CR-FluxxBot

Creation with translate tags

Hello DSaroyan,

Here and on some other pages, the bot has created some text containing translate tags. Are these page really expected to be translated or this is only a copy issue? In last case, from where comes the copied wikitext?

The bot is quickly increasing the translation admin backlog, we should stop this behavior. Regards, -- Pols12 (talk) 23:35, 30 March 2022 (UTC)

Also, if the page is marked for translation (as happened with Grants:Programs/Wikimedia Community Fund/WIKI KOUMAN TCHAD), then CR-FluxxBot will remove the translation unit comments, which is clearly undesirable * Pppery * _{it has begun} 00:57, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

Hello Pols12 and Pppery, thanks for bringing this to my attention. This is not a copy issue, the bot puts these tags to all applications because some pages might get translated. But I realize the issues it causes on your end, as well as the removal of translation marks after the bot updates these translated pages. Since a few pages have already been translated, I kindly ask you to offer me a few weeks to work on this and I'll remove all translation tags from all applications. Here are the templates that the bot uses. I'll just remove the translation tags from the templates and the applications will get slowly updated. Does this sound good to you? Sorry for all trouble caused! --DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 05:46, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your quick answer! 🙂 We’re open to help with translation, we just want to ensure we and translators don’t work vainly. There is no urgent need to fix concerned pages. -- Pols12 (talk) 19:16, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

Dear Pols12 and Pppery, thanks again for your patience. I can confirm that the translation tags will slowly disappear from all applications. Let me know if you notice any other issues. Best, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 15:29, 4 April 2022 (UTC)

No edit summary

Hi, I was wondering if we can have edit summary for edits eg. (Updating). Thank you. 511KeV (talk) 15:57, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

Hello 511KeV, thanks for reaching out to me. Your comment wasn't clear to me. Could you please specify where do you want to have edit summaries for edits? Thanks, DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 08:15, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

Hi, @DSaroyan (WMF). Well, I was just checking the edits made by this bot eg Here I was wondering if they can have a common edit summary something like Updating rather than no edit summary. Just a suggestion as I don't like to see this no edit summary. Thankyou. 511KeV (talk) 09:04, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

Hi 511KeV, thanks for the suggestion! It's a helpful recommendation and I see why you would like to see edit summaries. Unfortunately, it's not implemented now, but we will add this feature into our wishlist to deploy when we make new changes to the tool. Thanks again and have a great day! --DSaroyan (WMF) (talk) 10:59, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

User:CR-FluxxBot is converting a working interwiki link to a non-working link.

Please see this change where User:CR-FluxxBot changed a working interwiki link en:WP:UV ([[en:WP:UV]]) to a non-working link WP:UV.
