Hmm, did it happen immediately after you started the scanning? Then most likely it's because it used to start timer and only then initialise different internal variable, so when it took too long the 500 ms timer could already tick before things were ready for it. I addressed it in rev 2978 - could you try it to see if it helps? MaxSem^{(Han shot first!)} 15:41, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Most likely fixed with recent commits. MaxSem^{(Han shot first!)} 19:37, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

It's not a bug: to avoid messing things up, AWB fixes decades only in certain contexts. Currently, this means that date should be preceded by "the", "late", "later", "early" and "mid-". That's why in your example 1930's was fixed as it was "the 1930's", while 1940's was left intact. If there are more 100% reliable contexts, they could be added. Not closing this bug for a while to let ppl report their suggestions. MaxSem^{(Han shot first!)} 16:32, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

I always take the apostrophe out when it is within a link i.e. [[1990's]]. I have not identified any false positives with that. Can you give an example of a false positive that are you are trying to avoid? Lightmouse (talk) 09:45, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

I don't have an example, as that predates my involvement in AWB, but from my experience, if there is a weird condition in parser, it's there for a reason, probably. MaxSem^{(Han shot first!)} 16:03, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Hmm. Thought i'd addressed this before, but seems not. Cannot duplicate it (just tried on a 10mb export of cat:2008 deaths)...

I get this when I run AWB under my VMware Windows XP, where the database scanner seems to run about 7x more slowly than on my native Windows. Under native Windows this exception doesn't occur, so is it some speed issue that the file is taking too long to close? Rjwilmsi 07:20, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

Make list confused by unpatrolled changes?

Status	Fixed in the next release
Description	When I try to make a list of the new pages on the Finnish Wikipedia (http://fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toiminnot:Uudet_sivut), the resulting list is incorrect. The correct list currently begins with "Østlandet", "Gustav Peter Blom" and "Anatoli Fomenko", but the AWB-generated list looks different: "Rahva Hääl", "Viron sosialistinen neuvostotasavalta", "Brian Joubert" etc. The AWB-generated list now seems to include only the patrolled changes and pages linked from their edit summaries (which is definitely a bug). This used to work correctly. Silvonen (talk) 05:50, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

This is intentional. We localize edit summaries if possible on preset wikis, but can't do that on custom wikis, so we attemt to use as less unknown language as possible. MaxSem^{(Han shot first!)} 16:09, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks Max. It looks a bit crappy though so let's leave the bug report open for now please - I'll have a think about how we might improve it. We could, for example, allow language selection of custom wikis, or allow customisation of the AWB string. I know folks could just alter their edit summary, but my observations (especially now we have some log data allowing me to look at custom wikis where AWB is being used) say that they don't. --kingboyk (talk) 18:48, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Last time I checked these were all from RU wiki and probably just the one user. Could I get a second opinion on whether there's a bug or not?

Unreadable options in 'Make from' drop down list

Status	Fixed in the next release
Description	Unreadable options in 'Make from' drop down list. Some of the options exceed the length of the window. I suggest having putting the label on top of the field. This is a common interface method with many important benefits: it allows longer field lengths, alignment of name and field, and variable name lengths for multilingual software. The compromise is that vertical space is lost. Lightmouse (talk) 13:42, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

List Maker designer needs overhauling. —Ree dy 14:17, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Indeed. I think that the whole thing could be modelled on the 'Open' dialog that is in many applications. The list comparer could simply be an advanced extension of that. To me, handling an AWB list is similar to handling a document in MS Word. If I want to stop, I could just select save and the list would be saved. I have thought of a few of the related design issues and I think it could be an improvement. Lightmouse (talk) 14:26, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Marking as wontfix. Its now more easily readable by the drop down bit being wider, the tooltip on the combo box means you dont have to drop it down, you can just hover your mouse over it to get a callout of the text. Thats good enough till we can redesign the designer! —Ree dy 21:30, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Can't you put the label 'Make from:' above the box? That would allow the box to be the full width. Lightmouse (talk) 08:34, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

I was browsing through the revision diff in the archive link above and the current revision of "Main.Designer.cs", and unless I'm not reading the code right, the line of code that was added to fix this bug before ([5], line 2577) has since been removed ([6], line 2834 would be the equivalent as far as I can tell). However, if you can't duplicate it, maybe that's not the issue... – T M F 11:14, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

VS has this strange habit of moving all the designer code around, even with minor changes, not sure why, but makes it difficult for finding this changes. However, you might be right, the group box has been set back to transparent behind that text box on the disambig. tab on main.cs. rev 3414 puts it back again —Ree dy 11:28, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

I just downloaded and compiled rev 3414 using TortoiseSVN and Visual Studio 2008 and I can confirm that this bug has been fixed. Thanks!

