Amit Erez

I uploaded an Amit Erez page and got this comment from CorenSearchBot saying that the text was copied from http://bolachasgratis.baywords.com/?p=5835. I work in the label that distributes Amit Erez' music, and the text that appears of the site above was written by the label. hope this clears the deal. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AnovaMusic (talk • contribs) 10:29, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

False positives

I have recently been creating a number of stubs to expand coverage of a few areas of spaceflight. My editing style is to reuse the same basic layout (and where possible some of the content) to both save time and to facilitate consistency between these articles. The problem with this is that your bot has started tagging several of my newer articles as copyvios of one that I created a couple of days ago. Is there any way that I can opt out, or some other way to prevent these false positives?. --GW… 21:01, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

DRV closure of Corralesx.jpg

While your closure of this discussion was right (because Jimbo came up with a replacement image), it had the wrong reasoning. NFCC are indeed a foundation issue, but the interpretation of whether a particular image meets them or not is a question of fact in each case, to be determined by consensus, not by fiat. Stifle (talk) 08:50, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Yes, but the burden lies in the other direction. An image that isn't unique by definition is replacable until proven otherwise, no matter how many people say "keep"; and when it is known that the Copyright holder empathically does not want it used then restoring it for any reason dumps liability upon the Foundation.

The only way around this is to either find a replacement or build a strong case for its irreplacability, neither of which is best done in a DRV. That Jimbo found a suitable replacement in minutes simply illustrates the point. NFCC isn't for "can't be arsed to look for a replacement", but for genuinely irreplacable images which this was not. — Coren (talk) 09:59, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

CorenSearchBot

Coren, did you see the messenge that the user of pt.wikipedia, HyperBroad leave in your talk page in one month ago? If not, i'm writing it again. The sysop HyperBroad suggested of the pt.wikipedia's community (link here) to import your bot, CorenSearchBot, to Portuguese Wikipedia. The suggestion was aproveted! The community wants your bot. So, he asked you about your opinion, but you don't answered he. So, i'm here to ask you about: What do you think about import your bot to there? We wait your answer. If you want it, you can leave a messege on my talk page or in our 'Village pump', the Esplanada. Thanks! Vitorbraziledit (talk) 01:54, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

I don't know if it's wise for me to operate a bot on a Wiki where I couldn't understand the operating language since it'd make hard for me to be responsive — but if you have a bot operator willing to run it then I have no problem with it. I haven't had time to finish publishing the source this weekend, but I should be done within 24h. — Coren (talk) 03:50, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
Coren, the operating language of Portuguese Wikipedia's bot could be AWB, Pywikipedia, Python (or other [any one as the English Wikipedia]). You could ask for the bot status and in the same time have a "pt User" as a delegate of your bot (as we have the bot Salebot, that is operated by an French Wikipedia's user and have a delegate in Portuguese's). What do you think about it? Vitorbraziledit (talk) 15:21, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
I meant human language. It's important that whoever operates a bot be able to speak to other editors so as to be responsive in case of trouble. If you have an operator, then there is no difficulty. — Coren (talk) 21:55, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
So, i can be the delegate of your bot. Any trouble, i will translate and contact you about. What do you think? The biggest bot of vandalism of our wiki, the Salebot, is operated by a French Wikipedia user, that have the same bot in other wikis with delegates in the Wikipedias's language. In our case, the delegate is the user Kim Richard. Vitorbraziledit (talk) 22:11, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
The source is now available here. — Coren (talk) 15:02, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
I can't acess the source. Are you sure about import your bot to pt.wikipedia? The community is waiting for an answer. Please! Come on! Vitorbraziledit (talk) 03:46, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
Oh, I think you misunderstood me. I do not have the resources (nor, frankly, the time) to operate another bot— especially on a wiki I am not familiar with. You might want to ask around on your home wiki for someone to operate it, or maybe here on the bot request page. — Coren (talk) 10:33, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
Well, i can operate your bot there. But, we have a trouble: I never was operator of any bot! Can you help me? Where will i put the source? Vitorbraziledit (talk) 18:30, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
I'm afraid it may not be as simple as you hope; you need to have a server that is permanently online and from where you can run perl scripts, you need to be able to add modules to your local perl install via CPAN, you need to get a Yahoo application ID and edit the script to configure it. It's really not meant to be user-friendly or to be operated by someone without relevant experience— I expect your best bet is to find someone who already operates bots and wouldn't mind to configure and operate this one. — Coren (talk) 21:23, 3 June 2009 (UTC)
So, with this difficults, i wiil tell the community about it. I have other question: How did you put the messege about "CorenSearchBot leave a template on your talk page" that i can see when i edit this page? Vitorbraziledit (talk) 02:15, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
That's handled automatically by Mediawiki. The message is at User talk:Coren/Editnotice. — Coren (talk) 13:03, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

I asked the community (here) about your bot (link). I have other question: Can you tell me some types of bots that there here (vandalism, interwiki...)? Vitorbraziledit (talk) 20:34, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi.

