G13 soon sorting is only set to update twice a week (I'm not even sure if that page is useful given the sheer size), the one seems to have run today.

Thanks for the information, SD0001. I was just told about these pages by MusikAnimal because I couldn't understand why Wikipedia:Database reports/Stale drafts has been coming up empty for the past few weeks when it used to list hundreds of stale drafts every morning about 1 am (my time zone). Since your bot has been active, editors have been preemptively going in and deleting drafts when they reach the six month period, without waiting for the database report each morning. So, I've been doing it as well for the past 2 days.
It's confusing that there are now 4 or 5 pages/categories that list stale (or soon-to-be-stale) drafts and none of them are entirely complete as far as I can see. Since I've been looking at the lists for the past two days, I found that none of them list the exact same stale drafts and other editors keep tagging drafts that are older than 6 months that aren't on any of the lists! I guess it's because there are so many thousands of drafts at this point and user sandboxes, too. It's amazing that they can even categorize them all. Thank you again for cluing me in on the updating frequency.

I've been meaning to take a look again at these reports and make them more useful for people seeking to rescue worthy stuff. I've been told User:SDZeroBot/G13 Watch has been useful because of the excerpts. The plan is to add excerpts on both these reports, and reduce the scope of G13 soon to only include pages whose last edit date falls in a period of one day which is about (6 months minus 1 week) before current. – SD0001 (talk) 07:29, 28 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-09-28T07:29:00.000Z","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-SD0001-2020-09-28T07:29:00.000Z-Liz-2020-09-27T20:39:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->
And I now notice here I wrote the same comment on this talk page and your user page! My apologies for being repetitive.
Since you are checking this bot's talk page, we've started this conversation and I've been looking through stale drafts recently, maybe I'll be more specific about what my comment above refers to: Why does Category:AfC G13 eligible soon submissions and User:SDZeroBot/G13 eligible sorting have different stale draft contents? Over the past couple of days, I keep finding G13 eligible pages that your bot has found that aren't listed in the G13 category. Are you drawing from different sources of data? It seems like the two pages would have similar content, with the category being larger and this specific bot page just listing drafts that had just expired from their six month period. Thanks for any insight you can offer.

Oh, I hope this will be considered "constructive criticism" but I have a comment about User:SDZeroBot/G13 eligible sorting. In the past hour, it just updated and posted eligible G13 stale drafts but it includes stale drafts that were "saved" during the day by an editor who made an edit to the page. So, instead of the last edit on some of the drafts being March 29, 2020, it is September 29, 2020. This is only happening to a few of them. But they still all get listed as eligible so I'm not sure what the "cutoff" time is for the bot to check their editing history. This is another reason not to use batch delete because it's necessary to check the edit history of each draft listed to see if it has been edited today.
Any way, sorry for all of the feedback...I usually work with categories but en.wiki has had a big lag time and the database report for empty categories hasn't been updated in a few days so I've been looking at drafts instead.

Liz, the AfC categories don't contain any drafts which don't have any AFC templates on them (which is technically natural since some template needs to be there that can apply the category). Anyway, a couple of days back I set up User:SDZeroBot/G13 eligible which IMO is a better format. I see now that User:SDZeroBot/G13 eligible sorting has stopped updating – oops, that was inadvertent, sorry if anyone was still looking at it. But I went ahead and stopped it for real to reduce the redundancy we already have (category, DB report, etc).
it just updated and posted eligible G13 stale drafts but it includes stale drafts that were "saved" during the day by an editor That must have been due to database replag. I amended the code so that it no longer relies solely on the database (which may be lagging), so this should not recur. Thanks for pointing that out. Any way, sorry for all of the feedback lol!

The earlier version of User:SDZeroBot/G13 soon, where you could sort by date, was more useful to me than ordering them on the list by quality...I'm not even sure how you or a bot can quantify/judge draft quality, that is really quite impressive. The quality aspect is more useful to editors working in the AFC area, rather than my work which is deleting expired or inappropriate content (vandalism, duplicates, tests, spam). I hope editors in AFC are aware of your wonderful new pages and that it helps them prioritize their limited time to review drafts. What you've put together is really remarkable and I wish I understood more of the intelligence behind the topic sorting.

