Your bot causing problems with Cai Li Fo page

This is a great page here which gives credit to many of the branches of Choy Li Fut - a style of martial arts.The only reason why anyone would want to change the name of this page is for political reasons. Lets keep politics and passions out of this wiki page and concentrate on the content. I believe that the page should be left as Cai Li Fo. I will add both Mandarin and Cantonese to the top description. Okay, let me explain the linguistic problems. First Chinese as a spoken language is tonal not phonetic like most western languages such as our English. There are basically 4 tones in Mandarin, 7 in Cantonese. The system of writing Chinese words into English is called Pinyin. For example "choy" can be written as "Choi" or "Tsoi", etc. That is because it is difficult to write tones and refined sounds into letters. To try and standardize the English writing of Chinese words and to take into consideration pronunciation, pinyin standards such as Gwoyeu Romatzyh of 1928, Latinxua Sin Wenz of 1931,Wade-Giles (1859; modified 1892), zhuyin, etc.. were created over history to address these problems. Each of them had differing standards. The official 2009 national standarized pinyin of China is called Hanyu Pinyin. There are 107+ known spoken dialects in China. In Cantonese alone, you have dialects such as Toi-san, Sam-yup, Sei-yup, Gok-gong, Hakka, etc.. Each will pronounce "Choy Li Fut" slightly different, thus the transliteration to English, depending on what pinyin you used, and when it was used, will create differences in the English spelling. An example would be the word "Chi". If you use the Chinese Postal Romanization, you can write it as Chi, ch'i, and hsi (pinyin ji, qi, and xi) are represented as either tsi, tsi, and si or ki, ki, and hi depending on historic pronunciation, etc. The official Chinese Hanyu Pinyin of 2009 romanized spelling of Chi is Qi, whether you like it or not, whether you are from the South or North. So arguing whether Choy Li Fut should be written as Choi Lei Fut or Tsoi Lee Fot, is ridiculous and wasting time. If you wish to conform to the most popular Southern Cantonese standard for the name, the "Choy Li Fut" would be the one. Another problem. To make Choy Li Fut a widely known martial arts in China, and to standardize it's name. You have to use Mandarin. To unify the country as a whole and remove the dialect issues. The government of China made Mandarin the official language of China. Since Hong Kong is now part of China again, Mandarin is now the official language in Hong Kong even though people still speak their dialects. Even with written and spoken Mandarin, Taiwan uses the older written language while mainland China uses a simplified version. Most people born and educated before WWII in China and Japan can read the old style of writing as well as the newer simplified form. To deal with this issue, I will mention both names at the top of the article. To deal with transliterations of the romanized spellings, when a wiki user types in any transliteration of Choy li Fut, Cai Li Fo, Choi Lei Fut, whatever, the wiki has been set up to auto-magically send them to this page. The bot is causing problems with all the transliterations of Choy Li Fut. All the various Pinyin spellings should point to Cai Li Fo as the official name and page.

Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Emijrp! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add reliable, secondary sources to these articles, it would greatly help us with the current 317 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

1. Jorge Zentner - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
2. Antonio Salvador Matarín Guil - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Bug with plus signs

Hi, it's me again. I noticed that when the filename of the to-add image contains a plus-sign ( + ) in it, it turns into a page on the target space (see this diff for example). I suspect it's related to escaping to do (%2B vs. + in a url). --Krinkle (talk) 13:03, 8 February 2010 (UTC)

List of images to add keeps giving old images again and again

Hello, first of all, thanks for the great Images for bio tool. It's really powerful, but i ran into an unpleasant bug (or is it a feature ? ) When i come back to the page with the images to be added, the same pictures, that have already been treated, keep reappearing, like the list of pictures that have been declared "done or useless" was not saved/overriden somehow at each run of your script (I guess there must be a script on the backend that detects the potential articles and pictures and feeds the list on the front end through which we manually add images to articles).

