[Pywikipedia-l] Urlencoded section titles
by Bináris 13 Sep '18

13 Sep '18

Happy Monday, There are strange people who make such links (kindof urlencoded?): [[Második világháború#Partrasz.C3.A1ll.C3.A1s Szic.C3.ADli.C3.A1ban .28Huskey hadm.C5.B1velet.29|Huskey hadműveletben]] So the section title must have been copied from the URL. Do we have a ready tool to fix these? -- Bináris

[Pywikipedia-l] Template parsing code
by Hannes Röst 02 Sep '16

02 Sep '16

Hello all >From one of my assignments as a bot operator I have some code which does template parsing and general text parsing (e.g. Image/File tags). It is not using regex and thus able to correctly parse nested templates and other such nasty things. I have written those as library classes and written tests for them which cover almost all of the code. I would now really like to contribute that code back to the community. Would you be interested in adding this code to the pywikibot framework? If yes, can I send the code to someone for code review or how do you usually operate? Greetings Hannes PS: wiki userpage is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Hannes_R%C3%B6st

[Pywikipedia-l] Automatic generation of templates descriptions
by Yury Katkov 14 Apr '13

14 Apr '13

Hello! Is there a bot or extension that can generate stubs of template descriptions by template wikitext? It should be pretty simple: the bot will just grab all template parameters {{{PARAMETER}}} and lists those parameters. If no such extensions exists could anybody tell how to programaticaly get the parameters of a given template? Sincerely yours, ----- Yury Katkov

[Pywikipedia-l] Problems with pageimport.py on 3rd party wiki
by Gregory Varnum 13 Apr '13

13 Apr '13

Having problems with pageimport.py on a third-party wiki (WikiQueer). Anyone else having issues with that script? I'm calling it from a script I'm playing around with - but no luck. It doesn't error out - but it doesn't import and confirms that the import failed. Here's the "test" script I'm working from: import wikipedia as pywikibot from pageimport import * def main(): wanted_category_title = "Apple" enwiki_site = pywikibot.getSite() importerbot = Importer(enwiki_site) # Inizializing importerbot.Import(wanted_category_title,project='wikipedia', prompt = True) try: main() finally: pywikibot.stopme() On a related note, the ultimate goal is to import pages for "Wanted Categories" from English Wikipedia into the third-party wiki. Any ideas, tips or existing code to that end would also be appreciated. Thanks! -greg aka varnent ------- Gregory Varnum Lead, Aequalitas Project Lead Administrator, WikiQueer Founding Principal, VarnEnt @GregVarnum fb.com/GregVarnum

[Pywikipedia-l] Pywikibot code contribution
by Hannes Röst 04 Jan '13

04 Jan '13

Dear all I have posted to this mailing list in January with a library that I wanted to contribute to the codebase. This is part of an effort on my side to refactor code that accumulated over various bot-operator tasks and make it available to the community. The main part of the code deals with spellchecking using hunspell (http://hunspell.sourceforge.net/) instead of the list-based approach currently used in spellcheck.py. The second part is an interactive robot to do revision control (Sichten) in the german wikipedia. There are some api functions that use the "undo" functions of the action=edit command and an api function that uses the action=review command. So I wanted to ask whether somebody had time to have a look at the code I submitted here http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3479070&group_id=93107&atid… (I uploaded a new file "(moved testSamples)" please us this to test, the other one seems corrupt and cannot be deleted any more as well). Thus, is there a code-review process that I can undergo or what do you suggest is the best way to get the code into trunk (if at all?). Would it be easier if I talked directly to one of you? What are the criteria to get SVN commit access -- I was just wondering what the general rules are. Greetings Hannes

[Pywikipedia-l] Fix for wikipedia.py getVersionHistory
by Johnuniq 16 Aug '12

16 Aug '12

Pywikipedia (r10475 (wikipedia.py), 2012/08/09, 16:51:37) wikipedia.py seems to have the same bug in two places. At lines 2976 and 3145: if 'query-continue' in result and getAll: params['rvstartid'] = ... where ... is: result['query-continue']['revisions']['rvstartid'] Fix is to change "rvstartid" to "rvcontinue": result['query-continue']['revisions']['rvcontinue'] # Demonstrate problem by running following. # Get a long history list from en.wikipedia.org. import wikipedia site = wikipedia.getSite(fam='wikipedia') page = wikipedia.Page(site, 'Ahalya') hist = page.getVersionHistory(getAll=True) print 'len(getVersionHistory()) = %d' % len(hist) Calling getVersionHistory() raises an exception at line 2977: KeyError: 'rvstartid' That is fixed by making the change shown above; output: len(getVersionHistory()) = 1256 John

There is indeed a method of pywikipediabot that does this - it's called templatesWithParams() Here is a code example where I am looking to get see what the "VIAF" parameter is of the {{Authority Control}} template: def determineAuthorityControlTemplate(nameOfPage): """returns 'noACtemplate' if no Authority Control Template, 'templateNoVIAF' if AC template but no VIAF number, and returns the viaf number if it exists""" namepage = Page(enwp,nameOfPage) templates = namepage.templatesWithParams() #here we load the templates into a list for template in templates: # go through the templates if template[0] == 'Authority control': # are we looking at the right template? for param in template[1]: #go through the paramaters of the template if param[:4] == 'VIAF': #are we looking at the right parameter? return param[5:] return 'templateNoVIAF' return 'noACtemplate' Best, Max > > > Sincerely yours, > ----- > Yury Katkov > > > > _______________________________________________ > Pywikipedia-l mailing list > Pywikipedia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org > https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/pywikipedia-l > >
