Hi @MarcoAurelio, could you please create a page similar to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:EranBot/Copyright/User_whitelist on eswiki? Same location.
It lists trusted users whose edits don't appear on CopyPatrol. I tried creating the page (with only the first line of text "Add usernames alphabetically, one per line, with the format * [[User:Example]]") but it didn't let me create the page for some reason.

Sure. If the bot does need to edit or benefit from a botflag I can also
arrange the BRFA.

@MarcoAurelio: I don't think that will be needed as it doesn't actually write anything to the wiki.

Okay then. If the bot flag is needed later so he can benefit from apihighlimits, etc. we can arrange that later. There's also a global apihighlimits-requestor global user group for non-editting bots that need to do heavy API queries as well.

Probably an AbuseFilter we set up to prevent new users from creating subpages for other users. I've created https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usuario:EranBot/Copyright/User_whitelist as requested. Feel free to edit it. I've added the eswiki role account to contact oversighters.

Regards.

The tool is stuck on the same problem that happened a while ago. It keeps reconnecting to IRC if it doesn't get any responses for 1000 seconds. See this commit.
I think it's time we handle this properly. According to @eranroz:

I think it is not good to always get it to higher number, but either to completely remove it/adjust it per wiki/get a reliable way to validate we dont miss updates (such as querying the SQL revision table as an alternative).

Adjusting it per-wiki (as a param in the cronjob) might be the easiest solution at the moment. This would still need a bit of refactoring in Eranbot.

@kaldari I created T157120: Refactor Eranbot to adjust wait time before IRC reconnection per-wiki as a follow-up task.

es,wiki is very active, it seems weird it connected at a time with no edit for 1000 seconds (more than 15'). Is it connecting to the right channel? What nick is it using?

The bot uses irc://irc.wikimedia.org/#{LANG}-wikipedia so it should be irc://irc.wikimedia.org/#es-wikipedia and the nickname is Eranboteswikipedia

That explains why the bot receives no feed. The channel name is
#es.wikipedia; with a dot not a dash, as with other projects:
#meta.wikimedia, #es.wikibooks and so on.

I'm sorry I meant #es.wikipedia: see https://github.com/valhallasw/plagiabot/blob/master/IRCRCListener.py#L88

It is in the channel, and is indeed entering and leaving every few minutes. There is however plenty of rc entries:

But what is the problem?

It clearly isn't that it doesn't get any responses for 1000 seconds…

But what is the problem?

I don't think anyone actually knows at this point. Would probably require some debugging of eranbot to find out.

Seems like it's working now: https://tools.wmflabs.org/copypatrol/es
