So9qBot (talk • contribs • new items • new lexemes • SUL • Block log • User rights log • User rights • xtools)
Operator: So9q (talk • contribs • logs)
Task/s:
- Add first line (P1922) with the first line of the paper to all scientific papers which has a full text link or where the abstract is available.
Code: None written yet
Function details:
- Using QLever, search for scientific articles with full work available at URL (P953) and without first line (P1922)
- For each paper, lookup using the REST API to see if first line (P1922) is still missing (QLever has stale data based on the latest dump)
- Download the abstract using a stable identifier or pdf based on the link or TeX source and process it with e.g. s2orc-doc2json or similar software.
- Extract the incipit
- Add to wikidata without a reference
Note: This could add >10M+ statements over time to Wikidata --So9q (talk) 08:27, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
Discussion
editQuestions:
- Should I add a reference to the incipit?
- With a retrieved date only in case it is from the pdf?
- With the URL if based on a database of abstracts like semantic scholar?
- Comment I am not sure I understand what the first line would add over the likely more informative title? Can you explain what we gain with this? --Egon Willighagen (talk) 08:52, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment What is a concrete application that would make use of this data? It seems not very useful to me to copy this data over into Wikidata without understanding why we should have a copy. --LydiaPintscher (talk) 13:21, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment I also don't see the purpose of this - and I'm not sure even what "first line" means for a scientific publication. The first line of the abstract? The first line of the actual article not counting header material like authors, affiliations, abstract, etc.? The full abstract could be useful but these may often be too large (and also subject to copyright issues). Or the article conclusions, but again those tend to be in the middle of the text when you consider acknowledgements and reference sections etc. So - I think this is hard to define and doesn't seem useful.

QichwaBot (talk • contribs • new items • new lexemes • SUL • Block log • User rights log • User rights • xtools)
Operator: Elwinlhq (talk • contribs • logs)
Task/s: Creating wikidata lexemes for the Quechua languages
Code: lexeme_upload.py describes the code for creating lexemes for the quechua languages based on a list extracted from the Qichwabase, which is a Wikibase.cloud instance of Quechua lexemes.
Function details: The tasks carried out by the bot include mainly the creation of Lexemes for the Quechua Languages based on the Qichwabase. The lexemes were already modelled according to Wikidata Lexemes model.
A small subset of the lexemes were already imported into Wikidata using the lexeme_upload.py with the support of Kristbaum (talk • contribs • logs). Here is one example of a Quechua Lexeme: aparquy/aparquy (L1322219).
Afterwords, a pronunciation audio was added to the lexemes, with the support of the LinguaLibre tool.
Now, I would like to continue this process, by continuing creating Lexemes, so the pronunciation audio for them can be recorded.
Thanks for your support and understanding.

Operator: Dwer (talk • contribs • logs) (Research Coordinator of Structure and Transformation in the Vocabulary of the Egyptian Language (Q122750399) project.)
Task/s: The bot is to create and update Hieroglyphic Ancient Egyptian and Coptic lexemes and ancient Egyptian text artefact items. It is also to maintain links to the Thesaurus Linguae Aegyptiae project via approved properties.
Code: to be done.
Function details:
- Upload and update basic lexical items (lexemes) of the Hieroglyphic Ancient Egyptian language (ISO "egy"), like 𓍿𓊃𓅓𓃡/ṯzm (L184933).
- Upload and update basic lexical items (lexemes) of the Coptic language (ISO "cop"), like ⲟⲩⲁ (L700695).
- Upload and update Wikidata items for ancient Egyptian text artefacts (specific papyri, ostraca, stelae, ...), like Papyrus Harris I (Q1578003).
- Upload and update Wikidata items for ancient Egyptian textual works (e.g., Amduat, Teachings of Ptahhotep, ...), like The Satire of the Trades (Q616182).
- Add Thesaurus Linguae Aegyptiae ID properties to respective Wikidata items:

