bot flag

Hi, sorry to bother you! Am I correct that you were responsible for adding this account to the bot user group, per my request? It appears that went correctly, per the list of bots.

However, there are two little weird issues. One is that I can't find any record of the user group being given out. I'd expect it to be in this log, like for FuzzyBot? The second is that I haven't managed to edit with the bot flag. Of course, that might very well/likely be user error or an error in my tool/configuration. I just thought it was weird in combination with the lack of a log; do you think that's significant or a red herring? When I tried to edit with the bot flag set, I got the following MediaWiki API error: apierror-assertbotfailed.

To be complete, I checked the userinfo endpoint, which reported that I have the bot right and that I am in the bot group. Do you have any ideas? --AzBot (talk) 11:21, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

In the early beginning of the project staff has handled all user rights. This has been handed over to the community some time ago. Since we do not have any local bureaucrats we need some help of the stewards for advanced rights. You can find the log on Meta: [1]. Since I am not a bot maintainer I am not sure what you have to do to edit with the bot flag. Maybe mw:API:Assert provides some help? --Ameisenigel (talk) 12:28, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for the info and for allowing me to stop chasing that red herring! Given that the two were unrelated, I tracked it down to a missing grant on my bot password and a bug in the library I was using. --AzBot (talk) 14:31, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
To add to my confusion, "bot flags" only seem to show up on Special:RecentChanges, not in the regular page history. So that threw me for a bit as well... --AzBot (talk) 14:37, 4 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Korrektur von Bezeichnungen

Hallo Ameisenigel, kann ich Bezeichnungen von Funktionen so wie hier einfach ändern oder verursache ich damit Probleme? Viele Grüße Brettchenweber (talk) 19:38, 11 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Das kannst du ruhig machen. Gegebenenfalls wäre es aber sinnvoll, das bei den Implementierungen und Tests ebenfalls entsprechend anzupassen. --Ameisenigel (talk) 20:39, 11 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Danke, ich versuche es mal. Brettchenweber (talk) 20:59, 11 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Request for creating Mediawiki:Recentchangestext

Hi, sorry to bother you, but I wanted to suggest creating the Mediawiki:Recentchangestext. This page would be very helpful for users to navigate important links, such as "Create a function" and other useful resources. If you’d like, I can create a starting page to help get this set up. By the way, I requested Dark Mode gadget on one of the interface-admin's talk page, but unfortunately, if they don't have time to fulfill requests at least, why do they even ask for these rights?! Thank you in advance. Aram (talk) 21:39, 23 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi. I would suggest to propose this at Wikifunctions:Project chat first and it would be really helpful if you could create a page for it. I can implement this if there are no objections.
For the gadget @Ebrahim, Mdaniels5757, and Terasail: might be able to help. --Ameisenigel (talk) 00:37, 24 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Aram I added the gadget; please let me know if there are any issues. Best, —‍Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 04:10, 24 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Ameisenigel Thank you for the warm reply! I have created Template:Recentchangestext and made a proposal here. And @Mdaniels5757, thank you as well for fulfilling my request regarding Dark Mode; you've saved a lot of eyes! Thank you both, I really appreciate it! Aram (talk) 20:46, 24 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
