Message of Thanks and request to give some advice

I recieved the message from bot, thanks for warning me about it. But actually to tell you the truth, I was the new user here on Wikipedia. Please can you give me a sample on how to contribute properly here on this site? Thanks Shanayujilover (talk) 10:44, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

about adding Wikimedia images to files and articles

Dear Tim1357, I received a message from a user:Bot and try to respond to that. Thank you for welcoming me to Wikipedia, yes I am quite new and learning how to edit and improve articles. The Bot {Robot}? sent me a polite warning that if I didn't use the File:10 newspaper article-reverse-complete.jpg within an article it would be selected for deletion by 24th august. In my defence I can only say that when I started using it, Wikimedia and uploading files to it seemed quite hard and difficult for newbies like me who do not know computer programming. Additionally I am not sitting at my computer all day tapping away, I do go to work and am busy. Never do anything private in work time. So, I did want to join the File to an article I was writing about my grandfather, Professor Dobrev but found the Bulgarian Wikipedia is entirely different sphere and another world and gave up, do Istill have time to do it and can you help me please???? thanks very much, Snejana--Dobrevasnejana 23:33, 17 August 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dobrevasnejana (talk • contribs)

DASHBot Errors

Hi. With these edits, your bot neglected to notice the {{PD-textlogo}} failsafe tag and violated WP:DTTR.   — Jeff G.  ツ 14:43, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

wikiproject_watchlist.py

Tim, does this tool exclude categories? If so why and if not then there is some bug. Checking http://toolserver.org/~tim1357/cgi-bin/wikiproject_watchlist.py?template=WikiProject%20Turtles does not show for example here, here and here. By the way as I've said before it would be brillant if this tool included talk pages. Regards, SunCreator ^(talk) 13:10, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

Dashbot Image resize hiccup

I've noticed that Dashbot's upload log [1] is hitting only a few files a day recently, even though Category:Non-free Wikipedia file size reduction request has over 600 reduction requests. Skier Dude (talk) 05:45, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

• I came here for the same reason. It's over 700 now. Should I start doing manual resizings again? I dislike doing them, but I will if the bot is broken again. Sven Manguard Wha? 09:05, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Also, the bot is no longer putting in the {{non-free reduced}} template when it is done. See this file history for one of the many examples I've come across. Sven Manguard Wha? 08:57, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
    • Someone, in what I can only (civilly) describe as a major lapse in judgement, used the shutoff switch for the bot in order to prevent it from working on a specific file. I have undone that lapse in judgement, issued some harsh but measured words to the person that used the shutoff switch so callously, and the bot is now running smoothly again. I've also watchlisted the shutoff switch, so if this happens again, I'll remember to look there first. Sven Manguard Wha? 13:52, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

Fair Use of Doorways in the Sand Japan cover art.jpg

Tim,

This is the Wikipedia statement on the fair use of book cover art:

This image is of book cover(s), and the copyright for it is most likely owned either by the artist who created the cover(s) or the publisher of the book(s). It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of book covers · to illustrate an article discussing the book in question· on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.

So what form do I have to fill out to use this graphic and where is it? Rhennius (talk) 23:24, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

WebCiting the RadioTimes

Hi there. I noticed at WP:BRFA that you want to add WebCiting to DASHBot. First of all, great idea. Hope it gets approved, WebCiteBOT is dearly missed. Since you have the code for doing such WebCites automatically, do you think I could bother you the request for a manual run? The old Radio Times website changed its links from "www." to "old." but will go offline soon and many Doctor Who related articles have refs sourced to it (see Wikipedia talk:WHO#Radio Times website). Glimmer721 (talk · contribs) tried doing some manually but according to her notification at my talk page (User talk:SoWhy#Uh-Oh...) those seem to have failed. Do you think you could let the WebCite-code run through pages in Category:Doctor Who and augment those refs with the relevant archive-parameter? Regards SoWhy 18:25, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Error with Indian Trail HS Logo file...

I recently uploaded a logo for Indian Trail High School and Academy to replace the old Indian Trail Academy logo, and placed it in the infobox -- and your bot told me it was orphaned. I tried turning it off, but that page is full-protected and I can't edit it. Can you help? Black Yoshi (Yoshi! | Yoshi's Eggs) 00:31, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Error with DASHbot flagging image as orphaned.

Hello. Over two years ago I uploaded [[file:Tecumseh high school ohio logo.gif]] as the logo for Tecumseh High School (New Carlisle, Ohio). You can see in the file's 'File Links' section of the file's page that the above-named article is listed.

Now, as I said two years later, I receive this message:User talk:EricCable#Orphaned_non-free_image_File:Tecumseh_high_school_ohio_logo.gif.