Doesn't the header of the page basically tell how it's done? It's nothing fancy – put the ones tagged as {{promising draft}} at the top, ones which are rejected, too short, declined as "blank" or as "test" at the bottom. Among the remaining, the sourced ones are put above the unsourced ones. Further tie-breakers include the ORES quality prediction (which uses machine learning, but it's an imperfect model that turns up lot of weird results), and then the page size (bigger ones come higher up). – SD0001 (talk) 12:07, 15 October 2020 (UTC) Now that I think of it, I can think of another metric which could be used in the future – the proportion of unreliable/deprecated/blacklisted sources used on the page, which can be detected using the way User:Headbomb/unreliable does it. – SD0001 (talk) 12:11, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-10-15T12:07:00.000Z","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-SD0001-2020-10-15T12:07:00.000Z-Liz-2020-10-06T00:33:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->
On User:SDZeroBot/G13 soon sorting page, could you make a list for the parent categories like Culture and Geography/Regions like you have for the STEM category (that includes all of the STEM subcategories)? It makes it much easier to browse when there is one large, parent category that contains all of the subcategories in it.
I realize that this is opposite to your original purpose of sorting G13s by topic but I'm using the page to look for expiring stale drafts in a more general way. If you don't want to incorporate this change, I understand. All of the new SDZeroBot pages are something that we are all getting used to.

Well the page is already more than 1MB in size, duplicating the entries in the parent categories would turn up the size over 2MB, essentially rendering the page unnavigable.

Another comment, I'm not sure you'll see, is there is a problem with User:SDZeroBot/G13 Watch. For example, it posts at 00:00 UTC on Oct. 11, drafts that expire on Oct. 11th. But by posting the drafts that expire at the end of the day that they expire, the drafts posted had been deleted when it was posted. So, it just contained a list of links to already deleted drafts.
If you could post, on Oct. 11th, the drafts that are due to expire on Oct. 12th, it would be more useful. Thank you.

Yes that's what G13 Watch is supposed to do. It is list of pages which have already been nominated for G13; used by a few folks like Calliopejen.

Something going on at Draft:Bamtang Games, the bot has thrice edited the date today. The first and third edits were wrong, as that's the date it was moved from draft to main.

FWIW it was moved from mainspace to draftspace both in July and August. The repeated edits were because the bot first processed the July moves for trial. Later when approved for full run, it processed the August moves then the July moves. It was set up to replace any existing tag because there existed a lot of wrongly dated tags added by another editor. In any case, this task finished many days back so obviously this won't happen again. – SD0001 (talk) 06:55, 26 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-10-26T06:55:00.000Z","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-SD0001-2020-10-26T06:55:00.000Z-Ferret-2020-10-20T00:20:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

DGG, the bot's task (which was one-time) has long since finished, there's nothing to be gained in blocking it now. Please unblock. Regarding the issue at hand, I replied at WT:WPAFC#Category:AfC_G13_eligible_soon_submissions. There's no way to restore the category itself to how it was before. But a list of titles that would have been on the category are available at User:SD0001/AfC G13 eligible Oct 2020 or special:permalink/984263470.

Hi, I got notified of an AfD discussion (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Rodney Ferguson) in which I was the one who initiated. It's true that I expanded the article before nominating, but it doesn't make much sense to leave a talk page notification for the nominator.

Hello, SD0001,
Once again, SDZeroBot has a hard time handling months that have a different number of days. Tonight, User:SDZeroBot/G13 eligible, which usually has 0 titles listed, has over 400 drafts it identifies as "eligible" for deletion. Except that they are not eligible, they'll be eligible on September 1st or September 2nd. But SDZeroBot thinks that every month has the same number of days. Because February had 28 days but August has 31 days, it is identifying drafts as being eligible before they are because, I guess, it thinks that August 30 is actually September 2.
This is less of a problem now than it is in February when there are fewer days and the bot just skips daily reports for three days in order to catch up. Then, DGG, who regularly scans the report to rescue promising drafts, is frustrated because SDZeroBot just jumps three days ahead and omits those days so he misses three days worth of draft reports and the drafts are simply deleted by patrolling admins.
This is a regular problem and has been since the bot's operation started a year ago. Since most months have 30 or 31 days, editors and admins who work with the G13 Eligible Soon list just adjust to the bot's quirks. But when there is a three day difference, this becomes a larger problem. I hate to nag you about this, because I'm so grateful for the work that the bot does, but you really need to find a way to fix this aberration, maybe by asking other technically-minded editors and admins who work with bots. If any of them have this talk page on their Watchlist and have any ideas for solutions, it would be greatly appreciated before we get to the end of September and this happens again. Thank you.

