The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy). If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Collaboration for pluginHi Sam: I'm actually extremely busy now that school has started again (I was on a one-week school break before), so collaboration will be tough. I have a few minutes here and there, and in general I'll be on #autowikibrowser if I'm at home and can spare a few minutes, so if you see me there, then we can talk :-). Another problem is the time zones; most days, I'll be on after 5:00 PM or so my time, which is 10:00 PM your time. But we'll find a way :-) —METS501 (talk) 20:02, 26 February 2007 (UTC) Re: WP India templateHi Reedy Boy, sorry for the delayed reply. Which parameters are you talking about?

Went at it from a different angle this time... I'm building an XML string using my old settings-savings code, and then having AWB serialize that string. For reading, it's just the reverse: AWB sends us a string, which we convert to an XMLReader. Best of all, no other changes are required because we're still using the old way of doing it behind the scenes, and we can add and remove parameters without breaking any objects :) I'll finish off testing it tomorrow and making sure it's robust but basically I'm 99% sure I've cracked it. --kingboyk 00:01, 2 March 2007 (UTC) PS Probably would work without the changes I made to AWB, but those might be handy for somebody if they want to write a serializable class in future and have AWB save that to settings.

Thank you. --Mets501 04:48, 22 February 2007 (UTC) SchoolsI note you have added the article on Bourne Grammar School into WikiProject Schools. A noble objective in theory, but I suspect something of a forlorn hope. You need look no further than the articles about secondary schools in Lincolnshire to see what I mean, quality ranges from adequate to appalling seemingly with little prospect of raising the quality to a consistent and acceptable standard. It really needs big input from the schools: they know themselves best. I contacted BGS to suggest they adopt the article as an IT project for the kids, but they did not take up the suggestion. As I see it, people looking for info about most things do a Google search, and Wikipedia articles always come close to the top of the list, and therefore a good Wikipedia article about a school would be as good as an alternative prospectus and much more accessible. Also, these articles are a popular target for vandalism, bored kids who have nothing better to do in IT lessons - I gather that BGS has severely limited access to Wikipedia from the IT suite. One little problem for you to solve: do you know how to fix Infobox_UKschool so that it lines up with columns left and right as an Infobox should? I suspect it is no more than a line of text missing from the template. There are alternative school infoboxes, but this is the best one for selective secondary schools in the UK, it has all the necessary headings, none missing and no inapplicable extras. :-) Guy 18:24, 3 March 2007 (UTC) IRCMonitorOi Mr, Yet again, you've forgotten to include IRCMonitor with AWB Tsk Shame on you :P -- Reedy Boy 19:21, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Main.cs Line 48 Column 43 AutoWikiBrowser No idea why. Also, what do you think about integrating wikidiff2 into AWB? (See [2]) It's the code that generates the diffs. The only problem is that it's written in c++, not c#. Can we "translate" it with that site you told me about to translate the custom module code? That would allow us to generate the diffs locally, saving time for users when using AWB and saving resources. Then we can even eliminate the quick save option from the bots list. —METS501 (talk) 01:02, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

AWB helpHi. I have just downloaded AWB and am a 'checked-user' so all should be fine, except it keeps crashing for no reason. I'm running XP and although I use firefox, I've logged in through IE. Crashes are either immediate or at any time. I have made some edits with it which have worked fine, then while processing a list, it will 'need to close'. I don't think this is due to the settings as sometimes it won't get that far. Hvae you any ideas? Thanks, –MDCollins (talk) 10:44, 19 March 2007 (UTC) Signpost updated for March 20th, 2007.