I notice that there is a similar message on your talk page above, so I think maybe it's an error in your bot. If not, let me know what I should change to ensure your bot does not delete my work. Thanks.  Eric Cable  |  Talk  12:59, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

I noticed the same problem. The reason for the problem is that the code for Template:Infobox school was being cleaned up, and the conditional coding for images using underscores instead of just spaces was removed. And since the image no longer displayed correctly, the bot was going through and tagging non-free images used in the infobox as no longer used in an article. The coding has since been restored and images should now display in the article infoboxes correctly. If the bot could be run to remove the deletion templates it placed on the schools articles on September 6, that would be helpful. Rreagan007 (talk) 17:55, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

Error with unreferenced footballer BLPs

Hi there, DASHbot looks to have made a boo-boo with this edit - adding a number of highly referenced articles (some with 30ish references!) to a list of unreferenced articles. Just thought I'd let you know. Cheers, GiantSnowman 19:52, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

No, Dashbot didn't do anything wrong, a change was made to {{BLP unsourced section}} - see the template's talk page for a bit of the discussion - that added 1000 "referenced except for one section" articles to the unreferenced BLP pile. It has since been reverted. The-Pope (talk) 22:56, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

"File:Powers of Ten FilmPoster.jpeg" was mislabeled. The image depicted is the poster art for Cosmic Voyage.

Logo used in AASHTO article

Good morning. I am the Information Resource Manager for the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO). I need to bring to your attention the fact that the logo currently appearing in the article about the association (http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/File:Logo-aashto.png) is out of date. It was superseded approximately six years ago by the logo posted on the upper left side of the AASHTO website's homepage (http://transportation.org/). The need to remove the outdated AASHTO logo and replace it with the new logo has been reinforced by such news items as the one appearing just last week on the Tennessee-based Business & Heritage Clarksville website (see http://businessclarksville.com/2011/09/14/aashto-to-president-obama-states-dots-are-ready-to-work-now-32650/). Please let me know if would like me to provide you with an image of the current AASHTO logo for inclusion in that article. I am new to the world of Wikipedia, and also mindful that I need to tread carefully in this particular matter since it does involve my longtime employer, so I would strongly and sincerely appreciate any guidance you can offer. Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I await your reply. Mbcullen (talk) 14:28, 19 September 2011 (UTC) Robert Cullen, AASHTO (Mbcullen)

Hi Tim, the overwhelming consensus at the albums project is that Dashbot has been doing a spectacular job with the ratings migration, and that we should have one final run to take care of all the remaining 52,000 24,000 articles (in short, once and for all). The only change that would need to be made is what Muhandes brought up about removing parentheses surrounding {{rating}}, like in this diff. I hope this is simple, my uneducated guess would be to look for {{rating|xx}} or ({{rating|xx}}), instead of just {{rating|xx}}. So what on your thoughts on getting this finished? —Akrabbim^talk 01:29, 11 September 2011 (UTC)

Also, you are only running this in the article space correct? —Akrabbim^talk 01:52, 11 September 2011 (UTC)

Actually we started with 52,000 articles but "only" 24,000 are left. I think the last time it ran, the bot was not adding References sections to articles that didn't have them, but I'm guessing that it could do that without a huge amount of difficulty. See this post for some additional thoughts on that. — Mudwater ^(Talk) 03:53, 11 September 2011 (UTC)

Respect Template:Should be PNG?

When resizing files, could you also convert to PNG if that template is present? The reason I ask this is that, often, the size reduction means that the PNG will have to be even smaller still, in order to properly deal with JPEG artifacts. Doing it all in one move will make it better.

And if the image needs to have its background removed, that can be done after the fact. Thoughts? — trlkly 20:19, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

Bot's aren't supposed to convert to PNG, because it requires a human eye for judging quality. For now, I'll have the bot ignore all jpegs. Thanks! Tim1357 ^talk 14:47, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

Spy Fox 2 Screenshot Deletion Complaint

For some strange reason,your bot ordered me to delete this screenshot File:Spy Fox 2.JPG of the computer game. I checked the article "Spy Fox 2:Some Assembly Required" and saw that the image that was used to replace this image in the article was completely off-topic. Subsequently, I restored it back to the actual screenshot of the game. Other reasons why this screenshot should be kept are because it was of a low screen resolution, it is used to illustrate the main idea of the game and has a "Fair Use" tag on the image. Because this image is appropriate for the article should not have been considered to be deleted at all.

Sort of a "bug"

File:Efcafrica8poster.jpg tagged by DASHBot and message left on my talk page. But I did not upload the original, mine was just a quick resize for FUR.

In the history USER:Ghost563 still shows as the first entry - so I've cut and pasted the DASHbot message to his talk page. Maybe DASHBot should send to the original uploader? - I'll wager there are cases where that's not applicable either. Maybe send to original and last uploader?

Mistaken Tag

Hello, Tim1357! I'm not sure why, but your bot tagged an image I uploaded for deletion based on it being "orphaned".

Wait: I see there was a glitch. When this IP vandalized the page by changing the Infobox, somehow the image got removed without them actually removing it.