This seems to be a new issue. If I recall correctly, we were only having calendar-related issues with User:SDZeroBot/G13 soon. G13 eligible is more simple in that it just lists anything that's >6 months old. It doesn't assume anything about the number of days in a month (beyond what the programming language internally does).The issue appears to stem from JavaScript's datetime computation: > new Morebits.date() Morebits.date {_d: Tue Aug 31 2021 16:37:54 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)}> new Morebits.date().subtract(6, 'months') Morebits.date {_d: Wed Mar 03 2021 16:38:08 GMT+0530 (India Standard Time)} // ???The 2nd result is bizarre.Thankfully, in SQL the date math makes more sense (quarry:query/58105):> SELECT NOW() 2021-08-31T11:13:31> SELECT NOW() - INTERVAL 6 MONTH 2021-02-28T11:13:46I'll shift the six-month-subtraction from the JS part to the SQL part.

Well, Explicit and I primarily work with the G13 Soon page although I check the G13 Eligible page daily in case we miss anything. It looks like SDZeroBot stopped reports yesterday and then started up again today. We already had a G13 Soon report for March 9th and then it started up today with a report for March 7th. It was actually nice to be a few days ahead, I know DGG probably appreciated this since he reviews the report ahead of the six month expiration date. Right now though, SDZeroBot has issued 3 reports for March 7th, this one on 8/28, and two today that look identical. Should we use the latest one because you say the dates were off by a day? Just ignore the previous March 7, March 8 and March 9 reports and then the bot will resume with a new March 8th report today?
I appreciate your speedy response to my query. The bot is reliable 99% of the time so when there is a glitch, it stands out. Thanks again!

There is something odd about that March 7th G13 Soon report, there are typically about ~200 drafts that expire daily and that list is over 400 drafts! Maybe there was a lot of AFC activity and drafts reviewed that particular day but it sure stands out. I rarely have seen a list with 400+ drafts, maybe once or twice before.

We already had a G13 Soon report for March 9th and then it started up today with a report for March 7th That again arises from the date math. From now on, this will not occur - rather, the bot will skip create multiple reports in a day or none at all, to keep pace with the calendar. That is, there would no report on next year's Sep 1 and Sep 2, and multiple reports at the end of Feb / start of March. So that there is exactly one report for each calendar day the drafts were last edited. Should we use the latest one because you say the dates were off by a day? They should all be correct, though yeah the latest one will have less entries as it skips the ones that have been edited in the last few days. – SD0001 (talk) 04:32, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-09-02T04:32:00.000Z","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-SD0001-2021-09-02T04:32:00.000Z-Liz-2021-09-01T23:12:00.000Z","replies":["c-DGG-2021-09-03T06:02:00.000Z-SD0001-2021-09-02T04:32:00.000Z"]}}-->
There are two reason I work ahead of the date.one is so I have a chance for some life in the intervals, or if not life outside WP, at least life for somthing else in WP, by taking a day or two away from the list; the other is that I only work with articles that have at least some possibilities, and they need at least a little thinking. I can delete at the rate of 2 or 3 a minute as fast as the script will run, but I cannot think at that speed. I try to catch two things for articles in fields I can handle--ones that were misreviewed and actually show or could easily show notability , and drafts which were never even looked at. Most of those are because they seem boring, but some are because they seem difficult. I hope now that we have temporarily caught up with the afc backlog, that 5 months from now, there will start being many fewer of these. (fwiw, as others have also found, reviewing quality during the rapid catchup drive seems to be the same quality as ordinary. I expected otherwise, and am vey glad my prediction was wrong.).

It is extremely misleading for a bot to rate an article GA (even though such ratings are inadmissible), when that is a rating always decided by the community at the GAN process. I suggest it be removed entirely, possibly replaced by A class ratings.

Well the whole point of GA and FA recognition is going through a review in those respective venues, so there is never a need for a bot to make that evaluation, even if informally. Lists should presumably always be rated list class; Ahmad ibn Isa ibn Zayd and Black-topped pottery are perhaps B and the others are either lists or at AFD (Dark Ages (Europe)).

