Error in counting edits

Latest comment: 15 years ago19 comments4 people in discussion
Status   Fixed in the next release
Description I am using in bot to make on a list to make some replacements. Even if some in some articles there is not edit, AWB keeps increasing the Edit count instead of the Ignore count Magioladitis (talk) 23:59, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
To duplicate: I ran it in What transcludes page {{Infobox 24 Character}} with general fixed on and Find and replace set in Normal settings ([[fictional]] character to [[fictional character]]. I had Auto save on.

Not sure i've seen this, the edits seem to match up for me. —Reedy 23:23, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Try loading a list, apply general fixes and Normal replacement of something. Then redo the process. The second time you should have no new edits. -- Magioladitis (talk) 09:49, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Another bug(?) in counting:

 

The Kingbotk counter says I did 4,011 edits and AWB says 4,008. According to my edit count I did 4,010 -- Magioladitis (talk) 17:31, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Ignored counts the same, edit isnt... —Reedy 13:14, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
I think it misses an edit every time it starts after pausing. -- Magioladitis (talk) 19:36, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
Pausing? —Reedy 19:37, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
As you see there are two "nudges". So, I think I pressed "start" two more times after the first one or not...? -- Magioladitis (talk) 19:41, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

I'd be inclined to treat those numbers as an indication only to be honest. Just had a look at the code (it's a long time since I wrote it) and the edit count in the plugin seems to be done here: 

Friend Sub IncrementSavedEdits(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles webcontrol.Saved
            NumberOfEdits += 1
End Sub

What's happening there is that the plugin increments its counter every time the WebControl (part of WikiFunctions/AWB) says that a page has been saved. I suspect at some point your AWB process has hung, and a timer has "nudged" it to restart it. The software thinks a page was saved but it wasn't; the plugin processes the page again and this time it does get saved - and the counter goes up by one for a second time. It might be this or something else but as long as it's accurate with small edit counts/no nudges I wouldn't worry about it. --kingboyk (talk) 20:45, 11 January 2009 (UTC)


Ok, can someone try to do this thing: Load a list and in Advanced template load something stupid like replace "TitusTheFox" with "FoxTheTitus" with skip if no replacement made. In my version, when I am running with my bot at least, every article is counted i n the Save counter and not in the Ignore. -- Magioladitis (talk) 15:52, 26 January 2009 (UTC)

Cannot reproduce (also tried debug build where bot mode enabled). Hopefully the upcoming 4.5 release will fix this for you. Rjwilmsi 18:59, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for trying. I have seen this only happening when I have Automated save on. -- Magioladitis (talk) 19:57, 26 January 2009 (UTC)


 

Here I am again! This time with more evidence. Check the log file and check Special:Contributions/Yobot. Yobot didn't make any edits despite of what AWB states. I can send you the settings file by email if you like. -- Magioladitis (talk) 21:58, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Will have a look tommorow.... Seems auto mode is to blame somehow —Reedy 22:05, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
Yes. The first edits are with Auto mode turned off and the counting was correct. I switched on auto mode the crazy thinks started to happen. I know this is not an important bug. -- Magioladitis (talk) 22:29, 27 January 2009 (UTC)
Woo, found it. It was actually trying to save, and no history of the save, as there was no change. Duplicatable by not enabling skip if no change. I've set it to now skip if skipifnochange or its in bot mode if there has been no change on the actual article. Needs a bit more testing and will commit in a bit. —Reedy 19:53, 28 January 2009 (UTC)
Cool. At least now I know that I am not crazy. -- Magioladitis (talk) 20:02, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

rev 3859 - Fixed. Will upload a svn snapshot later (or do you build from SVN). This still might leave the minor discrepancies between the plugins and AWB (but could also fix them), but at least, fixes the incorrect save reports (which was more major, and wasting resources making null edits) —Reedy 20:15, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Wow! I am happy that this bug report will save resources. Well done Reedy for that! -- Magioladitis (talk) 21:12, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, i made a boo-boo before the release. Already fixed in rev 3844, going to have to release a follow up release soon for it to tidyup —Reedy 17:16, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

In my experience, this error seems to come up most frequently when AWB hits some kind of snafu in the conversion of pipetext to a defaultsort key, i.e. it can't make a decision because different categories have different sort keys in them. Bearcat (talk) 05:00, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Behavior of 'make a list' changed

Latest comment: 15 years ago5 comments2 people in discussion
Status   Fixed in the next release
Description behavior of 'make a list' changed
To duplicate: I 'make a list'. I then 'start' processing the list. As an item on the list is being processed, since the 4.5.0.0 install, it turns a deep blue and I can no longer read the item. Also, if I use my cursor to point to items on the list so I can then 'remove item' from the list, the items turn the same dark blue and are also not readable. Another change is after I successfully 'remove items' from the list, the cursor no longer goes back to point to the next item on the list where I could choose to remove another item. Instead, I have to use my mouse to point the cursor to the next item. None of these changes are helpful if they were made deliberately.

