New interface for WikiCleaner

Check Wiki interface

Just to show the current look of the window for working on errors reported by Check Wikipedia:

I have also added all the Wikis recognized by Check Wikipedia. --NicoV 15:33, 11. Apr. 2010 (CEST)

I have just found that the Check Wiki interface is available only if the Experimental functions are available (in the Options). I am releasing a new version without this constraint. --NicoV 19:04, 19. Apr. 2010 (CEST)

HTTP error when db error ?

Hi, from time to time, URLs like http://toolserver.org/~sk/cgi-bin/checkwiki/checkwiki.cgi?project=frwiki&view=bots&id=46&offset=0&limit=25 show an error instead of the list of pages (for example, when the number of connections to the database allowed to you is reached). But the error is just HTML text : would it be possible to return an HTTP error instead ? It would be easier for bots to detect a problem with the request and eventually submit it again a little later. --NicoV 18:48, 1. Apr. 2010 (CEST)

Hi again, is there a possibility to speed up requests like http://toolserver.org/~sk/cgi-bin/checkwiki/checkwiki.cgi?id=48&limit=100&offset=0&project=frwiki&view=bots, for example by not sorting the results ? --NicoV 11:15, 3. Apr. 2010 (CEST)

Hi again, is it also possible to have an URL for the "done" button that doesn't retrieve the updated list of pages? For a bot, it's not useful and it seems to take a lot of resources on the toolserver. --NicoV 14:10, 24. Apr. 2010 (CEST)

Unable to retrieve pageid if page has been deleted

Hi. I'm using the MediaWiki API to interact with Wikipédia from my tool. Most of the time, I can get the "pageid" with the API but it doesn't work when the page has been deleted. I would like to automaticall simulate a call to your "done" button when I detect that a page has been deleted, but I can't do it because I can't retrieve the pageid through the API. I asked on the mailing list for the API, and Platonides suggested me to ask if you could add a way to remove an error using the pagetitle instead of the pageid. Thanks. --NicoV 01:02, 5. Apr. 2010 (CEST)

You can just check if the pageid is there or not. This information is already in the response you receive from the API. --Superyetkin 01:32, 6. Apr. 2010 (CEST)

My problem is not to know if the page still exists on Wikipedia (I'm using the missing attribute for that), but, once I have found that a page has been deleted, I want to notify that the page has been done. So, currently, I need the pageid in this situation. --NicoV 12:04, 6. Apr. 2010 (CEST)

An other option could be to have an other list of pages for bots returning only pageids and not pagetitles : the pageid is enough to retrieve the page informations (title, existing, ...). Would it be possible to add this other list ? --NicoV 14:05, 24. Apr. 2010 (CEST)

Having a list of pageids would also enable bots to deal properly with pages that have been renamed since the detection: the page has its title modified but keeps it pageid, so bots would have the id of the page where the problem was detected (and not the old name which is now a redirect). --NicoV 17:31, 25.
