Hi ValterVB,
Can you stop the batches on Special:Contributions/QuickStatementsBot by User:Freakymovie. It seems to be an uncoordinated effort by that user making us loose information.
Topic on User talk:ValterVB
Blocked due to being unable to stop the batches, will notify Magnus.
Thanks. Can we roll it back as well? I'm not sure if the batch deleted references as well. Wonder who the account belongs to.
I can't revert, as the edits are mixed with other batches. Maybe someone with more bot knowledge can.
Maybe the other batches could just be re-run afterwards.
Sorry, I went to eat ...

Most batches today seem to be by this user. 1130 by Magnus will need re-starting anyways. 1137 was fairly short. I can't load others.
It really needs a filter to see only edit of a single batch...
It seems to have started with batch 1132 on 2017-10-04 13:43:50.
We can roll back anything from this and I can notify the people who created other batches afterwards.
I have stopped the batches in the database, you can unblock. The batches 1148 and 1148 by Freakymovie have edited items

Note there were 40K edits by Freakymovie before that, in two batches, which completed.
Every admin should be able to stop individual batches. I can't test it because I'm not an admin on Wikidata.
There are six batches by that editor that need to be rolled back:
https://tools.wmflabs.org/quickstatements/#mode=batches&user=Freakymovie
Maybe we just roll back the bot and then re-run the other batches.
It would be good if you and I could stop batches as well.
8 not 6 batches
Magnus, I have tried to stop the batch, but right after I stopped it, the batch is restarted, probably user restart it or something don't work. Maybe need a block not a stop.
Could we role it back now? This way other people can use it afterwards.
If you mean unblock QuickStatementsBot, Sjoerddebruin already done it.
Roll-back the edits by QuickStatementsBot after 2017-10-04 13:43:50
I think it's an admin only option of MediaWiki.
Can we please limit that in some way? I can get you the items edited by individual batches. Rolling back all edits would be rather unfortunate, like deleting the wiki to make sure it's free of vandalism...
I think the 8 batches edited 100000 items. The other batches only has a few 1000. You can easily re-run those. Isn't it?
Could a Wikidata admin please go here and paste me the JavaScript debug console output? Thanks!
Got it, thanks.
If we agree, ValterVB, would you do the roll-back?
Jura1, I agree, but I can't do it, or at least not before next Saturday. During the week I haven't a free Internet connection, and this evenig I have not enough time.
I think it's quick with Special:Nuke. I think 200000 as limit should do.
Special:Nuke only works for new items/pages.
oh .. Sorry about that.
I started with smartrollback and went up to (around)
Magnus would obviously need to redo some of his batches.
It would be helpful if it was easier to just roll-back one or the other batch. KrBot can undo most of its edits fairly easily.
Could you stop the bot/batches once more and block the user? It seems they continue.
Stop this batch don't work. so I blocked QuickStatementsBot for 24 hours.@Freakymovie: Can you stop the batch and find consensus?
If I recall correctly, the users needs to be blocked to avoid that they place new batches.
@Magnus Manske: could you sort out the batch-blocking?
Now that last weeks mess still needs fixing, more is added.
Maybe we should place some limit to QuickStatements based on the number of edits users have done. Letting newbie editors do mass removals seems asking for problems.
Probably for batch mode is necessary use a list of authorized users. Jura, you say that we must block the user, but a block here block the user on QuickStatements?
I recall Magnus writing that if the user is blocked QuickStatements gets blocked, but I might be mistaken.
I fixed about 90-95% of film related edits.
What can we do to prevent the user from breaking stuff in the future?
I think that the only solution is what I said yesterday: for batch mode is necessary use a list of authorized users. Alternatively a block of the user in Wikidata must block batch of the user.
Can you stop the user?
Jura1, in working day I have some problem to respond quickly. It's better if you add request in WD:AN
Can you stop the bot? It's working on movies again.
Answer in WD:AN. I don't know what to do....
I think the QuickStatement bot needs to be blocked.
(to stop the batch).
The user, just to prevent them from placing more batches.