I've noticed it sometimes doesn't appear, but logging in again (you dont have to enter your details), seems to make it. The above change to the if IsBot will have little/no effect on whether its displayed or not, due to if (Variables.User.IsBot && !MainTab.TabPages.Contains(tpBots)) being the same code. Removing the if (BotMode) check would only stop auto mode being disabled if the user is found not to be a bot... —Reedy 22:39, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
I simply forgot to add the line "BotMode = false;" to correct it. The above proposed solution now work the same way the old code worked, correcting the abusive tab removal and your solution doesn't seem very user-friendly, requiring multiples log in/out to use AWB in bot mode.

I fail to ses how AWB is supposed to deduce duplicate categories out of {{subst:BD|1484|1527|subst=subst:}}. MaxSem(Han shot first!) 08:56, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
Let's suppose that the article has {{subst:BD|1484|1527|subst=subst:}} and Category:1484 births. What would we expect to do? First do the substitution and then check that Category:1484 births appears twice and remove one of them. Or not? Moreover, we would expect that the two categories are moved with the others and sorted alphabetically. -- Magioladitis (talk) 10:16, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Today I got this message to my Talk page.

Hello, Magioladitis!
Your bot is working uncorrect: it brokes orders into the categories. [3], [4], [5], [6], [7] and numerous others examples.

It follows my answer:

Hi. This bug is not due to my bot. I am just using AWB to to substitute BD. I can send you the my AWB settings if you want. The only things is done is to substitute BD according to the procedure described in Template:Lifetime. I noticed a couple of bus myself and I reported them to AWB. Please, if possible just fix the pipes in the categories and don't re-add BD. Friendly, Magioladitis (talk) 13:04, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

-- Magioladitis (talk) 13:06, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

OK. It seems the order things happen is this: First AWB checks if the name in the pipe is the ARTICLENAME ignoring the DEFAULTSORT in BD, then checks for duplicate categories (this check is already in the general fixes) and then does the substitution. -- Magioladitis (talk) 22:50, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Fixed in version Unknown


i've just been informed that a key problem a bot (User:SmackBot) has with typographically-significant unicode-representing html codes (specifically: replacing them with raw unicode chars and thereby, in some small but important areas of wikipedia, seriously and significantly reducing the ability of editors to use wikipedia usefully) is likely to recur due to AWB.

i hadn't heard of AWB before and frankly i'm not clear on its relationship with this bot (or vice versa) but the assertion by the bot's writer that "Be aware, however that the next AWB gen fixes to hit that page will probably remove those <p>s you have put in the blockquotes" suggests that this devel community should be aware of the problem sooner rather than later.

rather than risk clouding the issue by trying to paraphrase the problem, i will simply re-post below my initial flagging of the problem to the bot's writer and his response: (emphasis added)

SmackBot: conversion of HTML char-codes to raw Unicode: issue & consequent suggestion

greetings rich. first off, although you've probably heard it many times before, congrats and thanks for smackbot. it does good work, with few errors.

but (you knew there was going to be a but, didn't you), there's an exception:

it passed through French spacing and mungled the examples of different-width spacing in the unicode section. see the 2nd mod block HERE -- note the html charcodes &#8201; and &#8239; have been converted to their raw unicode equivalents, and in the latter example user-content becomes effectively invisible. even given my own knowledge of what should have been there (i created this section (by the miracle of copy-paste)), i thought the code had been completely deleted until i went to replace it and discovered by accident that there was an invisible essentially-zero-width character still between the last word and the exclamation mark.

now i'm in 2 minds as to doing this sort of thing anyway.

PRO: it's technically slightly purer for those on perfectly updated systems using standards-aware (typically paid-for) tools.
CON: it makes the article uneditable offline for anyone without access to unicode-compliant tools, which are much less common than most people think.
CON: some of the unicode codes' characters are not directly creatable on our current keyboards/OSs —that is, they CAN NOT be manually entered, and in some cases can not even be clearly or even visibly observed–can YOU determine at a glance in an edit-window that a gap in the text is not a normal space but actually a non-breaking space?— and in some key cases are not even visible: once they've been forced from being display-time characters to also being edit-time characters, most people lose the ability to directly enter them, and in some cases (eg varying-width spaces) may lose the ability to even see they are there.

but clearly i need to keep SmackBot away from the typographic examples.

i looked at {nobots}, and was about to exclude poor ole smackbot despite his sterling service and well-meaning edits. then i stopped and thought.

i do NOT want to forever exclude smackbot from hoving to with dustpan and brush, monkeywrench and oilcan, tidying up and improving common errors that may be inserted in future by later editors (none of us will be here forever {existential angst} )

but i DO need him not to munge my spacing examples.


then a penny dropped.