I've tried to run the bot on pt.wiki, from the sourcecode. An error message appears on the DOS prompt:

Can't locate object method "new" via package "Text::Align::WagnerFischer" (perhaps you forgot to load "Text::Align::WagnerFischer"?) at nameofthebot.pl line 423.

Is it easy to solve it? lijealso (talk) 21:42, 7 June 2009 (UTC)

You need that module; I think it's available via CPAN, otherwise a quick google for it by name should give you what you need. I see install instructions there, that should give you a good headstart. — Coren (talk) 02:48, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
In the beginning I've installed the module but something went wrong. I'll try to follow the instructions on that page. Thanks. lijealso (talk) 19:06, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

J&S application - status?

Hi Coren,

Regarding my application to take part in the J&S guidelines discussion per this decision, it appears that the deadline has passed. According to FloNight, discussion of the application has taken place but the outcome was not disclosed [1], apparently through clerical error. Could you look into this?

Nom de guerre (band)

The page with this title (above) was created because someone placed the same info on the Nom de guerre redirect page. It is, of course invisible there, so I took the same info and made a new article out of it. I will do some research to fill it in better, and erase the hidden text from the Nom de guerre redirect page. It is no big deal, but I don't think it should be deleted.

Kuczkowska v. Sadalska

FYI. Dorota Kuczkowska and Karolina Sadalska are two different people who competed in two different Summer Olympics in the same event. They also won different number and types of medals at the ICF Canoe Sprint World Championships. In my opinion, I think your search bot is a little hypersensitive though I understand why you are doing this. Chris (talk) 21:38, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Where it says in guidelines you cannot use sentence quotes from external sites

"You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences." was the message of the bots. I have been edited hundreds of articles, which even contains quoted paragraphs. So can you possibly refer which guidelines refer you cannot source of sentences for Phil Goldvarg I had taken 3 classes for copyright and intellectual property at my time during 2 different universities, in addition to academic thesis writing, excessive apply of copyright arguments are not much helpful if you ask me. By the way after you state which particular parts or edits you refer, we can discuss this with more detail. Kasaalan (talk) 20:53, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

There is a significant difference between quoting a work, and copying it wholesale to "make" an article. In particular, the version of the article that was tagged was entirely copied verbatim. There is no "part" to point out, the entire article was plagiarized. — Coren (talk) 22:02, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
Can you just refer which part of the article in that date 17 february was "entirely plagiarized". Paraphrasing was all I do with 2 quotes of writers personal comments, where it leaves as much space as possible for paraphrasing, since the text was consisting of facts and events, with clear referencing to the source. There was a message you appreciate feedback, that is what I am trying to do. Kasaalan (talk) 13:18, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
this is the version that was tagged. As is plainly visible, the entire first section is a cut-and-paste copy of this webpage. Placing well over two thirds of an article between quotation marks does not a proper quotation make; this needed to have been rewritten with a cite to the original, not simply lifted. — Coren (talk) 17:36, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
Yes you have a point then. That is mostly because my editing style, I first quote the text, then paraphrase it. If it only objects 18:07 version and not objects 19:59 I have not much objection. However even in that text most of the quote consists of place names, magazine names, etc. If you can implement not counting private names to the bot, the bot may function even better. Kasaalan (talk) 19:08, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
CSBot tags specific versions of articles. If the problems it spotted have since been fixed, then there is no problem left. Tags left by the bot are always reviewed by human editors before action is taken for that very reason. — Coren (talk) 23:30, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Doctor Doom

(if you find any language error, please forgive me)

Greetings. I noticed that you have blocked Doctor Doom article. It all happened because I tried to put the character's name in the category Fictional characters who have mental powers. Since then, the user ThuranX started to revert my editions and prevented me from put the article in this category, because he doesn't know much about Doctor Doom history. I must have made some mistakes, but this guy is very arrogant. I think all that he wants is to say to me: You cannot put this in the article! I'm right and you are wrong! I won and you lost!. I also think he hasn't any intention of helping the other users who want to edit the article. He didn't even tried to discover if what I'm trying to prove is true or not.

