Wiktionary talk:Votes/bt-2021-09/User:CrowleyBot for bot status

@Crowley666, do you intend to use this bot for any purpose beyond the one you described in the vote? If so, how will you request permission from the community to do so? —Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 18:47, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

@Metaknowledge, tasks including

1. Fix User:Jberkel/lists/L2-header-label-mismatch/20201101 (I won't fix lb:ojp under ja, lb:zh under mul, etc).

   In [1], I detected lang=en by extracting the L2 title (英语). In [2], I filled lang=de by title 德语, without touching another lang=sh. For other examples, see [3].

   It's quite hard to know which labels are legit under which. I'll deal with lb:en first because they're usually resulted by copy-paste.

2. Tangut IDS data. These will be filled after a standard Tangut layout is born.
3. Create CJK form-of entries.
4. Fix mistakes I encounter when I run zh.wiktionary bot.

I won't ask for consensus before just fixing mistakes, especially when less than 100 edits or WT:EL. I may ask other admins to review my program when the task is sophisticated. I may ask other admins before I fill good data or create form-of entries. For other tasks I will start a discussion at WT:BEER.

By the way, is copying hyphenation/IPA to German entries from de.wiktionary acceptable here? Though it's not a good idea for me to do this, because I know little about German. Crowley666 (talk) 02:01, 19 September 2021 (UTC)

Sounds fine to me. As for copying hyphenation, I don't know how reliable those data are — other Wiktionaries vary wildly in quality. If you collate a large subsample of the data, show it to a en.wikt editor who works on German, and get their approval, then it would be fine to do. —Μετάknowledge^{discuss/deeds} 02:45, 19 September 2021 (UTC)

@Crowley666: Yes, IPA and hyphenation on German Wiktionary are reliable in my experience. Logically, because those are added by humans who are most likely Germanists or similar people who are particularly diligent about the current standards in pronouncing and hyphenating.

I hope so. In case I want to copy these, I'll check qualifiers, like Austria / South German, etc, and decide how to copy them or to add them to the existing pronunciation section, which will be painful. So I won't prioritize this task. Crowley666 (talk) 04:30, 19 September 2021 (UTC)