I suppose it would make sense to add a * mark to GA and FA ratings for clarification. The bot merely reports back whatever ratings it gets from ORES so I don't think removing it or replacing it with A-class would be appropriate. In any case, these are only used on WP:NPPSORT and WP:AFCSORT; the people who review those pages would know better than to take the predictions at face value. – SD0001 (talk) 10:54, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2022-01-10T10:54:00.000Z","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-SD0001-2022-01-10T10:54:00.000Z-Aza24-2021-12-28T05:11:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

I don't know how common my approach is, but when I send something to AfD, I would use the standard template notice only for relatively new editors. If it's a regular with experience in the area, I'd just leave a short note about the AfD, I reckon that's less impersonal. Even with new editors, it's sometimes better to go for a handwritten note, like here, where the AfD is not about deletion at all, but about redirecting or merging. Well, it turns out that instead of making things a little bit better, my approach makes them worse, because the bot will invariably come along and slap on the template anyway. – Uanfala (talk)01:41, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2022-01-10T01:41:00.000Z","author":"Uanfala","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Uanfala-2022-01-10T01:41:00.000Z-AfD_notices_when_editor_already_notified","replies":["c-SD0001-2022-01-10T11:00:00.000Z-Uanfala-2022-01-10T01:41:00.000Z"]}}-->
Hmm. I suppose it would be better for the bot to check if the talk page has a link to the AFD. It currently checks for text that looks like the standard section header for AfD notifications. So until the change is done in the bot, the nasty trick would be to place <!-- ==Nomination of [[Languages of the Indian subcontinent]] for deletion== --> on the talk page along with your message. – SD0001 (talk) 11:00, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2022-01-10T11:00:00.000Z","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-SD0001-2022-01-10T11:00:00.000Z-Uanfala-2022-01-10T01:41:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Ah I see. In that case, the QPQ check tool needs to be swapped with the DYK nominations count tool (or something similar) in the DYK toolbox.

Wouldn't it make more sense to have the Good Article counter
list the count in reverse count. In my case I have 218 Good Articles from GANs, so it would be more logical to list 218
on top of the list with the most recent Good Article received, for example John Johnson (inventor) (2022-06-17).
The first Good Article I received of Conclusion of the American Civil War (2009-03-08) should be as number 1 (not # 218).
Can the counter be programmed to facilitate this counter number in a reverse numbering? Number 1 logically should be at the bottom and the highest number (i.e. #218) at the top of the list with the most recent Good Article received.

I suspect this is a case of not recognizing an alternative AFD notification template.

Hi -- I'm working on a replacement for the GAN functions of Legobot (BRFA here) and I just noticed this page. Do you construct it by scanning the GA nominee category, or by reading WP:GAN? If the latter, would you be able to test if it works with User:ChristieBot/GAN existing format, which, if the bot is approved, will be the new contents of GAN? It's very similar to the existing format but it's not quite identical and I wanted to check that the change, if it happens, wouldn't break your code. If you build it by scanning the category, there's nothing to worry about, of course. Thanks.

Thank you for the very useful {{Database report}}. I'm working through my old Quarry queries which detect various anti-patterns in Wikipedia pages, and setting up those which are still relevant to run weekly. Everything is running smoothly and I've already fixed plenty of articles as a result. One suggestion: would it be sensible and easy to add a little technical information such as query duration? I'll be using this to tweak the run frequency (e.g. change quick jobs to daily and expensive ones to monthly). I can get a good estimate from Quarry, but it might highlight SQL inefficiencies for everyone's benefit. The time of last run (as in date+UTC rather than duration) might also be convenient, though it's easily obtained from page history.

