[[User:DannyS712 bot|DannyS712 bot 11]]

{{Newbot|DannyS712 bot|11}}

Operator: {{botop|DannyS712}}

Time filed: 06:38, Tuesday, March 5, 2019 (UTC)

Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: automatic

Programming language(s): Javascript

Source code available: User:DannyS712 test/PC bot.js

Function overview: Extend Task 3 to userspace drafts namesapce:2 in Polluted categories

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate):

Edit period(s): As needed

Estimated number of pages affected: Not many (~10 per run?), likely more (~1000?) the first time

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): No

Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): Yes

Function details: I'd like to extend Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/DannyS712 bot 3, which allows me to remove categories from userspace and draftspace pages tagged with {{tl|AFC submission}}, to also include userspace drafts that pollute articles' categories. I would manually run it on each category, but within each category it would automatically edit all pages in userspace.

  • {{ping|TheSandDoctor}} {{BotTrialComplete}}. See [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?limit=500&title=Special%3AContributions&contribs=user&target=DannyS712+bot&namespace=2&tagfilter=&start=2019-03-14&end=2019-03-14]. 50 edits made (search for Task 11), and 1 error made at the start because I hadn't anonymized the code properly ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Rmmiller364/Bust_of_Costanza_Bonarelli&diff=prev&oldid=887679988&diffmode=source]). However, I did this trial by running it User:DannyS712 test/PC.js on each category individually. My goal is to run User:DannyS712 test/PC bot.js from the main page, which would then automatically on every category, except AfC ones which I screen for. Would that be okay? (I altered the description to fit what I had intended; if you look at the bot code now, you'll see it log in your console a list of all categories to be run on, and separately, the one-cat code in .../PC is run with an input of a category name, making it easy to link the two). Hope this makes sense. Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 04:31, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
  • :{{ping|TheSandDoctor}} don't know if you saw my post above --DannyS712 (talk) 06:23, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
  • {{ping|DannyS712}} how are you identifying that some ns:2 page is a "userspace draft" vs some other sort of sandbox? — xaosflux Talk 20:29, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
  • :{{ping|Xaosflux}} I'm not differentiating between the two - userspace drafts, or any other userspace pages, should not be categorized with articles as far as I am aware --DannyS712 (talk) 20:33, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
  • ::OK, I updated the description above. — xaosflux Talk 21:48, 20 March 2019 (UTC)

:{{BotApproved}} OK, looks good. Be sure that you only run this in namespace 2 (User:) and that you only remove those 'polluted' article-based cats. — xaosflux Talk 21:57, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