Task/s: phab:T370842 and meta:Global reminder bot
Code: https://github.com/Leader-board/userrights-reminder-bot, though this is under development
Function details: See the above phabricator task. It should be noted that
- I'm submitting near-identical requests on multiple wikis, and
- I do not expect this bot to run that much (if at all) on Wikidata and will not require a bot flag; however, Wikidata:Bots explicitly mention that approval is needed (and the botflag set which I find unnecessary and even a bad idea), and
- Here's a test edit (the text will be generalised for Wikidata). Users will be able to opt-out from this using a central page on Meta.
P.S: I also noticed that it says that bot "should never be used to make non-automated edits in the user talk namespace" which my bot will do - not sure if there's a way out of that.
--Leaderboard (talk) 18:17, 21 August 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose no thanks, see also Wikidata_talk:Bots#Is_a_bot_flag_required_for_a_bot_that_is_expected_to_make_very_few_edits_(if_any)?. Just run it on meta. Multichill (talk) 15:39, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Multichill: I'm confused - just to be clear, are you suggesting that I message users about Wikidata on Meta? Leaderboard (talk) 18:05, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
- Can you link examples of temporary rights on Wikidata? Sjoerd de Bruin (talk) 16:34, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Sjoerddebruin: [1], [2] and [3]. As noted above,
- Wikidata does not make that much use of temporary rights (the flooder right is automatically ignored), and
- many (but not all) of them are IPBE - some communities prefer that the bot exclude them. In that case it will run rarely, like in the case of the third example I shared above.

- I'd prefer that you go for a global bot account. --Lymantria (talk) 13:00, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
- @Lymantria But global bots are disabled on this wiki (see Meta:Special:WikiSets/14 where Wikidata is in the opt-out set). If there is consensus from the community that global bots should be allowed to run on Wikidata, that's fine by me as well. To reiterate, I don't even need a bot flag in the first place, just approval to run this bot (without one). Leaderboard (talk) 16:29, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

UmisBot (talk • contribs • new items • new lexemes • SUL • Block log • User rights log • User rights • xtools)
Operator: Stuchalk (talk • contribs • logs)
Task/s: This bot will add string representations of units of measurement to units of measurement Wikidata pages.
Code: The Python project on the "Units of Measurement Interoperability Service" (UMIS), that this bot will support/enable, is at https://github.com/usnistgov/nist_umis .
Function details: String representations of different units of measurement are being aligned to allow translation between different unit representation systems. As the developer of the UMIS, I have concluded that Wikidata is the best place to organize/align unit representation strings. Once available at nist.gov later this year, the UMIS website will offer additional functionality to enable users to programmatically translate between unit of representation systems, and additional functionality is planned. There are already Wikidata properties for some of the unit representation systems (e.g. QUDT) and additional ones will be requested. This is my first bot permission request so if more info is needed please let me know. --Stuart Chalk (talk) 16:44, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

Task/s: I want to get approval for a bot with translation admin rights that will automatically mark pages for translations if and only if the latest version is identical to the version that is already in the translation system, i.e. only pages with no "net" changes in the pending edits.
Code: not yet
Function details: I am filing almost identical requests for bot approval on a bunch of wikis, and figured I should put some of the details in a central location. Please see meta:User:DannyS712/TranslationBot for further info. --DannyS712 (talk) 03:09, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