@Certes Done – the bot will now write query_runtime and last_updated params to its {{database report/footer}} call. Feel free to edit that template if you want to tweak the formatting. (It would have been good to put the timestamp just below the update button, but that area is created by the main template whose params are harder for bot to modify.) – SD0001 (talk) 05:53, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20221120055300","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-SD0001-20221120055300-Certes-20221119120400","replies":[]}}-->
@SD0001: This is something I have craved for a while. I am so glad you've made it! It works even better than if I'd made it myself. A couple questions:
Is it possible to specify a footer? That is, a control sequence that you can put at the end of a page, and have it not update past there? On something like Template:Signpost/Number of issues I have wrapped the whole thing in <onlyinclude> tags, so that transcluding the page just gives the number as the output, but this required some clever jiggery-pokery with the row template.
Is there a way to specify the offset from the interval? For example, if you want it to be every week, but indexed to the beginning of the month.
How often should I be running them? At Template:Signpost/Number_of_articles, for example, the number will only change once every couple of weeks when we publish... but I have it set to just run every day (because I don't want to have to manually run the thing every time I run the already-onerous publishing script). I don't want to put undue strain on the bot, though: is this an actual concern, or should I just feel free to set the interval to 1 by default? jp×g21:47, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230127214700","author":"JPxG","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-JPxG-20230127214700-The_database_report_template_kicks_ass","replies":["c-SD0001-20230128111200-JPxG-20230127214700"],"displayName":"jp"}}-->
Would it be useful to have the report written to a subpage of the page where configuration exists? That way, it can be directly transcluded. This is already possible per this thread, though not documented!
Not really, but the check on whether to update is based on SDZeroBot's last edit to the page. So if you web-trigger an update on 1st of the month, then with |interval=7, subsequent updates will take place on 8th, 15th, and so on. Though I wouldn't be opposed to having a cron-based schedule option (without support for hours and minutes as the bot processes periodic updates just once a day), eg. |cron=*/7 * *.
Since the query runtime there is just 2-3 seconds, it's totally fine. Only issue would be the edit history pollution.

In the first two cases, the GA nominee template is in a section and not on the top of the talk page as per guidelines. In the third one, {{GAnominee}} is used instead of {{GA nominee}} – this can be easily handled in the bot's code so I've pushed up a fix. – SD0001 (talk) 06:46, 12 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230312064600","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-SD0001-20230312064600-MrLinkinPark333-20230311211100","replies":[]}}-->

Same old issue. Two days without reports. I figured that SDZeroBot would skip one G13 soon report because November had 30 days while May has 31 but now it's skipped two days. I'll add that I'm also seeing issues with other bots whose reports I rely on like AnomieBOT III, HaleBot and others. Things haven't been the same since the replag on s1. Even when it got "caught up", we never saw the backlog of pages/articles that should exist after 5 days with no reports. I'm not sure that everything was restored if they just patched up a solution. Luckily, with SDZeroBot, we have a 7 day lead time so missing reports aren't a dire situation until next week but I thought I'd let you know. Many thanks!

Whew! Disaster averted. Thank you very much. Although I have noticed that the G13 lists are shorter than in the past. I guess we have fewer new editors joining the project. Or some editor has swept through the Draft space with AWB correcting commas and we'll end up with 1,000 drafts expiring over one hour sometime during the summer.

Was making use of Wikipedia:Database reports/Long pages/Talk to find long Talk pages that might benefit from archiving, but I had limited success because the report includes subpages, which may include existing archives, RfCs, etc..

Hey, the bot hasn't updated WP:AFDSORT in a while. It looks like it's trying to fill it up with more than 2MiB of data.

Yes, the issue is that this AfD includes 119 articles, each of which is supposed to appear on AFDSORT. Worse, most of these articles are sorted under multiple topics, so the nomination text is repeated 315 times.

@SD0001: For NPP sorting pages (such as this), would it be possible to separate the creator and creator edit counts into two separate columns, so that reviewers can more easily sort to find more or less experienced authors (which should nominally correlate with more or less challenging reviews)?

@Iazyges I've made it such that the creator field sorts by the edit count, rather than alphabetically. This is similar to how the class field actually sorts by the class (GA > B > C). As for splitting it into two columns, that would make the table wider - which is more of a problem nowadays as many folks are using vector-2022 which provides lesser horizontal space. – SD0001 (talk) 18:18, 15 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20231015181800","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-SD0001-20231015181800-Iazyges-20231015170500","replies":[]}}-->
When checking Pending AfC submissions and the draft I'm working on, Draft:V (programming language), I noticed it took a large dramatic drop. There were no edits of the draft, so the change seems likely the result of the algorithms used by the bot. The days in question are 27 September 2023 to 28 September 2023. I'm curious as to what could be the reasons or if it's anything to be concerned about.
Additionally, and this might not be under your area, but the "Prior AfD" listed is not to the present V language. What's linked to, is to a different programming language, from 2008. The present one in the draft is from 2019. These different languages, though sharing the same letter, need to be disconnected from each other.