AWB freezes when running with bot

Status	Fixed in the next release
Description	AWB freezes when running with bot. When I run as 'Lightmouse', AWB runs fine. When I run as 'Lightbot' it will skip articles fine and can manage to edit and save a couple of articles but then it freezes. I have to do Ctrl-Alt-Del to crash out of the 'Not responding' mode. This is even without using 'Autosave'. It has been like this for about a day. I tested it with svn3412 and svn3407 and get the same symptoms. Lightmouse (talk) 19:18, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

I tried downgrading to svn3395. Now when I login as Lightbot, it freezes just after I click 'Log in'. I can use it as Lightmouse without any problems. Is there something weird about what it does with bots? Any suggested tests that will help diagnosis? Lightmouse (talk) 20:21, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

It's not that 4.4.1 changed something, it's that it handles errors more thoroughly, preventing further errors you reported. Now, from report you posted early I suppose that the URL should be http://www.dev.spadental.co.uk/wiki/ , instead of what you're trying. Or whatever where your index.php and api.php are. MaxSem^{(Han shot first!)} 15:01, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

You are correct the URL is http://www.dev.spadental.co.uk/wiki/, the screen gives the impression that www.dev.spadental.co.uk/wiki/ should be entered in the box. I have tried both and get the same result Cjchilling (talk) 15:49, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Just noticed MaxSem^{(Han shot first!)} that you have changed the Status of this "bug" to "Not a bug in AWB, has been referred", I am confused if I was not getting an error connecting to my custom wiki with 4.4.0.0 but am now getting a "known error" (ie not a Bug) with 4.4.1.0 and there has been no change on the server - how can this not be a problem with the client software? I have set it back to new for the moment until you tell me otherwise.Cjchilling (talk) 16:03, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

The URL is dead for me... —Ree dy 17:50, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

You will not be able to see this URL as it is an internal server only visible on our LAN Cjchilling (talk) 21:28, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

I "un-istalled" 4.4.1.0 and "re-installed" 4.4.0.0 and immediately was able to connect to our "custom server" and it is now correctly displayed in the bottom right corner. When I then tried to log-in I get the following "Problem".

This version is not enables, please download the newest version. It you have the newest version, check that Wikipedia is online.

Please press "Yes" to run the AutoUpdater, "No" to load the download page and update manually, or "Cancel" to not update (but you will not be able to edit)."

After choosing Cancel - there is a message in bottom left corner which says "Software disabled".

Is there a way to go back to version 4.4.0.0? Cjchilling (talk) 22:08, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

I'm having the same problem with marveldatabase.com, and I can't figure out how to fix it. I was extremely happy with 4.4.0.0, and extremely disappointed when the update caused the browser to skip every page. Any suggestions?

Peteparker (talk) 05:08, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

I have not been able to find a workaround for this - nor can I work out how to go back to using 4.4.0.0 Cjchilling (talk) 07:10, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Now we've got an externally available wiki we can test against, we can have a look at debugging, and hope work out either whats wrong with AWB, or what needs changing on your wiki, if that is indeed the actual problem. Max did make some changes with detection and such between 4.4 and 4.4.1, which has maybe found the problems. —Ree dy 09:26, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Appears to be some HTTP server or network misconfiguration. MaxSem^{(Han shot first!)} 13:33, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

Still having the same problem on marveldatabase, but we're changing the URL tomorrow to marvel.wikia.com, so hopefully that'll solve it. Sorry it's not a fix for spadental, but since custom URLs seem to be the only ones affected, I'm hoping the URL change will fix it for us. I can log in, and load a list of pages, but when a change is attempted, instead of saving the page, it skips the page very quickly and leaves "There was a problem loading the page" in the skip logs.

