesn't seem to have been taken seriously. So let me put it another way:

HELP!!! I need your help on this now. Almost all the countries have a government with an executive branch, a legislative branch, and a judicial branch. The links for these branches need to be completed for each country outline:


 * Here's a convenient list you can use WP:LINKY on to access and edit these quickly. Please copy the list's link to the top of your talk page so that you can access it easily.

If you spot any standardization in links, and ways we can automate parts of this process, or for groups of countries that have links in common, please let me know!

Administrative support for outlines
There has been growing pressure on me to write up the administrative pages for outlines - their instructions, guidelines, etc. Therefore, I'm now in the process of composing these. Fortunately, it is mostly a matter of gathering material from messages I've written to you guys over the past year. Still, this is taking up most of my time, and I will be buried in these for the foreseeable future.

Traffic control
The next big task after the government branches sections are cleaned up is link support for the outlines.

There's quite a list of links and notices that need to be put in place around Wikipedia, providing access to them to readers, and alerting editors to the need to develop and maintain these pages. This will keep our bot people very busy (and happy).

But the most important thing right now is to get the government branches sections completed. So please, put your bots aside, roll up your shirt sleeves, and start typing.

Thank you.

One of the country outlines has disappeared!
I asked Juliancolton to move "Topic outline of Bermuda" to "List of Bermuda-related topics", and somehow he got that mixed up and moved it to Outline of Bermuda.

Unfortunately, he appears to have erased the page that was already there!

It was one of the country outlines we have been working on.

Could you see if you could restore it?

Outline of knowledge project update - 2009/03/11
Allow me to shift focus for the moment from the country outline project to outlines in general...

Where's the Outline of knowledge project headed?
It's growing fast, so fast that it is catching up to portals.

I just stumbled on to a subset of 50 more outlines (one for the history of each state of the United States), and have added them to the top of the outline. Buaidh has been busy - it's nice to meet another fanatic outliner. :)

That brings the total number of outlines in article space to about 450.

It won't be long before there are more outlines than portals (which number about 600).

How long before outlines outnumber portals?
Four months, tops.

Then what?
I don't know. Do you have any ideas?

Of course the set will continue to grow. Which branch of knowledge should we tackle next?

And...

Perhaps we should push for Main page coverage?

Need for traffic analysis
We need to begin taking a deeper look at outlines and how they are integrated into (linked to from other pages on) Wikipedia, to optimize their usefulness.

The Traffic counter is useful for monitoring page traffic on Wikipedia.

Though I'm not sure exactly what it measures. Do you know?

What interests me most is the difference between outline traffic and portal traffic. Use the above counter on various portals and the corresponding outlines, to see what I mean.

Is the traffic volume of portals related to the structure of their links?

Where is portal traffic coming from? Can the answer be found in "What links here"?

And what about the portal menu bar at the top of every portal page? Does that account for the huge number of hits the main portal list gets each month?

I also wonder how much of the traffic comes from the Main page. Is there any way to tell?

If you have any ideas on this subject and how we should proceed, please visit my talk page and let me know!

And if you know of any other traffic analysis tools that we could make use of, please let me know!

Geography outlines project update - 2009/03/12
I needed a rest from countries...

The states of the United States
So I switched over to states. United States.

I've added outlines for all 50 to the Outline of knowledge.

How?
The main activity in creating these was using LINKY to execute advanced Google searches on all 50 states at the same time (do a single search on google, then on a Wikipedia user page create a list of state links, then search replace the front and back bracket pairs with the parts of the google search url that come before and after the state's name, respectively - once you have a list of searches, you can easily modify it with search/replaces. WikEd works great for this.  The page I've been using for Linky loads is User:The Transhumanist/Google state searches - but I used it for more than just google searches: check the history to see the various link sets and google search sets I used for linky loads). The search strings "in x" and "of x" reveal a lot about a state. But the magic is in Firefox's tab navigation keys (Ctrl-W) and (Ctrl-tab), which provide a bird's eye view of the coverage of the whole set of subjects. Flipping between the search results for each state using the tab keys, you quickly notice the common titles ("Governor of x", for instance).

As I found common titles, I added them to Template:Outline U.S. State.

Besides Google searching, I used Linky to open all state articles at the same time, to look over their headings (those usually expand into stand-alone articles), and I added the main ones to the outline as well.

Using Linky again, I opened all the lists on the list of lists by state, to look for those with state subheadings. The outlines contain section links to the few of those I found.

When I couldn't stand building the template anymore, I used it to create 50 outlines! That was fun. It's like they appeared out of nowhere.

Further development
The region section contains temporary links - I knew that subset of links would get at least some matches, so I figured that would be better than nothing. I'll swap those out with an accurate list of regions for each state as I find the time. Feel free to jump in and help - I'm not greedy. :)

The standard links I used for the government branches sections matched almost all the states, except for a few in the legislative section. It won't take me long to finish fixing these - there are only a handful left.

There are fewer fill-in items on these outlines compared to those for countries. So these will be much faster to complete. And there's only 50 pages, which makes passes go by very quickly (less than an hour for most passes).

One nice side-effect of doing passes on these outlines is that you naturally memorize the 50 states (forward and backward, if you reverse your passes to alleviate monotony). :)

That brings the total number of outlines on Wikipedia to about 500
Which puts us within 100 titles of portals.

Further coverage of geography
Political divisions lend themselves to rapid outline development because of common titles.

