Alphabetizing

I'm not sure if this is a bug or just something I can't figure out, so I'm asking here.

IIRC, when I was working on cleaning up the baseball all-time rosters a month or so ago, and I'd load all the links on the page in AWB, it would load them in the order it found them. Now it's loading them in alphabetical order. Is there a way to load them in the order found? It would make editing the original page (to correct bad links) much easier.--Kathy A. 15:24, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Can you clarify why it makes it easier to have them in the order found? Thanks. —METS501 (talk) 19:18, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
The All-Time Roster lists are alphabetical by last name and divided into sections by letter. So Joe Adams is in the A's, Bob Smith is in the S section, etc. AWB puts all the Bobs together, so as I find links that need to be fixed (because Bob Smith really goes to a TV evangelist, say, instead of the MLB player), I have to jump from letter to letter. If the links were in the order on the page, I could do several edits in the A's before moving on to the B's. Not a huge deal -- more annoying because I remember it working a different way, and I can't figure out the setting to get it to go back to that. (And yes, my memory could be completely wrong.)--Kathy A. 00:31, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
And to clarify my clarification -- I'm using AWB to find the errant links, but my edits are in the source page, open in another browser window.--Kathy A. 00:32, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

Mac version/equivalent?

Are there any plans to make AWB available for Mac users? Or, if not, some sort of Mac equivalent -- something that performs medial tasks? --Fbv65edel / ☑t / ☛c || 05:23, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

There is no version for anything other than a windows pc running V2 of the .NET Framework
However, i know a version is being explored for linux, that could be probably ported to Mac in the future. As it is written partly in python, so it is less of a OS specific language. All i can suggest is sitting tight and waiting =) Reedy Boy 09:41, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
Wouldn't mono be a better long term solution? --kingboyk 17:25, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Like Reedy Boy said: nothing yet. If you are looking to run a bot on a mac, though, you can try pywikipedia. —METS501 (talk) 19:10, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Wasnt meaning that. User:BookOfJude is doing a python 'version' Reedy Boy 20:09, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Why did this typo not get caught?

How come AWB did not catch "inagural" on the Barangay Ginebra Kings article? Or the Budapest-Bamako article? It worked on most of the articles, but a couple, like these, weren't caught. This is the regex in RETF:
<Typo word="Inaugurate" find="\b(I|i)nagura(ting|tor|tion|tions|te|ted|tes|l)\b" replace="$1naugura$2" />

Request for SVN write access

I've identified why my plugin was not able to save it's settings, and it's because AWB doesn't tell the framework that the types we are using are serializable. Of course, it works if we use simple generic types like String, but we want at the very least to use key/value pairs and ideally to use a class. I can fix this either by having AWB add the types supplied by plugins to the serializable list at runtime, or by adding some generic settings classes.

Either way, I'd like to request SVN commit access. If you could email me a login it would be greatly appreciated and I'll try to nail this today. I will of course consult with Reedy Boy on MSN if he's around. --kingboyk 17:25, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Sure, I can grant you SVN write access. What's your SourceForge username? You use that as your username and password once I add you as a developer. —METS501 (talk) 19:07, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Didn't have one, but I do now and it's kingboyk :) --kingboyk 19:22, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
OK, all set :-). You should be able to commit now. —METS501 (talk) 19:46, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks man, much appreciated. --kingboyk 19:58, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Explanation need

How does the disambiguate section work? (Gnevin 18:52, 3 March 2007 (UTC))

Try the User Manual: Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/User_manual#.22Disambiguation.22 Reedy Boy 19:45, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
I'd did i'm still non the wiser  :) (Gnevin 19:46, 3 March 2007 (UTC))
Select 'What links here' and then put the page you want to disambiguate links from in the 'What links to' box (eg Olympic). Select the 'Disambiguation' tab and enable. Click in the 'Link to...' box which should then enter the page (Olympic), then click 'Load links' which will fill the variants box with the links from the page (the articles you want to disambiguate to - you can edit the list if you want). Then enter your summary and start, which should then bring up a separate disambiguation box. Select the article you want the link to point to (or unlink the link), select 'Unpipe' if you want to unpipe the link, and press done. You can then make any other changes you want and save and go the the next article. mattbr30 20:12, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
I have added information about the disambiguation box to the user manual. Question for the developers: Does the 'Undo' button only undo the unpiping (rephrased: does it only repipe the link)? If so, could the button be changed to 'Repipe' and moved next to the 'Unpipe' button, or have a button change between unpipe and repipe depending on what could be done? If so, I'll fill out a feature request. Thanks, mattbr30 23:44, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
No, it removes all changes to edit box. I've clarified this in the manual. MaxSem 11:42, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
OK, thanks Max. I've updated the undo all bit as well. mattbr30 12:18, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

