Correcting the en.wikiversity API submission
I've proposed listeriabot to be activated for en.wikiversity: Wikiversity:Colloquium#Listeriabot
I know very little about bots. Is only Magnus able to apply as bot owner for bot status per the post above? I'd love to get it activated on wikiversity as soon as possible to automate several manual lists (e.g. 1, 2, 3).
@magnusmanske I'm happy to learn how to set up and maintain this on WV if that reduces the work for you as a maintainer. I'm keen to get it up and running asap - I just need to be given a crash course in getting it started.
Could I check if there's any documentation/readme that I've missed on setting this up on a new wiki? I can find documentation on how to use it once it's already running, but noting on getting it activated yet.
Attempting to just submit to the API with links like the one below doesn't seem to work:
https://listeria.toolforge.org/index.php?action=update&lang=en&project=wikiversity&page=User:Evolution_and_evolvability/sandbox
It did seem to create an account through (https://en.wikiversity.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&logid=3253404)
Is there something server-side that's preventing it? Or maybe it's just the case that the bot account isn't registered on enwv?
The bot account should now be permitted on enwikiversity.
The test on meta works fine, but the test on enwv results in the following message:
Done.
Last line: OK: User:Evolution_and_evolvability/sandbox not edited
So something must be going wrong with save_wikitext_to_page. It needs to submit to en.wikiversity.org/w/api.php. Is the wikitext being sent to the api incorrect? Does it need a token?
I've also added a query at the Rust users forum to see if anyone there is able to help on this, since it's outside my coding abilities.
