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.

Adding colour space declaration to images[edit]

Hi. There are a few hundred uploads by User:ThailandPhoto that have the colour space undefined or incorrectly defined, resulting in weird colour rendering on many browsers. See the original version of File:Bangkok Benjakiti Park 2.jpg, for example, which shows up like this. It seems like the fix should be a fairly simple matter of editing the metadata to have the correct colour space declared, which should be possible to batch process using a command line application, but I have no idea how to actually do that. Given that this will involve many images, is this is something that can can be handled by a bot? --Paul_012 (talk) 17:59, 21 September 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Delete inaccurate coordinates from sets of photos from the Brno Exhibition Centre[edit]

Please remove all {{Location}} templates and Structured Data coordinates from file sets by Sevela.p.

Ca 654 files affected. The coordinates are very imprecise, scattered at a kilometer distance from the exhibition center. It can be assumed that even for those photos that have a defined position inside the exhibition center with coordinates, the coordinates are inaccurate and do not correspond to the actual location. The number of mislocated photos in a wide area around the fairgrounds makes it impossible to find correctly located photos in this area. (I pointed this out to the uploader on his talk page, he didn't comment. This year, his activity on Wikimedia projects is minimal.) ŠJů (talk) 11:42, 2 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