Peteparker (talk) 03:07, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

I have temporally arranged for port 80 to be opened and point to our relevent internal server, you will find spadental.co.uk on the following IP address http://217.45.118.30/wiki to allow you to test against our server. Cjchilling (talk) 08:56, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Someone else on IRC has just tried it and it fixed it for them, On the portuguese uncyclopedia. The logon errors, i suspect, are the old wiki. —Ree dy 16:14, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Filter for main space allows a template through

Status	Not a bug in AWB, has been referred
Description	Filter for main space allows a template through. I did a 'Links on page' for the Wikipedia Main Page. Then I filtered it for main space articles only.

T:, not Template: ? —Ree dy 14:23, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

It's a crossed namespace problem. Someone to delete T:TDYK.It's an article redirecting to a template. It was kept "for historical reasons". -- Magioladitis (talk) 14:51, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Reedy, as an administrator, can you correct the links transcluded in Template:DYKbox so they are all in the correct namespace? -- Magioladitis (talk) 14:58, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

What, like T:DYK to Template:DYK? —Ree dy 15:18, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Just follow the redirects:

T:DYK -> Template:Did you know
T:TDYK -> Template talk:Did you know
T:DYK/N -> Template:Did you know/Next update

If you don't want to ruin the length, make them piped. This change will save us from lot of trouble. Thanks, Magioladitis (talk) 15:23, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Surely that makes the redirect pointless on the page? And might aswell be removed? —Ree dy 15:38, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Better don't delete them. We have to ask because they are marked as historic. Certainly, they should not be used anymore. Template:DYKbox causes the only problem. This is the template linked by the main page and elsewhere. -- Magioladitis (talk) 15:50, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

The edit screwed up the page formatting. Instead of the contents table being on the right of the page, it gets displaced by the infobox which squeezes the text on the left and leaves and empty space on the right. Compare the layout to the edit before and after and you should see what I mean. Gatoclass (talk) 17:05, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Exactly. For me they make no difference either. Relying on newlines to fix layout issues is EXTREMENLY WRONGONEONE Due to almost infinite number of possible browser/font size/zoom/resolution combinations, you'll never get it right. Ever. Use {{-}} or something that explicitly defines the layout instead of hacks that work only on your system. MaxSem^{(Han shot first!)} 06:46, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried another PC and it worked fine. So I downloaded and reinstalled IE7 but that had no effect. I suspected that some of the old settings had been carried across to the new installation so I went to the advanced option of 'Reset Internet Explorer settings'. That did it. It now works fine. I have no idea what it was, I rarely use IE. Could it have been some conflicting Javascript from another website?

Error in "public static readonly Regex ExternalLinks" – excessive text is masked

Image masking works incorrectly when image description contains wikilink(s)

Status	Fixed in the next release
Description	There's a bug with the image masking code (in MakeLangSpecificRegexes() it's the Images line). When the image description contains wikilink(s) the mask stops at the end ]] of the first wikilink, not the brackets matching [[Image:. Example of issue this edit where the descriptions of two images had wikilinked dates in them. As the image mask stopped at the end of the day/month link, only the year was delinked. This prevents correct date delinking. Lightmouse, this is a problem for your module script. Solution: use ([^\[\]]?(?:\[\[.?\]\][^\[\]]?))\]\] instead of (.?)\]\]. This will match the whole image bit, which is the correct image mask. For date delinking this means no wikilinked dates will be removed from image descriptions. Not sure what to do about that.

Please don't make conclusions about things you're unfamiliar with. The problem lies in HideText, there's no serious way to achieve this with regexes. I've added some tests that indicate this problem in rev 3432. MaxSem^{(Han shot first!)} 14:29, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Hey, I was only trying to be helpful, while learning more about AWB to help me with my custom module. Obviously I'm not an expert in the code but it does seem HideText references the line I've cited ( where it does if (HideImages)...Replace(WikiRegexes.Images.Matches(ArticleText), ref ArticleText);).

Now, I hadn't thought about images within images. I've had another go. Perhaps we can't get a perfect match on masking images with regex, but I think ([^\]]*?(?:\[\[?.*?(?:\[\[.*?\]\].*?)?\]\]?[^\]]*?)*)\]\] instead of (.*?)\]\] in the place explained above will pass all of the useful unit tests you've just added. It will catch 'image within image' as per your unit test, but not 'image within image within image' (is there a live example of this?). However, I think it's a fair improvement and will overcome the issue Lightmouse was having with wikilinked dates in image descriptions.