I'm doing this because I saw several comics where Doctor Doom appears, and in one of these, in one of several times he fought The Fantastic Four, he explains how he escaped from death by exchanging his mind with another man. This information was already in the article before I made my edition, because someone else knew about this saga, and it proves that the character has a mental power, then why the user didn't remove the information or put the template "CITATION NEDDED" near it?

But I noticed later that the information which says Doctor Doom learned from a character named Ovoids the process of psionically (psionic has to do with mind) transferring his consciousness into another nearby being has a citation. The note #52 says that it happened in the magazine Mighty Avengers between the numbers 9 and 11. But the citation has no hyperlink. What I want to know is: If I put the article again in the category I would be vandalizing the article and I would be blocked? Or, the article can be included in the category along with a template on its top that informs the article need more sources?

Please help me, talk to me. I promisse you I will not continue the war of editions.Brazilian Man (talk) 23:24, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

The best thing to do is to discuss this on the article's talk page. Don't see this as a battle you must win, but explain your arguments and make your suggestions. Wikipedia operates on the concept of consensus, and sometimes lesser known details are not included in articles because they are difficult to verify (which is the basis of an encyclopedia).

Even if your suggestion is not kept, there may be other venues more suitable for vast amounts of hard-to-verify data— I'm not a comics fan, so I don't know them myself, but I would be very much surprised if there wasn't a Wiki dedicated to describing the various fictional universes of comics in minute detail. — Coren (talk) 23:28, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

I wish to thank you. I found some sources and the user stopped preventing me from edit the article. Please I 'd like you to go to Doctor Doom's talk page and see the section Doctor Doom: The truth. You will find several evidences that say I was not wrong.
But now there's a new problem: this time the user ThuranX just don't want let me write some information I have proved already it's true. Now it's him who wants to create a war of editions. For example: In the article Doctor Doom, at the section Mental powers, I just want to put the information which says Doctor Doom has changed bodies with all Fantastic Four Members already and also with Daredevil, but everytime I put this words at the section, he removes it. I showed at the talk page that this information is true. I tried to talk to him, but it's useless. Could you please talk to him stop doing these things and make him understand that's not his page? I mean, I want to make my editions but he is watching every step I take inside of the page and removing what I write. Please help me one more time.Brazilian Man (talk) 02:17, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

About the contents of Wzebra

About the contents of Wzebra.

There's no any sign of copyright in the WZebra homepage and the host of the website seems to say that there is no any copyright. See [4]

Also, WZebra is a free software. Richard 0907 (talk) 10:41, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Well, in the first place, the copyright notice you linked to applies only to the software itself (but would have not allowed copying to Wikipedia if it was for the text: it is not compatible with either licences). But also, you need to understand that you've got things backwards: everything is copyrighted by default: unless there is explicit permission, you can't copy stuff you find on the web to Wikipedia. — Coren (talk) 14:15, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Collaborative editing

I wonder if you might recognize something plausibly useful in these three related images? When you examine these links, I'm suggesting that you construe graphic depictions of Wikipedia contributors working well with each other. In my view, the artwork on these Nobel diplomas does illustrate something about the process of collaborative editing.

The otherwise abstract concepts in the chemical/biomolecular process of metathesis are especially well-visualized in the unique diplomas which were crafted for King Carl XVI Gustaf to present to the three scientists who shared the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 2005.

Why should I have to refactor blunt speech?

Go look at my talk page, the article talk page, and the article history. It's been a week of baiting, attacks, declarations of intent to edit war. He's spent days jumping IPs deliberately, not logging in to an established account to force me to AGF through lots of policy and guideline presentation when it turns out he's well acquainted with them all. That I got sick of his bad faith behaviors and his setting of false obstacles and decided to speak bluntly says more about him that me. I made an amazing effort to keep trying, only, after the semi-protection, to find out that he full well knew exactly what he was doing all along? No way. ThuranX (talk) 04:18, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

corenbot error for a redirect

I created a redirect from U.S. Arsenal Building, the NRHP program name for an NRHP-listed place, to the wikipedia article name for that place, Tower Building of the Little Rock Arsenal. Corenbot, rather quickly, posts a report of possible copyvio for the redirect as being a copy of another page, The Tower Building of the Little Rock Arsenal, which is another redirect (differs from target by just "The"). Seems like any redirect, whether 1st or 2nd or 3rd or 4th, should not trigger a copyvio assessment! Hope this helps. doncram (talk) 10:41, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

