Research talk:Are the bots really fighting/Work log/2017-03-23

Thursday, March 23, 2017

OK so, I did some work before to build a script that would use the wikidata item for building a list of bots using the bots categories.

See https://github.com/halfak/are-the-bots-really-fighting/blob/master/revert_json_2_tsv.py It seems to work pretty well.

https://quarry.wmflabs.org/query/17557 gathers all the bots that are flagged in our wikis. I'm going to use these two datasets to create one master dataset of all the bot names.

I'm not trying to move 100% away from using mysql because it's hard for others to replicate. I've changed the revert_json_2_tsv.py script so that it takes a --users=<path> parameter. So we won't need to use joins anymore.

And I've kicked off a process to get all of the bot2bot reverts for every dataset except for English because the revert detector is still running :( --EpochFail (talk) 01:39, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
