User talk:DavidB4-bot/HTTPS URL update project

Run #1 has been completed as best I can. Our category structure is a little broken right now, so because I am relying on it, some pages could have been missed. About 6,000 pages were edited in this run. At my convenience, I plan to review the results, reset, do a little more research on on other links which should be updated, and do another run. As always, I welcome suggestions and criticisms. Thank you 1990'sguy for you help and feedback! --David B ^(TALK) 10:51, 27 September 2018 (EDT)

Hello DavidB4, to be very clear, I don't mean any pressure/complaints/etc., but I'm wondering if or when you plan on doing the next batch of URL updates? --1990'sguy (talk) 16:23, 3 February 2019 (EST)

(also, just a reminder that the Washington Examiner links have not been updated yet) --1990'sguy (talk) 16:25, 3 February 2019 (EST)

Hello DavidB4, I would rather not copy-paste every single URL I added earlier today to the new section you created. I'm sure you'll clear it up, but it's a bit confusing right now. --1990'sguy (talk) 00:26, 4 April 2019 (EDT)

Hi, I just noticed that I never responded to your last comment--sorry about that! I have been distracted with other bot work, and real-world responsibilities, rather than working on this project.

There is certainly no need for you to move links around. I figured I would just finish the ones in the table, then use the lists going forward. The table is a little more visually clean, but I expect it will be faster for us to just paste in lists of URLs rather than always needing to add them to the table. We can try this for a bit, anyway, unless you prefer that we keep using the old method.

I don't mind, but I don't think every new URL I added in the past couple of days (in the table) is also in the section you created -- several are not (unless I missed them). I'm just wondering about that since it looks to me like a discrepancy (and I'm not saying it necessarily is one). --1990'sguy (talk) 19:19, 4 April 2019 (EDT)

That is probably the case. The list I added up top were some I collected; some are probably repeats of yours, but not all. I'm not as wories about having multiple entries as getting ones to use. I'm sure there are many repeats, even within the list itself which I just added. I will go through these more carefully, weed out duplicates, and set up the bot for another run. I have not attempted to copy your list up to that section, I will just use them where they are. Apologies for the confusion; this is not a perfect science, at least the way I'm doing it. Thanks for the assistance! --DavidB4 ^(TALK) 19:40, 4 April 2019 (EDT)

I have the bot set up to do the next batch. Any others you want added before I do? I can do another batch later, but it would be nice to do as many at once as possible. --DavidB4 ^(TALK) 23:15, 4 April 2019 (EDT)

None on the top of my mind right now, but I haven't checked my "Donald Trump achievements" articles, which I think is a good place to look for websites that haven't been updated. --1990'sguy (talk) 23:23, 4 April 2019 (EDT)

At first glance, anyway, it looks like you have been policing those pretty well. I just looked at a couple achievements pages, and didn't find to add. I found a few more, and will keep looking a bit before running this next batch. --DavidB4 ^(TALK) 00:04, 5 April 2019 (EDT)