In the beginning, it's not that much of a nuisance : it's a matter of clicking on a couple of images that are already done, to reach the point where new images and articles are suggested. But after a few days or weeks of use, I'm now at a point where i'd have to waste ½ an hour each time to get rid of the old stuff that is suggested again. It's unfortunately not very productive...

I already used and quit using your tool for that very reason almost one year ago (iirc).

I hope you will be able to find a fix or a workaround to this behaviour. Maybe the problem is on my side, but I truly don't see how I could fix it. If you need any help with beta-testing or the like, feel free to ask me, it will be my pleasure.

Thanks, and take care,

Maurilbert (talk) 17:22, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I can confirm this. It's not unsusual to come back to the toolserver-page and find out all images I added to the articles and marked as Done, are back in the list. Though I don't know why or when it happened, it would seem that it happends after the bot/tool did a new round to check for new images. --Greetings, Krinkle (talk) 19:01, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

AVBOT messages

I see it is currently undergoing a trial. Cool, although one thing I would note is that it seems to add the same message even after repeated vandalism. For example, here, the user got two warnings for the same article in two minutes, then five minutes later AVBOT gave it a warning for the same article. Normally the warning from AVBOT would be a level 3 or even level 4 warning, but instead it gave a level 1 warning. Yet another example can be seen at User talk:76.226.200.119. There, the user vandalized the same article twice within a minute, but only received the same, level 1 warning. Again, not a huge deal, but definitely something to think about. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 21:42, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Good Faith edit

About an hour ago I added pics of tattooed genitals to the Genital tattooing article but AVBOT reverted my edit and identified it as vandalism. The AVBOT message encourages users to revert the edit if it's wrong. I did that. Is there anything else I should do? GlooscapSinclair (talk) 00:52, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

Re: Image captions and screen readers

Hi emijrp, yes, images without captions are a problem for screen reader users, because they show an image with no accompanying description. The way that images are shown on Wikipedia is a problem for screen reader users, but that's another story entirely, and requires developer intervention to fix. But captions are very helpful for people like me, so we can have an idea what an image represents. A WikiProject to fix captionless images with links (since those without links are designed not to be read by screen readers) would be a good idea, but I'm not sure how many there are, since captions are useful for sighted people as well.

Can you recat your Andalusia reservoirs as Category:Reservoirs in Andalusia seems as there are many by region? BTW if you have bot coding skills and are keen on content you might want to think about using it to generate content. But the articles would have to be sourced and contain some useful starter info. I did actually propose a GEOBOT back in 2007 to auto generate every village in the geonames databased onto wikipedia. It received a lot of criticism and in the end the bot operator gave up, if it was successful we'd have over 5 million wikipedia articles by now. There is an Indian wikipedian named Ganeskhk who I think has/is planning on adding Indian villages. You should definately address something to him. Dr. Blofeld 14:02, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Hello Emijrp, I saw you had deleted this page User:BOTijo/Code/1, what's wrong ? Because I have my own script where I use fileIsOnCommons(). Since June I didn't use it, but with the latest version of pywikipedia, I meet a problem, for any image on commons like file:Mike Tindall 2005.jpg, i have no True answer with fileIsOnCommons(). I'm using my old version of pywikipedia just for this script, but how to fix it ? Thanks --Sisyph (talk) 08:57, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi. That code generated a list with useful images for biographies, but now, I use a different script that generates this contain. Furthermore, I have introduced many features and fixed many bugs i the current version, so, the old script you are using is really old (from 2007). I blanked the page to update the info User:BOTijo/Code/1. Also, you were editing my sandbox User:BOTijo/Sandbox[2].

About fileisoncommons... I have used it recently, and I hadn't seen any problems. Have you really updated to the last version? I use subversion and the command "svn up" to update my pywikipediabot. Regards. emijrp (talk) 09:06, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

Oops, i'm sorry for your sandbox. I guess that the reason why you erased your page. For my problem, I really don't know why there is a difference. I am not qualify to understand, probably it's a stupid mistake from me. I will try later to check that, I have few time now.