- what json files? we need more details BrokenSegue (talk) 15:31, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- We are students from TH Köln tasked with automating the process of updating data for scientists on Wikidata. Our objective includes verifying the presence of researchers and creating entries if they are not already listed. Similarly, we extend this process to projects, such as those found in GEPRIS, where these researchers have been involved. Subsequently, our goal is to establish connections between these projects and the respective researchers.
- Our JSON files contain comprehensive data necessary for expanding information on researchers (QID, name) and their associated projects (project name, project ID) within Wikidata. This ensures that accurate and up-to-date information is seamlessly integrated into the Wikidata ecosystem.
- This approach leverages automated tools and careful data handling to contribute valuable knowledge to the scientific community on Wikidata. IliasChoumaniBot (talk) 14:35, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Browse9ja bot (talk • contribs • new items • new lexemes • SUL • Block log • User rights log • User rights • xtools)
Operator: Browse9ja
Task/s: Automated data retrieval and updates for Browse9ja project, focusing on Nigerian and African-based information, integrating a chatbot, NLP API, knowledge graph, and machine learning model.
Code: (Not applicable, as I am using a combination of existing APIs and services)
Function details:
The Browse9ja bot is designed to perform the following tasks:
- Retrieve and update data on Wikidata related to Nigerian and African-based information - Integrate with a chatbot to provide users with accurate and up-to-date information - Utilize natural language processing (NLP) API for text analysis and understanding - Contribute to the development of a knowledge graph for African-based information - Apply machine learning models to improve data accuracy and relevance
The bot will operate under the supervision of the operator (Browse9ja) and adhere to Wikidata's policies and guidelines. --Browse9ja (talk) 02:16, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment OP has no track record of contributions either here or on any other project.
- Question Can you please give more details of how the chatbot will be integrated? Do you intend to have an LLM suggest content to add to Wikidata? Bovlb (talk) 15:37, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- Details of Chat-bot Integration as requested: My chat-bot will be integrated into the Browse9ja.com as a bot to provide users with accurate and up-to-date information related to Nigerian and African-based data on Wikidata. The integration will involve utilizing a natural language processing (NLP) API for text analysis and understanding. The Chat-bot will enable users to interact with the Browse9ja bot in a conversational manner, allowing for seamless access to information and updates on Wikidata. Additionally, the chat-bot will play a role in contributing to the development of a knowledge graph for African-based information. While the chat-bot will facilitate user interaction, the machine learning models will be applied to improve data accuracy and relevance, ensuring that the information provided is of high quality and relevance to the users.
- About LLM Content Suggestion: The chat-bot integrated with Browse9ja bot will have the capability to suggest content to add to Wikidata. Leveraging natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning models, the chat-bot will be able to analyze user queries and suggest relevant content for addition to Wikidata. This functionality aligns with the broader goal of the Browse9ja bot to automate data retrieval and updates for Nigerian and African-based information, ensuring that the information contributed to Wikidata is accurate, up-to-date, and relevant.
- Hope this clarifies my intent and would please also increase my chances for an approval.Thanks alot.

Task/s: importing financial data (assets, equity, revenue, EBIT, net profit) from openinfo.uz to entries on public Uzbek companies in Wikidata.
Code:
Function details: I have a project going with openinfo.uz which is a state-owned public portal for financial disclosures of all public Uzbek companies. All joint-stock companies and banks in Uzbekistan have to disclose their financials there by law. I have created entries for all Uzbek banks at User:Fordaemdur/Uzbek banks and would like to test imports of financial data there (Openinfo is ready to provide API for that). If successful, the bot will import financials once per quarter. Next steps would also be creating entries for all other notable public Uzbek companies, not just banks, and import financials there too. --Fordaemdur (talk) 11:14, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
- How many companies are we talking about? ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 18:57, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- @ChristianKl, currently there items on about 50 public Uzbek companies (30+ are banks) - all can be found on my userpage. I am planning on creating items for all companies listed at the Tashkent Stock Exchange, so we'll end up with about 150 companies. There are about 600 joint-stock companies in Uzbekistan and I assume at least one third of them is notable. The test will be run on few companies - a mix of banks and corporates, and I don't expect more than 100 edits on a test run. If the test run is successful, the bot will be occupied with populating these items that i'm manually creating rn (checking notability for each individual entry before creating it). Best, --Fordaemdur (talk) 19:17, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- Add:Openinfo.uz now has an entry to facilitate referencing its data: Unified Portal of Corporate Information Data (Q125505748) --Fordaemdur (talk) 19:19, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- Support adding all joint-stock companies is fine given the kind of notability rules we have. If you would want to small businesses as well, it would be a harder call whether or not to allow it. ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 11:48, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Task/s: Create items for books in National Diet Library (Q477675).
Function details: As part of WikiProject, items for each book in National Diet Library (Q477675) have to be created so files in Wikimedia Commons can link to Wikidata. The items will have properties DOI (P356), NDL Bib ID (P1054), publication date (P577), author (P50), main subject (P921) and others.

For example c:Category:人事興信録 contains multiple different editions of Q109727675 (a "work"), each edition have a different set of IDs. We should create items for each edition. In the future, the Commons category should be diffused to one for each edition which links to the edition item (instead of the current one for the work item).--GZWDer (talk) 03:17, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

Anyway, I will use written work (Q47461344) uniformly, because this information isn't in Commons. genre (P136), official website (P856), copyright status (P6216) for work item and follows (P155), followed by (P156), genre (P136), copyright holder (P3931), official website (P856) for edition item also can't be imported. has edition or translation (P747) statements also will not have any qualifiers when imported.