Other sets that are begging for creation include:
 * the constituent countries of the UK (England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland)
 * the provinces of Canada
 * the provinces of France
 * other sets of subdivisions that have extensive coverage on Wikipedia
 * the major cities of the world (those with lots of articles about them)

That last item on the list above looks especially juicy. My mouth is watering.

Cities are pretty fun. So far I've only completed two of them (because they happened to be city-states and were included in the set of country outlines we've been working on): Outline of Macau and Outline of Vatican City. I especially enjoyed outlining Vatican City, because WP:COMMONS had lots of pictures to choose from.

Though cities in general will probably require the building of a new template.

Robot?
Hi THO What do I need to do to keep your (unapproved?) adminbot to stay off one of my pages? I have a small redirect loop in my userspace starting at User:Amalthea/test1, set up as an example for a WP:VPR discussion. By now I've marked it with, , and have fully protected it. This in turn helped against SoxBot, speedy deleters, and Adddbot, but not against you. Can you please make sure that your script Thanks & Cheers, Amalthea  12:15, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) respects
 * 2) respects full protection (I think those should be handled manually)
 * 3) if possible, doesn't fix double redirects in the first place since they are currently working (if by accident)?


 * Hi there,


 * My bot is currently not approved as an admin bot - it was using my account for another task which is on trial. However, I have removed admin access now from the bot as it is currently not needed - and there has been an update to the code of the bot, which will fix this problem.


 * Thanks,


 * The Helpful  One  13:05, 15 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Great, thanks. Please consider issues 1 and 3 from above nonetheless though. :) Or is one of them the "update"? Cheers, Amalthea  13:24, 15 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Hi again. Issue 1 was fixed in the update, issue 2 I fixed myself and issue 3 can't really be fixed - most of double redirects will be working links as Page 1 -> Page 2 -> Page 3 - all the pages have to be created for the double redirect to work as far as I understand. If you have a look at Special:DoubleRedirects, you'll see that this is true (all of those pages have been fixed as of this moment). The  Helpful  One  13:28, 15 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Ah, that's probably X!'s work then. And concerning 3), hmm, I'm thinking that this is an issue with your script then. I've currently the redirect loop test1 → test2 → test3 → test2 Your script made the following three changes, in this order:
 * I'm unsure what it was trying to do. The first tag was, at that moment, incorrect, since all targets do and did exist. It doesn't look like a concurrency issues here, or that the bot was thinking ahead to tag test2 too. The target swapping of test1 was most probably caused by the loop, which the bot should either not touch at all, or handle differently. Evidently, it wanted to fix the double redirect there, which as I said it doesn't have to do in the first place, since double redirects work (and will continue to work if 17888 is implemented, for which there is consensus). In any case, it should have used WP:CSD these days instead of the deprecated WP:CSD for tagging a redirect to a redlink. Lastly, and most importantly, all of the pages have a non-trivial page history, so they should never be speedy deleted, or tagged as such. Cheers, Amalthea  13:50, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
 * These seem to be deeper issues. Dou you want me to move this to Bots/Requests for approval/Thehelpfulbot 5 instead of discussing it here? Cheers, Amalthea  13:59, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Hi there, you can if you wish - but THB 5 is relating to the broken redirect part of the script - instead of the double redirect part of the script (it's one script but 2 parts). However, seeing as thought it is the same script - you probably should move this over. The  Helpful  One  14:01, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
 * OK, copied it over there. The script did still try to fix double redirects, so I think it's also appropriate to discuss it there. Thanks & Cheers, Amalthea  14:18, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

RE: Geography WikiProject update
Hi there,

Well I'm not sure what we could use the images for - awards maybe, but is the Geography WikiProject active, is that what I've been helping out in? I thought this was the "WikiProject Topic outline" project - not the Geography one? If it's for this WikiProject - then perhaps everyone who has been helping so hard should get a special one, customised with their name and a personal comment once the outlines are complete?

The Helpful  One  21:35, 15 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Our team is actually a joint collaboration between the Geography and Outline of knowledge WikiProjects. The country outlines we've been building fall under the scope of both of those.


 * Excellent idea about rewarding our dedicated contributors. That sounds like the perfect use for the World Developer medallions.  I'll get to work on something special to showcase those.


 * Thank you!

How can I edit the flag for Puerto Rico in 1952 Olympics?
Hi,

I'm trying to update the flag used by Puerto Rico in the 1952 Summer Olympics. Here is the Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puerto_Rico_at_the_1952_Summer_Olympics

Please refer to the following PDF to reference the information below: http://www.la84foundation.org/6oic/OfficialReports/1952/OR1952.pdf

If you look at page 234, you can see that the flag matches what the wiki entry shows, which is fine. However PR used the flag in the article for the Olympic Opening Ceremony, and got their real flag while the games were in progress. If you look at page 86, it shows the Puerto Rico flag in the background (the new and current flag), and the following explanation:

"Greece wanted her state flag in the March Past and ceremonies, but sanctioned the use of her merchant flag in general decorations. Great Britain never used her merchant flag on any occasion. The Netherlands Antilles marched under the Dutch flag, but Puerto Rico after having used the U.S.A. flag on the arrival of her team in Helsinki, acquired while the Games were in progress the national flag to which her new independence entitled her. Certain teams wished to march under the flag of their national Olympic Committee This could not be permitted, the I.O.C. protocol specifically laying down that national flags are to be used."

How can I make this change, or perhaps have both flags included?

Thanks.

Hi, re this diff on Ben Chapman (footballer). The bot has added the References section in the External links section, between the asterisk denoting the first ext link and the ext link itself.
