This is a page for requesting work to be done by a bot. This is an appropriate place to simply put ideas for bots. However be aware of various tools available to all users which can be used to accomplish the work without the need for a bot:
  1. Gadget Cat-a-lot can be used for most category adding, removing and moving
  2. VisualFileChange tool can be used for mass-changes of one author's uploaded files, or files in a category, creating a mass-deletion-request, let you insert tags to the file-description-pages (even copy from exif/meta-data). You can also perform find and replace operations with or without JavaScript regular expressions (regexp). A common use case is: "I've changed my username". It's a web-tool and can be launched directly.
  3. AutoWikiBrowser can be used for large number of supervised and automatic edits
  4. Commons:Batch uploading page can be used to request mass image uploads
Please add {{Section resolved|1=~~~~}} when request is resolved.
SpBot archives all sections tagged with {{Section resolved|1=~~~~}} after 7 days.

Remove Template:WikiProject Aviation from file talk pages[edit]

See also: Commons:Deletion requests/Template:WikiProject Aviation. The template was a somewhat foolish attempt at adding an en-wiki style WikiProject banner template to the talk page of each and every aviation-related file. Luckily, that never took off, but there are still about 200 file talk pages that have that banner. If someone could remove them so we can move on with deleting the template, that would be great.

Change an image with another of the same thing, but better[edit]

Eyo! Please change File:VAM Nisaba Lagasch.jpg with File:Vessel fragment depicting the goddess Nisaba (?) and an inscription from Entemena, ruler of Lagash, circa 2430 BC, chlorite, Pergamon Museum, Berlin.jpg Neoclassicism Enthusiast (talk) 20:00, 8 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Neoclassicism Enthusiast: Do you want to swap filenames between File:VAM Nisaba Lagasch.jpg and File:Vessel fragment depicting the goddess Nisaba (?) and an inscription from Entemena, ruler of Lagash, circa 2430 BC, chlorite, Pergamon Museum, Berlin.jpg, or do you want to just modify the 21 uses on 17 projects? Please use internal links.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 20:16, 8 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Change my photos to creator-template and ISOdate[edit]

Hello, I had uploaded over 9.569 images. Now I want the Creator:Stefan Kühn in all of this images. All images could found normally in the c:Category:Photographs by User:Stefan Kühn or a subcategory. Optional, can you add in the date-field of all images the Template:ISOdate like {{ISOdate|2010-08-18 08:15:30}}. Many Thanks. --sk (talk) 10:34, 15 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Stefan Kühn: The first part of this looks like it could be fulfilled with the use of {{Creator}}. Do you have a file description page that the bot maintainer could use as a prototype of how such pages should look?   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 13:23, 15 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Jeff G. Simple replace. Like this change. --sk (talk) 13:27, 15 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Stefan Kühn:  Doing….   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 13:59, 15 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Stefan Kühn: ✓ Done, Creator:Stefan Kühn now has 9,887 transclusions.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 22:56, 15 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