Hello, I want to do this for books in National Library of Spain. I see that following Wikidata rules for books, two items are needed at least, one for the written work (Q47461344) and one for each version, edition or translation (Q3331189). I created an example for this entry in datos.bne.es:
- La vida es eterna: biografía de Víctor Jara (Q124538246): written work by Mario Amorós
- La vida es eterna: biografía de Víctor Jara (Q124537888): 2023 edition of written work by Mario Amorós
Do you think they are correct? It think that adding the "(PUBLISHER, YEAR)" in the label for each edition is useful, so you can see all that info quickly in the property has edition or translation (P747) in La vida es eterna: biografía de Víctor Jara (Q124538246). But I am open for suggestions. Of course, after we define that, I will open a request for my bot. Just wanted to use this discussion so we can unify the rules for all "book bots". Emijrp (talk) 18:12, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- generally looks good to me. personally I would like to see some more identifiers (see Wikidata:WikiProject_Books e.g. Library of Congress Control Number (LCCN) (bibliographic) (P1144) or Google Books ID (P675)) though having ISBN is good. Also a genre (P136) would be nice. BrokenSegue (talk) 18:27, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- oh also the description for the edition should say it's an edition (needs to be distinct from the work's description) BrokenSegue (talk) 18:29, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- "2023 edition of book by Mario Amorós"? What about writing the Spanish title in the English label? Is that OK or should I leave it blank when book hasn't been translated? Emijrp (talk) 19:19, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- oh also the description for the edition should say it's an edition (needs to be distinct from the work's description) BrokenSegue (talk) 18:29, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
- The description for both items is that it's a "book", which is the least helpful label that could possibly be used. In Wikiproject:Books, we never use the word "book" because it could mean a work, an edition, a specific copy, a section within a work, or any of a dozen other meanings. Please do not use "book" as the description for a work or an edition; it isn't helpful and does not distinguish what it is. The data item for an edition should have "edition" in the description; not in the label. --EncycloPetey (talk) 17:18, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
- I just fixed the labels and descriptions for both items (written work and edition). Is OK now? Btw, I repeat the same question, is OK to use Spanish title as English label when work hasn't been translated? Emijrp (talk) 16:15, 19 February 2024 (UTC)

Task/s: Add DDO identifier to Danish lexemes.

Checks if there is multiple lexemes with the same lemma and lexical category in WD, if yes, it skips. Otherwise we got a match and upload is done.

- Oh, I was not aware of the WikiProject. Looks very nice and title is suggested there like Ainali did above. I'm not sure the SPARQL endpoint is needed nor desired for this task. I had a look back when I wrote this request and ditched it. Can't remember why, but this code works and is reasonably fast :) So9q (talk) 08:53, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Samoasambia, Ainali, Framawiki: I updated the code to use title. I also fixed a small bug which caused duplicate references when the script was rerunning. I also added editgroups so anyone can later undo the changes in bulk easily if needed. I'm ready to run it on all ~4000 items with CELEX id now.--So9q (talk) 21:32, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

- I don't think there's a consistent enough definition for that. For example Home Assistant (Q28957018) now does
year.month.patch
type releases so the first digit changing isn't really meaningful. - However I can filter out all packages generated from https://github.com/vemel/mypy_boto3_builder, as those are all very similar and not intended for human use directly anywyays. That cuts the total number of versions to a third (~70k) even before doing any other per-package limits. Taavi (talk) 21:15, 11 July 2023 (UTC)

Taavi (talk) 20:50, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
- Oh yes, the RPI2026F1Bot task looks somewhat similar. I'm aware of Github-wiki-bot, but there are quite a few PyPI projects that are not hosted on GitHub, and I think my code should be able to handle items with data from both and ensure the two bots don't start edit warring for example.

