| This bot is run by ]. If you have any questions about image tagging, ask them at ]. | |||
| == Description and purpose == | |||
| OrphanBot's current task is to remove images that are in ] and ] from articles, so that administrators can delete them. | |||
| Images in the article, category, and portal namespaces will be removed. | |||
| Images in the wikipedia, mediawiki, mediawiki talk, template, help, and help talk namespaces will be left alone, but a message will be logged on the bot's talk page. | |||
| Images in all other namespaces will be completely ignored. | |||
| Additionally, OrphanBot inspects newly-uploaded images for ones lacking source information, a license tag, or a fair-use rationale if one is needed. | |||
| OrphanBot was written in Perl using the ] code for accessing Misplaced Pages. | |||
| ===In simple terms:=== | |||
| What OrphanBot does: | |||
| #OrphanBot tags images with no description as {{tl|no source}} | |||
| #OrphanBot removes images with certain tags from articles using them. | |||
| #OrphanBot notifies the presumed uploader of the impending deletion. | |||
| What OrphanBot does ''not'' do: | |||
| #OrphanBot does not delete images. | |||
| #OrphanBot does not tag images for deletion. | |||
| #OrphanBot does not evaluate fair-use claims. | |||
| #OrphanBot does not edit templates. | |||
| #OrphanBot does not edit user pages. | |||
| #OrphanBot does not tag unused fair-use images. That's ]. | |||
| #OrphanBot can not check for copyright so please put in a description. | |||
| #OrphanBot is not responsible for every image that gets deleted. | |||
| ===Current development status=== | |||
| Working on improved bot. New behaviors: | |||
| #Better Wiki-access code for increased reliability. | |||
| #Automatic detection and tagging of images with no fair-use rationale. | |||
| ===Current task status=== | |||
| * Cleanup of ] and ] every day. | |||
| * Automatic tagging of no-source, no-rationale, and untagged images is ongoing. | |||
| * Assorted tasks by request | |||
| *:Current: Tagging unused by-permission and non-commercial-use images for deletion. | |||
| ===Bot statistics=== | |||
| As of June 1, 2006, OrphanBot has inspected 63,976 images, removing images from 33,698 articles, 1,266 portals, and 64 categories. The bot has handed out 36,988 warnings to 23,925 users. | |||
