If expanding from raw JSTOR URL (http://www.jstor.org/stable/3363372), the bot does not find doi's, while citoid does. Can we somehow call the same resources as Citoid?

I think if issue is set, the look for and remove (issue).

 If not set then look for ^([A-Z0-9]+)(\([0-9].\))$

Except for all the issues that don't (e.g. 'Suppl. 1', 'Fasc. 1', 'Special Issue'). If the issue is set, skip this fix. There's likely a problem with the citation, but it's not something the bot could reliably fix. (e.g. if you have weird stuff in issue volume number/year/pagenumber chances as you'll have weird stuff everywhere in volume/issue/page). My regex has been fairly well tested in User:CitationCleanerBot, and I don't recall running into any issue with it. The only things I can't make it do with AWB is clean up the volume if |issue= is already set and = $6, because I'm skipping on "if issue is set", which you presumable could do with citation bot (if ≠ $6, should be skipped, per above).

Well, eLife has about 375 uses on Wikipedia WP:JCW/E12, and eJournal / e-Journal appear a crap ton.

Personally (not a maintainer), I prefer here, since I don't need to register on another site, we've got access to familiar wikitext, plus it's easier to link / browse / search / track issues, and we have watchlists. It's also where the bot summaries say to report bugs, and if you report something here it lets others know the issue was reported. If you report it on GitHub, then I additionally need to check GitHub to make sure I'm not filing a duplicate bug report.

I was just thinking that it is easier to connect code fixes (pulls) with issues, and search for issues on github (and see which are fixed/to be fixed). And other free software coders may be able to find reported issues and help out. Plus all ’contributors’ to an issue gets notified when updates to their reported issue is made. I’m not promoting the usage of one or the other, just asking if one was preferred or not from a mainenence pov.

This page is definitely more accessible for bug reporters, which is our principal aim. But as a maintainer, I see a number of advantages to GitHub issues: firstly, I'm more likely to spot them in a timely fashion; secondly, they are integrated with GitHub edits, so it's less overhead to keep track of what has been fixed, and it's possible to link code edits to the issue that has motivated them; thirdly, it's much easier for me to see which issues would benefit from my attention (particularly on occasions when ClueBot III is down!). So I personally would encourage bug reporters who are comfortable doing so to report bugs on GitHub, so long as it doesn't cost them additional time or inconvenience – but certainly want anyone to feel welcome to submit bug reports in whichever format suits them best. This said, a rare thing for me to have much time to contribute to the bot's maintenance, so the preferences of AManWithNoPlan are more pertinent than my own!

Exactly! It can be anything, and the user doesn't have to specify the specific type of work, that shoudl be done with the template (such as {{cite journal}} or {{cite book}}. It's much easier to use the parameter |work=. It looks terrible when the bot changes "cite news [...] |work=BBC News" to |website=BBC News instead of changing it to {{cite news}} and keep work. Now it creates more work for editors, both to change form |website= to |work= or |newpaper=, and to {{cite news}}, instead of just to {{cite news}} which still results in the same output.

Work is confusing AF for most people. If people are citing a journal, they go "this is the journal's name", not "this is the work's name". Recognizable and understandable parameter names are important. Maybe {{cite web}} should be excluding from renaming 'work', because all sorts of crap get puts in there, but everywhere else 'work' should be purged.

Not sure if there is a reason why this isn't done yet, but would it be possible to add JSTOR links in cases where this isn't already added? For example, source 12 in Brachiosaurus has a doi, but I know it is also on JSTOR[11], so shouldn't the bot be able to cross check?

Perhaps a question for the template page rather than here: but how, if not through 'format', ought a link to a pre-print be indicated? If my institution has access to a full text, I want to be using the DOI link rather than scrubbing through an unformatted preprint, but if the title links to a formatted PDF, I'd rather click that and avoid navigating a paywall.

The second biggest problem with those articles is all the google books links that need deleted. The Reference section reads like a paid shill for google wrote it.

AManWithNoPlan, I have never and will never accept pay for writing an article for Wikipedia. Your comment is unfounded and way off base, as a group of editors, none of whom received any pay, wrote the article(s) using sources with links that were available to them in their areas. As these multiple editors live in locations around the globe, they may well have access to sources you are unable to access. That neither makes the links invalid nor advertisements for google. I am uninterested in discussing your edits further, as your manner is very aggressive and accusatory. Headbomb as a historian, where you got it includes the publisher information and location to facilitate others in finding the material. As someone who does not live in the global north, it is often impossible to find a source shown on a web search without knowing the publisher/location. Going to the publisher's website, one can oft times locate the article of interest or ask for it to be provided. If the source gives 10 digits, it is a revision to make it 13; however, that is a minor issue.

