Wikipedia talk:reFill

hi - A news publication in NJ USA called TapInto has a number of city-based news pages by different journalists. When I put a bare URL recently using the Refill Tool forge tool, it no longer seems to fill it? Wondering why and if there is a fix? I also opened a discussion awhile back on TapInto' talk page. Thanks in advance

Hi I have installed reFill userscript on my Tewiki account. Whenm I clicked the toolbox link, I am getting the 403 forbidden error s it s going to " refill.toolforge.org//result.php?" instead of " refill.toolforge.org/ng/result.php?" I know this issue was discussed above. I am just curious to know if there is any solution for this so that I can use it as userscript, I mean, from the toolbox link (not as bookmarklet). Thanks. __ Chaduvari (talk) 03:48, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Chaduvari: this page being on my watchlist.

Following the refill.toolforge.org/ng/result.php: The browser (or proxy) sent a request that this server could not understand.

Also, as a test, I tried it here. It does work, but imo it is not good, because of the text in the dates that have to be translated into English. Hope that answers your question. Lotje (talk) 04:16, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Lotje, thanks for helping. When I go to "refill.toolforge.org/ng/result.php?", it works fine. But the toolbar link of "reFill" is going to "refill.toolforge.org//result.php?". Please note there is no "ng" in the url. That is my problem. I am not sure if I am doing anything wrong here. __ Chaduvari (talk) 04:22, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Too bad I could not be more helpful. Cheers. Lotje (talk) 04:53, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Chaduvari: Have you got the incorrect link in your common.js file (may be called something else on Tewiki)? Keith D (talk) 21:01, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yes, Keith D. Here is my common.js page.

When I clicked the reFill link on some random page, it took me to the 403 - Forbidden page at "https://refill.toolforge.org//result.php?page=%E0%B0%A2%E0%B0%BF%E0%B0%B2%E0%B1%8D%E0%B0%B2%E0%B1%80_%E0%B0%A4%E0%B1%86%E0%B0%B2%E0%B1%81%E0%B0%97%E0%B1%81_%E0%B0%85%E0%B0%95%E0%B0%BE%E0%B0%A1%E0%B0%AE%E0%B1%80&defaults=y&nowatch=y&wiki=te"

@Chaduvari: Looks like the entry in your common.js file is OK. The reFill set-up puts 2 entries in the toolbar list, reFill 2 & reFill(o), which one are you using? Do both give the same problem? Keith D (talk) 09:58, 29 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Keith D, only "reFill" is shown in the tool bar. "reFill 2", which is shown in enwiki, is not there in tewiki. __ Chaduvari (talk) 10:29, 29 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Looks like it is the reFill(o) link that is the problem as that entry gives "403 forbidden" here on English Wiki. That one is supposed to give you the setup of the options to use for the run. Keith D (talk) 10:44, 29 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Chaduvari, I have a modified Reflinks.js which just utilise /ng/ endpoints:

mw.loader.load( "https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Robertsky/Reflinks.js&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript" );

Try using this instead? – robertsky (talk) 10:35, 29 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Robertsky Great! it is working now. I could correct a reference in an article. Thanks for the help.__ Chaduvari (talk) 11:00, 29 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

It appeared as "reFill" and not as "reFill 2", but worked fine. __ Chaduvari (talk) 11:02, 29 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yeah... If it is expected to be reFill 2, I will update accordingly. There are some hidden options in the JavaScript codes for enwiki which I will seek to explore and restore, and see if it is something that can be used for the other wikis. – robertsky (talk) 11:35, 29 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Unfortunately, I'm still getting the "403 error" when I go in from my bookmark/the project page. I've tried https://refill.toolforge.org/ng but this just arrives at a blank page. This is frustrating, as I have Perrycroft which is in desperate need of a clean-up! Anything that can be done to get it going again would be greatly appreciated.

Now working again - hurrah! Thanks so much for your work in keeping this essential tool running. KJP1 (talk) 11:07, 4 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Now we have the "Pending" issue. Can someone wield a spanner. KJP1 (talk) 09:29, 11 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

For the past month or so, I only get a 403 error page from the link. The suggested https://refill.toolforge.org/ng/ seems to work. Should we change the link to point there, or is there some fix planned for the errors at https://refill.toolforge.org/ ? Rjjⁱⁱⁱ (talk) 17:22, 11 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Since about 15:30 UTC. Could someone help? Cheers in advance, This is Paul (talk) 17:20, 23 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Seconded. It seems to be down. BD2412 T 04:10, 24 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

It is still displaying the "Waiting for available worker." message. Skilgis1900 (talk) 03:35, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Same message here. Ixocactus (talk) 03:46, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

It seems to be fixed again, so a huge thanks to whoever did that. This is Paul (talk) 16:46, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Now, I'm not getting no response to an entry. Skilgis1900 (talk) 20:43, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Same here, my last successful entry was at 17:25 UTC today. Seemed to go wrong after that. I've been out for the evening and just tried again but still appears to be broke. This is Paul (talk) 22:10, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

It appears to be working again now. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 08:24, 27 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Sorry I forgot to update this. It does seem to be intermittently breaking then working again. At this moment I'm waiting for an available worker. I had the same thing happen yesterday evening, but it started working again after a few minutes of waiting, so I'm hoping the same thing will happen again tonight. It's a hugely useful tool to have as it saves time when adding references, so I hope if there's any bugs they can be fixed. This is Paul (talk) 21:59, 29 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Now it's working again. This is Paul (talk) 22:42, 29 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Seems to be down again. Not sure what is going on DualDoppler (talk) 02:33, 4 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

@DualDoppler: Working fine right now. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 13:01, 4 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

reFill 2 strangely wrote |url=https://www.bizpal.gov.nl.ca:443 in [1]. It should strip the ":443" part because that's the default for HTTPS.

The website itself played a role in this. curl -v http://www.bcbizpal.ca/ returned < Location: https://www.bizpal.gov.nl.ca:443. However, browsers like Firefox will actually immediately remove the ":443" part in the address bar and before making the network request. reFill should stop adding the port when it's ":443" so that both the HTML and wikitext source is cleaner (hovering doesn't show the :443 for some reason). 174.89.12.36 (talk) 13:35, 10 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