I've successfully tested it with my own SVN version (e.g. find&replace 'foo' to 'xxx' with hide images checked on User:Rjwilmsi/Test, where I've imported those unit tests). Thanks Rjwilmsi 18:14, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks but I have not been able to update my code because I don't have any code that says

.*?)\]\]

Lightmouse (talk) 23:00, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Perhaps I didn't explain very well: the change needed is in WikiRegexes.cs, part of the AWB SVN, not your own module. I'm hoping that the AWB developers will review the change I've suggested and add it in, so that this bug can be resolved for all AWB users. Rjwilmsi 23:30, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Does make 1 extra test pass... =) —Ree dy 09:54, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Would this solution work for those of us that use modules? Lightmouse (talk) 11:47, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

Yes, that's how I found & tested it (detail: modules use the HideText() method which uses the WikiRegexes.Images.Matches line of code to hide images. Find & replace with 'hide images' uses the same code too). Rjwilmsi 12:40, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

The reason for this move is that a number of extremely minor, inconsequential edits have originated from your account through the tool. This sort of change, which isn't really important in the grander scheme of the article, is best added to the "general fixes" part of AWB so that the "problem" can be fixed when more effectual bot tasks are run.

I'd have imagined that my comment would have been rather clear to someone with a knowledge of Lightmouse's last 50 (at least) contribs. It appears not. I revoked the access due to misuse of the tool to make minor and inconsequential edits. Delinking can be classed as minor and inconsequential. If you want the changes to be made to articles, the best thing to do is seek consensus for the changes to be made and offer a patch or file a bug for the fix to be included in AWB's general fixes. In this way, the dates can be delinked automatically when other users run bot tasks or other tasks which make more consequential changes.

Note please that the same course of action (revocation of access to the tool) is frequently used when users go through articles doing only "general fixes" with the tool. This change is nothing more than a general fix, hence my removal of the access. Martinp23 16:25, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

2nd typo related bug

Status	Not a bug/currently unresolvable
Description	Since the only typo related bug got fixed so quickly here is another one. :) Unless I am misunderstanding the purpose of the "no changes" stat it doesn't seem to be working correctly. I assumed it was supposed to count the number of times a user skipped the "typo" (presumably because it was a false positive), but the majority of the time I skip a typo - either by double clicking the line to undo the change, or by ignoring the article in question - "no changes" remains at zero. Is this a bug or me not understanding the point of the stat correctly? :)ThaddeusB (talk) 20:57, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

I dont think its No of Changes, (MaxSem would be able to clarify).

            int selfMatches = OverallTypoStats.SelfMatches;
            lblNoChange.Text = selfMatches.ToString();

I *believe* it has something to do with regexes that are matching stuff to change, and the thing its changed to is exactly the same as the original... Max? —Ree dy 21:10, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

I believe Reedy is right on this one: the idea of the "no changes" stat is to identify any incorrect typo rules. If all is well, "no changes" should not go above zero. Rjwilmsi 21:21, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, im pretty sure thats what it was for (debugging).. I suspect its maybe worth making it a bit clearer —Ree dy 21:26, 3 December 2008 (UTC)

In that case, may I suggest adding a 3rd column for times ignored. This info is potentially usefully for finding rules that detect a lot of false positives. (Let me know if I should take this to feature suggestions.) --ThaddeusB (talk) 21:19, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Hmm.. Im not sure this can be added simply... Again, Max would possibly be best to comment, i think its going to have to become a feature request. —Ree dy 22:03, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

Actually..

                        // if skipped, all changes considered false positives
                        if (skipped) old.FalsePositives += typo.Total - typo.SelfMatches;

Seems to be there, but not actually outputted/shown.. Will poke Max to this —Ree dy 22:05, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

That "no changes" thingie means that a replacement has been made, but it resulted in no actual change (i.e. the rule matched a correct spelling). "False positive" means that a replacement has been made, but it was incorrect and had to be manually rejected. False positives are not currently correctly counted and therefore we don't show this stat to users. Unless there is a clean example of a page where "no changes" is counted incorrectly, this bug is closed as invalid. MaxSem^{(Han shot first!)} 20:33, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
