OptimusPrime and DPLA having a "robot wars"!

Latest comment: 10 days ago6 comments3 people in discussion

Hello @Don-vip and @Dominic: .

I recently noticed that the two bots sometimes get in each other's way. User:DPLA bot is uploading a new file because the inventory number and file description have changed. But wait, it was a file that had already been uploaded by the DPLA bot earlier, some months or maybe years back, under the old inventory number and file description. As OptimusPrime is programmed, it tags the new upload as a duplicate of the old one, since it wants to keep the older upload. However, from the perspective of the Digital Public Library of America, it would be better to keep the new file, as it is the more accurate one, has the correct file name and inventory number. My request, therefore, is directed to both of you: OptimusPrimeBot will no longer tag DPLA bot uploads as duplicates, provided this is programmable by you, Don-vip. Furthermore, DPLA bot should in future tagg its uploads that it no longer needs with {{Duplicate}} by himself (which he already does but not fast enough, that's why we have then the robot wars...) or a speedy deletion request for a redirect, in case the old redirect is needed for an new upload. Many thanks and best regards, זיו「Ziv」 • For love letters and other notes 21:02, 26 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hi! I agree. The algorithm changed a little bit as a side effect of T28741, that's why my bot has this behaviour for a few weeks now. vip (talk) 21:10, 26 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

@Ziv @Dominic: my bot completely ignores DPLA files now (as long as those files always contain "DPLA" in their names). vip (talk) 21:26, 26 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

@Don-vip: You are the best! Thank you so much! זיו「Ziv」 • For love letters and other notes 21:32, 26 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

@Ziv: Thanks for starting this. I also have been actively developing DPLA bot's code. DPLA_bot's new functionality catches drift at the instition's site by checking their current image hashes against what is in Commons, and also ensuring any title/ID changes are synchronized. There were a lot of edge cases that caused issues on testing that I had to rollback and bugfix. Such as: one page in a multi-page item gets inserted/removed, and now every page needs to get renumbered. This causes a duplicate to de uploaded briefly, until you get to the next page in the series and overwrite that one, and so on. I have built out a lot more logic now to try to always tag the genuine duplicates, but otherwise use file renames and CommonsDelinker to retain all the proper linkages on images and not use excess admin time.

@Dominic: Thank you, I also give you a "thumbs up". You're doing a really great job with those thousands of DPLA files. זיו「Ziv」 • For love letters and other notes 08:37, 27 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
