MDanielsBot 9
Operator:

Time filed: 18:38, Friday, December 23, 2022 (UTC)

Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: automatic

Programming language(s): AWB (but may rewrite later)

Source code available: AWB, https://quarry.wmcloud.org/query/69918

Function overview: This task would
 * a) convert to Copy to Wikimedia Commons with hidden file revisions (which simply includes the category).
 * b) Add Copy to Wikimedia Commons with hidden file revisions to files output by https://quarry.wmcloud.org/query/69918.

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): None.

Edit period(s): a) one-time. b) undecided, but probably weekly

Estimated number of pages affected: a) 205. b) 138 at first, then probably <10/week?

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes

Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): Yes

Function details: This task would
 * a) convert to Copy to Wikimedia Commons with hidden file revisions (which simply includes the category). This is useful because this template can be automatically removed when exporting to Commons, while the category cannot (see m:WMDE Technical Wishes/Move files to Commons/Configuration file documentation and mw:Extension:FileImporter/Data/en.wikipedia).
 * b) Add Copy to Wikimedia Commons with hidden file revisions to files output by https://quarry.wmcloud.org/query/69918. This allows requests for unhiding to be submitted.

Discussion
It's been a week and a half without comment or objection, so per the instructions for bot operators, marking as BAG assistance needed. Best, &mdash; Mdaniels5757 (talk &bull; contribs) 15:01, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Trial duration is whatever you think is appropriate to demonstrate the bot's correctness. Task seems uncontroversial and useful. (Weird that the extension isn't able to do that...) Enterprisey (talk!) 04:44, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I settled on 5 edits for each subtask, as this is a pretty simple task and I can't think of a possible bug that more edits would turn up (and yes, I know writing this down is going to jinx something). Special thanks to for granting AWB access, which I forgot to ask for :).
 * Subtask (a): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
 * Subtask (b): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
 * They all look good to me. &mdash; Mdaniels5757 (talk &bull; contribs) 17:02, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
