Bot This user account is a bot operated by Fæ (talk).

It is not a sock puppet, but rather an automated or semi-automated account for making repetitive edits that would be extremely tedious to do manually.
Administrators: if this bot is malfunctioning or causing harm, please block it.

Scope
Non-controversial categorization, interlinks, standard template-ing (such as mass licensing template changes or application of the artwork template) and corrections for large Wikimedia Commons projects (envisaged to be mostly related to Wikimedia UK initiatives, though these are often with international involvement) with supporting Commons project pages. For example:
GLAM related batch uploads and well specified and non-controversial mass corrections, categorization, licensing, interlinks or standard template improvements. For example:
Where there is any doubt as to whether a large systematic change would be controversial, these would be put up for a community consensus, in the first instance on the most relevant project page for interested community members to comment on and suggest improvements.
Extensions to original scope:
For the nature of activities, the bot will remain supervised, though it may be left for longer runs (500+ images) and only on non-controversial changes after a significant monitored stable run.

Automatic or manually assisted:

Automatic (sample checks should only be needed as the images have been reviewed at source)

Edit type (e.g. Continuous, daily, one time run):

One time runs.

Maximum edit rate (eg edits per minute):

Around 6 edits per minute.
Bot flag request at Bots/Requests, raised in August 2011 and granted September 2012.

Log 2013 [edit]

  • February: Restarted Geograph categorization of Wales. This should see 150,000+ images have better location categories. /Geograph#C3d
  • January/February saw a significant period of retesting, demonstrating the Geograph sorting to now be 0.03% accurate, at least as accurate as the Ordnance Survey open data itself. /Geograph#Ct1
