I'm just scan-backing a few excerpts from this work; if you feel I am stepping on your toes I will leave it alone :) —Beleg Âlt ^BT (talk) 15:43, 4 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Chrisguise: Does this still need to be done? Inductiveload is not likely to respond since they have been inactive for 8 months, but I could do it if there's still a need. SnowyCinema (talk) 17:36, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Someone has done the 'Fables of the Frivolous' changes but the 'Susan Hopley' one still needs doing. Thanks, Chrisguise (talk) 18:06, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Probably due to the Grid Engine Shutdown Apocalypse given the timing. But, hey, the good news is you get a completely novel new Kubernetes wrapper and orchestration system to deal with in the process, so… yay? Xover (talk) 09:39, 18 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Xover Is there a gridengine migration task ? Sohom (talk) 16:12, 25 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Sohom Datta: Good point. There's no Phab task and it's not on the Grid Engine List of Shame, so pagelister is probably already on k8s and this was a different hickup. It looks like it's back up now in any case, ether on its own or because Inductiveload kicked it. Xover (talk) 17:20, 25 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

It might need one more kick/code change, per below the archive.org IIIF endpoint has changed and the tool needs to be updated to use that endpoint. Sohom (talk) 17:24, 25 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

It'll need more than a kick for that. The IA change is from v2 to v3 of the IIIF format, which kicks in when you switch to the new official endpoint. In any case, I expect the old endpoint will keep working as a redirect for a while. Xover (talk) 20:16, 25 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

The links used in the relevant code for img_link and jump to file etc. will need updating.. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 23:59, 24 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Forgive me if there's documentation for this somewhere and I just haven't found it. I and others have just transscribed an opthamology textbook, it's from the Library of Congress via the Internet Archive, and it has missing-image templates for each image.

Is there any way I can auto-insert the images at successive missing-image template locations? They'd be fairly good unmodified, but I could also subsequently use the Commons API to download, cleanup, and re-upload them. Or should I be using the Image Uploader icon in the toolbar of the edit pane for each page? I'm a bit confused by that as it asks me for an image file, and I just want to point it at the IA and get their best images.

These images mostly have no captions beyond "Fig. [number]", but I could also add descriptive titles, including subsequently, using the Commons "Move" tool.

I have a horrible feeling that I've already asked you about this, and you answered, but I can't find the answers and don't recall them. I will write up my experiences in Help:Wikisource Image Uploader tool this time, if you don't mind. And I will not be in the least offended if your answer to this is an RTFM link. Or nothing, really, I'm sure I can make some workpath work somehow, I'm just being lazy and trying to save myself messy trial and error. Thank you for all the effort you have put into image tools.

Found the manual. Don't know how I missed it. Misunderstood entirely, my apologies. HLHJ (talk) 01:41, 20 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
