Bilderbot

Operator: Luxo

Automatic or Manually Assisted: Automatic

Programming Language(s): PHP

Edit period(s) (e.g. Continuous, daily, one time run): monthly

Bot flag requested: (Y/N): Y

Functions: The Bot loads all pictures of archives of the german Graphic Lab. By the Template:Bilderwerkstatt he finds all retouched pictures, and by the parameter |orig=Originalimage.jpg in the template the original picture is found. Afterwards the retouched versions are entered in the original picture in de or at commons. If the Template:Information is used, the retouched pictures are listed under |other_versions=, otherwise a new section == Retouched pictures / Bildbearbeitungen == is created. The bot will run at the beginning of every month on the archive of the last month, the first runs will include some old archives of the Graphic Lab.

How long I must Waiting for approval?--Luxo 15:26, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Usually a week. --EugeneZelenko 15:29, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Looks fine for me. I could only suggest to put {{de|Von diesem Bild existieren die folgenden Bildbearbeitungen aus der [[:de:Wikipedia:Bilderwerkstatt|Bilderwerkstatt]]:}}{{en|Retouched versions of this picture from the german [[:de:Wikipedia:Bilderwerkstatt|Graphic Lab]]:}} in separate template, so translations to other languages could be added easily in one place. --EugeneZelenko 15:29, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Hm I think more languages than en and de is not concise ... I used this languages, because most of the "clients" of the Graphic Lab speaks German; in my opinion more languages are excrescent.--Luxo 15:10, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm talking about possibility :-) Not everybody understand English or German. --EugeneZelenko 14:35, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

That's right, but there are ~>6500 languages in the world - we must take those which is most understand ;-) Sorry my bad english, I'm en-1 ;)--Luxo 18:32, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

See {{GFDL}} as example. Main point - easy expandability. --EugeneZelenko 14:19, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Yes, but that's not the same, this is a license and important. But the bot-text is not very important - if anybody don't understand it, you can click on the image-link and you see the other version.--Luxo 15:42, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

No objections. Nice asset. Siebrand 15:02, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
