[Pywikipedia-l] Infinite loop in login.py

[I am resending this, since I wasn't subscribed when I first sent it and it hasn't yet appeared in the archives after over an hour since sending.

Of course it isn't a serious loss for the team. I don't know what you wanted fix here (maybe the problem was recently added 'ar' row in dictionary only), but this commit is wrong. This function should skip all the sections listed in the dictionary, without language based distintion. Yes, I know, this source is badly written and need a rewrite, as well as a bad example for commit messages quality and so on, but sometime something are made in a way for a reason.

[Pywikipedia-l] Can has pywikipediabot code review? Yes!
by Siebrand Mazeland 10 Jun '10

10 Jun '10

Pywikipediabot now has code review in the same way as MediaWiki[1]. Tim has implemented this a few hours ago. Thanks Tim! Below you can find a description of the new functionality. I hope we can discuss whatever you may see differently or whatever I may have left out. Please mind the following if you wish to participate in the code review: * anyone can use the tool in a read-only mode (right: codereview-use) * registered users can submit comments on revisions (right: codereview-post-comment) * coders can link committers to mediawiki.org user accounts. All committers should have an account on mediawiki.org with a confirmed e-mail address and linked their user to their committer identity[2]. This allows you to get e-mails on your revs and follow-up revs. (right: codereview-link-user, role: coder) * coders can add and remove tags for revisions in the review module. For MediaWiki this feature isn't used that much, but it can be used to group revisions (rights: codereview-add-tag, codereview-remove-tag, role: coder) * coders can change the status of revisions (right: codereview-set-status, role coder). Possible states are: ** new: default state ** fixme: something needs to be done for this revision is broken - the original committer should feel responsible for doing this ** reverted: this revision has been reverted ** resolved: this revision was marked fixme, but the issue has been resolved in a later revision ** ok: this revision has been reviewed by a coder able to assess the revision and no issues have been found ** verified: uncertain, as not used in MediaWiki code review. I propose not to use this tag until we need it for whatever * coders can add new coders[3] (role: coder). This is supposed to be a web of trust. Only change state to ok for revisions that you really understand, and keep comments to the point. If you have the coder role, you can do code review also on MediaWiki; please only stick to the project you develop on with regards to code review functionality. If you make follow-up revisions, please mention to which revision (with r#####) you are following up to in your commit summary. This will automatically link the new revision in the code review page of the followed-up revision.

[Pywikipedia-l] Bots editing while logged out
by Mike.lifeguard 31 May '10

31 May '10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello all, There is a discussion on enwiki [1] which concerns bots editing while logged out. The proposal is to block the toolserver IP range to prevent this from happening -- however, this shouldn't be necessary since bots should never edit while logged out. Bot frameworks should help bot operators and authors by using an edit assertion [2] - is anyone aware of a framework which /doesn't/ do that? So, this is a reminder to please take care when writing scripts: check if your framework handles this for you, and if not, be sure to write your bot such that it edits only while logged in. If the toolserver IP range does end up being blocked, is anyone aware of read-only tools which would be adversely affected by the IP being blocked? Such tools are poorly designed, and their authors should fix them sooner rather than later, even if the block isn't placed in the end. - -Mike [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/?oldid=364741979#Proposal_to_softblock_Toolserver_I… [2] http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Assert_Edit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkwDPWUACgkQst0AR/DaKHtTlACfW8XWbH/Pi1Yh1ExkaHVhabLa +y0AnRBSsHt7QYcWbUcPu4rANySCkFO2 =989j -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

[Pywikipedia-l] A family problem :)
by Thibaut Le Page 29 May '10

29 May '10

Hello! I would like to use Pywikipedia to build a bot on the French wiki called Vikidia (an encyclopedia for children, naturally based on Mediawiki). Because the file vikidia_family.py did not exist, I made it (according to the model on meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Pywikipediabot/Use_on_non-WMF_wikis). Nevertheless, when I now run (for example) replace.py, at first everything seems good, but then I obtain a "missingtitle" error, which I do not understand and which forbids me to use the script. Once, executing another pywikipedia script (which had to create the the bot's user sub-page called "test" and write "test" inside), I created in reality a page called "Api.php", in the main spacename! :) That is why I think that my file vikidia_family.py (hand-made) is bad, but I do not know where. Is anybody there who could help me, with an information or a piece of advice, for example? Thank you very much! thilp

Re: [Pywikipedia-l] Bot run on the Icelandic Wikipedia
by info＠gno.de 28 May '10

28 May '10

I've done a fix on interwiki bot which work as described by my proposal on my talk page at de-wiki. In this modification interwiki edits are allowed in following cases: - if there are no interwiki links at all on the page - if an interwiki link must be removed - if there are more than one interwiki link to change or add - if the last edit was made by human - if the last edit was made 1 month ago This is a bit similar to the -whenneeded option. I could change the svn with this patch but I reluctantly wouldn't without any concessions by the icelandic crats. Any comments?
