Polish Roots: Mass change Project Box to Sticker?

Question

I have quite a few profiles that have {{Polish Roots}}, which was for a while the only sticker for polish ancestry. Now it seems there is a new sticker for Polish ancestry ({{Polish Roots Sticker}}) while the former sticker is being used as a project box for Poland project-managed profiles.

I am now getting a boatload of error 931 suggestions because my profiles are not project-managed.

Can edit bot fix this or is there some other way to make mass updates on profiles with the {{Polish Roots}} sticker to change them to {{Polish Roots Sticker}}?

Answer 1

This was done for many other projects. The request must come from project leaders, so discuss it in the project.

This is the report for the project. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:DBE_Project_Status#WikiTree-59_Polish_Roots_Project

Instructions are at the beginning of the page. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:DBE_Project_Status#Instructions

Usually row 12 is changed to stickers by EditBOT after the review and approval done by the project.

Answer 2

If Polish Roots is used for Project, then Edit Bot can't change all of them to the sticker because it doesn't know which ones are for the Project vs the sticker.  The problem exists on many Projects that had Sticker changes made. Project Coordinators, I think, are slowly going through all of those errors to determine what should be Project protected vs not.  It sounds like it has to be done manually.

Answer 3

Hi - As project leader for Poland Project, aka Polish Roots, I agree. I will tackle Aleš's plans with edit_bot  with him. Thanks for bringing this up.

Answer 4

Frank, it looks like Aleš's Edit Bot is changing the stickers now. He says it will take about 10 hours.
