AWB reference issues

Hi, please tag me here if you spot any issues with my AWB editing. I've been running a find+replace script on several thousand pages to fix up references to sources typically used for Korea-related articles. It's still in development, so sometimes it changes the same page several times due to the new features. toobigtokale (talk) 11:43, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Also see Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Korea#AWB reference edits for more discussion on my AWB edits. toobigtokale (talk) 20:11, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

References needing fixing

Since you have been fixing references, I am posting it here.

There are cases where the |last=, |first=, or |author= parameter in a citation template (Template:Cite web, Template:Cite news, etc.) contains the string 기자.

• One very interesting case I found: |last=더보기> |first=이정찬 기자 <다른 기사 (found in Andre Jin Coquillard)

You may want to fix these as well. 172.56.232.228 (talk) 20:58, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, will make an effort to fix. toobigtokale (talk) 22:42, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

• Also, note that you get an error if there are 2 |first= parms, as in this edit, Only the 2nd one will display -- the 1st one is ignored. Davemck (talk) 14:06, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

  Usually I spot that type of error, but that mistake slipped past me. Thank you for pointing it out. toobigtokale (talk) 20:50, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

  Thanks for that fix. There are several more; you can see them on Category:Articles using duplicate arguments in template calls. Davemck (talk) 01:53, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

  Gah. Thanks for pointing that out. Some pages I have to review several dozen changes so I end up missing things like that. I'll try to be more thorough. toobigtokale (talk) 01:54, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

  In case you're interested @Davemck, I finished up my round of large-scale AWB edits, see Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Korea#AWB reference edits. Please let me know if you know of any other way I can look for my own mistakes, like by using the category linked above. Thank you for the help 🙂 toobigtokale (talk) 02:09, 7 March 2024 (UTC)

AWB to tag CJK text

hey there! do you have a fairly robust way of identifying untagged text in Hangul etc. with AWB, or is it still mostly manual for you? I've been trying to hack it so I can safely do it but it's too finnicky to trust still. Remsense诉 00:29, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

I'm currently able to automatically identify text that someone improperly tagged (i.e. someone manually typed in variations on Hangul:), and I can automatically replace it with proper wrapping. It can handle spaces/numbers, but it breaks if English text or special chars are part of the target string. Untagged altogether I haven't tested out yet. Brainstorming; maybe could search for (?<koreantext>(|\ |)+) (arbitrary nametag <koreantext> so can recall later for replacement) and do a lookahead/lookbehind for lack of proper wrapping? I think that may work for many cases, but it'd still break if it runs into English or special chars. toobigtokale (talk) 00:40, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

I was thinking about starting a public file to share relevant AWB snippets. Remsense诉 00:41, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

Yea that sounds good! My code is a little hacky but I can drop in cleaner bits lol toobigtokale (talk) 00:43, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

here we are! Remsense诉 00:55, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

I'll update you later, but I've been gradually improving my detection code. I may not get around to the general unwrapped case in the near future though. toobigtokale (talk) 05:40, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

Sick! Thank you. Remsense诉 06:21, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

Glad you like my contribution

I only have a Korean-American mother, hence I'm a Korean speaker on a near native-level, but I don't consider myself as a Korean ever since my family settled in Japan since the 1990s. I'm actually more Japanese-American. I'm mostly making new articles for very obscure American music composers and Shinto. Anyways, thank you. Komitsuki (talk) 14:37, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Just a heads up; I read your bio after sending the thanks and was taken aback. I know you had your own experience that I 100% respect and believe, but to claim that living there is universally bad for everyone is a little insulting to the experiences of me and others who had/have great memories there.

At the very least I'd never write such publicly about any specific country, even ones that I had bad experiences in. You avoidably alienate people if you do that. toobigtokale (talk) 15:29, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

Formatting

Hi Toobigtokale,
when you reformat Korean stuff, please make sure to not make changes to file names like you accidentally did here.
Kind regards, Grueslayer 11:23, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

Ah darn. Sorry about that, I normally try to look out for that but missed that one. Thanks for calling that out. toobigtokale (talk) 19:02, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for all your edits! ;-) KR, Grueslayer 18:37, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Happy to do it :) toobigtokale (talk) 18:46, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Checking in

Hello, Renamed user 1oj3saabam,

Typically when editors change their username to one like yours, it means they are leaving the project. I hope that's not true as you have made a lot of wonderful contributions here. Maybe a Wikibreak would be a good idea and the urge to contribute again might return one day. I took two Wikibreaks in my 10 years here, one for 6 months and another for 2 years so I'm hoping I run into your edits again one day. By the way, the only way I found myself here is that there was a leftover broken redirect from one of your User page page moves. But I'll leave and bother you no more. Just wanted to tell you that you'll be missed! Liz 20:00, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
