BorkedBot 4[edit]
BorkedBot (talk • contribs • new items • new lexemes • SUL • Block log • User rights log • User rights • xtools)
Operator: BrokenSegue (talk • contribs • logs)
Task/s:
- Populate qualifiers subject named as (P1810), language of work or name (P407) (when relevant)
- For the following external identifiers: Fandom wiki ID (P4073), Fandom article ID (P6262),
Freebase ID (P646), Google Knowledge Graph ID (P2671), Gamepedia wiki ID (P6867), YouTube video ID (P1651) (suggest more in comments?)
Code: Available in the User:BorkedBot page.
Function details: This is a pretty broad request and I will narrow it down if there are objections but I'm hoping past uses of my bot and the simplicity of the task will let that slide. The code for all this isn't written and this task won't begin until my current tasks are done. Given that I'm still waiting on my last RFP/BOT from October I figured doing this early and broad would be best. But in principle this is a simple task.
- Find all uses of the identifier without these qualifiers.
- Hit the relevant API.
- Populate the qualifier.

Question What qualifiers are you planning to use on YouTube video ID (P1651)? And would it possibly to import the last update (P5017) from Fandom? --Trade (talk) 15:43, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
- @Trade: I was thinking subject named as (P1810) and language of work or name (P407) though maybe title (P1476) is more appropriate here. And I'm unsure if last update is worth it given how fast I imagine it'll go stale? I don't know if updating our records every time an edit happens there (or even quarterly) is worth it.

- I was thinking subject named as (P1810)/language of work or name (P407), author name string (P2093) (name of channel), publication date (P577), duration (P2047) (seconds), number of viewers/listeners (P5436) and point in time (P585). 'And I'm unsure if last update is worth it given how fast I imagine it'll go stale?' I mean they all go stale, that's why your bot update the YouTube Channel qualifiers every third month. --Trade (talk) 16:19, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
- fair enough. i can do all that assuming the api returns it. not sure of the utility though. BrokenSegue (talk) 16:32, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