regular expressions

Is there any possibility to ignore certain parts of an article, like <math>...</math>, with the help of regular expressions? – 84.179.37.203 18:56, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Not simply. You could use makemodule, and hide all data between math tags with a unique code, then perform the replacements, then replace the content between math tags, but that would be much more work. —METS501 (talk) 05:55, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
Ok, makemodule wouldn't be easy for me, because I have no knowledge about programming with C. Is there another tool in AWB could make this task on a simpler way? – 217.235.9.183 12:07, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
Not at the moment. Try the /Feature requests page :-) —METS501 (talk) 23:33, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Tags on empty pages

The bot really shouldn't be adding tags to pages that do not exist, even though the "skip if doesn't exist" would fix this...it shouldn't happen... ST47Talk 23:41, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Talk pages? Or other pages? Reedy Boy 00:04, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

"Also see" vs "See also"

I noticed the BOT is changing "Also see" to "See also".

To me "See also" isn't correct English, and I think the change should be made the other way.

Am I the only one to think that?

Regards,

JohnI 21:00, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

"See also" is the standard, per Wikipedia:Guide to layout. --After Midnight 0001 01:25, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
Can we change the standard?  ;-) I don't agree with it... JohnI 07:44, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
No problem.... You can discuss that here :-) --After Midnight 0001 00:28, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Creating stubs

I am creating stubs for villages/towns in India using AWB. I do this by using the "append" option to insert the text and then correct the title using "replace" function. For e.g see this. I would like to speed up this process

  1. Can I do this in a single edit? How do i get the title in the first edit itself? I've tried using %%title%% in the appended text but it didn't work.
  2. Each state in India has thousands of villages/towns. Can I get bot approval to create such stubs?

--(Sumanth|Talk) 04:28, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

This can be done in one step by using {{subst:FULLPAGENAME}} where you want the title to go. If you'd like, you can request bot approval at WP:BRFA. —METS501 (talk) 05:00, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks a lot Mets501. --(Sumanth|Talk) 05:10, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

HTML entities

AWB really must be altered to recognise HTML entities (e.g. &nbsp;). I frequently see edits where the final semicolon is replaced by a full stop, upsetting the formatting [2][3]. I suspect the problem only applies to &nbsp;, because the other entities can be replaced by Unicode characters. --Stemonitis 06:44, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

That would appear to have been a consequence of a bug in the tidying of <ref>s which has now been remedied. The question must be asked: did the user involved not notice the sudden appearance of strange text in the middle of the paragraph? if not, were they really paying sufficient attention? HTH HAND —Phil | Talk 15:51, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
Try an updated version and report back to us if the problem still exits!! Reedy Boy 16:01, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Could MediaWiki do some of what AWB does?

Could MediaWiki do AWB-like features automatically? It would be better if you replied at MediaZilla:9228 instead of on this page. Cheers, JasonSpiro 19:07, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

suggestion

maybe it is worth to add "skip option" if no more than XX bytes changed? --gregul

That's really hard to do with the current setup (I think). We're thinking of implementing local diffs sometime soon and then it would be much easier. —METS501 (talk) 03:51, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Searching for pages with no less than two specific links

I'm trying to get a list of articles with both Template:Notability and video game in them, but it just brings up a list of articles with either of those links. Is there a way to have a list of articles with both those links in them? - A Link to the Past (talk) 05:21, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

