[Pywikipedia-l] Urlencoded section titles
by Bináris 13 Sep '18

13 Sep '18

Happy Monday, There are strange people who make such links (kindof urlencoded?): [[Második világháború#Partrasz.C3.A1ll.C3.A1s Szic.C3.ADli.C3.A1ban .28Huskey hadm.C5.B1velet.29|Huskey hadműveletben]] So the section title must have been copied from the URL. Do we have a ready tool to fix these? -- Bináris

[Pywikipedia-l] Template parsing code
by Hannes Röst 02 Sep '16

02 Sep '16

Hello all >From one of my assignments as a bot operator I have some code which does template parsing and general text parsing (e.g. Image/File tags). It is not using regex and thus able to correctly parse nested templates and other such nasty things. I have written those as library classes and written tests for them which cover almost all of the code. I would now really like to contribute that code back to the community. Would you be interested in adding this code to the pywikibot framework? If yes, can I send the code to someone for code review or how do you usually operate? Greetings Hannes PS: wiki userpage is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Hannes_R%C3%B6st

[Pywikipedia-l] python styling (pep8/pyflakes)
by Antoine Musso 04 Nov '13

04 Nov '13

Hello there! At first, I am really happy to see the pywikipedia framework is still alive and very active. As you may have noticed, whenever a change is send to Gerrit that triggers Jenkins jobs that run the code style utilities pep8 and pyflakes. It seems your code is not passing the style checks so whenever they fail it is not going to prevent you from merging the code. I am not sure how your community likes pep8/pyflakes. But I think it would be nice to have the code repositories to pass those tests and enforce authors to follow them. You can still have some pep8 checks ignored such as the "line too long". The questions are: Is there any interest in making your repositories pep8 compliants? If so, is there anything I can do to help? :-] -- Antoine "hashar" Musso

This bug needs your attention: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52692 We have to discuss on components I suggest to add "Wikidata" components to the list. I suggest we remove some very old components too. Please discuss in http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikipediabot/Migrating_to_bugzilla -- Amir

[Pywikipedia-l] Missing namespaces in Wikisource family?
by Mpaa 10 Sep '13

10 Sep '13

Hi. I pulled from git the compat version and I got these errors when trying to get pages from en, wikisource. Getting [[Category:Author pages linking to Wikipedia]] list... Getting 125 pages from wikisource:en... WARNING: Missing namespace in family file wikisource: namespace['en'][114] (it is set to 'Translation') WARNING: Missing namespace in family file wikisource: namespace['en'][115] (it is set to 'Translation talk') I guess these namespaces need to be added to wikisource_family.py BTW, I operate MpaaBot on en:WS based on pywikipediabot. I have some python knowledge (but I'm not a professional developer) and would be nice to contribute to this project in my spare time. Any advice on where/how one could help? If I am welcome, you could list areas where you need help, and I could pick what is more suitable for my knowledge level and interest. Bye Mpaa

[Pywikipedia-l] Switch to HTTPS, implications for Pywikibot?
by Morten Wang 03 Sep '13

03 Sep '13

I noticed this message from a thread on wikitech-l and wikibots-l: http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikibots-l/2013-August/000353.html Does this have any particular implications for pywikibot, or is it already using HTTPS? Cheers, Morten

[Pywikipedia-l] Name of the project
by Amir Ladsgroup 03 Sep '13

03 Sep '13

Hi, Name of this project is really confusing. sometimes we use pywikipedia, sometimes pywikibot, and sometimes more strange names like PyWikipediaBot: I think we have to move this page and all of the subpages to Pywikibot. As we used this name in the Git repository, new mailing lists, and so many other places https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/PWB What do you think? Is there any objection or suggestion? Best -- Amir

[Pywikipedia-l] Cruft in compat
by John 01 Sep '13

01 Sep '13

Ive been slowly getting more and more irritated by drtrigon's additions to the code. The final straw was when I just converted to Git and discovered that he is trying to run executables. This is bloatware plain and simple I have seen the number of externals go from 2 to 17. Most of these are probably for one or two pet programs that should never have been added to the project as they are niche programs. I would really like to see things streamlined and all of the cruft removed and get back to the nice library that we had.
