Discussion

@DreamRimmer: Hi. What language did the original program by fastily use for this task? —usernamekiran (talk) 14:37, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Usernamekiran: All the tasks were authored in Python, but Fastily used a different library, pwiki, which they developed themselves. It would take me a lot of time to understand a new library, so I am rewriting it using Pywikibot. – DreamRimmer (talk) 15:26, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Approved for trial (50 edits or 30 days, whichever happens first). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. Just need to make sure everything's working given the code rewrite. Primefac (talk) 12:36, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Trial complete. Edits. Everything looks good to me. It ignores files in categories listed in the config file, just like the previous bot. – DreamRimmer (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 17:16, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@DreamRimmer, you might want to link to this page in the edit summary. Qwerfjkl talk 14:26, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, I will link it. I did not include this because Primefac did not mention this in the approval comment. – DreamRimmer (talk) 15:57, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