The image was part of a page that was simply tampered with and was restored back to it's original state. The image in question is fine now! Musicfreak7676 (talk) 18:21, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

Problem related to DASHBot

DASHBot has tagged File:YEAH-Def_Leppard.jpg for deletion as it's not listed as being used. However, the image is indeed used in the article listed in the FUR. I don't know why that page is not listed under the "File usage" section. Any ideas? Two Hearted River (paddle / fish) 18:27, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

Regarding this (message of your bot):

File source problem with File:Five Dollars a Day FilmPoster.jpeg

Thank you for uploading File:Five Dollars a Day FilmPoster.jpeg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged.

Bot removed non-replaceable non-free fair-use image 6abc IKEA Thanksgiving Day Parade.jpg

Tim:

Your DASHbot removed a non-replaceable non-free fair-use image (6abc IKEA Thanksgiving Day Parade.jpg) from the 6abc IKEA Thanksgiving Day Parade article. This is an image included in all of the advertising for the parade and its two primary sponsors, WPVI-TV (6abc) and Dunkin' Donuts, and is used as a fair-use image because it is used by the main sponsors to promote the event and is not replaceable. Please replace this image, and if possible, would you please rename the title of the article as "6abc Dunkin' Donuts Thanksgiving Day Parade", as the name of the parade has changed for 2011 due to the new sponsor?

Film articles needing an image

Non-free reduction bot

Given that this bot is supposed to run daily, why is there still a large backlog of files waiting to be resized, some of which have been sitting there for weeks?

Thanks! — Train2104 (talk • contribs • count) 14:45, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

I had it ignore jpegs for some reason. I'm sure I had a good reason for that, but I forgot, so I'm letting it go back and process jpegs again. Tim1357 ^talk 17:18, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

A lot better, but any reason why there are still 50+ non-audio files skipped? — Train2104 (talk • contribs • count) 14:31, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

Bot fail

I just received this message, notifying me that an image I have uploaded has been marked for deletion because it isn't being used. But it is, as a simple check on What links here shows. Please teach your bot to do the same. Thanks. Rp (talk) 23:24, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

It needs to be used in an article. Tim1357 ^talk 03:08, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

Why?? Because your bot says so? Rp (talk) 17:28, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

Another issue is the fact that this image is a small fragment from a full image that *is* used in an article. I can't blame your bot for not detecting that, of course. Rp (talk)

Finally, the instructions given for turning the biot off don't work (they tell me to edit a page, but it is protected). I don't want to turn off the bot by the way, I just want it to stop adding its notice on that particular page. Rp (talk) 09:49, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

Small DASHbot gripe

Moving album reviews I'm glad that you've got your bot moving reviews from infoboxes to {{Album ratings}} and as far as I can tell, it's working fine. I'd like to request an additional feature, if I may: as you can see on numerous album articles (including the diff from above), these are frequently styled in the form "Pitchfork Media | (5.6/10)^[3]" but {{Album ratings}} does not recommend the parentheses and sure enough, they're superfluous when you have different columns in a table. They made sense when it was a line of text all run together, but now they don't. If possible, it would be nice if these could be omitted. If that's a hassle, don't worry about it. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 15:35, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

The return of the album ratings bot

Greetings, Tim1357. Any chance of bringing back the album ratings bot, to move the rest of the reviews from the album infobox to the album ratings template? That was going really well. I think the next step is to have the bot add a References section to articles that don't have one, along with a {{Reflist}} template. According to my reading of WP:APPENDIX, that should be placed before any "Further reading" or "External links" sections, but should otherwise be the last section in the article, and come before any of the templates, categories, or interlanguage links at the bottom of the article. I also definitely recommend keeping things simple, and focused, by not having the bot do any incidental cleanup. The previous runs of the album ratings bot were hugely popular, I thought, and if the bot can move most of the remaining reviews, the end of the cleanup could be done by hand. Thanks for your consideration of this idea. (If you reply here I will see what you say.) — Mudwater ^(Talk) 21:48, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

Super. I got the bot to work for the most part. I'm having trouble working around navboxes (having the bot recognize which templates are navboxes and should go after the references section). I've got something for that, but for now I'm having the bot do 1000 edits tonight and (for now) ignore articles where the reference section has to go at the end. Tim1357 ^talk 05:28, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

Hey, this is great. Thanks! I would urge you to keep up the good work. I've created a new talk page section for editors to leave feedback on what the bot does, at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums#The return of the album ratings bot. And here's a minor suggestion: It would be slightly better if the {{Reflist}} template had a capital R, although I really would not bother to go back and change any of the ones that were done already. Anyway, I hope you can continue to run more batches of the bot, it would be great to get this project completed. Feel free to reply here, or at the WP Albums talk page section. Thanks again. — Mudwater ^(Talk) 01:48, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

I'm un-archving this section for further discussion. — Mudwater ^(Talk) 23:37, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
