[Pywikipedia-l] Rewrite branch, issue with user pages in aliased namespace
by Morten Wang 27 Feb '13

27 Feb '13

Hi all, I've run into an interesting issue on Portuguese Wikipedia, with a user page that's in the aliased user namespace: import pywikibot; site = pywikibot.getSite('pt'); page = pywikibot.Page(site, u"Usuário:Vitorvicentevalente"); page.title(); u'Usu\xe1rio(a):Vitorvicentevalente' page.get() [NOTE: callback trace removed for brevity] pywikibot.exceptions.Error: loadrevisions: Query on [[pt:Usuário(a):Vitorvicentevalente]] returned data on 'Usuário:Vitorvicentevalente' According to the API "Usuário" is a valid namespace alias[1]. Is there an easy workaround or fix here? Also, I've noticed this is not an issue in trunk, it's just the rewrite branch that produces this error. Footnotes: 1: ref: http://pt.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=general… Regards, Morten

Re: [Pywikipedia-l] Creating wikidata items
by info＠gno.de 26 Feb '13

26 Feb '13

Hi Amir the point is there may be an existing data item without language link to fa-wiki and a bot is able to create a new repository item for fa-wiki without having any language links (or having it's own link cluster). Before a bot creates a data repository item we must be be sure that a repository item does not already exists. I am unsure whether this is a job for bots. sample: existing item Q1234 with links en:Hello, fr:Bonjour, es:Hola your bot find a new page de:Hallo without language links (or with link to nl:Hoi which has no entry in Q1234 yet). You are wrongly able to create a new data item for de:Hallo via bot. But you first must check that the content of de:Hallo does not match any other content of any other data items's language links (which is in this sample the content of Q1234's language links). So you must not use this code snippet without having care on this matter.

Hello, I am writing a bot to upload svn commited files to my MediaWiki. The authentication is done by LDAP / Active Directory. For humans it works. But with my bot it fails: PHP Warning: ldap_start_tls(): Unable to start TLS: Can't contact LDAP server in /var/www/mediawiki-git/extensions/LdapAuthentication/LdapAuthentication.php on line 576 Where is my error? Thank you very much. Best regards Mario

[Pywikipedia-l] [Pywikipedia-announce] Updated mailing list settings to prevent unsolicited emails (was: "Pywikipedia announcement list, Nicolas left a message (...)"
by Merlijn van Deen 23 Feb '13

23 Feb '13

Hello all, I am terribly sorry for letting this mail slip through. Nicolas was on the 'automatically accept' filters list (together with Maarten (multichill), Siebrand and myself). An app he installed caused spam to be sent to all of his contacts - including this mailing list. I have now removed all four of us from that list, which means any e-mails sent to pywikipedia-announce will have to be explicitly OK'ed in the web interface. This should prevent any unsolicited e-mails in the future. Again, sorry for the inconvenience caused! Best, Merlijn van Deen (valhallasw) _______________________________________________ Pywikipedia-announce mailing list Pywikipedia-announce(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/pywikipedia-announce

[Pywikipedia-l] Translated namespaces can cause edits to the wrong namespace
by Jesse (Pathoschild) 20 Feb '13

20 Feb '13

Hello, Pywikipedia uses its own translations of the canonical namespaces. When these translations are incorrect, the bot will edit the main namespace instead. For example, pywikipedia currently translates the "User" namespace as "Wikipedysta" on pl-wikivoyage, but the correct namespace is "Użytkownik". Is there a way to page.put() with the canonical namespace instead of a translated namespace? -- Yours cordially, Jesse (Pathoschild)

[Pywikipedia-l] Wikidata support = API?
by Jan Dudík 18 Feb '13

18 Feb '13

There is no pywikipedia bot for work with wikidata yet, only 16 days left and most of categories and community pages have no entry in wikidata yet. I am not able to write this bot, but it seems is not difficult read interwikilinks from wikidata using API https://wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=wbgetentities&sites=cswiki&titles=Cha… If nothing more, we can check, if there are all links, as first step it would be useful.
