Function overview: Carabidae.org appears to have long been used as the authoritative reference for Carabidae taxa. Carabidae.org has disabled direct links used in references. Qbugbot 6 would replace references with dead Carabidae.org links with corresponding references to Catalogue of Life.
Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic
Source code available: Yes
Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Tree_of_Life#Carabidae.org_has_left_the_building
Edit period(s): One time run, possibly in segments, with a few small additional runs to pick up missed pages.
Estimated number of pages affected: 6,800 - 7,500
Namespace(s): Mainspace/Articles
Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes
Function details:
- 1. Qbugbot 6 will process Wikipedia articles for Carabidae taxa that are also found in Catalogue of life.
- 2. If a page has a "{{Cite web}}" reference that includes a link to carabidae.org/carabidae/..., a dead link, it will be replaced with a reference to that taxa in Catalogue of Life. There are 6,837 articles that meet this criteria. Most are stub class articles.
- 3. Some articles with disambiguation titles (such as Dolichus (beetle)) may be missed, and some of those will be collected for processing.
- 4. Articles not found in Catalogue of Life may be for invalid taxa, or may be valid but missing from Catalogue of Life. These will be handled manually when possible.
- 5. 288 articles have valid reference links to carabidae.org that go to a subscription page, (http://carabidae.org/taxa/anthia-weber for example). Tentatively, these will be left alone, but it's a simple matter to replace them with a Catalogue of Life reference if that's what people prefer.
Discussion
Excellent. Thanks for taking this on. I would suggest that there is no benefit in keeping any links to Carabidae.org at all, such as the one to Anthia, as the paywall prevents display of all relevant information. Just switch them all to CoL? --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 09:33, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