You can use the list comparer. Save the list of Template:Notability transclusions, and the list of video game links, and then go to List -> Launch ListComparer. From there you can load up both lists, press compare, and voilà! ;-) —METS501 (talk) 05:53, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
When I do the whatlinkshere on the AWB, it's different from the whatlinkshere on Wikipedia. - A Link to the Past (talk) 08:19, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
Are you sure? You're not using like transclusions or anything, are you? —METS501 (talk) 12:10, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
No, I'm pretty sure I'm using Whatlinkshere. Also, all usages of it according to AWB are not on the main pages. - A Link to the Past (talk) 14:17, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
Something's wrong. Can you perhaps email me the list that AWB is producing along with a links to Wikipedia's whatlinkshere page so I can diagnose what the problem is? Thanks. (Special:Emailuser/Mets501 should work) —METS501 (talk) 20:16, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

AWB won't disambiguate

Hi, I'm probably doing something wrong. So, maybe someone can point out my blind spot. Here's my problem:

  1. I set-up AWB to correct disambiguation links to "Draft (nautical)". For that I
    1. Set: Make from to What links here
    2. Set: What links to to Draft (nautical)
    3. Press Make List button
    4. Goto the tab Disambiguation and Enable disambiguation
    5. The text box is automagically filled, so I press Load links button
    6. Goto tab (3) Start and click the button Start the Process
  2. AWB does some work and presents the proposed changes to me.

I'm expecting the Disambiguation dialog box to pop up at this moment but nothing happens. I can see the link in the article, but it doesn't get corrected automatically. Any suggestions are welcome ʍαμ$ʏ5043 09:56, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Fixed, until next version is released you can disambiguate by entering "Draft (nautical)|Draught (nautical)". MaxSem 10:17, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks! That seems to do the trick. Love to understand what went wrong though. ʍαμ$ʏ5043 10:27, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
You'd like to understand? Single link didn't get escaped for regexes. MaxSem 10:42, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
I understand. So I also could have used Draft \(nautical\). ʍαμ$ʏ5043 11:05, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
I know you're on top of it, but for the sake of completeness I've filed a bug-report. ʍαμ$ʏ5043 17:46, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Database Scanner

For the File-Open menu the manual says: Opens a dialog box for you to browse to the database dump which you want to search. It doesn't say which of these files I might be needing. Any suggestions? ʍαμ$ʏ5043 16:25, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser#Database_Scanner does though. You'll probably want pages_articles.xml.bz2 Reedy Boy 21:03, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Problems installing Net 2.0

I know this isn't really the best place to ask about problems with a product from another website, however, I'm probably more likely to get a response here than at Microsoft. I'm trying to install Net 2.0 so I can run AWB, but it keeps telling me I need to install "Microsoft Windows Installer 3.0". But, when I try to install that, it tells me it is already installed and I'm still unable to install Net 2.0. Can anyone help? Veesicle (Talk) (Contribs) 20:12, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, can't help you. Have you searched online for anyone else with this problem? —METS501 (talk) 06:53, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
I suggest dropping an email to Aaron Stebner (Contact Form). He's been very useful to me when ive had problems with .NET and such. He should have some ideas for trouble shooting it, and possibly a solution. If you give him some detail to work on, he's pretty good at getting back to people. Reedy Boy 10:27, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

RETF checking within wiki links

I posted on the Typos discussion http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:AutoWikiBrowser/Typos#RETF_oddities page about how FAR searches within wiki tags, but RETF does not. I was told that this was intentional, but I can't understand why. I could see about preventing potential red links, but I don't get why AWB can't check the text after the pipe. Can someone explain, or is this really a bug? --Thiseye 02:07, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Missing query.php (in-house wiki)

I feel like I'm missing something really dumb here, so sorry in advance... I'm trying to get AWB working on my in-house wiki to bulk-categorise a bunch of pages. I'm running MediaWiki 1.9.3 on Windows XP, and I have AWB 3.1.3.3. My user account on the Wiki is in Bots, Sysadmins and Bureaucrats.

When I try to make a list from what links here, and provide the name of a page, I get "The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found". (Make list from special page, or from user contribs, works.) What it's trying to do is access query.php in the wiki root.

I can't find query.php on my disk, in the AWB download, or in subversion for MediaWiki 1.9.3. Where do I get it?