Hi, I just stumbled over your GAN-counting tool and noticed that, at least for my results, the entry for Serious Sam: The First Encounter shows it as having passed GA on 1970-01-01 (0 epoch time) instead of 2023-10-30. I assume that the incorrect date is stored in some database, but I couldn't immediately find the origin.

It's a problem with the signature rather than the username itself.

I'm not sure what happened here. None of the drafts on this page showed up on the relevant User:SDZeroBot/G13 soon page for the day they should have. Things are a little off for the past few days as the editors who regularly deal with G13 drafts, me, Explicit and Hey man im josh, have not been available as much as usual. My mom is on hospice care so I work on Wikipedia when she is sleeping, Explicit, for some reason, has been absent from the project and Hey man im josh doesn't edit on the weekends. So, there has been a bit of a backlog on dealing with expiring drafts. But that's okay, they aren't urgent. But I still don't know why these drafts from Nov. 2/3 didn't show up on G13 soon page. Any ideas why they were "hidden" from us until the day after they expired?
There has been a trend though of a declining number of expiring drafts on the daily G13 soon lists (usually about ~150 drafts) but that has boomeranged in May 2024 because of a AFC backlog drive that occurred in Novembere 2023. So we are seeing higher numbers that we were a few weeks ago.
I hope you are having a good weekend.

Hello, again,
I had noticed that this G13 soon page stated that there were 338 drafts listed at the top of the page but there were clearly weren't that many drafts listed on this page. I often do a search on this page by hour (00:00, 01:00, etc.) and there was no way that 338 pages were included on this page given those numbers which were just 4 or 5 drafts/hour. Can you think of a reason why there would be 338 drafts listed at the top but not that many drafts included on the page and only show up the next day on the G13 eligible page for that date? I should say that I've only seen this kind of glitch happen a few times but it has happened occasionally so I thought I'd ask.

I just noticed that G13 eligible for this day says there are 217 drafts on the report but it only lists 5 drafts even though if you look at the page history for that day it shows a huge amount of content has been added.

Turns out that Explicit was only gone for a week so he is back on G13 patrol. But it still seems unusual that the drafts listed on those pages didn't match the counts for the page.

If you ignore all of the "road" articles, which are restored drafts, all of the 20+ drafts should have appeared on a User:SDZeroBot/G13 soon list for 6/3 but for some reason, didn't show up on the daily list. I've looked over all of these drafts and they don't seem to have much in common. Do you know what SDZeroBot would leave these drafts off of the G13 soon list? Thanks.

Please see this error message, which started appearing every once in a while a couple of weeks ago. It was happening all the time for a day or so, and then it mostly fixed itself.

@SD0001:, likewise on Wikipedia:Database reports/Uncategorized templates today, which made the table on Wikipedia:Database reports break. Manually hitting Update Table Now opens the toolforge page as normal, but then it spins endlessly.

I actually came here to whine about the same thing.