I never accused you of being a paid shill. I said it read like that(believe me, I have over google books articles and be chastised for it). If you are referencing specific pages in a book, then please list page numbers and link to those pages in google. If you are not linking to specific free pages then you should not include the google links and should let isbn be the link out. As for 13 vs 10 on ISBN, Wikipedia style guides say they should be converted—it is equivalent to adding 1 to to a USA phone number to specify country code - no real change.

"Seems to be"? If there is no explicit basis for that then it becomes an unsanctioned and questionable alteration. And I would object to replacing an explicit identifier of a periodical with an identifier where the publisher might adopt a naming scheme for articles that does not expressly identify the periodical. Or does so in their own peculiar way, so that across a range of DOIs the only general way of identifying a periodical is to look at the record for the article. And the ISSN is no longer available if a specific DOI becomes unavailable. I don't know that ISSNs should be required, or even routinely added, but where an editor sees fit to add one it should not be removed. ♦ J. Johnson (JJ) (talk) 21:56, 9 September 2018 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-09-09T21:56:00.000Z","author":"J.

Thank you J. Johnson, you seem to grasp the problem. As I stated, I do not live in the global north. What someone in the US/UK, etc may have access to, does not mean that others can access it. Tying a citation to one instance of a document, like the DOI, limits accessibility. There are very often multiple access points to a single document. Giving broader information on where the source can be found improves the ability of both writers and readers to obtain source materials. If I am writing an anchor article, such as WLM, removing links to citations or altering them to links that I may not be able to access makes it far more difficult to write the biographies of the redlinked people in the article. While citing a DOI may allow someone who cannot access the link I used to access the source, it is also likely that it won't, leaving them searching for another point of access. I get that technicians and writers/researchers don't speak the same language, but we can always try to understand each other if our goal is improvement of the encyclopedia.

For journals including Publisher and Location is considered over-linking and thus considered to be incorrect. This is especially true for thing such J Chem Phys or J Phys Chem where they are super easy to find online. For obscure journals (which seem to be very common in the articles you are discussing--seriously they are hard to find if at all), it might be best to include some extra contact information in the |id= since en.wikipedia.org has decided that to remove publisher and location for all journals.

@SusunW: and as a long time editor and person interested in Scientometrics, academia, technical writing and library science, I can tell you that absolutely no one ever includes journal locations and publishers when citing journals. No style guide recommends doing so out there, and for good reason: The information is pointless and doesn't help anyone locate anything. Whether it's me in Canada, or someone in Djibouti, no one will look up e.g. Signs and ever need the information that it's published in New York or Syracuse or Philadelphia or London or Milan or Chicago to read the article or access them. Likewise, that Journal of Physics is published by the IOP is not information anyone needs to care about when accessing those articles. If you're at a library, journals aren't catalogue by publishers. If you're online, you DOIs and websites. The only time the location or publisher might ever be useful is if you have two or more journals named the same way, e.g. Open Medicine, and then you're better off disambiguating them via ISSN.

Headbomb for the last decade, I have lived in various places in Latin America and the Caribbean. In no place that I lived was there a public library, so going into a library and "looking it up" is an impossibility. Most publishings from this region are not listed in World Cat (or digitized), as possibly you have seen me post at Women in Red. When repeatedly I have sourcing from RS stating that various persons have published 200-300 books and articles and there are 0 entries in Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed, World Cat, or any other compilation system, you understand that it is part of the skew of systemic bias toward the global north. While "absolutely no one" might use this information in your location, the publisher and location are the primary way that I find sources from journals. If I can find the publisher, I can often back into the ISSN, if there is one, or sometimes find an accessible link. With an ISSN I can determine if there is a library which holds the work and ask Megalibrarygirl to try to find it. If that doesn't work, I try to find a Wikipedian who lives in that area to photograph the source or I write to the publisher to see if they will copy and send it to me. Yes, it is a lot of work, but it is the reality in much of the world. Open knowledge platforms should help overcome the difficulties of research, not reinforce the problems, but we cannot do that if people refuse to recognize that the diversity in the world doesn't often make single solutions viable.

Again, that's what the DOI is for (and occasionally ISSNs when the journal isn't obvious). And if something isn't listed in Scopus/Google Scholar/whatever it's not knowing that something is published in Madrid vs Chicago vs Montreal vs Shanghai that will help you find it. [12] brings things closer to how citations should be presented (possibly with misfires when cite magazine / cite web should be used rather than cite journal), and that's a good thing.