Hi there, if you wish to operate a bot, Wikipedia:Bot policy requires that you get it approved first. Therefore I'm here to ask you to please turn off User:AVBOT for the time being until you get approval for it. To get it approved, please re-open Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/AVBOT or start a new BRFA. Unfortunately, I have to block the bot if it continues editing. This could jeopardise the BRFA, so please have it stop as soon as possible. Thanks, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:00, 20 September 2010 (UTC)

WP:DE follows the copyright laws of Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The most restrictive law of these three countries is used. (see: de:Wikipedia:Bildrechte#Wikipedia richtet sich nach DACH-Recht) --GDK (talk) 11:32, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, but if you know nothing about copyright law, then don't create such a tool. For the German WP, please have your tool not suggest all images that are licensed commons:Template:PD-US-no notice, commons:Template:PD-US, Template:PD-1923, Template:PD-US-1978-89, Template:PD-US-not renewed. See the template description: This image might not be in the public domain outside of the United States; this especially applies in the countries and areas that do not apply the rule of the shorter term for US works, such as Canada, Mainland China (not Hong Kong or Macao), Germany, Mexico, and Switzerland. At the German WP, we can't use most of these images, but if your tool keeps suggesting them people keep adding them if they know nothing about copyright. --91.64.225.66 (talk) 15:26, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, but you german wikipedians must learn that "Wikipedia in German language" =/= "Wikipedia of Germany". Servers are in USA, and people can read de.wikipedia.org from all over the world, not only inhabitants from Germany. Also, you must learn that "a policy of Wikipedia" =/= "law". If you have reached a consensus about do not using those images, ok, but that is not law. I have no problem in disabling my tool for de.wikipedia.org. emijrp (talk) 15:48, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

I see. Can you upload the to IA via FTP? I'm uploading (or rather, trying to upload) recent dumps under the tag "Wikimedia projects pageviews":

You can compare number of files and sizes with this spreadsheet, I need help to find errors because IA FTP server is very instable... Thank you, Nemo 17:44, 18 November 2010 (UTC)

Missing names

Hi Emijrp

I saw many missing names in the huge table of geonames. (Names of places which have articles in Wikipedia) Since no editions are permitted how will the missing names be completed ? Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 14:44, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

Those lists are created to see what articles are missing. So, if you say that other articles were created in the past, it is not needed to added them to the list. Right? emijrp (talk) 15:20, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

Hello

Hello, can you create "list of wikipedian by number of edits" in Banjarese Wikipedia? bjn:Pengguna:Emijrp/List of Wikipedians by number of edits. Thank you very much. Mimihitam (talk) 11:32, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Added. Small Wikipedias rankings are updated only once per week, so, please, have patience. Regards. emijrp (talk) 12:01, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks

Hi Arkanosis. Thanks for adding info about the French anti-vandalism bots to the census. emijrp (talk) 12:05, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Re:AfD thingy

Sorry for not replying on the page, I didn't notice it until now. The article seemed to me to be inheritly biased towards WikiLeaks, mainly in the constant quoting of what has been stated by WikiLeaks in terms of wanting help, support, etc. I can't be more specific as the article has been deleted, but I hope that kinda clears things up. Thanks, Ajraddatz (Talk) 19:12, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

It had the full statements of Amazon and EveryDNS. Also, the OVH one. And I think that NPOV is not an argument for AfD, you know, {{npov}} exists. emijrp (talk) 19:37, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi Emijrp, You're welcome. I'm glad you like my Nostalgia imports ... they can turn up some interesting gems! Graham87 00:41, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Statistics update at :sl