It is not saying copyvio, but it is unnecessarily making warning at my Talk page, when i create another redirect to a different article. New redirect Old Post Office Building and Customhouse redirects to same article as Old Post Office and Customshouse, which is fine and good. I think your bot should accept that multiple alternative names might redirect to the same article. doncram (talk) 22:36, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
It does, normally. I haven't had the time to look into it yet, but it's fishy. I'll give you an explanation as soon as I figure it out. — Coren (talk) 02:14, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
Well, I found the cause if not the actual bug. My redirect detection code looked for #REDIRECT (all caps), and didn't recognize #redirect to just flat out ignore it as it should. On the other hand there is an odd underlying bug where it actually follows the redirect when doing the comparison; this is odd because I don't actually implement redirect following at all. Apparently, something changed in the API at some point in the past to do that automatically, and it never came up before since most people do all-caps redirects. At any rate, I've now changed it to ignore case in redirects so the bug should not recur. — Coren (talk) 02:33, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

CorenSearchBot confused my article with a redirect?

Here's the diff. Why wouldn't it flag it against the real article, rather than the redirect? Even so, it's a dubious false positive - I don't see all that much duplication. They both use the same infobox, but with different parameters. They both have a succession box at the bottom, but once again, with different parameters, and they both have the same navbox. Other than that, these two articles have almost no content in common with each other. DeFaultRyan 19:08, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

It appears that the Mediawiki API has changed recently in a way that confuses my bot. It will be disabled until I find out what, exactly, has changed and code around it.

CSB not notifying some contributors

Hi again Coren, sorry to keep badgering you like this; CSBot, while now reporting to SCV and tagging articles, seems reluctant to notify contributors whose talk pages have yet to be created. For example this article is tagged, but this contributor isn't notified, presumably because the talk page didn't exist at the time. There are more examples of the same. Regards, – Toon(talk) 16:19, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

I am aware. As I've explained here, it's a known bug that I've yet to pin down, probably attributable to my incomplete understanding of the new API edit interface. I felt it better to spot the copyvios anyways while I was working on finding the solution than keep the bot offline, though. — Coren (talk) 02:32, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, no problem with that. I probably forgot to uncheck the "remove backlinks" on that deletion. — Coren (talk) 17:57, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

SouthEast LinuxFest deleted

The statement was "the contents of SouthEast LinuxFest (SELF), and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.ls.net/node/887. ". I have tried to view the site but am unable to view the site. I am a co web master for the souteastlinuxfest.org web site so if someone if coping our site I would love to know about it as well. The text I placed on the page that was deleted were either my words or the words on our web site. What do I do now. This is the first article I have ever tried to enter.

Thanks for any assistance Lbyrd1984 (talk) 00:06, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Coren, please note that the editor concerned has continued to edit in violation of the topic ban [6] [7] and has publicly dismissed your response.[8] I think this has escalated to the point where a block is required - he shows no sign of any willingness to comply. -- ChrisO (talk) 18:48, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Haim Reitan

Dear

Dr. Haim Reitan’s article and CV is my exclusivity. Arben Çokaj is collaborator of Eagles’ wing magazine. I have ordered the writing and he has taken the data from me. And in this case there isn’t a copyright violation because I have the data and if anyone writes an article this is due to the data I gave to them.

Best regards

Hello

I think that the new contributions of Xanxarien and my contributions have totally improved the biography in the article about Haim Reitan and now it looks different as if it was a new article.

Please delete user/disc pages; warn jayron/redpen/mufka

Hello coren, If you could please delete my page and page history, I'd be much obliged.

I requested speedy deletion on 1Apr for reason 1.6. jayron deleted it, then acted as if s/he did me a favour. I feel jayron shouldnt have been the one to delete it initially as s/he and I have negatively interacted in the past. Followups from jayron included an unneccesary block; followed by telling me to get a yahoo email so that I may contact wiki admins!

Wiki is all about anon editing : as such I didnt and wont get an email account in order to communicate as it is not required.