Task/s: Using information from Crossref:
- Add publication date to items where they are not present in Wikidata
- Fix publication dates where they are erroneous
Code: Will be using Pywikibot in a similar way as I have done previously with this bot
Function details: Previously this bot has been used to add CC licenses to items which has been successful. In March 2022 it was realised that other bots/tools were using the wrong date for publication date in Crossref. Since I am working with this dump, I will step up to try fix this issue.
A simpler task is to fill in the details for items without publications. I've created a set of 80k items and once given the go ahead I will contribute these dates.
The issue of the wrong dates is a little more complicated as there are some false positives on both sides of this, sometimes Crossref is wrong and sometimes Wikidata is wrong. I'm sure that Wikidata is wrong more often, however before doing any edits I will do some manual validation to check the prevalence of false positives. When I am fairly confident I will start editing and I'll see whether I can deprecate the existing statement, add a reason and add the new date as preferred. If not, due to limitations in Pywikibot, I'll remove the previous statement instead. --Carlinmack (talk) 14:31, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
- Support This seems useful. However I see only one example edit for this so far, maybe you should do some more just to verify it's doing what we expect? You will be using the "published" date-parts data in the Crossref json files for this? If an item already has the correct published date value will you add the reference? Maybe that should only be done if the published date doesn't already have a reference though... ArthurPSmith (talk) 18:17, 24 July 2023 (UTC)

Note: A discussion at Wikipedia about this bot took place: Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)/Archive_202#Bot_to_add_short_descriptions_to_articles_in_a_category
Task/s: UrbanBot's task is to mass-add English descriptions to items that don't have one.
Code: Main repository for UrbanBot's code Source code file for task
Function details:
1. The bot operator will first enter a category name from the English Wikipedia. This category will be used to group similar pages (items on Wikidata) which will all have the same description added to them.
2. The bot operator will enter the description to be added to the pages in the Wikipedia category.
3. The bot will follow through these steps for each page:
3a. The bot will check if the Wikipedia page has a corresponding item.
3b. The bot will check if the item already has a description
3c. If the Wikipedia page has a corresponding item and the item does not already have a description, the bot will write the description specified by the bot operator in step 2 into the item.
3d. The bot will loop through to the next page in the category and run all steps in step 3 again.
Due to the bot requiring the bot operator to enter in the English Wikipedia category and the description for the items, the bot is semi-automated. I have already done the aforementioned process using the bot to add descriptions to items a few times to make sure the code was working properly.

- @BrokenSegue Yes, I have and am aware of the formatting of descriptions. Urban Versis 32KB ⚡ (talk | contribs) 03:55, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
- Support Looks fine to me too, at least if you'll be following pretty much the pattern you've tested with. One note - two items with the same primary label cannot have the same description string in Wikidata; I'm not sure if your bot would ever run into that but it might be an error condition you'll have to check for. ArthurPSmith (talk) 20:33, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
- Comment Another approach might be to add the short descriptions to enwiki, which are then automatically copied over here by Pi bot. That might help reduce the number of differences of descriptions here and there in the longer term. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 16:46, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
- the style guide for wikipedia/wikidata descriptions are not the same though BrokenSegue (talk) 17:24, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
- @Mike Peel Actually, this was my original plan and I discussed it at Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)/Archive_202#Bot_to_add_short_descriptions_to_articles_in_a_category but I was suggested to bring it here as the bot would mainly edit Wikidata and editing Wikipedia would only create extra steps. Urban Versis 32KB ⚡ (talk | contribs) 03:57, 10 July 2023 (UTC)
- @BrokenSegue, Urban Versis 32: Those are both problems that should be fixed. English Wikipedia seems to want the extra steps, it would be useful if they didn't self-contradict themselves... Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 21:24, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
- those won't be fixed in this request for permission. BrokenSegue (talk) 22:47, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
- @Mike Peel Not sure what you mean by English Wikipedia wanting the extra steps, but if an en-wiki article is linked to a Wikidata item with a description, the description takes the place of a short description on Wikipedia. For example, viewing this Wikipedia category with the shortdescs-in-category tool will reveal that some articles have a locally-added short description whereas one page doesn't have a short description but its corresponding Wikidata item did have a description, which took the place of a Wikipedia short description. Urban Versis 32KB ⚡ (talk | contribs) 22:50, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
- @Mike Peel Actually, I stand corrected. I was looking through the en-wiki Wikiproject Short Descriptions (link here) and it looks like Wikidata descriptions are actually not really used as a replacement for a Wikipedia short description. Therefore, I think I will submit a bot request to en-wiki as you were correct about Short descriptions being a much higher priority on Wikipedia compared to Wikidata descriptions. I will leave this request up however, in case I run into people saying the same thing at Wikipedia as they did before. After the bot (hopefully) gets approved, I will take this one down.

