GuildWiki talk:Bot tasks/Subpages

Of course, this may not be possible with Armor subpages, but I'm fairly certain it can be done. If it can't say otherwise and delete the page.Entrea  [Talk]  23:54, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
 * If it can't be done with a bot, I'll do it by hand :P  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 23:58, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I bet a bot can do it, although it may be more difficult because there isn't a list of them in Non-orphaned pages like there were for NPC's.[[Image:Entrea Sumatae.png|Entrea Sumatae]]Entrea  [Talk]  00:01, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * AWB can make a list from any special page, like Special:Uncategorizedpages. A filter can then be applied to the list to get only pages that end with */Female, */Quests, etc.  The only problem is that it will only list the first 1000 pages, and we'd have to do it again tomorrow to get the rest.   Since this is an extension of an already completed task, I'd be up for starting it tonight already.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 00:44, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, that's good. Unfortunately, I can't do it as I have neither a bot account nor experience with running one (Although AWB isn't much of a bot, if I read it right), but hopefully someone else can do it soon.[[Image:Entrea Sumatae.png|Entrea Sumatae]]Entrea  [Talk]  00:47, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I can run PhoenixBot if you would like :o) -- Shadowphoenix  00:49, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * If you have a bot-flagged account, AWB can run fully automated. And I just noticed on Special:Uncategorizedpages that there are a number that should've been categorized the first time but weren't (Collector pages mostly), so we could pick those up too on this run.  SP, it would probably be good if we split the task this time - you could do /Female and I could do /Male, or something like that, since there's so many of them.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 00:52, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Alrighty, I will turn on PhoenixBot and do /Female :) -- Shadowphoenix  00:53, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * New record for least time between task write-up and task beginning?[[Image:Entrea Sumatae.png|Entrea Sumatae]]Entrea  [Talk]  00:55, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't see any reason why we can't go ahead, no. It's just expanding on what's already been done.  I'll get started on the /Male side then.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 00:57, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Wow, SP's bot is a lot faster than yours. And doesn't mark as minor edits. Both of which may be bad things.[[Image:Entrea Sumatae.png|Entrea Sumatae]]Entrea  [Talk]  01:04, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I already posted on her talk page asking for her to throttle it. &mdash;Dr Ishmael [[Image:Diablo_the_chicken.gif]] 01:05, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

ERROR?
What kind of error is this?Entrea  [Talk]  02:37, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Apparently one that borks AWB.  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 02:47, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Here  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 02:48, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Though it might be worth noting - the link provided in the bug report for the page being processed when the error was encountered: http://guildwars.wikia.com/index.php?title=Abomination/Types&oldid=1028191 - the URL says it's for Abomination/Types, but the link takes me to Sturdy Boots/Female...  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 02:50, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
 * The message that goes to Wikipedia is Automated, I just copy and paste it on the talk page. The error stops AWB from working, it halted everything I was doing so I had to shut PhoenixBot down for the night.  Hopefully all will be ok soon :o) -- Shadowphoenix  02:52, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