Cheers, — Johan the Ghost seance 16:10, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

As far as installing it, I have no idea, but you can download it here. —METS501 (talk) 16:52, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks, it worked (after a fashion)! The installation requires a symbolic link of query.php into the Wiki root, and since I'm using an inferior OS with no symbolic links, I had to fool it by creating a query.php in the Wiki root containing:
       <?php
       require_once('extensions/botquery/query.php');
       ?>
Also, I guess it would be nice if the BotQuery extension were mentioned in the install notes for AWB, and maybe in the Extensions category at www.mediawiki.org. Thanks again, — Johan the Ghost seance 17:26, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Compliment to the developers

Um... can the next version be 3.1.3.3.7? :) --Galaxiaad 02:54, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Does AWB handle TM ?

I was just about to edit a page that was full of ™'s (&#153). AWB converted this to a little blob. It may have been the resolution of the output. Does AWB handle this correctly? MortimerCat 20:31, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Can you show us the page where this was happening? I believe it should work fine. Reedy Boy 20:32, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
The article is Procfs. I have just tested it in my Sandbox, and it does lose the TM. MortimerCat 23:28, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Automatically Adding to "Make List"

Is there a way to automatically add pages to the make list feature, or is there a way to put more than one page in the make list field at the same time, so that the list can just be saved in a document somewhere and copied and pasted once. I was interested in making a substing bot, and so far, the only thing it seems I would be able to do using AWB is typing each template in manually (or copy and paste) in the make list field and then clicking, "make list" when it's set to what transcludes here. --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 13:35, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Load the list of templates, e.g. from a text file, select them all, then right click and choose "Add selected to list\From transclusions". I think that answers your question? --kingboyk 13:42, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Right click where? --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 13:44, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
In the article list. Load the list of templates into the article list e.g. by importing from file. Move your mouse cursor to the top template in the list and click it. Hold down the SHIFT key, and click the bottom template in the list. You have now "selected" all the templates, and they'll appear blue. Now right click inside that blue area and you'll see a context menu. --kingboyk 14:02, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks! --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 14:22, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Added a Ctrl+A Option to select all. Will be in next version Reedy Boy 14:42, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Could a Ctrl+C option be added also in the article list? The currect process I would use for the bot is currently a little long. --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 14:45, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
Also added. Reedy Boy 15:53, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
There is also now a Cut and Paste Option..... Reedy Boy 21:11, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Help

I don't know if this is the correct place to post this, but I have just downloaded AWB and am a 'checked-user' so all should be fine, except it keeps crashing for no reason. I'm running XP and although I use firefox, I've logged in through IE. Crashes are either immediate or at any time. I have made some edits with it which have worked fine, then while processing a list, it will 'need to close'. I don't think this is due to the settings as sometimes it won't get that far. Can anyone help? –MDCollins (talk) 15:34, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Bot stops when database locks

Can it be made so that if the database is locked, that bot will reattempt to save and keep going instead of stopping the run. --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 19:59, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

It should do that anyway...? Reedy Boy 20:10, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

How to go back

After I click save after making many manual edits in addition to automated edits, I've found a message saying my session data was lost. Is there a way to go back to the last page, or reload the attempted save? :: ZJH (T C E) 19:48, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

The only way to do this (i dont think that a method is currently implemented), is to have it save the text temporarily in the string, and if that particular error message comes up, reput this back into the text box. Its not an error ive seen with AWB though Reedy Boy 12:14, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

on the learning curve

Two things ...

  • 1) My current barrier seems to be when I go to download the file pages_articles.xml.bz2, what downloads is of insignificant size and the transmission does not display any errors of any kind. (I'm using a cable modem and haven't had trouble downloading other large files.) I've checked all the links for help I could find, and have not gotten anywhere, so I'd appreciate any suggestions.
Have you tried using a download manager? Reedy Boy 11:05, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Someone else has suggested Filezilla, which I've downloaded but not figured out yet. Keesiewonder talk 11:44, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
I use flashget to get my dumps. Reedy Boy 12:12, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Excellent! With flashget, I've been able to do the download! Keesiewonder talk 13:22, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
  • 2) Also, even when not trying to explore the 'make list from database dump option,' AWB is frustrating in that 'saves' rarely take due to ... ??? ... servers being overloaded or something? ... --Keesiewonder talk 09:54, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
Thats a bit weird... Does it not display a message? Reedy Boy 11:05, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Correct, no message from AWB. I do believe it is a problem with server access/activity levels. Concurrent to this behavior in AWB, for instance, I also couldn't do an edit count check. Keesiewonder talk 11:44, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Its very infrequently that i have a problem with saving.... Reedy Boy 12:12, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Ok, here's a third:

