Stub and dead end tag addition to pages about decades

Latest comment: 11 years ago5 comments2 people in discussion
Status   Fixed in the next release
Description AWB randomly, three times, added the stub tag when the page wasn't really a stub at all. Once, on 710s, it aslo added the dead end tag when the page appeared to have several links to other pages. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=310s&diff=prev&oldid=561169378, http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=710s&diff=561169501&oldid=539411138, http://en.wikipedia.org/?diff=561169487< -- (T) Numbermaniac (C) 07:46, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

The decade pages transclude info from {{Events by year for decade}} so they don't have their own content. They just display content from other pages. I can exclude tagging from pages with this template. the pages still need cleanup since they contain empty/useless sections. -- Magioladitis (talk) 09:15, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

I think I know how to duplicate. -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:31, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

The bug is related to Database scanner.

  1. Start the database scanner.
  2. Load a dump file
  3. Select content or leave it blank (it doesn't matter), leave title and text blank
  4. From the "Searching" tab select "missing defaultsort"
  5. Press start

Top pane shows excessive white space.

Latest comment: 11 years ago5 comments3 people in discussion
Status   Fixed in the next release
Description Top pane shows excessive white space. What appears to be in addition to spacing created by the new variations of styles.css, there is additional white space at the top, left, right and (bottom although this is normally scrolled off the end).

For example you can change the style.css to background-color: black; and still see the black inside a white box. The white space reduces what text will fit inside the viewing area, which in turn can create a need for aa right hand scroll bar making the viewing area less again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sun Creator (talk • contribs) 23:02, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

The page is not orphan anymore and AWB won't tag it as orphan. Check my edit here. -- Magioladitis (talk) 11:51, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

No underlinked is needed neither. -- Magioladitis (talk) 11:53, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

(e/c) AWB relies on the "What links here" information. The problem here is that the job queue hadn't got round to re-processing the "What links here" information for the articles using {{Yemeni elections}} after yesterday's edit to the template. I've bypassed the job queue by doing a null edit to one of the articles, South Yemeni parliamentary election, 1978, and it is now listed as an article that links to Yemeni constitutional referendum, 2013. AWB should no longer suggest adding an orphan tag to the article.
I don't think there's a lot that the AWB programmers can do about this. -- John of Reading (talk) 11:56, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

OK, so please find/download the file Microsoft.mshtml.dll and place it alongside your AutoWikiBrowser.exe and restart AWB. Rjwilmsi 16:24, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
I could not find the library on my PC, not even in Windows\Microsoft.NET, so I downloaded one from http://www.dlldll.com/microsoft.mshtml.dll_download.html, but it did not help. Now what? Chris the speller yack 22:07, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

We should add this to FAQ. -- Magioladitis (talk) 16:39, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

Eh? Your saying we should download some external software to make AWB do what it used to do? This seems like a retrograde step to me. At least have the courtesy to tell us, if it can't be packaged with the rest of the software, otherwise you'll soon have a hoard of people like me who come here to report this as a bug.

And downloading the dll file doesn't work for me either. An optimist on the run!   18:37, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
You should not need the dll to retain the existing functionality. I was asking to see if that resolved the issue. In my testing single click to focus diff worked whether the dll was available on the system or not. I specifically tested to ensure that there would be no loss of current functionality, on the two systems I have. It seems on certain systems there is however a loss of existing functionality. I'll investigate further and report back (likely with more questions). Rjwilmsi 19:56, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

Thats not the real problem. It seems to be if you click save in bot mode with "preview the Diff in BOT mode", the Bot timer still running and try to save the second item. So if the list has only one article left, it gives me this.

ZWNJ shouldn't be Unicodified

Latest comment: 11 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion
Status   Fixed in the next release
Description An edit I made to an article using AWB was reverted, because it Unicodified strings like [&zwnj;[[voiceless bilabial stop|p]]]. The &zwnj character is there so that the text is rendered correctly. The problem is that in the version Unicodified by AWB, the character is still there, but it's not written as an entity, so it's invisble. In its intended usage in Arabic, the character itself is still invisible, but it visibly affects surrounding text.

