Community Tech bot

edit

Please put the bot's data dumps into Wikipedia space instead of article space. I've deleted the last two runs, please let me know where you'd like them restored if you don't have the permissions. Acroterion (talk) 15:45, 6 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Extremely sorry for that. I'll fix that. NiharikaKohli (talk) 15:46, 6 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
No problem, it happens more often than you'd think. Acroterion (talk) 15:48, 6 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia:Database reports/Forgotten articles

edit

Dear Niharika,

I would like to run the forgotten articles query in the German Wikipedia, too. Could you do this?

Cheers, kopiersperre — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kopiersperre (talkcontribs) 06:38, 24 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi, Yes, I can do this. Where would you like me to dump the results? And would you want me to run it periodically via the bot? We don't have a bot flag on dewiki yet, so that might take some time. -- NKohli (WMF) (talk) 09:30, 24 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
Hi, you could dump it here. Having a periodic bot run would be nice, but it's not necessary. Is it also possible to get a list of the smallest articles (in kb)?--Kopiersperre (talk) 08:02, 26 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
Hi, now that we have an approval for running the bot on dewiki, can you tell me the dewiki URL corresponding to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Database_reports/Forgotten_articles on enwiki, so I can publish the report results there? Also, it'd be great if you could translate the report intro text and table headers for me. Just dump them here. -- NKohli (WMF) (talk) 17:58, 30 October 2015 (UTC)Reply
Hi, German Wikipedia does not have regular database reports. So you can place it where you want, e.g. here. I will inform the people about this new report.--Kopiersperre (talk) 12:06, 1 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

Thanks! -- NKohli (WMF) (talk) 18:29, 2 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

This has now finished running. Give it a look and tell me if it looks okay. There might be some bugs. -- NKohli (WMF) (talk) 22:27, 2 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the bot run, it has got some resonance. One person has argued, that the bot is missing articles, e.g. Eudos was edited last on 29 August 2013‎ and it's not on the list, which is going to 30 September 2013.--Kopiersperre (talk) 10:08, 3 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
May you please tell me, how the bot works? Does it look for the page_touched field?--Kopiersperre (talk) 11:00, 15 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
Hi! Sorry for the delayed response, I was traveling for a couple of weeks. Yes, it looks for the page_touched field, which can produce some errors because the page_touched value can be changed by a lot of other factors than actual page editing, such as editing of an embedded template etc. However, in testing I found the percentage of such errors to be quite small, though admittedly I didn't test it exhaustively. The problem with using the exact last edit timestamp was that it increased the query time massively. Very large queries are, as of now, not supported on the labs infrastructure. Due to this reason, a number of reports on the english wikipedia have stopped working, or are intermittently working. Hence, reducing query processing time was one of our main concerns when writing the bot. Feel free to reach out if you have more concerns or have requests for making other reports available on dewiki. Thank you! -- NKohli (WMF) (talk) 05:13, 16 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
And, wow! It certainly got a a lot of resonance. Can you tell me if the general sentiment is positive or negative? :) I'm not familiar with german, but it'd be nice to know what people think of this report and if there's interest in getting other similar reports. Thank you so much. -- NKohli (WMF) (talk) 05:23, 16 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
German Wikipedia is quite a shark pool. Some people have liked it, some argued, that time to last edit has nothing to do with quality and some argued, that the query is flawed. Merlissimo has made another database report as a consequence.
May you update the text to my changes?--Kopiersperre (talk) 09:15, 16 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the updated text. I'll include it for the next bot run. Can you tell me how the new database report (created by Merlissimo) is correct? For the few pages I opened, the date in the report does not match the last edited timestamp of the page. Am I missing something here? -- NKohli (WMF) (talk) 13:27, 16 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
The query from Merlissimo excludes Bot edits (source code is inside the <!-- --> block).--Kopiersperre (talk) 15:26, 16 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
I see. That's a good idea. :) -- NKohli (WMF) (talk) 05:39, 17 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi Niharika,

please change the text to Diese Liste enthält die 1000 Artikel, die am längsten nicht mehr bearbeitet wurde.