This is currently set to append only, not removing any links Wikidata-side.

Function details: I am making a bot that can track the monthly ranking of websites based on Similarweb Ranking. The bot will receive a list of websites with their corresponding Wikidata IDs and domains to keep the data accurate.
The bot will have to use the Similarweb Top Sites API to get the traffic ranking of each website and store it in a MySQL database along with the date of the ranking. If the website already exists in the database, the bot should update its ranking and date every time there is a new ranking update.
Soon the bot will include some new features that will be communicated in the future.

Code: https://lab.forgefriends.org/friendlyforgeformat/f3-wikidata-bot/
Function details: ForgesBot is a CLI tool designed to be used by participants in the Forges project in two steps. First it is run to do some sanity check, such as verifying forges are associated with a license. If some information is missing, the participant can manually add it or it can use ForgesBot to do so.
The implementation includes one plugin for each task. There is currently only one plugin to verify and edit the license information. The license is deduced by querying the wikipedia pages of each software: if they consistently mention the same license the edit can be done. If there are discrepancies they are reported and no action is done.

UPC, Spotify artist ID (P1902), artist name, number of tracks, name of tracks, ISRC (P1243), and more are compared and looked up on other streaming services API/scrapping to match "identical" relases.

The matches that does not get published will be saved to a file for later to be added to Mix'n'match, maybe. - Premeditated (talk) 23:50, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
- I believe you are misusing the inferred from (P3452) property. Look at the description of that property in English. Please go and fix all the test edits you made. Maybe you want stated in (P248) or similar.
- I think you should add a based on heuristic (P887) statement in the reference? Maybe to record linkage (Q1266546) or similar. This whole workstream seems really similar to what is/was being done by User:Soweego bot. Can you explain how you are different/the same. Maybe we should get input from @Hjfocs:.
- Can you go into more detail about what is creating these scores? How did you verify the scores are meaningful? What kind of model are you using? Is your source code available?

I intend to continue to do so, and after this discussion I am applying for the bot flag for this account in order to avoid flooding Recent Changes/Watchlists.--Liridon (talk) 14:09, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

- @BrokenSegue Hello. Liridon is flooding my Watchlist with his edits adding sq labels to people items. And he's saying he cannot use the bot account because the bot request here was not approved. Can we grant him approval specifically for this kind of edits? Please - for the sake of my watchlist... Thanks... Vojtěch Dostál (talk) 18:28, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

- What? You cant block me because of this. I query Items throught https://query.wikidata.org/, find those without specific label or description, then edit all them with Quickstatements. They are not bot edits. Liridon (talk) 13:42, 20 February 2023 (UTC)
- the bot policy does not specify what technology the bot uses to make the edits. the point of the policy is to provide some oversight over large batch edits. BrokenSegue (talk) 21:46, 26 February 2023 (UTC)
- I'm not doing these edits with cadidate bot user(Mr Robot), but with my non-bot-account (Liridon). Exept for flooding watchlist of other users with my semi-automated edits (which I'm sure a lot of other users do), nothing is against any rules of Wikidata. Liridon (talk) 13:03, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

Task/s: I'm using Openrefine to edit items related to Wikidata:Wikiproject_Lieder, beginning by adding the new subclass lyrico-musical work (Q114586269) to the actual lieder in WD. I hope to gain some experience before going with further edits.

