Reopening Bot Request
[edit]{{Edit request}} Hi there,
I was away on holiday when this was discussed - apologies that I wasn't available to explain. I think there was an error on my end as I didn't make my request entirely clear.
The purpose of the bot is not to EDIT but to manually harvest data from Wikimedia Commons. I have used code to this end via the API but the API has a cap of 500 items, whilst the group of items I need to harvest data from is ~2500 items.
The code that the bot uses is python and it prints the harvested data into JSON.
Please let me know if you have any questions at all. Dactylantha (talk) 20:13, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
- You were on holiday from 13 December to 22 January?
- Please elaborate why this cannot be achieved with the dump, with a labs database access account, or with 500 entries API queries. Krd 09:07, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
