Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: automatic

Programming language(s): AutoWikiBrowser

Source code available: AWB is open source

Function overview: CheckWiki error fixing bot operated using AWB

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#Check Wiki error fixing AWB Bot for CW Error #3, though it does not have many comments. This is anyways an uncontroversial maintenance task

Edit period(s): Manual runs whenever new CheckWiki error dumps are posted

Estimated number of pages affected: ~1000 for each dump

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes

Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): No

Function details: Fix Check Wiki errors on the affected pages with GenFixes turned on. Skip options in AWB, Page is in use, No changes made, Only cosmetic changes are made, will be turned on.

I intend to keep Auto Tagging and RegexTypoFixing on, but OK with turning it off if there is any opposition. With reference to this discussion, any page containing disambiguation after changes, will be skipped to avoid any misfires.

# Priority Cosmetic Error AWB Description
03
(dump) 		High No Reference list missing / disambiguation page with disallowed <ref>  Y The article contains one or more <ref> tags, but is missing a {{Reflist}} or <references /> tag. Or a disambiguation page contains a disallowed <ref> tag, see WP:DABREF.
06 Low No DEFAULTSORT with special characters  Y Don't use special lettering in DEFAULTSORT
07
(dump) 		Mid No Headlines all start with three "="  Y First headline starts with "=== XY ===". It should be "== XY ==" header. This causes organisational and accessibility problems.
36 Low No Redirect with incorrect syntax  Y Redirect will not work
37 Low No DEFAULTSORT missing for titles with special letters  Y Don't use special lettering for sorting. DEFAULTSORT should be set without the special lettering.
44 Low No Headlines with bold  Y A headline is all or partially bold. This should rarely be used and may or not be bold depending on the browser used.
45 Low No Interwiki duplication  Y Duplicate entry. Now that interwiki links have been moved to wikidata, this error is possibly due to wikilinks that ought to be rendered that omits the leading : in [[:pt:Jorge de Mascarenhas]]. Should often be converted to internal redlinks per WP:BUILD/WP:REDLINK.
48
(dump) 		Low No Title linked in text  Y A wikilink of the article's title was found. This creates an unnecessary circular wikilink per MOS:OVERLINK/WP:SELFREDIRECT and inappropriately bolds the linked word.
54
(dump) 		Low No Break in list  Y WP:LISTGAP
57 Low No Headlines end with a colon  Y Remove the :
61 Low No Reference before punctuation  Y <ref> comes after not before various punctuation marks (.,?:;!); see WP:REFPUNC
62 High No URL without http://  Y A URL was found that contained no http://. Example: [en.wikipedia.org Wikipedia]
63 Low No <small> in a <ref>, <sub> or <sup>  Y <ref> and <sub> tags already create smaller text. Adding a <small> would cause the text to be smaller than 85%. This goes against accessibility guidelines.
66 Low No Image description with full <small>  Y Image description text is already smaller. Adding a <small> would cause the text to be smaller than 85%. This goes against accessibility guidelines.
84 Off No Section without content  Y
86 High No External link with two brackets  Y Found an external links surround by double brackets.
Example: [[http://www.wikipedia.org Wikipedia]]
89 Low No DEFAULTSORT with no space after the comma  Y The script found a DEFAULTSORT without a space after the comma {{DEFAULTSORT:DuBois,Lewis}}. The causes the article to be sorted as the first DuBois article.
93 Mid No External link with double http://  Y The script found an external link that had double http://. An example would be [http://http://www.google.com]
101
(dump) 		Low No Ordinal number found inside <sup> tags  Y Ordinal numbers should be in regular text, not inside <sup> tags See MOS:ORDINAL.

Above is the list of all the errors that I intend to fix using this bot task. Apart from CW Error #03 and CW Error #44, all of the cases of those errors can be fixed using AWB GenFixes without any intervention.

CW Error #03 - Reflist Missing task: A majority of my AWB edits were fixing this error, and I did not find a single wrong suggestion by AWB. I believe that AWB has been updated to not make a mistake about this task, and that it can be done without any supervision.

CW Error #44 - Headlines with bold: Again, I have done many tasks with fixing this error manually and have not found a single error.

@Primefac Could you please add the bot to Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser/CheckPageJSON, or should I use my main account? ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 10:19, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