Hi, emijrp. Is there any chance that you could run the script to update the list of Wikipedians by articles created at :sl (Wikipedija:Seznam Wikipedistov po ustvarjenih člankih)? You did this once with the Toolserver account, little more than 2 years ago. I'd really love to see current stats (or at least as current as possible). Thanks, — Yerpo ^Eh? 14:15, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

ten: doesn't exist

There is no ten: Wikipedia project. However your bot put such a red link : ten:User:Emijrp/List of Wikipedians by number of edits in eo:Vikipedio:Listo de uzantoj laŭ redaktonombro and where ether you put it. Thanks Arno Lagrange ✉ 13:29, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

Contador de ediciones en tiempo real de una wiki

Hola Emijrp, estoy trabajando en la wiki en gallego donde queremos hacer un evento para el aniversario de la Wikipedia en inglés. La idea es realizar un reto-homenaje intentando conseguir 5.000 ediciones el próximo día 15 (la media diaria de gl: está por debajo de 1.500). Lo que nos gustaría es encontrar alguna página o algo que nos diga el número de ediciones que se llevan realizadas a lo largo del día, para darle un poco de emoción al asunto. El problema es que lo único que he encontrado es ésta página que sólo indica el número de ediciones diarias del día anterior. ¿No conocerás algún servicio o página donde podamos consultar esta información?. Saludos, --Elisardojm (talk) 23:36, 21 December 2010 (UTC)

Que yo recuerde, no existe tal herramienta. Pero no es difícil de hacer, haciendo un simple conteo de las ediciones en la tabla recentchanges de Toolserver comprendidas entre dos fechas, en este caso 20110115000000 y 20110116000000. Si alguien en gl: tiene acceso a Toolserver puede hacerlo, sino, avisame y me pongo yo. emijrp (talk) 14:14, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

He preguntado en la Galipedia y, por lo que me han contado, no hay nadie con acceso a ese servidor. Por otra parte, lo que nos interesaría sería conocer las ediciones acumuladas en el día por lo menos a cada hora. Sería una forma de animar a la gente a mantener el esfuerzo. Si pudieses hacer tu algún sistema para hacer estas consultas te lo agradeceríamos. Saludos, --Elisardojm (talk) 19:00, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Sacar los datos en crudo "es fácil" (aquí está, se actualiza cada hora, incluye ediciones de bots aunque si se quiere se pueden descartar). No sé si con eso os vale o quereis una gráfica. emijrp (talk) 21:00, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Genial!!. ¿Ese script ya funciona para cualquier día o sólo es un ejemplo para el día 26 y 27?. Nos valen las ediciones con bots porque si no si que no llegamos a las 5.000 ediciones... :). Saludos, --Elisardojm (talk) 01:29, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Se actualiza cada hora (las horas están en UTC). emijrp (talk) 14:09, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Funciona muy bien, muchas gracias por tu ayuda!!!. Tenemos previsto hacer un par de eventos, pero aún hay que confirmarlos de forma definitiva, a ver cómo sale todo... Saludos y gracias de nuevo!! :), --Elisardojm (talk) 21:04, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Esa nueva gráfica también está muy bien porque la que encontré yo era demasiado pesada. La única observación que se me ocurre es indicar el valor total en número. Con la gráfica se puede observar de forma clara la evolución, pero creo que también es interesante conocer el valor concreto, por lo menos para el total de ediciones. Pero sólo es mi impresión, claro. Gracias por toda tu ayuda y ya te contaré cómo sale todo esto... :). --Elisardojm (talk) 23:09, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Una pregunta, ¿esa nueva gráfica muestra los datos en tiempo real?. Quiero decir que acabo de consultarla y ya salen los datos del día 31 de diciembre (¿son los datos parciales o es un error?), un poco menos de 400 ediciones, que es lo que está dando en el listado, 362. Yo pensaba que era una gráfica que mostraba sólo las ediciones hasta el día anterior, si esta gráfica muestra la información en tiempo real como lo hace el listado entonces..., ¡¡sería la rebomba!! :). Entonces como te comenté arriba yo lo que le añadiría sería el número de ediciones en la gráfica de todas las ediciones, para tener el dato exacto también en la gráfica. Saludos, --Elisardojm (talk) 13:00, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Se actualiza cada hora, así que conforme avance el día actual, el último punto de la gráfica va subiendo. Estoy mirando cómo poner los números exactos sobre la gráfica, es lo mínimo para dejarla ya terminada. A parte también quisiera poner un enlace a un fichero CSV. Saludos. emijrp (talk) 13:08, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Ya he visto cómo se actualiza la gráfica, ¡¡está genial!!. Muchas gracias por tu ayuda Emijrp, saludos y muy Feliz Año Nuevo!, --Elisardojm (talk) 15:29, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Hola..., mira, consulté hoy la gráfica varias veces y parece que no funciona, sale el texto y el combo para seleccionar la wiki pero no sale ninguna gráfica, ¿hay algún problema?. Es que quería enseñarla en la Galipedia para ir metiendo el gusanillo a la gente... :). Saludos, --Elisardojm (talk) 01:10, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Buenas..., la gráfica de las ediciones sigue sin funcionar, ¿podrías echarle un vistazo a ver qué le pasa?. Muchas gracias, --Elisardojm (talk) 22:41, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