  • 3) Does the summary line lie? I rejected what was suggested by AWB as a typo correction; the change did not take, but, the summary line says I did it ... What's going on here? Here's the actual edit I made, so you can see I did not fix the "typo" it reports ... Keesiewonder talk 23:44, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
Thats a bug i suggest it should be adding added Wikipedia talk:AutoWikiBrowser/Bugs(Gnevin 11:01, 23 March 2007 (UTC))
How did you 'reject it', did you just change it back manually? If so, of course it wouldnt make any difference to the edit summary. Reedy Boy 11:05, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
I did not touch the edit summary when I rejected this. Rather, I edited the article content in the lower right window to be the way I wanted, confirmed with preview and 'show changes' that the surname was not getting changed, and then issued the save. The article content saved correctly; the part of the edit summary I have no control over "assumed" its "typo find" was a keeper, and said I did it ... I'll report the bug this evening ... unless you or someone else does it first. Thanks for getting back to me; I appreciate it! Keesiewonder talk 11:44, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
Yeah, thats what i do. When you do the show changes and preview, this basically fires the event off in the web browser in the same was as if you were manually editing it, AWB isnt currently doing the work for it. Im not sure how to really fix it, i know Steve commented on one of my edits like that, the typo list was wrong (i corrected the problem), but also changed the word before i saved, which was at first, not apparent to what had happend, he thought something could eb up with AWB, ie it was saying it had changed a spelling, but it hadnt. Reedy Boy 12:12, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
If you don't want AWB to generate the summary for you then there is an option to turn that feature off. I think you can do it just for that edit. (IE, edits where the change was undone by the operator) but I haven't tested that. ---J.S (T/C/WRE) 13:46, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
I think removing custom summaries when user manually edited would be the best. MaxSem 14:41, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
I don't think that option applies to RegExTypo fix. I had similar situations where I manually changed the fix back,and got a user telling me off for the change I hadn't made! Rich Farmbrough, 17:46 24 March 2007 (GMT).
  • Exactly. I feel that's what's happening to me too. I'll work on documenting the steps to reproduce this so perhaps it can get fixed. Keesiewonder talk 21:13, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Stops Loading Pages

It seems that every few pages, AWB stops loading the page, even when it's the front window, and then doesn't restart loading. I must click stop and then start to get it to restart, only to have it stop again in less than a minute. --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 13:16, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Timer

Why does AWB have to reload every page after 30 seconds? This is not enough time for me to check the page so can I make the timer be a minute of more?--Natl1 (Talk Page) (Contribs) 15:58, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

All wikis are already supported: just go to custom project and in the url field enter zh-yue.wikipedia.org/w/. As far as built-in support, it's difficult due to the dash in the name. —METS501 (talk) 17:24, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks a lot. Hopefully the wikipedia will change to the ISO code yue as soon as possible. — HenryLi (Talk) 17:45, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
Soon as they do, give us a shout and we can get it implemented!! Reedy Boy 18:19, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Bug revert project

When AWB has a bug, it could affect many, many articles. Should we have a project to attempt to rectify any bug-created errors across all AWB users? Good PR as well. Rich Farmbrough, 17:57 24 March 2007 (GMT).

We could do, but the errors tend to generally be not major... Hmm, lets see what the general concensus is :) Reedy Boy 18:18, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

Copy and Paste

First of all, I love the new features, including the deselect all button on the filter option, and the CTRL+A function. However, when attempting to copy and paste from the list, it will only paste the first page thats been selected to copy. --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 00:19, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

/Bugs. Thanks. —METS501 (talk) 05:07, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Actually, no need to post anymore. Fixed in the next release —METS501 (talk) 05:31, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Only Thing Mets,
copyToolStripMenuItem.Enabled = lbArticles.SelectedItems.Count == 1;
            cutToolStripMenuItem.Enabled = lbArticles.SelectedItems.Count == 1;
On the prior commit, i realised the above was the case, so i changed it so you could cut and copy if only one article selected. I'll change it back now Reedy Boy 09:36, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Bot Stops When Editing Protected Page

It seems my bot stops when attempting to change a protected page. Protected pages it skips are fine though. --TeckWiz ParlateContribs@ 00:55, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
