The following is a list of user scripts, programs, and bots used in the regular maintenance and updating of DYK. These scripts and bots assist with creating, reviewing, and moving DYK nominations, as well as updating the Main Page and other important tasks.
Already has a bot flag (Y/N): No Function Details: I do a fair amount of template coding, and quite often templates are placed on pages in order to categorise them. When the template is edited, it can take a long time for the pages to change category: depending on the size of the job queue it has been known to take up to two months for every ...
A free open source tool to convert from CSV and Excel files to wiki table format: csv2other; Spreadsheet-to-MediaWiki-table-Converter This class constructs a MediaWiki-format table from an Excel/GoogleDoc copy & paste. It provides a variety of methods to modify the style. It defaults to a Wikipedia styling with first column header. [2]
The guideline is stable and has existed in various forms for a long time. The three bot approvals resulted in thousands of edits over a long period. Here is a sample of 5,000 bot edits relating to the common units 'mile' and 'km'. Please can we move to a 50 edit trial? Lightmouse 17:19, 13 March 2011 (UTC) OK, how about a 20 edit trial then?
The bot isn't equipped to make these decisions; so it shouldn't make 'em. It more-oftens-than-not introduces inconsistencies in how citations are presented. Again, not related to this task, but it should be fixed. If it keeps doing this, I'll stop the bot. Headbomb {ταλκ κοντριβς – WP Physics} 15:09, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
The bot does not edit. Notes: The code has been completely rewritten, migrating from Python 2 to Python 3.11 and from the XML-RPC-based API that EranBot uses to the new Turnitin Core API (TCA). CopyPatrol is also being migrated from Toolforge tools (EranBot is running on the deprecated Grid Engine.) and database to WMCS Cloud VPS instances.
This bot is not exclusion compliant because (a) the bot performs a simple, reliable task that only adds to the page content, and does not modify any existing content; and (b) the bot will most likely not operate in userspace (the place for which the exclusion system is intended).
Per WP:BOTREQUIRE, the editing speed of bots must be regulated in some way; subject to approval, bots doing non-urgent tasks may edit approximately once every ten seconds, while bots doing more urgent tasks may edit approximately once every five seconds. Similar constraints should also be considered for semi-automatic or supervised manual mass ...