YSObot (talk • contribs • new items • new lexemes • SUL • Block log • User rights log • User rights • xtools)
Operator: YSObot (talk • contribs • logs)
Task/s: Account for mapping Wikidata with General Finnish Ontology (Q27303896) and the YSO-places ontology by adding YSO ID (P2347) and for creating new corresponding concepts in case there are no matches.
Code: n/a. Uploads will be done mainly with Openrefine, Mix'n'Match and crresopoinding tools.
Function details: YSO includes over 40.000 concepts and about half of them are already maapped. The mapping includes
- adding possible missing labels in Finnish, Swedish and English
- adding YSO ID (P2347) with subject named as (P1810) values from YSO
- adding stated in (P248) with value YSO-Wikidata mapping project (Q89345680) and retrieved (P813) with the date.
Matches are checked manually before upload. Double-checking is controlled afterwords by using the Constraint violations report
Flag/s: High-volume editing, Edit existing pages, Create, edit, and move pages
--YSObot (talk) 11:33, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
- The bot was running without approval (this page was never included). I asked the operator to first get it approved. Can you please explain the creation of museum (Q113965327) & theatre (Q113965328) and similar duplicate items? Multichill (talk) 16:27, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
- museo (Q113965327) & teatteri (Q113965328) are part of the Finnish National Land Survey classification for places. These classes will be mapped with existing items if they are exact matches by using Property:P2959.
- Considering duplicate YSO-ID instances: these are most often due to modeling differences between Wikdata and YSO. Some concepts are split in the other one and vice versa. These are due to linguistic and cultural differences in vocabularies and concept formation. Currently the duplicates would be added to the exceptions list in the YSO-ID property P2347. However, lifting the single value constraint for this proerty is another options here.
- Anyway, YSObot is currently an important tool in efforts to complete the mappings of the 30.000+ conepts of YSO with Wikidata. Uploads of YSO-IDs are made to reconciled items from OpenRefine. See YSO-Wikidata mapping project and the log of YSObot. For the moment, uploads are done usually only to 10-500 items at time few times per day max. Saarik (talk) 13:46, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
- That's not really how Wikidata works. All your new creations look like duplicates of existing items so shouldn't have been created. Your proposed usage of {{P|P2959} is incorrect. With the current explanation I Oppose this bot. You should first clean up all these duplicates before doing any more edits with this bot. @Susannaanas: care to comment on this? Multichill (talk) 09:58, 24 September 2022 (UTC)
- This bot is very important, we just need to reach common understanding about how to model the specific Finnish National Land Survey concepts. I have myself struggled with them previously. There is no need to oppose to the bot itself. – Susanna Ånäs (Susannaanas) (talk) 18:02, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
- why do we want to maintain permanently duplicated items? this seems like a bad outcome. why not instead make these subclasses of the things they are duplicates of. or attach the identifier to already existing items. BrokenSegue (talk) 20:36, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

- I think this discussion went a little astray from the original purpose of YSObot.
- The creation of the Finnish National Land Survey place types were erroneously made with the YSObot account although they are not related to YSO at all. I was adding them manually with Openrefine but forgot to change the user ids in my Openrefine! I though that that would not be a big issue. The comments by @Multichilland @BrokenSegue are not really related to the original use of YSObot and do not belong here at all but rather to Q106589826 Talk page.
- About the duplicate question - Earliear, I did exactly that and added these to already existing items with "instance of" property. THe I received feedback and was told to create separate items for the types. So now I am getting to totally opposite instructions from you guys. Lets move this discussion to its proper place.
- And please, add the correct rights for this bot account, if they are still missing as we still need to add the remaining 10.000+ identifiers. Saarik (talk) 11:32, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose as per above. If you refrain from creating new items I would probably support it if I could easily see the flow of logic.
- I strongly encourage you to publish an actvity planuml diagram showing he logic of the matching.
- Thanks in advance. So9q (talk) 10:26, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

- Support Productive user with a high quality track record.--Big bushlips (talk) 19:29, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
- Support Are we really letting this proposal languish because the request was incomplete at the time of submission? Proposer has since addressed that only a selection of podcasts will be imported. If the podcast is in Wikidata/Wikipedia, I'd say the episodes are notable. Also the other way around, if we already have an item for the guest(s). @Germartin1: are you still interested in editing about this subject (I noticed you publicly archived your repo)? I did some similar editing (semi-automated using OpenRefine) before and might be interested in trying to set your code up and operate it for Richard Herring's Leicester Square Theatre Podcast (Q96757385) and Between the Brackets (Q108093799). --Azertus (talk) 10:09, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
