Commons:Bots/Work requests
This is a page for requesting work to be done by a bot. This is an appropriate place to simply put ideas for bots. However be aware of various tools available to all users which can be used to accomplish the work without the need for a bot:

Change an image with another of the same thing, but better[edit]
Eyo! Please change File:VAM Nisaba Lagasch.jpg with File:Vessel fragment depicting the goddess Nisaba (?) and an inscription from Entemena, ruler of Lagash, circa 2430 BC, chlorite, Pergamon Museum, Berlin.jpg Neoclassicism Enthusiast (talk) 20:00, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Neoclassicism Enthusiast: Do you want to swap filenames between File:VAM Nisaba Lagasch.jpg and File:Vessel fragment depicting the goddess Nisaba (?) and an inscription from Entemena, ruler of Lagash, circa 2430 BC, chlorite, Pergamon Museum, Berlin.jpg, or do you want to just modify the 21 uses on 17 projects? Please use internal links. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 20:16, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
- Just modify the uses Neoclassicism Enthusiast (talk) 20:30, 8 December 2023 (UTC)

Change my photos to creator-template and ISOdate[edit]
Hello, I had uploaded over 9.569 images. Now I want the Creator:Stefan Kühn in all of this images. All images could found normally in the c:Category:Photographs by User:Stefan Kühn or a subcategory. Optional, can you add in the date-field of all images the Template:ISOdate like {{ISOdate|2010-08-18 08:15:30}}. Many Thanks. --sk (talk) 10:34, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Stefan Kühn: The first part of this looks like it could be fulfilled with the use of {{Creator}}. Do you have a file description page that the bot maintainer could use as a prototype of how such pages should look? — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 13:23, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Jeff G. Simple replace. Like this change. --sk (talk) 13:27, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Stefan Kühn: Doing…. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 13:59, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Stefan Kühn: Done, Creator:Stefan Kühn now has 9,887 transclusions. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 22:56, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Jeff G.: Many thanks. --sk (talk) 10:53, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

Template:Location for Category:Stadtbildfotografie Dresden[edit]
Several thousand images of the city of Dresden are available thanks to Stadtarchiv Dresden, photographer Albrecht Voss and @Stefan Kühn: . Could a bot add the position data from the EXIF to each file (Template:Location)? Thanks, --Polarlys (talk) 17:03, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
Shutdown of Computer-aided tagging: Mass revert needed[edit]
As agreed in this now-archived discussion, we need a bot, please, to revert edits made through the Computer-aided tagging tool, with an explanatory edit summary.
Can someone advise, please? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:11, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
- Hi, I actually looked into this while the request was still open. What I'm already failing to find a way in any of the APIs to get the 1'500'000 revisions tagged with the Special:Tags for computer-aided tagging. --Schlurcher (talk) 20:47, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Mike Peel: Surely the developers behind SDC can handle this. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 23:52, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Schlurcher: If you run bots on Toolforge, you can make direct queries to replica databases, so you can use the following: (don’t forget to add a
SELECT ct_rev_id FROM change_tag WHERE ct_tag_id = (SELECT ctd_id FROM change_tag_def WHERE ctd_name = 'computer-aided-tagging');
LIMIT
clause to the outerSELECT
while testing!). —Tacsipacsi (talk) 00:10, 20 December 2023 (UTC)- @Tacsipacsi: Thanks that worked: https://quarry.wmcloud.org/query/78860 With this list, I would know how to proceed. However, I may find the time to do so only next year. Maybe someone else can pick up. --Schlurcher (talk) 10:57, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
- Making progress. Please see the expected actions for the first 100 revids (all claims without errors would be removed). @RZuo: : You suggested to use autopatrolled and above as a quality indicatior. Even on this limited set it does not seem to work. Please have a look. --Schlurcher (talk) 22:38, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
- I'm currently thinking, exceptions from this mass removal should be restricted to people that regularly check other editors: i.e. administrators, patrollers, and rollbackers but not autopatrollers. --Schlurcher (talk) 18:06, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Schlurcher: That looks like a reasonable avenue of research. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 18:10, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

- @Schlurcher: File:Patockova hora.jpg has no logs and is a redlink; special:diff/375252314 instead refers to File:Patočkova hora.jpg. — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 23:58, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks Jeff for highligthing. The internal processing did use the correct title, only the package I used to generate above table did not handle the character correctly. [now manually corrected] --Schlurcher (talk) 11:33, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Schlurcher: You're welcome. I'm glad you got it sorted. So what is the 6th column? — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 15:32, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
- The variable for the sixth column will contain the error messages of the actual edit api call. As this was not the goal yet, it's empty. --Schlurcher (talk) 18:03, 29 December 2023 (UTC)