Actualizaron hace unos días el servidor y cambiaron algunos detalles. Ya vuelve a funcionar. Cualquier cosa, avísame. emijrp (talk) 23:07, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

Ya vuelve a funcionar, muchas gracias!. Saludos!, --Elisardojm (talk) 01:15, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Parece que algo no va bien, sólo me sale la gráfica hasta el día 13..., puedes revisarlo Emilio?. Saludos,--Elisardojm (talk) 18:30, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

A mi sí me sale http://img88.imageshack.us/i/glwikijan.png/ ¿Puedes darme más detalles? Mañana el gran día! ; ) emijrp (talk) 18:38, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Ah!, ahora si sale, uff!!, lo miré antes y debía tener algún problema en navegador, ahora ya sale bien. Si, estoy que no paro, y aún me faltan cosas por terminar...! :). Saludos, --Elisardojm (talk) 18:47, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

¡Casi lo conseguimos!. Para la próxima está hecho :).

Hola!. Al final el día 15 no conseguimos llegar a las 5.000 ediciones por un poco, conseguimos 4.347, pero fue un reto muy interesante porque arreglamos muchas pequeñas cosas de la Galipedia y nos demostramos que podemos con ello sólo con proponérnoslo un poco más. Realmente fue un reto muy interesante. El taller también estuvo muy bien, que aunque no asistiera demasiada gente, esperamos conseguir unos cuantos galipedistas más que es lo que importa.

Quería agradecerte la ayuda que nos has prestado que nos permitió seguir en directo la evolución del reto, también te deseo que vuestro evento de Cádiz sea todo un éxito, un saludo, --Elisardojm (talk) 10:04, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

De nada. Me alegro mucho que el maratón fuera un éxito. Gracias a tus peticiones, ahora estoy volviendo a hacer más gráficas, es uno de mis hobbies ; ). emijrp (talk) 11:23, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Tool for creating interwiki-graphs

Good day, Emilio. I think it will be usefull web-based tool, that creates the interwiki-graps for some article. For example, we have an interwiki conflict with article en:Australopithecine and appropriate image for this interwiki conflict. I think that tool it's just a page, that sends some request to the server and gets from server side the result. So, input variables: wikipedia language (en), article name (Australopithecine). Output variable: image in SVG format (because it supports hyperlinks). I know, that I can to generate this image with interwiki.py+interwiki_graph.py, but many people don't uses pywikipedia bots and ever don't know what is it the "bot". But I think that this people can resolve the interwiki conflicts without bots but with this hypotetically tool. --Movses (talk) 21:15, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
