OptimusPrimeBot

Hi! It seems that there is a some problem with it. OptimusPrimeBot doesn't copy authorship correctly from the target page. It is necessary to fix because if we keep only name of creator (without his/her organisation) some editor may doubt that the file was actually created by NASA employee (for example) and therefore copyright-free. Thanks. Юрий Д.К 00:45, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi! Indeed there's a scrapping issue with Hubble and JWST websites. I'm looking into it. Thank you for letting me know. vip (talk) 21:54, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
Hi again! As of September, 7 still gives error [1]. Also please note that recent ESA-Hubble images not in PD, but cc-by. They have to tagged with {{EH}}. Thank for your import! Юрий Д.К 21:52, 17 September 2023 (UTC)

This is an excellent template, but I have one question regarding the diffusion threshold. Auntof6, JopkeB and myself have been discussing the threshold for flagging categories as needing help at Categories requiring temporary diffusion). We have found very few diffuseat parameters set above 200 (which is the default if not set). You have set it to 500 for this template, so if you could share your reasoning for that high of a threshold, I think it would be quite informative for the discussion. Thanks! Josh (talk) 17:17, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi @Josh! I honestly don't remember why I chose this particular value. Feel free to set it at a lower value if you find it's a better idea :) vip (talk) 19:35, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

OptimusPrimeBot selection process for file to be deleted, when all is the same, including the date, hour and minute uploaded.

@Don-vip, How does OptimusPrimeBot choose which duplicate file to delete, when everything is exactly the same, including the exact same date, hour and minute these files were uploaded?

Could you please explain this Bot decision process step by step (I do not write code). Also, can you provide the link to the full code that processes and tags duplicate files?

The four files I uploaded below have been tagged by your Bot for deletion. It appears that usually this Bot selects the newest file for deletion. If that is correct, then what other parameter has been coded to select a file for deletion with all things equal- including the same date, hour and minute?

Thank you, -- Ooligan (talk) 04:22, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi @Ooligan. The bot marks the newest files as duplicates of the oldest. If I remember correctly the timestamp precision is of one second, so probably your uploads were done a few seconds after the files that have been kept. vip (talk) 15:49, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
Vip,
1. Can you provide the link to the full code that processes and tags duplicate files, including the "timestamp precision?"
2. Where can I see the file-specific "timestamp" for my uploaded files as well as other files?
Thanks for comfirming the fact that "the bot marks the newest files as duplicates of the oldest." -- Ooligan (talk) 16:39, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
Sure, here you go for the source code: https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/toolforge-repos/spacemedia/-/blob/develop-0.5.x/src/main/java/org/wikimedia/commons/donvip/spacemedia/service/wikimedia/CommonsService.java#L1162
It's one second precision for timestamp, see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Image_table
To check your, you can either look into Commons database replica, or query your files using the Mediawiki API. vip (talk) 16:46, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
Vip,
1. What is "Commons database replica" and where do I find it on any individual file?
2. Where is there information on how to "query your files using the Mediawiki API?"
Thanks, -- Ooligan (talk) 08:32, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

Deletion requests/Files uploaded by User:OptimusPrimeBot

Hello @Don-vip. I hope you are well. We have updated the list of images taking into account your suggestions, since we have not had any more interactions in the deletion request, I would like to know what other steps I should follow to continue deleting the images. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment was added by 191.107.184.124 (talk) 15:01, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

Hello! Thank you for having updated the list. We just have to wait for an administrator to delete the files now. It should not take too long as we have no conflict to settle. vip (talk) 16:13, 7 November 2023 (UTC)

Problem with already existing deletion requests

Salut, could you please programme your bot so that it recognises an existing deletion request for the older file and does not add another one for the newer file. Thank you for your efforts. Salutations à Waterborough (talk) 18:36, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

How to determine provenance?

I Looked at File:HLS-black (1079348640239).png because I have never actually seen this logo in a NASA presentation. There is no obvious way to verify to find an actual nasa.gov URL that can verify that this is in fact a NASA work as the copyright notice asserts. How do I find it? -Arch dude (talk) 19:41, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi! It's from the Artemis Public Outreach site: https://nasa-external-ocomm.app.box.com/s/onrtmdvofqluv5ei5kfu5u1pf8v4xqtl/
I have no idea why NASA publishes these resources there instead of their official website but it's from NASA employees, I found this site through NASA twitter accounts for Artemis program.
You can see that box.com is used by NASA here: https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=box.com+site%3Anasa.gov vip (talk) 22:50, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

Duplicate

Hello Don-vip, your bot marks File:Meyers b7 s0238 b1.png as a duplicate, that is true. But the older file already has a Deletion request. I would like to keep the newer file, because the name of the older is wrong. Greetings --Mapmarks (talk) 20:29, 16 December 2023 (UTC)

Could you please check what the heck your Bot is doing at File:Obernissa_2003-07-13_11.jpg? Greez Arjoopy (talk) 14:52, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi @Arjoopy! It's a side effect of replication lag. My tool checks file contents to make sure to not flag a duplicate several times but it does not work when the database replica is not synchronized with the production database. I need to detect and handle replication lag, thanks for pointing out this problem. vip (talk) 20:10, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
This should do the trick: https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/toolforge-repos/spacemedia/-/commit/833711c1a35881cf4001f0c7f1bdfea98fa3173d vip (talk) 22:42, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