Not at all. You have confused WP:V with WP:N. Verifiability requires reliability, but neither is the same criterion as notability. The latter is about "significant attention by the world at large and over a period of time". So it is quite possible to have a journal (likely very specialized) that is well-known and highly respected in a narrow field of experts, and has published articles relevant to some topic, but which has not gained "significant attention by the world at large".

I ran into the same issue. Sometimes I run the bot through an article twice because it appears in multiple reference cleanup required sections and I notice that the bot would add a page number with regular hyphen (-), then clean it up later with an en dash(–). Examples are [14][15] and [16][17]. If the intention of the bot is to have en dashes for page numbers, maybe it could do that when adding it so it does not have to make the subsequent edit again. -- AquaDTRS (talk) 20:07, 6 September 2018 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-09-06T20:07:00.000Z","author":"AquaDTRS","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-AquaDTRS-2018-09-06T20:07:00.000Z-Bot_can't_decide_which_dash_to_use","replies":["c-AManWithNoPlan-2018-09-09T21:01:00.000Z-AquaDTRS-2018-09-06T20:07:00.000Z"]}}-->

In case a DOI does not resolve (i.e. is broken/inactive), check if the DOI has more than one forward-slash. If it does, remove the second and all content after it.

Should we really remove |url= simply because the URL has a known doi in it? I think if the URL is a PDF file, it is worth keeping since it is linking to the journal article directly (as open source).

I'm not quite following the argument here; why is a PDF with a DOI in its URL any more likely to be open source than an HTML page with a DOI in its URL?

Sorry, my bad. Not open source - open access. If it is a PDF-link it most likely links directly to a freely available version, while the identifiers (such as DOI) might link to a paywall.

• This edit had a bunch of problems, some of which looked like the bot mistaking books for journal articles. Check my subsequent edits for what I reversed.
• This edit. The bot converted a cite web to a cite journal. The linked document was a book. (It was also the wrong URL, but the correct reference was not a journal article either.)

• In this edit the amendment to the citation between the <ref name="Lāmmerzahl"> … </ref> tags is mangled. Although the item cited isn't really an issue of a "journal", the problem here isn't with the bot's substitution of "journal" for "book", but with the choice of "Gyros" for the title of the supposed journal. The item cited is actually one of an aperiodically issued series of "Lecture Notes", and "Gyros" is simply the first word in the title of that issue. There seems to me to be no ideal way for any of the citation templates to cover this situation, but this seems to me to be among the best of a few reasonably acceptable alternatives.

There are no plans to generate a new series of edits that have no effect on what users see. In many cases website is better choice, so a mass revert would be disruptive. Lastly, no one has volunteered to do it who is able to do it. Also, the bot itself never does edits that are not under the guidence of a human AManWithNoPlan (talk) 23:36, 16 September 2018 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-09-16T23:36:00.000Z","author":"AManWithNoPlan","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-AManWithNoPlan-2018-09-16T23:36:00.000Z-Keith_D-2018-09-16T20:30:00.000Z","replies":["c-AManWithNoPlan-2018-09-20T14:15:00.000Z-AManWithNoPlan-2018-09-16T23:36:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thanks for reporting the issue. I believe this might occur for a number of articles which I ran the bot through, although I won't know which ones until the list of articles with invalid dates gets populated again in the next cycle. Also, I was thinking maybe the bot could include a feature to check for an invalid year before it replaces it, just in case it finds a set of numbers that look like dates elsewhere again. -- AquaDTRS (talk) 19:38, 6 September 2018 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-09-06T19:38:00.000Z","author":"AquaDTRS","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-AquaDTRS-2018-09-06T19:38:00.000Z-Invalid_dates_caused_by_arXiv_data_containing_page_numbers_that_look_like_dates","replies":["c-AManWithNoPlan-2018-09-07T01:53:00.000Z-AquaDTRS-2018-09-06T19:38:00.000Z"]}}-->

I think (though I could be wrong) that |orig-year= should be converted to |year= only if (a) |year= is empty and (b) |orig-year= contains only a valid four-digit year. Both must be true.

I don't see this as a CITEVAR thing (and would vehemently challenge you to defend it there beyond the support for |vauthors= and the like for name-formatting or the use of CS1 versus CS2).

Anyway, this is a feature IMO, as the DOI may not always resolve to the same named identifier. --Izno (talk) 20:45, 24 September 2018 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-09-24T20:45:00.000Z","author":"Izno","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Izno-2018-09-24T20:45:00.000Z-Bot_adds_redundant_parameters","replies":["c-Kim_Post-2018-09-24T21:33:00.000Z-Izno-2018-09-24T20:45:00.000Z","c-AManWithNoPlan-2018-09-27T14:35:00.000Z-Izno-2018-09-24T20:45:00.000Z"]}}-->

I'm not sure I understand your response. It's a CITEVAR issue because editors may disagree not only on how to format citations, but on what information to include in them. For example, whether to specify the medium is part of the "style" of a citation; the word is used in policy pages with that meaning. Do you mean that the {{cite}} template should only be used with one specific style? As best I know "Citation Style 1" refers primarily to formatting and is not a complete citation style of its own.