I agree with the reverter that making this character invisible is a bad idea and I think the safest way to deal with this is to never Unicodify this character, by adding it to RegexUnicode. User<Svick>.Talk(); 19:20, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Problem with Template parameter logic

Kumioko Can you please provide a live example? Did you check if the page has/had unbalanced brackets? -- Magioladitis (talk) 06:01, 6 July 2013 (UTC)

No problem here are a couple: Talk:Alfred Genz, Talk:August Becker. If you try and delete the empty parameter directly before the comments it doesn't work.Kumioko (talk) 13:36, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
I should clarify that is using the Template parameter logic on a custom module. But it misses stuff with the build in AWB code too if the parameter comes before a <. It will take me a little while to find another example of that. I also want to clarify it only seems to be in cases where qualifiers like .Length == 0) or ").Equals("no")) are used. If you just delete the field without qualifying if its empty or contains a certain thing it works. Since this will likely be ignored as a problem with the custom module coding. Which I know its not specific too, I will see if I can find some examples of where the built in code isn't working and report that so we can get this fixed. Kumioko (talk) 13:44, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
In the Genz example you want to delete the |Weaponry= parameter? I am dubious about making a change in general as there are other templates where parameters may be included with comments as the content on purpose (e.g. citation templates), so it's not going to be correct to remove parameters only with comments. Are you using RemoveTemplateParameter()? How about you change your logic to remove it if the content is just a comment or length zero. Rjwilmsi 17:24, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
Yes that is correct I was trying to delete |Weaponry=. I agree that we shouldn't be deleting the parameter if it has something in it and in fact there are some parameters we shouldn't delete even if its empty (like |class= in WikiProject banners or |title= or |url= in citation parameters). I am focusing on the ones that are empty, =no or are duplicate parameters. So in the case listed above, it doesn't make sense to me to allow it to be deleted if its empty followed by a | and } but not if its followed by a comment <. I understand if you need to leave it more generic though since its used on so many things. To answer the last question, for the most part I am only deleting them if they are zero length, but the < in comments won't let some be deleted. The code is here. Its not perfect by any means but I don't think its the code stopping it from deleting the parameter. I think its the comment that stops it. Kumioko (talk) 17:57, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
You're removing the field if the length is zero. The length will be > 0 if there is a comment. If you want to delete the field if it has a comment only, then you can implement that in your custom module. I'm not going to change the generic Tools functions since we've agreed comment use is different in different templates. Rjwilmsi 09:31, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
That's fine. I don't really agree that just having a comment means the parameter contains content but I understand you wanting to keep the logic as generic as possible. Kumioko (talk) 11:48, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

Automatik do you remember which settings did you choose in Database scanner to catch this bug? -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:55, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

Magioladitis no I didn't check any option, I just choose a database file in a local file on my computer. Automatik (talk) 13:42, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
Automatik any chance the database file is corrupted? Was the file unzipped? Can you please tell us which file was it? -- Magioladitis (talk) 05:59, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
Sorry, you're right, the file was compressed. Sorry again, I'm really not good with regard to file formats. The tool is great, thanks for it. Automatik (talk) 22:46, 6 July 2013 (UTC)
Automatik maybe there are more who did/will do the same mistake... One step forward: rev 9338. File will be loaded only if with .xml extension. -- Magioladitis (talk) 17:44, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

We only include banners that start with WikiProject... WikiProject Mathematics denies to change their template name. Not AWB's problem. -- Magioladitis (talk) 11:08, 21 July 2013 (UTC)

I think I can adjust my bot to accommodate for this:
  1. Update my version of User:Magioladitis/WikiProjects so it will also change {{maths rating}} to {{WikiProject BattyBot maths rating}}
  2. AWB will see the banner starts with "WikiProject" and include it inside {{WikiProjectBannerShell}}
  3. Create a find and replace rule to change "{{WikiProject BattyBot " to "{{" after general fixes
Besides {{maths rating}} and {{maths banner}}, are there other WikiProject templates that don't start with "WikiProject"? GoingBatty (talk) 05:00, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

