MifterBot I
Operator: Mifter (talk)

Automatic or Manually Assisted: Automatic

Programming Language(s): AWB

Function Summary: To tag Non-free svg Images with SVG-Logo

Edit period(s) (e.g. Continuous, daily, one time run): Should Be a one Time run, although, I plan on using the bot later for other AWB bot tasks.

Already has a bot flag (Y/N): N

Function Details: This bot will tag all Non-free Logos with the file extension .svg with SVG-Logo using a custom created list (I have created the first list which can be seen here), and to prevent the bot from tagging any non-free svg images that are already tagged, it uses the regex (SVG-Trademark|SVG Logo|SVG-logo|SVG logo|Svg-logo) in AWB's skip feature which will skip any images with the template already on them. The regex is derived from here (Just a note here, I am not the best regex coder, I normally work with python, so if my regex is wrong, please don't hesitate to tell me :) ).

What if image is not a logo? BJ Talk 23:10, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Oops, that was poorly thought out on my part, easy enough to fix though, instead of checking all non-free Image, I can have it just check all images that transclude Non-free logo onto the Image page, which after a quick check is still over 15,000 Images.

on the Non-free logo subset.  MBisanz  talk 16:17, 14 October 2008 (UTC)


 * The Bot's trial is complete, and to my knowledge there were no issues with the trial :), all of My Bot's contribs can be viewed here. Thanks and All the Best, --Mifter (talk) 00:37, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
 * The template seems to overlap Brands of the World SVG. BJ Talk 22:41, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, I had noticed that, and, I have added it to the bot's ignore regex which now reads (SVG-Trademark|SVG Logo|SVG-logo|SVG logo|Svg-logo|Brands of the World SVG), so now the bot should ignore any pages with the template on it. If there are no other issues, would it be possible for my bot to be approved and flagged?  Thanks in advance and All the Best, --Mifter (talk) 23:31, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
