Description

Using imagetransfer.py to move files (to Commons) produces a malformed original upload log table - the table and column headings are missing. Check this upload. Needed fix.

Command line output:

pwb.py imagetransfer -file:transfer.txt -lang:en -tolang:commons -tofamily:commons -keepname

I think this is caused by the page.py's getFileVersionHistoryTable

You meant the missing

{| class="wikitable"

right?

getFileVersionHistory works for me as expected:

>>> import pwb, pywikibot as py
>>> s = py.Site('en')
>>> p = py.FilePage(s, 'File:Kit right arm woodlandswellington09h.png')
>>> h = p.getVersionHistoryTable()
>>> h
>>> print h
{| class="wikitable"

Could you verify.

Se the correction.

not only this, also the column headings.

Yes; tested this snippet and seems to work.

Perhaps this conclusion was premature:

Probably the issue is in imagetransfer.py itself as I originally reported in the task title.

In past I used this script to transfer a lot of files from one wikipedia to another and it worked just fine (example), though it was via compat (I'm missing compat :( ).

Right now I've tested everything on a fresh PWB install on labs. The error still persist. This file was transferred with the fresh PWB from labs (imagetransfer.py script), and I had to do such a fix to repair the original upload log table.

Ah, getFileVersionHistoryTable() is used here and it wents wrong.