It was the unbalanced table tags in this version, which shouldn't happen. Not that I can think of a good way to fix it: the opening table tag is in Wikipedia:Database reports/Uncategorized templates/Header, which - correctly - only gets transcluded on the report page if the query is successful. I haven't experimented much with the header/row templates that {{database report}} supports, so maybe there's a better way to do it.Anyway, the reason this broke WP:DBR is because {{DBR row}} gets its "last updated" column by transcluding the report, with the expectation that the report page has a timestamp stuck inside a <onlyinclude> tag pair. Which is as horrifying as it sounds, but there's really no better way to do it - there's a magic word to get the timestamp of an arbitrary page, but it won't update unless the page it's used on is edited. The template can deal with reports that don't have that onlyinclude'd timestamp, or even most misformattings, but apparently can't handle misnested tables. —Cryptic20:57, 16 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240916205700","author":"Cryptic","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Cryptic-20240916205700-88.97.195.160-20240916184500","replies":["c-SD0001-20240918170200-Cryptic-20240916205700"]}}-->
Setting skip_table=y and using header_template and footer_template should probably work. The current setup is too complex for me to understand.I think H:LST would be better than the onlyinclude tag pair which is indeed horrific – in case of unexpected input, nothing would transclude with LST rather than everything. Also, using REVISIONTIMESTAMP does register a dependency in templatelinks – so the page it's used on will get purged when the other one is edited. – SD0001 (talk) 17:02, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240918170200","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-SD0001-20240918170200-Cryptic-20240916205700","replies":["c-Cryptic-20240919014100-SD0001-20240918170200"]}}-->
I couldn't get REVISIONTIMESTAMP to update on its own when I experimented with it - purging the page didn't work, and IIRC even null-editing it didn't. Transcluding a section would work better, yes, but migrating to it isn't worth coordinating with all the other bots, some of which are effectively unmaintained. This should keep the main table from breaking again; supporting {{DBR row}}'s foibles isn't worth the effort either. —Cryptic01:41, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240919014100","author":"Cryptic","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Cryptic-20240919014100-SD0001-20240918170200","replies":["c-Redrose64-20240919062200-Cryptic-20240919014100"]}}-->
@Cryptic:{{REVISIONTIMESTAMP}}, like the other page revision data variables, gets its value from the most recent entry in the page history. Therefore, it is only updated if an entry is added to the page history - a true WP:NULLEDIT won't do that, and a purge certainly won't. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 06:22, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240919062200","author":"Redrose64","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-Redrose64-20240919062200-Cryptic-20240919014100","replies":[]}}-->
While pondering some arcane issues, it occurred to me that it might be possible and/or desirable to use database report templates for heavy lifting (e.g. as a foundation for other bots, or even for webapps elsewhere). This raises some vague security issues, e.g. if the page is vandalized the whole thing goes kablooey. Luckily, being a genius, I realized that this is precisely why WP:TPE exists. Would it be possible to give this bot TPE perms such that sensitive DBR pages could be TE-protected and the bot could roam happily? jp×g🗯️01:14, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240707011400","author":"JPxG","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-JPxG-20240707011400-TPE?","replies":["c-SD0001-20240707080000-JPxG-20240707011400"],"displayName":"jp"}}-->
I think the other bots and webapps would do some validation to ensure the data looks as expected. The bot can edit through ECP protection which I think should be enough, especially if the bot-updated data is being transcluded from another hidden-away page. From what I've seen extendedconfirmed editors don't go randomly messing around in project or template namespaces. I'd prefer to see the first such vandalism to occur at ECP so it can be used as a justification for TPE. – SD0001 (talk) 08:00, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240707080000","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-SD0001-20240707080000-JPxG-20240707011400","replies":[]}}-->

Howdy,
You recently left me a note on my talk page about Armenian–Azerbaijani cultural relations, linking to this Xtools page and saying that I had been a significant contributor. Xtools is, for some reason, attributing 40% of the page's content to me. This representation is incorrect; my contributions were to tag and remove copyvio, but the website appears to simply attribute all content that was revdel'd to the individual who made the next undeleted revision.
I'm not sure if there is anything you can do on your end, but the data for your notification pipeline does appear to have a (likely systematic) error.

Triggered a run manually. Issue was because of WP:VPT#Server lag. – SD0001 (talk) 11:19, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241028111900","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-SD0001-20241028111900-Mccapra-20241028050500","replies":[]}}-->
I saw this diff today and was wondering if it might need a fix in the bot's code to avoid peppering linter errors in various places. Low priority though.

Looks like the bot should either remove paragraph breaks or put each paragraph in its own <small> tag. – SD0001 (talk) 13:54, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241107135400","author":"SD0001","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-SD0001-20241107135400-Novem_Linguae-20241106215700","replies":["c-Jonesey95-20241108134800-SD0001-20241107135400"]}}-->
The bot could also use {{smalldiv}} or a div tag equivalent instead of <small>...</small>. I can do a sample edit if one is needed for demonstration. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:48, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241108134800","author":"Jonesey95","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Jonesey95-20241108134800-SD0001-20241107135400","replies":["c-Novem_Linguae-20241108184600-Jonesey95-20241108134800"]}}-->
Another approach might be to replace \n with {{pb}} or <br />. –Novem Linguae (talk) 18:46, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241108184600","author":"Novem Linguae","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Novem_Linguae-20241108184600-Jonesey95-20241108134800","replies":[]}}-->
