:::{{ping|Jonesey95}} By "renderable using CS1", I meant without errors. Also, I mentioned the phrase only in the last comment. The documentation is more specific.

:::I know the error message should say what extra properties does the reference contain, or which needed properties it does not, but I will fix that later. Maybe the module should leave reporting a missing title for now, as a temporary solution. [[User:Janhrach|Janhrach]] ([[User talk:Janhrach|talk]]) 14:59, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

== Bot task: adding "title" to a reference url ==

It's Grumpy again; is there a bot that adds the title to a reference URL on Wikidata if its missing? It could simply scrape the HTML <nowiki><title></nowiki> tag. The results wouldn't be perfect, but of course they would be better than the current situation. The bot could leave a short message on the relevant talkpage explaining this is a bot action and humans are invited to make improvements where they see fit.

:I've asked on Wikidata. [[User:Janhrach|Janhrach]] ([[User talk:Janhrach|talk]]) 13:14, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

::{{ping|Janhrach}} I see your post [https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Project_chat#Bot-related_question here] but shouldn't we ask on [[WP:BOTREQ]] instead? [[User:Polygnotus|Polygnotus]] ([[User talk:Polygnotus|talk]]) 10:19, 28 October 2023 (UTC)

:::This is an intriguing idea, but it'd have to be handled with care. Bot messages on every talk where this happens is not handling with care (it's asking for "external links modified" 2.0). <span style="color:#AAA"><small>&#123;{u&#124;</small><span style="border-radius:9em;padding:0 5px;background:#088">[[User:Sdkb|<span style="color:#FFF">'''Sdkb'''</span>]]</span><small>}&#125;</small></span> ^{[[User talk:Sdkb|'''talk''']]} 13:41, 28 October 2023 (UTC)

:::{{ping|Polygnotus}} (I assume you meant [[d:WD:BOTREQ]]) The page says that asking on the Project Chat is preferable, so I decided to ask there first. [[User:Janhrach|Janhrach]] ([[User talk:Janhrach|talk]]) 19:30, 1 November 2023 (UTC)
