DipankanBot
Operator:

Time filed: 06:09, Wednesday May 30, 2012 (UTC)

Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic

Programming language(s): Python

Source code available: Pywikipedia

Function overview: Welcoming new users, adding missing and select 'Edit with IDLE' and then go to line 331. Swapout Filnik for Dipankan001. There you are. It will report in your userspace now, instead  of the guy's this script was originally written for.  Rcsprinter  (yak)  18:24, 26 June 2012 (UTC)
 * ✅. Thanks for the help! Dipankan  ( Have a chat? ) 14:53, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
 * All issues seem to have been adressed. As a nearly-but-not-quite BAG member I can't give a trial myself, but am recommending a seven day trial to commence as soon as a BAG puts the proper template up. Neat idea, Dipankan.   Rcsprinter   (yak)  @ 11:28, 7 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure that we need a bot task that will duplicate ImageTaggingBot's functionality; as there's no harm inherent in such redundancy, however, you are as long as you change this line 'en':[u'{{nld', u'{{no license'], to this 'en':[u'{{nld', u'{{no license', u'{{untagged'], so your bot will recognize files that have been tagged by ImageTaggingBot. &mdash; madman 19:13, 10 July 2012 (UTC)


 * {{OperatorAssistanceNeeded|D}} Almost done yet?  Rcsprinter  (converse)  @ 16:30, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Ya it is. Dipankan  ( Have a chat? ) 06:08, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
 * {{BotTrialComplete}} then, so it can be reviewed. &mdash; madman 20:39, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Looks like it tagged one file correctly, but all the rest of the edits were making useless reports. What is its criteria for "fake licenses"? FURs certainly shouldn't be considered "fake licenses", or every new file uploaded with an FUR noted. The bot is noting templates like Do not move to Commons and AWM-image as fake licenses, when there are perfectly valid licenses below them. I'm inclined to think this aspect of the Pywikipedia script is hopelessly outdated and as such, not useful at all. &mdash; madman 15:37, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
 * {{BotDenied}} – This task is not sufficiently useful, given its problematic implementation, to justify approval of a task already adequately performed by another bot. &mdash; madman 03:58, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