I make the suggestion because this is a specifically avoidable example of the "add as much as I can find" approach the bot uses. Other cases are not as easily detected; multiple identifiers may sometimes be useful. Unless the bot knows what citation style (if any consistent one) is in use then it often won't be clear whether adding an identifier is helpful or harmful to style conformance.

Why do editors curate the bibliography if not for the benefit of the reader? (I'd concede that redundant identifiers have some potential use to editors.) I searched the archives for "identifier" and the closest parallel seems to be the removal of ASINs that were redundant with ISBNs.

|page= and |pages= are aliases.

• |page=13-25 should be converted to |pages=13–25
• If any of |page=/|pages=/|at= is set, remove the others (if they are empty / redundant)

|year= and |date= are aliases.

• |date=2008 should be converted to |year=2008
• If any either of |year=/|date= is set, remove the other (if it is empty)

|via= online makes sense if a URL is provided, so remove it if there is no url provided.

So a citation like

{{cite journal |last=Smith |first=John |date=2007 |year= |title=Foobar |journal=Barfoo Journal |volume=3 |issue=4 |page=34-44 |pages= |via=}}

cleans up to

|date= is not a a true alias of |year= – true aliases cause the 'more than one of param and param' error message as here with |work= and |journal=:

Because there are occasions when both |date= and |year= are required (or desired), they cannot be aliases. I agree with Editor Izno that |date= should be preferred over |year= when both are not required.

More generally, the thing to do will be to use the Citoid API to extract information from any relevant URL.

I'd like the option to have a 'rebuild references' when they are so crappy we need to TNT them (for whatever reason), and start anew. Two options would be present

• &rebuild=multiline (multiline option)
• &rebuild=inline (inline option)

This would present things in a 'standardized' parameter order with 'standardized' whitespace

• From past experience, this type of behaviour has the potential to be unpopular. I'm not sure that it's quite within the remit of the bot, as it stands. If you think it's important, I would suggest opening a new bot request for approval to determine the parameters under which this behaviour would be acceptable.

The function of the bot just a day agao where it did not add titles to cite webs and cite news was perfect in my view.

What do you suggest? The template supports two different title parameters and then shows them both. We added code that prevents duplicates, but in these cases the script title and title are very different (or maybe it basically one is printed and the other is cursive styling of the same words). Perhaps:

if (has script-title and new title is not all western characters) then
  ignore new title
else 
  add title
 end if

Yes, that would be a nice solution. However, a "non-script" title isn't necessary when a script-title is present, and in most cases where script-title is used, there is no "western title" availible at all, only a |trans-title=.

if (has script-title) then
  ignore new title
else 
  add title
 end if

I'm currently using https://tools.wmflabs.org/citations/category.php?cat=1980_births&slow=1 which makes one edit and then stops (this seems to be a bug from above discussions). I like to make the bot run on random pages and then stop when it has made an edit, I, however, don't want to specify a category. I'd love to be able to use a link such as https://tools.wmflabs.org/citations/random.php and just have the bot find a page where it will make an edit.

That would be cool. The bot would grab a random page and then make the edit. I tried https://tools.wmflabs.org/citations/doibot.php?edit=toolbar&slow=1&page=Special:Random and it did not just work, so new code would be needed.

Nah, in the meantime I'll just use the (broken) category API and let the bot run on a category with lots of articles, since it will continue to run on articles until it finds an article where an edit will be made, as with running it on individual pages using Special:Random, there is a great chance of no edits being made.

The bot historically logged each page that it visited to a database, and could be run on the page that had been longest without a visit. The database didn't make the migration to ToolForge, but some of the code still exists. Something like what you suggest would be a good step towards the bot running unsupervised again (which had to be discontinued because I didn't have AManWithNoPlan to keep up with bug reports!)

Complain to the publisher about giving bad meta data to crossref (and you will be ignored most likely).

Can't we make a manual "fix" with this publisher? If 10.3366/, ensure there is a space before any parantesis. If not, consider adding one. Or something like that? Or, if htere is no space, make the bot try and scrape the landing page and see if the HTML there has a space?

No way, no how that we a going to make a website correct the crossref data. Also, no space before a ( is correct in many contexts.
