Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: automatic
Programming language(s): AWB
Source code available: AWB
Function overview: Replace file links to
Non-free content policy with links to
Wikipedia:Non-free content
Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria
Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate):
Edit period(s): One time run to clear the backlog, then as needed
Estimated number of pages affected: ~290 to begin with
Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): No
Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): Yes
Function details: According to
Wikipedia:Most-wanted articles#1–100, at the end of march there were 289 links to
Non-free content policy. A similar number is currently present. The vast majority of incoming links are from the file namespace, and should instead link to
Wikipedia:Non-free content
Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. Compare
File:Marc anthony-marc anthony-album.jpg (redlink to mainspace) with
File:CleanGenius logo.png (proper link to policy). This task would only edit in the file namespace, would would not change the display of piped links, only of the links' target.
The policy is at Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. — JJMC89 ( T· C) 02:24, 17 April 2019 (UTC) reply
For files using standardized FUR templates (e.g. {{
Non-free use rationale album cover}}
, {{
Non-free use rationale logo}}
), you should consider blanking the override fields. I spot checked a few, and the "erroneous" text is effectively identical to the default text. This will decrease our maintenance overhead if we ever decide to change said text again. -

Changes that are typically considered substantive affect something visible to readers and consumers of Wikipedia, such as the output text or HTML in ways that make a difference to the audio or visual rendering of a page in web browsers, screen readers, when printed, in PDFs, or when accessed through other forms of assistive technology (e.g. removing a deleted category, updating a template parameter, changing whitespace in bulleted vertical lists)- adding such links change the output text. It provides useful links to both the relevant wikipedia policy, and a general explanation of fair use. -- DannyS712 ( talk) 23:46, 17 April 2019 (UTC) reply
Approved for trial (25 edits). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. Let's see this in action,
DannyS712. As usual, take all the time that you need in completing this trial and thank you for your patience. I hope to process what's left of the backlog over the next couple of days. --

Approved.. Under normal circumstances, I would prefer to leave the close for someone else. However, given the backlog, lack of recent BAG activity (myself included), and the fact that this task is uncontroversial and based on how well the trial went, I am inclined to make an exception for this. As per usual, if amendments to - or clarifications regarding - this approval are needed, please start a discussion on the talk page and ping. -- TheSandDoctor Talk 08:05, 27 April 2019 (UTC) reply