If you can have your bot add that template, it will show up on our assessment statistics and in the categories for articles needing to be tagged, and we can move on to assessing the articles. Thanks- --יהושועEric 16:06, 22 March 2007 (UTC) All of the tags are good. If you want to tag the stubs as such, even better. Thanks for the help in tagging everything. --יהושועEric 20:15, 22 March 2007 (UTC) Bad TaggingHi! These articles appear to describe a North American phenomenon; my understanding is that the equivalent in Isreal is called Masorti Judaism, which has a separate article. Given this geographical limitation, are thse articles appropriate for Wikipedia:WikiProject Israel? Best, --Shirahadasha 20:19, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi Reedy. Your bot tagged Beirut as part of WikiProject Israel. Beirut is, of course, the captial of Lebanon, not Israel, so I assume this was just a mistagging. — George Saliba [talk] 20:46, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

You've tagged this article as WikiProject Israel, when the subject has no connection with Israel AFAICT. If you're tagging all Jewish-related articles as such, this is definitely not warranted!

You're good to goWow, that took way, way, way longer than I expected. Anyway, feel free to redo with the new categorization scheme at any time. Best wishes, El_C 20:14, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
There's some quite bad categorisation there. I've gone as deep as I dare with Category:Israeli people by occupation; starting to find some questionable subcats now. Probably I will have some false positives but doing it this way (one by one, or taking care when adding subcats) they're kept to a minimum. --kingboyk 14:00, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
multi pass regex in AWB?Hi ... I'm relatively new to regular expressions and am trying to find, for example, this
and replace, yielding this I've figured out how to do this in 2 passes:
Is a 2 pass regex possible in AWB? Or can you show me how to combine this to one pass? Thanks! Keesiewonder talk 02:14, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Reedy Boy 11:55, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
I'm not sure ASINs should be used anyway. There was a big discussion about using Amazon as a source on one of the admin noticeboards recently. Anyway, writing a module might be best as Sam says, or ask the devs if they can put this feature into AWB (if it was ISBNs it would be a dead cert "yes" but as I say ASINs are a bit more controversial). --kingboyk 12:03, 26 March 2007 (UTC) Also, there's an advanced find/replace feature in AWB somewhere (written by Ligulem if memory serves), which uses regexes and rules. I haven't used it for a long time as I put the regexes I need into my AWB plugin. I'd ask at the AWB talk page as Sam and I are new AWB devs; you'd get a better response from the old hands. --kingboyk 12:03, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
Discussion/updates are continuing a bit on my talk page if you care to follow. Keesiewonder talk 08:30, 27 March 2007 (UTC) AWB.slnI'll ask you this here in case I forget later or am not around. How should the new plugin project, or AWB.sln, be configured to have the plugin get compiled and added to the AWB bin\Debug folder when running AWB in debug mode? The other binaries seem to get debug-compiled to that folder but not the new plugin. On a similar note, maybe we could set up a mirror AWB.sln in the kingbotk plugin folder, and add the kingbotk plugin project to that solution for easier debugging. Currently I "run" the plugin in debug mode and copy the created DLLs to the AWB bin\debug folder, then run AWB in debug mode. There has to be an easier way. --kingboyk 15:23, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

DadaDo you really think the "Origin of the word Dada" section is properly placed in the DADA article? Ridernyc 20:41, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Still you undid my revision, waiting for you to explain why? "Origin of the word Dada", really belongs in the middle of history between Zürich and Berlin? Ridernyc 20:46, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
You revised my work as I was editing, However I would also argue that the ways Dada is described section is in no way helpful to understanding Dada and in fact should be removed. The pertanant quotes from Tristan Tzaraare already included other places in the article. The quote as it is with no other context is way to long and confusing. The second quote says tells a reader nothing in the context it is in. This is a major problem with Wikipedia right now people add things but if someone removes something to make thearticle have a better flow and be easier to understand it's considered vandalism.

Oh, great start, kiddiewinks. You begin by abusing your power and deleting an article which not only clearly asserted its significance but was also tagged as important to the LGBT WikiProject. Rubywine 00:06, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Deletion of BoredestI just wanted to let you know that WP:CSD#G4 does not apply for articles previously deleted by prod or speedy deletion. It only applies to articles deleted through an XfD, provided that the content of the recreated article is near-identical to the version previously deleted.