SUGGESTION:
modify SmackBot to have a context-sensitive ruleset.
CASE: where an article is tagged Category:Typography, he does NOT execute the html-code-->unicode-char conversion rules.

"simple as that", he says, secure in the knowledge that it's not him that would have to be making them changes...

LESS ARCHITECTURALLY-ARDUOUS SUGGESTION (which in many ways is superior to the above) :
you the developer do one single personal manual pass through the code's config data for the unicode chars smackbot will seek to convert, and remove at devel-time any character with typographic significance (perhaps best defined as: invisible behaviour different from a typewriter font; in particular: spaces).

for now, i'm going to {nobotno,badbot,down!} the article. but it'd be nice not to have to.

i remain,
yours in mutual futile pursuit of perfection,
Sal
Saltation (talk) 11:46, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
OK, I have a solution, but it's not perfect.
First realise that SB is almost exclusively run on WP:AWB, so excluding SB's "general fixes" will likely only buy you time (as another AWB bot will arrive).
There is however an option to ignore nowiki'd text, and a bunch of other stuff. SB is supposed to have this turned on, but sometimes I turn it off to get to picture captions - and forget to turn it back on.
So I've nowiki'd the unicode, which will probably keep most AWB bots away from them, including SB, provided I don't forget an leave the switch off.
Be aware, however that the next AWB gen fixes to hit that page will probably remove those <p>s you have put in the blockquotes.
Rich Farmbrough, 13:49 31 March 2008 (GMT). (tweaked 14:54)
It's not the workaround that "mangles" the paragraph tags, they should in theory go, but they are themselves a workaround to a browser problem, as I understand it. Rich Farmbrough, 19:21 31 March 2008 (GMT).
fair enough -- the need for raw html within blockquotes to mark paragraph breaks did always strike me as a workaround itself.
regardless: i have no problem with a bot or editor altering the markup syntax -- i DO care that multi-paragraph blockquotes continue to be presented to readers in their original (quoted) format: multi-paragraph

<p> deletion in references and notes

Latest comment: 15 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion
Status   Fixed in the next release
Description Note this cleanup (∆ here) on Kilogram. AWB substituted two [returns] for each occurrence of <p>. This works in body text but does not work in notes. This [8] is how I intend that lengthy note to appear—as three paragraphs. Here (∆) is the change I had to make to revert AWB’s cleanup, where I restored the <p> so the note didn’t become one gigantic paragraph like this. The empty <!-- --> with returns in it is there to make the note easier to edit and ensure that if the note rendering engine was one-day revised to be sensitive to simple [returns], that the note wouldn’t then have quadruple returns.

Can you please fix AWB so it doesn’t substitute <p> in notes? Greg L (talk) 00:33, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

AWB will use 100% CPU while processing changes to pages and submitting them for saving. On my laptop this is about a second or two for each action for a small/medium page.

For example.

Rich Farmbrough, 10:03 22 February 2009 (UTC).
Not AWB. Try that regex using any regex tester on the text content of the image and the regex engine will hang for seconds, possibly days until it finally decides there's no match. The problem is having the asterisk wildcard on a bracket group, of which you have two. Rjwilmsi 21:09, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
}(.*?\n*)*\d is a simpler exmple, yet the mystery is not resolved - although I think you are substantially correct it's the combination of the maximal and minimal matching that causes the problem. It runs on some pages and not others, so there is still a mystery, but I guess I'll have to code around the problem. Rich Farmbrough, 13:00 23 February 2009 (UTC).

Plugin-provided edit summary is blanked after editing the text in the edit window

Description When I use an AWB plugin such as the Assessment plugin or the Assessment Category creation plugin, if I edit the contents of a loaded page's edit window and save immediately afterward, the plugin-provided AWB summary is not used and the edit summary is just "using AWB". See [10], where I had to edit the window's contents to assess the page as a disambiguation page. Upon doing some testing on other pages, if I previewed the page or previewed the page diff after editing then saved, the plugin's edit summary fully displayed ("Assessed as...using AWB"). – TMF 08:18, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
To duplicate: Start AWB, then load the assessment plugin. Go to an article and try to assess it using the plugin. Hit "ignore" to go to the talk page. After the window pops up to select a class and importance, select a class and/or importance and hit "OK". Once the box disappears, edit any portion of the edit box's contents (such as adding or deleting white space) then save.

