Hello!
Is it possible to run your bot on this page and its subpages+archive? It's kinda a matter of priority given that the said page is considered to be one of the important pages here (it's basically our WP:AFD) and it has some recurring lint errors that make it difficult to see what you're working with if you have the lint tool activated. You'll see for yourself when you take the lint. - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 15 tetor 2021 14:35 (CEST)
Is it cool to convert each parameter to
? It's one of the most common lint problems and I can do a full site change with my robot if that's the right thing to do. It would solve more than 75% of the current lint problems. - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 30 tetor 2021 17:30 (CEST)
Hello! Ever since we both started tackling the lint errors here, the number has been getting lowered. Today I saw that from 20k+ we've gone to 10k+, so that's literally more than half of the errors solved, a number which had been only increasing for more than 10 years. Whenever you have time, I'd suggest you to take a look at Speciale:LintErrors/obsolete-tag. There are thousand of errors that can be solved with some small changes to "font" and "tt" parameters, almost all following some specific patterns. Your bot can deal with them fast I believe. I already finished dealing with 80% of the problems related to the "center" parameter there which were solved with just the conversion I mentioned above. - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 4 nëntor 2021 14:09 (CET)
- My bot has been busy in enwiki, fixing 20k errors per day. I found some more patterns here, will fix them tomorrow. ಮಲ್ನಾಡಾಚ್ ಕೊಂಕ್ಣೊ (diskutimet) 4 nëntor 2021 14:20 (CET)
- Yeah, don't worry. Running an AWB bot basically requires a dedicated computer for that, turned into a server. :P I know what you mean because I sometimes run my bot like that. My post was mostly to emphasize the elements part (font and tt). I think that if we manage to lower the problems of the lowest priority (which were literally on the terms of tens of thousands) the results can be motivating to finish the job completely, even for the community here. And given that (un)?fortunately 90% of articles here are just translations from EnWiki with CTT, we have a lower possibility of ever getting to that big of a number in the future. Considering that EnWiki has a vast dedicated userbase in combating that. Most of the errors were coming from old templates in old articles, wrote before CTT age. Also HTML elements don't get obsolete that fast so... But as I said, take your time. I was just excited because I was working on it and saw the number halved and decided to tell you. :) - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 4 nëntor 2021 14:38 (CET)
- @Klein Muçi, I just noticed that LintHint does not work as a gadget in mobile web. It works in mobile when I use it by importing from my common.js file, but not as a gadget. ಮಲ್ನಾಡಾಚ್ ಕೊಂಕ್ಣೊ (diskutimet) 4 nëntor 2021 16:05 (CET)
- I had never tried it from mobile. Thanks for telling me! I'll talk with its creator and report back here if a fix is found. - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 5 nëntor 2021 01:09 (CET)
- I think it should be fixed now. Give it a try and let me now. :) - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 5 nëntor 2021 11:13 (CET)
- @Klein Muçi, it works now, thanks. I have ran my bot using some more patterns. This would have fixed a few thousand errors, mainly obsolete tags. ಮಲ್ನಾಡಾಚ್ ಕೊಂಕ್ಣೊ (diskutimet) 5 nëntor 2021 13:09 (CET)
- You're right. Can AWB help in missing end tag cases? I believe regex can be made to help with them, even though a bit more complex in nature, no? I'll take a look at that category of errors soon and see if there are any recurring patterns. If I find some, I'll report those here, maybe it helps you on your next run, whenever you find some time.
- It will be nice dropping even that category to less than 5k, like the other 2 low priority ones, again for motivational/"marketing" purposes as that would imply having solved 3/4 of the total current errors. - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 5 nëntor 2021 13:37 (CET)
- Yes, it is a bit more complex to fix missing end tags. AWB can help if a pattern is present in many pages. ಮಲ್ನಾಡಾಚ್ ಕೊಂಕ್ಣೊ (diskutimet) 5 nëntor 2021 15:10 (CET)
- So, was having a look on the missing end tags category. The most common error seems to be this this welcoming template that used to be substituted everywhere before. It is the same mistake in every user's talk page. If you can fix that once, you can fix it everywhere with AWB and that would solve some hundreds, if not thousands, problems there I guess. Then we can see what else remains. - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 7 nëntor 2021 00:57 (CET)
Your latest bot run massively cut down the number of lint errors, especially those of high and medium priority which were mostly untouched so far. Sadly we need around 2k more fixes to get the missing end tag errors below the 5k mark but this change was massive nonetheless and I wanted to thank you for that. :) - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 15 nëntor 2021 23:57 (CET)
- No problem :)
Most of the remaining errors would need semi automated and manual fixing. Nevertheless 95% of them can be fixed by the end of this year. ಮಲ್ನಾಡಾಚ್ ಕೊಂಕ್ಣೊ (diskutimet) 16 nëntor 2021 04:29 (CET) - I'm liking the enthusiasm! :P :) - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 16 nëntor 2021 09:07 (CET)
- We've fallen below the 5k mark on the category that had the most errors. This is really outstanding because it may be the first time in years we deal with lint errors and are close to a complete solution for them. I've notified the community in the village pump while adding that the next notice will be when we hit the 2.5k mark. - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 21 nëntor 2021 13:30 (CET)
- Hello! It's been nearly 1 month since the last time we talked. Do you think we can have another run in the missing end tag category to try and hit that 2.5k mark there so we can go on with the notification at our VP? It's good to keep the initiative going without letting it get stale. - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 13 dhjetor 2021 12:22 (CET)
- Hi @Klein Muçi, I have been a bit busier in real life than before, so haven't had time for Wiki Shqip. Most of the errors that can be fixed by bot in automated mode have already been fixed. The remaining errors need to be fixed on a case by case basis. There is nothing more I can do using my bot other than editing manually from the bot account. I think the Albanian community can fix the remaining errors on their own. I will try to help from my bot account whenever I can. ಮಲ್ನಾಡಾಚ್ ಕೊಂಕ್ಣೊ (diskutimet) 13 dhjetor 2021 15:55 (CET)
- Oh, okay then. Don't worry. I wrote because I started dealing again with them personally. If you think you can't work anymore in a bot manner, it's okay. Thank you for your service! It has been of great help, as the lowered number shows. :)) - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 13 dhjetor 2021 18:06 (CET)
Hello!
Can you help me with more information in regard to this new lint error that was added recently? Take a look at our main page with the LintHint tool enabled. I believe those errors are coming from this page but not sure why. I tried adding "alt=" but that didn't solve the problem. - Klein Muçi (diskutimet) 19 janar 2022 14:21 (CET)