How is Template:South Asian television channels patent nonsense?I'm very confused as to why this template was deleted as patent nonsense? There was absolutely nothing about this template that was "nonsense". The last time I viewed it, it was a legitimate, organized, and useful template. It may need some improvement, but it was far from anything I would consider nonsense. It is it possible to restore the template? If for any reason, it is unnecessary, it can be taken to WP:TFD but to speedily delete it under criteria that it does not fit in any way does not make sense to me. --musicpvm 03:44, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for restoring the template. I wasn't aware that the user who created it had requested its deletion. Despite that, I have found it useful and think it can be improved. I have commented at the TFD. I was just confused because I had used it to browse articles a few days earlier and suddenly it had been speedily deleted with a deletion summary that didn't seem to be applicable. Thanks again for restoring though. --musicpvm 05:57, 7 June 2007 (UTC) Signpost updated for June 4th, 2007.

What was patent nonsense about Rexella Stupid Art Collective?YOU DELETED ME!!!! I WASN'T FINISHED. THE GROUP IS REAL,I wasn't finished with that article, in fact I had just begun and was in the process of researching more material. Besides CSD G1 clearly says this 1. Patent nonsense and gibberish, an unsalvageably incoherent page with no meaningful content. This does not include: poor writing, partisan screeds, obscene remarks, vandalism, fictional material, material not in English, badly translated material, implausible theories, or hoaxes. This is a real group, and have been active for 7.5 years. They are a Youth subculture-art movement located in Portland, Oregon, USA. Stupid art is a small art movement they are involved with, in it are elements of absurdest performance art, abstractionist visual art, and surrealist music(think like no-wave, noise rock/punk, and elements of early industrial). The Rexella Stupid Art Collective has played several shows around the NW USA, and has had 4 art showings in Portland, they have also been the subject of a Youth Subculture group study at Portland State University for their Sociology department. You can find them on the web at www.rexella.org I demand my article back so that I may finish it. What was stated in the intro can be changed( though this is their offical bio and they have never deviated from it), I would rather have proper coaching than have my article deleted, and if your response to that is "it is clearly stated here in rule XXX", well sorry I don't have the time and money to sit at a computer all day and live Wikipedia. Thank you, Evan 6/10/2007 4:00 PDT

I was thinking of trying to make something to convert all the old airport infoboxes to the new one {{Infobox Airport}}.

Non-North American airportsJust wanted to let you know that for some strage reason (I suspect that it's listed in ICAO somplace) but nearly all non-North American airports have the elevation in feet. If you go to Wikipedia:WikiProject Airports#Aeronautical Information Publications (AIP) you can then go to the UK AIS or EuroControl and look at the aerodrome charts. Both sites require registration but it's free and in over a year other than the original email I have received nothing from them. By the way I was able to do all the Canadian airports (1000+) using AWB. I used a combination of regex and search and replace, it's faster than by hand but very easy to make errors.

AWB and Kingbotk PluginI have been using it constantly for a couple of days now and can find no errors in it at all. However now I have said that I probably will as soon as finishing this entry. Great work. All I would say is that the new logging approach needs to be clearly documented and announced. I didn't get it to start with but now is working fine. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 10:33, 25 July 2007 (UTC) Airport plug-inWhere can I download the plugin? Thanks. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 04:41, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
I noticed some minor stuff and a major one. Minor first, in the old infobox the town served was automatically linked, the new one doesn't do that and it must be done manually. I noticed that with Adisucipto International Airport the "coor dm" didn't update but I suspect that's because it was looking for "coor dms". Now here is what looks like the major problem. Check the operator, city-served, elevation-f and elevation-m. I noticed it on some but as yet I'm not sure how many. CambridgeBayWeather (Talk) 04:04, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
So, as you 2 have discussed, the plugin should not automatically wikilink anything, the user can/should do that. The coor dm not going to coord, is precisely that reason, it is looking for coor dms, i can add coor dm to the list of changes. The idea of the plugin wasnt to do absolutely do everything automatically, just speeden up the migration process. Some of those edits i think, are with 'old' versions of the plugin, where i have fixed and updated stuff later. I shall do some more edits today, and see what problems arise there.
I have done about 20 more edits, if you wouldnt mind checking over them for any errors/bugs? Reedy Boy 09:50, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

