Request for a script
by Klemen Kocjancic 29 Aug '11

29 Aug '11

Hi! I'm turning to you with request. Is it possible for you to make python script, which would make compitation of articles (from :sl - Slovenian WP): a) created by me (Username: Klemen Kocjancic) and b) linked to http://sl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Vojaštvo<http://sl.wikipedia.org/wiki/> The script should combined both search quiries (with removing duplicated articles) and make a list of articles in following form: yyyy xxxx '''X'''Y yyyy xxxx '''X'''Y yyyy xxxx X = article's title Y = article's text Is this possible? Could you recommend someone, if you can't make it? Because I'm using pyton (and AWB) for adding/maintence, I'm requesting script in this language, but if any can write script in any other language, is also fine with me. Regards, Klemen Kocjancic admin, :sl WP -- Klemen Kocjančič Litostrojska 7 1000 Ljubljana +386-31-352-161

No permission to send mail...
by Dr. Trigon 28 Aug '11

28 Aug '11

Hello all! I am searching desperately for a solution to following problem. DrTrigonBot is written such that in case of an (not severe) error the bot should send an email with a notification to me. BUT the strange thing I do not understand is; userlib.py is not able to send emails about 50% of the tries... Some info can be found in (at the very end): http://toolserver.org/~drtrigon/DrTrigonBot/20110724.log The error raised is 'UserActionRefuse("You don't have permission to send mail",)' Does anyone have an idea how to solve this? In my view this is triggered by "if not self.site().isAllowed('sendemail'):" in "userlib.sendMail" but WHY is this 'sendemail' flags sometimes true and sometimes false...?!? Thanks a lot for your help and time Greetings to all! DrTrigon

Have you seen http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/Translate/data/p… , which lists the plural possibilities for each language. Unfortunately, python does not support the a ? b : c notation, so it's not possible to copy the code 1-on-1. Alternatively, there is http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/Translate/data/p… , but that is fairly unreadable IMO. Good luck! Best, Merlijn

Expressions in Cosmetic changes
by Jan Dudík 19 Aug '11

19 Aug '11

in my cosmetic_changes.py I have following lines: text = pywikibot.replaceExcept(text, u' m. n. m.', u' m n. m.', ['comment', 'math', 'nowiki', 'pre']) text = pywikibot.replaceExcept(text, u' viz.', u' viz', ['comment', 'math', 'nowiki', 'pre']) I think, that r in the beginning means regular expression, but u means simple text. But bot takes dot like any character, so i got e.g. revize ->reviz má na mále -> m na mále http://cs.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ferrari_FF&action=historysubmit&d… How to channge it to correct output?
