Hi Ludwig, I’m not sure whether you’re intending to still participate here, but if you are I thought you might want to know that there’s ] about Mathsci’s personal attacks against other editors.

proposal - need collab

I've invited a number of people to join at this thread, so thank you for looking. I'd like to develop something similar to wp:AWB, except PHP based (frankly, I'm starting this because I'm annoyed that there's no version of AWB that works on Macs). My idea is to create a separate user (much like a bot-account): people can navigate to that user's page, where they will find an assortment of HTML forms where they can perform AWB-like functions straight through wikipedia's servers. My problem is the learning curve - the PHP coding is not beyond me technically, but the project is too large for me to handle on my own, given my current informational deficit. I've contacted you (as a group) because you have worked on or developed PHP bot code, and will probably be much more 'up' on this problem than I am. what I need to know is the following:

  • Which of the various available bot frameworks is best suited to this task?
  • How difficult do you think this project will actually be?
  • What's the best approach (In your view) to achieving this?
  • What considerations am I missing? I'm already concerned about keeping this from turning into a vandalism tool, for instance, and about server resources (it would probably be best to have a system of queueing requests, which would help with both problems).

I'd also like to know if any of you are interested in collaborating on this project - that would make things a hell of a lot easier for me, and make development much faster. Please let me know. --Ludwigs2 06:09, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

New AN/I complaint about Mathsci

Hi Ludwig, I’m not sure whether you’re intending to still participate here, but if you are I thought you might want to know that there’s a new AN/I thread about Mathsci’s personal attacks against other editors. This one was posted by user:Rvcx, who’s been experiencing Mathsci’s behavior for the first time within the past week, so as someone who has a lot more experience with Mathsci I thought you might want to offer your input there. Are you interested? --Captain Occam (talk) 08:51, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