AWB bug or settings file?Hi, I saw your comment re the relisted AWB bug I found:
I'm definitely still having problems, the "Add all to watchlist" option is unchecked but everything goes onto my watchlist, I have to remove them all manually. I was wondering what you meant by "an old settings file" - if you can suggest what I should try to do at my end, then that'd be helpful, if we find something that works then one of us can add a follow-on comment to the bug report. I'm happy to perform any testing that would be helpful in resolving this (having worked as a programmer in the past, I know something of the joys of testing - but I'm too rusty to try delving into the AWB code myself). In case it makes a difference:

Another note - I noticed that the city normally goes to the city-served param. It was my understanding that location is to be used by default and that city-served be used only if the city served is different then the location. Would you be able to switch it? Unless you have different thoughts on it. Also - can it add [[ ]] to the city as well? Other small notes, if possible, make the first instance of Asphalt and Concrete wikilinked. And even better, de-wikilink later instances. If any of this can't be done, that's fine. Just wondering.

I think that the focus should be wherever the user sets it i.e. the user may set the focus to the category box, find box, edit box etc. while a page / pages are loading and after a page loads the focus should be where the user left it. If that's too difficult to implement, then the Save button would be a good place to focus I think, or maybe the top of the edit box if the edit box is currently displayed (rather than one of the log options).

By clicking around on the article "Anthony Gilbert," I found your name. You must have done something to process the article about Gilbert. Perhaps you can help in this respect: the article mentions that the author who wrote under that name published 69 crime novels, 51 of which featured Mr. Crook. When I read the item, I wished the author had listed the novels by title--is there some way to communicate with the contributor, suggesting he/she add this list info? She/he might well have a list of the novels--even a partial one--if he/she has knowledge of the total number. // Sorry for asking what must be a truly off-topic question.

StatusBotAbout a week ago, I added the StatusBot category to a few userpages of members of BAG, for the purpose of adding the {{ustatus}} template to the list on WP:BAG. Some users have disagreed with this, so I am going through the user talk pages of people I added the category to. Would you mind keeping the category, or would you prefer it to be removed? If you want it removed, you may delete your subpage of User:StatusBot/Status, in this case, User:StatusBot/Status/Reedy Boy, and remove the category from your userpage.

So now I have to go through all 351 Massachusetts town infoboxes and update the 'Location of XXX in Massachusetts' text to 'Location of XXX in YYY County in Massachusetts.' I'd rather not have to do that all by hand. :) My next project is to upload similar maps for Connecticut towns, which will involve 169 nearly-identical links to the recently uploaded Commons file.

Re: Database Scanner shows progressHi, your comment on my feature request confuses me. I'm certain that you are an able programmer.

Ralbot 03:37, 18 September 2007 (UTC) The user might well have been informed, but the user in question also let the bot edit way past the 50-edit limit he commited himself to, created a bot that didn't do what he said it would (the bot was authorised to warn uploaders that had omitted or poorly formatted information when uploading images, not to tag these images for speedy deletion) and ignored the huge negative feedback. Until this situation is cleared up, and the various responsibilites assesed, I think it might be better to leave this bot blocked for the moment, especially since the user has not made any request or given any explanation yet. It would also be nice to consult the blocking admin before undoing a block, especially for an account that has basically deleted hundreds of images without permission.

