Automatic or Manual: Automatic unsupervised
Programming language(s): AWB/Pywikipedia
Source code available: Standard pywikipediabot/AWB
Function overview: Replacing/removing templates per WP:TFD, wikiproject requests, and such
Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate):
Edit period(s): when requested
Estimated number of pages affected:
Exclusion compliant (Y/N): Y
Already has a bot flag (Y/N): Y
Function details: Replaces templates, according to discussions on WP:TFD, Wikiprojects requests, and the like. Was prompted by Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Tasks#New task, which I mistakenly run without realizing my previous approval covers only the substitution of templates, not replacing, a big error on my part. Once I realized it, I have immmediately stopped the bot, and come here for approval. My sincere apologies for this mistake.
Discussion
[edit]- The bot, in its run, was run in AWB. I'm listing pywikipediabot approval for longer tasks. Obviously, should the BAG decide to consider this task for trial, I can do the trial on both frameworks if requested. Snowolf How can I help? 21:03, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
Approved for trial. Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. It would be a good idea to use both frameworks just to make sure that they both run smoothly. --Chris 10:06, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
{{OperatorAssistanceNeeded|D}} Any updates? (if there is no response soon, this request will be marked as expired). --Chris 10:12, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
- My apologies to you, Chris, and to the BAG in general, I have been unable to carry out the trial yet. I will do so today. Again, I'm sorry. Snowolf How can I help? 13:49, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
- I have started the trial. I am using Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Tasks#New task as task. I am skipping commemorative euro coins pending input on whether it should be switched to the specific euro-related template. Snowolf How can I help? 15:17, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
- I have done ~60 edits, spread between the two frameworks (the edits with "Adding template {{ir-Money}} per Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Tasks#New_task" as summary are made with pywikipedia, the ones with "Adding template per Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/Tasks#New_task, bot is in trial" as summary are made with AWB), as no specific amount of edits was set for the trial, I wish to know how many I should do.

- Sixty edits was enough to show both frameworks operated satisfactorily.