I brought this up a while back. At the time the dev's didn't want to build talk page logic into the general fixes. Since then that has changed so I second the request to do this If possible there are quite a few things on the talk page layout that AWB doesn't do which would also be nice to have. Kumioko (talk) 23:23, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

I don't think it's move above GA nominee: [17], [18]. I think it's only talk header. -- Magioladitis (talk) 09:15, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

GoingBatty are you sure GA nominee should go before Talk header? I know that this is written in WP:TPL but maybe it was by mistake? Talk header contains the blp tag in many cases which is stronger than the GAN. -- Magioladitis (talk) 09:19, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

@Magioladitis: - If WP:TPL isn't the most relevant rule of thumb, I don't know what else would be. Do you mean that {{Talk header}} contains the blp tag, or that {{WPBS}} contains the blp tag? GoingBatty (talk) 14:10, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
@GoingBatty: you are right. I'll just leave a question at WP:TPL's talk page to ensure the consensus won't change. -- Magioladitis (talk) 14:12, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

The problem here is that after this discussion, the definition of "dead end" was changed. This unfortunately means that it is too hard for mere software to decide when it is safe to remove a {{dead end}} tag. -- John of Reading (talk) 15:15, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
(More) I posted about this at Template talk:Dead end, and the user concerned, DoctorKubla (talk · contribs), has undone the change to the meaning of {{Dead end}}. It should be safe to undo code change 8946. -- John of Reading (talk) 20:44, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Status   Not a bug in AWB, has been referred
Description AWB apparently tries to clean up repeated words, like "of of", even in links to filenames, thus breaking the link to that file. The Caiaphas ossuary article links to an image "File:Ossuary of of the high priest Caiaphas P1180853.JPG", and apparently AWB tries to "fix" the "of of" in the filename, thus causing a redlink where an image should be.

I don't understand what is going on here. AWB was working just fine yesterday on version 5.5.1.2 and now that I updated it, I get this same error message on anything I run. I searched for this bug, and it says it's not a bug, but it is, because everything was working fine yesterday. TombRaiser (talk) 21:49, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

I deleted my AWB folder and started over again. Same result. Hmains (talk) 22:40, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
I'm getting the same error too with the download version. If I compile it myself, it works fine. Bgwhite (talk) 23:16, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

Bgwhite I downloaded 5.0.1.2 and then upgraded and I had no problems. Weird. -- Magioladitis (talk) 23:19, 8 September 2013 (UTC)

I've tried all the suggestions that were mentioned. Still same error. TombRaiser (talk) 00:13, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
So Magioladitis must have a development/test/use environment/platform that is different from us users who can no longer use AWB. Platform now seems to involve specific windows versions, browser versions, security software and local options. Can we get back to a AWB version that works until this is sorted out. Hmains (talk) 00:54, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

I've also started getting the same error as soon as I've upgraded from 5.5.1.2 to 5.5.1.3 using "check for updates" function inside the AWB. The error kept popping on every English Wikipedia page I've tried. cherkash (talk) 00:59, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Put in a new regex private static readonly Regex Anchor2NewlineHeader = new Regex(Tools.NestedTemplateRegex("Anchor").ToString() + "\r\n(\r\n)+==", RegexOptions.Multiline);, include any redirects for anchor. Then in FixHeadings after the HeadingsWhitespaceBefore line, articleText = Anchor2NewlineHeader.Replace(articleText, m => m.Replace("\r\n\r\n==", "\r\n==")); and add appropriate extra unit tests. Rjwilmsi 12:10, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

I have never seen before an anchor before the heading. According to documentation anchor goes inside heading. I have seen it many times exactly after. Rjw's patch works but maybe we need something more here. -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:50, 26 September 2013 (UTC)

Anchors are expected inside header and not before. Anchor before header is a rare case and not an expected one. -- Magioladitis (talk) 07:20, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

@GoingBatty: I like the Beatles but their talk pages are a real pain :) -- Magioladitis (talk) 06:50, 11 October 2013 (UTC)

Problem 1: Image requested will go below WPBS but not every WikiProject.

