pywikipediabot interwiki.py should not move content after interwiki links below it
by Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 26 Oct '05

26 Oct '05

At the Icelandic Wikipedia we put <noinclude> after the first paragraph of an article and </noinclude> at the very end of it so that we can put {{:Article}} at the articles top category to get a summary of the topic, however interwiki.py converts something like: " [[en:Topic]] </noinclude> " into " </noinclude> [[fr:Topico]] [[en:Topic]] ... " which means that the interwikis get transcluded to the category page, is there a way to make the bot place the added interwiki links where it found the first one instead of putting them all at the bottom?

bots and proxy
by Koen Huybrechts 21 Oct '05

hi, I'm using the wikibots regulary, but sometimes I am behind a proxy-server, and then the bot won't work... Is there a way to get it working also behind the proxy?? Is this function already implemented? koko

Bot API für MediaWiki
by Daniel Kinzler 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

Hi all I'm currently working on several small enhancements that will hopefully make things easier for bots. I would like to point you to <http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/REST>, where I have put up a proposal for a lightweight bot interface, relying mainly on CSV. Also, ther's now a keyword for bot-related bugs and requests on bugzilla: "bot-interface". To see a list of bugs currently marked with this keyword, see <http://tinyurl.com/9hb3m>. If you know of more, please add this keyword to them. Regards, Daniel -- Homepage: http://brightbyte.de

Are bots blocked on http://en.wikisource.org/ ?

Deletion bug (fixed)
by Jason Y. Lee 12 Oct '05

12 Oct '05

I have found that the deletion function has a bug. Apparently the tokens it uses for the page do not match the deletion token for the page, which seems to be different... I don't know if it is different for each page it deletes, but I developed somewhat of a hacked solution. If anyone wants to attempt to beautify it or create a better solution, be my guest. I have attached it to this email and also uploaded it to sourceforge. -- Jason Y. Lee AKA AllyUnion