Since then jayron,redpen, mufka have been repeatedly editing my page. I blank my page they restore it. This has been happening since April, so for 3months now. I bet if I changed their pages they'd posting threats of "i'll report you" and/or "you will be banned". It is quite easy for me to get a new ip address but I dont think Ive done anything wrong, so I wont change my ip address.

If my pages needed to be restored /reverted, I definitely think those three arent the ones who should do it as they/I have a convoluted history.

If you could please delete my page and page history, I'd be much obliged.
If you could contact jayron, redpen, & mufka & ask that any problems they have they let an admin or arbitrator know, instread of making changes or posting to me. I'd like to edit wiki in peace Thanks.173.79.58.33 (talk) 17:10, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

CPIM

The page was a redirect for A major political party in India. But someone replaced it with an article.

So I did the following- 1. The article moved to its real name instead of this acronym. 2. Then the page is reverted to the original redirect.

So just after the first step there were 2 articles with same content. That was the reason for confusion. Aravind V R (talk) 11:26, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Restoration of Deleted Pages

Hello,

If you do not remember me, you unblocked me three months ago, thank you again. However, I still have numerous red links on my userpage from deletions made by blocking users. I believe I have deleted all inappropriate red links, but if you have any questions feel free to ask me. My pride and joy, Template:Babel2, takes first priority for me. I want that template back so much.

Thanks for hearing me out,

Harold Dale Meyerkord article

CorenSearchBot tagged my new article on Harold Dale Meyerkord with a copyright violation notice because the text is identical to that on the HazeGray site. The reason for this is that both the new article and HazeGray use the DANFS text, which is in the public domain. I have removed the bot tag, noted the bot's error in the article's discussion page, and left this note here. Note that for this bot to be useful, it needs to be able to distinguish between DANFS text copied to HazeGray and in the public domain and non-DANFS text on HazeGray, which may be copyrighted. Tagging DANFS text just because it appears on HazeGray is foolish. Mdnavman (talk) 23:27, 27 June 2009 (UTC)mdnavman

It does, if the page is properly attributed with the {{DANFS}} tag, which you had forgotten. — Coren (talk) 02:02, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

"Work it out on the talk page"???

Re your protection of autofellatio, yes you were indeed quite correct to sprotect the article, but did you actually read the revisions? Your edit summary leads me to believe that you didn't The two IPs were trying to insult each other using vandalism to do it. This wasn't an edit war it was me trying to stop the article from being vandalised. I'#m sure that doesn't need talk page discussion, unless there's a new dictate I'm not aware of... --WebHamster 00:09, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Err, not that I know of.  :-) I saw repeated changes to/around the image and repeated reversions— given the regular edit warring over the images on this article, I jumped to the conclusion that it was about the image again as opposed to random vandalism. — Coren (talk) 01:58, 29 June 2009 (UTC)

Constant vandalism and disruption

I don't understand why you admins turn blind to Tajik (talk · contribs) when he goes around use sockpuppets in your faces and vandalize pages after pages. Is Wikipedia some type of gang related website? User:Tajik is removing sourced material from articles, this is vandalism and you admins allow it. He uses the excuse "falsification and POVs" but it's really him doing those if you concentrate on his edits. These are only few examples: [9], [10], [11], [12], [13] He and Inuit18 (talk · contribs) (sockpuppet of Anoshirawan) pops up as a tag-team and usually at the same time, I believe that account is shared by him and someone in USA who's English is not so great. It's so strange that he comes everyday but only edit very little, so it's very likely that he's using sockpuppets to evade his 1 RR restriction. Tajik pretends that he is against POVs but it's he that is a POV pusher."The author - in this case al-Biruni - is referring to the Suleiman Mountains. In that case, it is highly probable that he was referring to Pashtuns, because he had described them as a "Hindu people" before.... Tajik (talk) 01:10, 26 June 2009 (UTC)". It's very clear for readers here that Tajik hates Pashtuns with great passion so he wants to give them a new history which would make them being Hindus when all the scholars, history books, encyclopedias, and the Pashtuns themselves, disagree. There is "zero traces" of any Hindu culture among the Pashtuns. Anyway, Tajik was blocked 17 times and banned for a whole year but he doesn't seem to care about any of that, he just wants to remove things from articles that he doesn't agree with or doesn't like. This is a serious problem and you guys should put an end to it. I also believe Muxlim (talk · contribs) is him.