Problem 2: If there are two templates of the same kind then we are in trouble. Right now we have 6 kinds of templates: Skip to talk, Talk header, WPBS, GANomineeTemplate, TalkWarningTemplates, TalkGuidelineTemplates, TalkHistoryTemplates, ImageRequested. -- Magioladitis (talk) 10:48, 11 October 2013 (UTC)

Maybe use this logic:
  • "ISBN-10 " "ISBN-13 " followed by 10 or more digits/dashes: remove the "-10" or "-13"
  • "ISBN-" followed by 10 or more digits/dashes, remove the "-"
  • "ISBN-10" or "ISBN-13" followed by punctuation or letters - do nothing.
GoingBatty (talk) 20:00, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
There are alot of bad ISBN numbers with less than 10 digits. I've seen quite a few bad ISBNs that start with X, Here is a current list, plus other letters. Old checkwiki program specifically skipped one page when looking for bad ISBNs... International Standard Book Number. Batty's suggestion is the right place to start on if AWB should automatically fixes a problem or not... Batty's logic doesn't take into account cases of ISBN-10=0123456789. However, we should just wait till next month's dump. In October's dump, checkwiki used new logic to find bad ISBNs and cases of ISBN- were cleaned up. Next month, we should have an idea if this is a wide spread or limited problem, plus we can see what false positive cases look like. Bgwhite (talk) 20:38, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

I would be happy to help if these pages all shared the same style more or less. -- Magioladitis (talk) 22:46, 21 October 2013 (UTC)

I've just de-tagged some of these pages again - this is going to get tedious! Most of them use the template Portal:Current events/Month Inclusion to transclude the daily pages - can the AWB code check for that? -- John of Reading (talk) 07:14, 23 October 2013 (UTC)
@John of Reading: rev 9558 for that. Can you please remove the comments now? We are planning to make a proper new release soon. -- Magioladitis (talk) 08:03, 23 October 2013 (UTC)

Currently we remove any of blp=no, blpo=no, activepol=no, collapsed=no. Is it just collapsed to be removed from that list? Rjwilmsi 07:53, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

GoingBatty the correct version in not {{WikiProjectBanners}} with |collapsed=no but just {{WikiProjectBannerShell}}. I think it is a rare case. We had this part of code since the days WikiProjectBanners was only a redirect of WikiProjectBannerShell to be honest. -- Magioladitis (talk) 09:16, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

@Rjwilmsi: this is what should happen:

  • blp=no, blpo=no, activepol=no should be removed from both WikiProjectBanners and WikiProjectBannerShell
  • collapsed=no should be removed from WikiProjectBannerShell
  • collapsed=yes should be removed from WikiProjectBanners

@Josve05a: - Yes, that's an issue. However, please don't save edits that make a page worse. Also, please don't save edits that just change {{WPBS}} to {{WikiProjectBannerShell}}, as some people get cranky when their watchlists are filled with edits that don't change how the page is presented to the reader. Thanks, and happy editing! GoingBatty (talk) 00:42, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Extremely rare. Talkpage header had a single transclusion. Now has none. @Josve05a: if you use the custom module, this won't happen. -- Magioladitis (talk) 09:19, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Don't expect 100% fixes in talk pages anyway. Templates in talk pages are misused. Many pages contain talk header and skip to talk even if there is no discussion at all in the page. Moreover, new redirect are created every day. Talk header has 17(!) redirects. Most recent created 2-3 months ago. -- Magioladitis (talk) 15:07, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

17??? WOW, thst is a lot. Why aren't somebody just changing inside every talk page to the right one and just keep the 5 most used? -(t) Josve05a (c) 15:11, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

@Josve05a: some advice: Please do not to save the page with the bug. Just report it so we can check it too. Check how GoingBatty reports the bugs.

Moreover, a workaround is never "undo the change". The field is more on giving us a suggestion on the programming part or something similar. -- Magioladitis (talk) 18:49, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Excess newline removal does not run if the page has poem tags with blank lines in. So no change will be made for this. Generally I do not consider articles tagged for deletion as valid for minor bug reports about spacing etc. Only major problems would need to be fixed for such pages.