Coastergeekperson04 00:21, 21 September 2007 (UTC) Advice on plagiarism?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketchikan_International_Airport appears to have much of the history of the airport plagiarised from the airport's website ( http://www.borough.ketchikan.ak.us/airport/airport_history.htm ). Some people may assert that it is free use because it is a government website. What do you think is the correct thing to do? As a temporary measure, I put the plagiarised text as a block quote and added a citation. If free use is permitted, this is sufficient. A permanent solution may be to re-write it. WP policy seems to say that plagerised material should be deleted (if it is not free use). What is your advice? Archtransit 17:55, 22 September 2007 (UTC) Thanks for your advice. I have finished the revisions. This type of work is simply my effort to improve the wikipedia project, a sort of house cleaning. I think that if one doesn't want to write, it's acceptable simply to read articles. One doesn't have resort to stealing text from other websites. Some days, I just read WP and add little or nothing.

new article ideaI saw this article [8] which says
This could be a new start of a potential new article about air transport in Singapore and include how they were denied rights between Australia and the US. Another idea would be to use the above block quoted article as a reference to an article about UK routes, incorporating ideas from the Bermuda II agreement covering US and UK routes. The Singapore angle would be easier since Singapore dates from about 1965 while UK aviation history is much longer. The quoted agreement is not mentioned in any article relating to Singapore. It also doesn't fit well with the articles currently in WP. Archtransit 15:52, 3 October 2007 (UTC) Too much time on my hands? No, it's too lofty goals! Either of the 2 proposed articles would take too much time to write. My recent contributions have been only a few minor ones per day (usually one fact not noted in an article). I learned my lesson from choosing a difficult article to write. Some articles are much easier to write, like those of defunct airlines. The history of open skies in Singapore would be a very time consuming article to write because of each sentence of the article would come from a different citation and there is no one citation that covers the topic. Perhaps I'll find time to write the difficult articles in 2008! Archtransit 19:13, 3 October 2007 (UTC) Success in finding rare fact about Boeing 737!I knew that the 737-300 was once marketed as a business jet version, the 77-33. I found a citation for it! A significant number of my edits are some unusual fact that most general review articles don't include. I then search for a citation to document the fact. I hope that's adding value to wikipedia. If one reads an easy to locate review article and then re-phrases it for wikipedia, that builds wikipedia but doesn't add anything to the mankind's knowledge base. If I'm not stupid enough, I hope to recall unusual facts then insert it into wikipedia, an easy to locate reference for mankind.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Howdenjuniors.gif)Thanks for uploading Image:Howdenjuniors.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media). If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Chico75 13:52, 21 October 2007 (UTC) Suggestion for Reedy Bot's use in positioning DEFAULTSORTDue to a technical peculiarity in its programming, DEFAULTSORT is unable to perform its alphabetizing function within discussion page categories unless it is entered below the WikiProject tags/Wikitags. If placed above the tags, DEFAULTSORT is completely ineffective. While adding tags to discussion pages, Reedy Bot has been recently repositioning DEFAULTSORT to the top of those pages and, as a result, negating DEFAULTSORT's function. I have restored DEFAULTSORT to its original position on some of the pages, but hope that you can help by canceling that part of Reedy Bot's instructions. —Roman Spinner (talk) 06:25, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
Request concerning NewPage WatcherI use NewPage watcher and I thought to myself that a great improvement for the program could be the ability to type in the articles that you want to access and load them that way as well, so that it's not only a newpage watcher, it can also be used to tag articles that aren't quite new but nonetheless need tags. I have noticed that NPW is a great tool for tagging articles for various reasons new or not new. I would also like to suggest a few new buttons for new tags be added as well. Perhaps a "POV" tag. I wanted some input on this. I also noticed that when I load NPW, prior to looging in I can see "Images" and "Prod" tabs. What are these for and why do they disappear after I log in?

You can find out how many 737's were built between 1975 and 1980 or how many delivered so far. Say I wanted to find out who ordered the most 737's. By looking it up by that search feature, is that original research? Or just referenced information that isn't in paragraph form? http://active.boeing.com/commercial/orders/index.cfm?content=userdefinedselection.cfm&pageid=m15527 As you probably know, WP wants referenced facts, not original research and editor's own theories.

So could you allow me to restart the page which was deleted? Thanks. Atabek (talk) 16:57, 27 December 2007 (UTC) |
