Dexbot 10[edit]

Operator: Ladsgroup (talk · contribs · SUL · edit count · logs · page moves · block log · rights log · ANI search)

Time filed: 13:23, Saturday, January 7, 2017 (UTC)

Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic

Programming language(s): python

Source code available: Super simple based on pywikibot. I'll put in gist or somewhere if you want to.

Function overview: Changing old jstor to new style.

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): Special:PermaLink/758550969#can your bot do this

Edit period(s): Once, and then once in a month.

Estimated number of pages affected: 2,000

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes

Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): Yes

Function details: Copy-pasting from the discussion page: A few years ago JSTOR deprecated the SICI interface. So, all these links.jstor.org links now point to a www.jstor.org/stable/##### url. Could Dexbot convert these (This would require a query to jstor, so that might be beyond its ability).

One edit has been done and it looks good. Once this is approved and all are converted, I will manually convert the few that the bot cannot do (ie. they resolve to more than one journal article and you have to manually pick the right one) AManWithNoPlan (talk) 16:47, 7 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bertrand_Russell&type=revision&diff=759142295&oldid=758638670 this appears to have overrun a pipe. AManWithNoPlan (talk) 03:03, 10 January 2017 (UTC) Pipes and }} issues.

@AManWithNoPlan: That's strange because I use pywikibot's textlib to get urls, I fixed it in my code. Ladsgroup^overleg 15:44, 14 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