I think theres been an api change.. —Reedy 19:16, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
Actually, scrap that. That is the intended behaviour. Plain "What links here", is just for NS 0 - ie "articles". Use "What links here (all NS)". Same for "What transcludes page", except, there isnt an all NS option... Would you like one? —Reedy 19:24, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
OK. "What links here (all NS)" is good substitution for "What links here".
But it is not substitution for "What transcludes page" - "What links here (all NS)/(inc/Redirs)" gives only links (and redirects). Alex Spade (talk) 19:44, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
It is transclusion. But again, its only for NS 0 (which in most cases is fine). As above, would you like an All namespaces version for What transcludes page also? —Reedy 19:53, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
Yes. I would like to receive the list of transclusions of some page in all namespaces also.
I can do this task with AWB 4.5.0.0/4.5.1.0 (luckily, I have not deleted them from HDD) - the function "What transcludes page" gives 11365 pages.
But I receive 0 page with AWB 4.5.2.0. I'm image/file observer - the NS 0 is second NS for me. The changes in function "What transcludes page" in 4.5.2.0 broken many of my instruments. Alex Spade (talk) 21:33, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
There have been no changes (i dont think). You can still download those versions anyway. What transclude page (all NS) added in rev 4112. Will upload a svn snapshot later —Reedy 21:35, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
I have the same problems on Wiki Commons yesterday "What transcludes page" for "template:Location dms" was giving about 8k files and now (after update) there are none. At the same time Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Location_dms finds 100's transclusions. Something is broken. --Jarekt (talk) 02:23, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Hmm. Not tested on commons (but should be the same on any wiki for the files..) I suspect, its the way the API is handling the files —Reedy 12:14, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
Can we change the status to pending. This part was working in the last version. --Jarekt (talk) 01:48, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
Just done some testing, and not sure what the problem is. If you do "what links here (all ns)", you get the links to the page. You dont "transclude images", so that wont work, and then using "Image File Links" gives you what pages have that image displayed on them... —Reedy 13:49, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
I would like to find all the images (aka files) on Commons that Transclude Template:Location_dms (this set). In the past I was doing it by using: "What transcludes page" option with "Template:Location_dms" and it worked. Now the search does not return anything.--Jarekt (talk) 02:44, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
(unindent). Again, as above, use "What transcludes page (all NS)", you will get the list as per [13] —Reedy 10:24, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

I took the info for these templates from Wikipedia:Template_messages/General#Disambiguation_and_redirection. Both {{redirect}} and {{dablink}} are marked as to be used in the top of articles only. If the documentation is wrong then please fix that first, then I can fix AWB (by not touching these two templates). Thanks Rjwilmsi 11:27, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
Maybe the problem is in the specific use in the article above then. Let's hold it until I have more feedback. -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:09, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
I'll fix the documentation. Many dablinks should be in sections if they are incoming links of redirects. -- Magioladitis (talk) 22:16, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
Do I remove {{dablink}} and {{redirect}} from the list to move to the top, or just dablink? Thanks Rjwilmsi 14:47, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
Let's put a "no" on this one. What WP:DABLINK writes is that "disambiguation links should be placed at the very top of an article, where they are most visible." and WP:HNP writes "Hatnotes are placed at the very top of the article, before any other items such as images, navigational templates and maintenance templates (like the "cleanup", "unreferenced", and "POV" templates)." I think this is not correct in the case the redirects links to a section, because it won't be visible to people redirected in the section. IMO both hatnotes have to stay in sections (in fact to move on the top of the section they are). I have to admit I didn't find any discussion of this problem and I was a bit lazy to start with discussion in WP:LAYOUT and WP:DABLINK. The important for me is that we keep moving on the top dablinks found on the leading section. -- Magioladitis (talk) 20:58, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
Right. I'll keep this simple. rev 4157 Dablinks will only be moved if they are in the zeroth section of the article (or the whole article if it has no sections). That way we won't have to deal with use and abuse of links into sections. Rjwilmsi 22:55, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
Thanks. I think this is reasonable. I think it's common practise what we are discussing here but it seems it was never well documented. -- Magioladitis (talk) 23:06, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Not really a bug, rather a feature request, as AWB doesn't do much with {{lifetime}} at the moment. The documentation for the template says to place it after categories. If we do that the spacing you refer to above will then become correct. Do you want me to make that change? Rjwilmsi 14:44, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

AWB already does place it after categories, and it leaves incorrect spacing after the categories and {{lifetime}}. It removes a blank line whether {{lifetime}} was already at the end of the categories or was moved there by AWB. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 18:49, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Not sure what is going wrong on my PC, however, after trying to restart AWB for some more hard work, it starts fine though when it gets to the login phase, it visually logs in though the application fails, saying it has been failing to load, then applications dies. Event Viewer shows me.

What should happen to the copyedit 'for=' bit? Rjwilmsi 23:42, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
Re notable vs notability: the list of supported templates is from the front page of {{Articleissues}}.
