Large swath of AI content

[edit]

Hi -- crossposting this here fromthe AI Cleanup project as it is most likely to reach subject matter experts here.

Over the last year or so,Bookleo made a lot of major revisions to book articles that are all but certainly AI-generated, given that one of their edits left in thechatbot response.

Compared to otheren masse AI edits, this case is probaby high priority because literary authors.... uhhhhh, do not tend to like AI, and so the shitstorm potential if this escapes containment is greater than normal.Gnomingstuff (talk)21:06, 16 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Will take a deeper look later, but I randomly spot checked one addition (Special:diff/1245775804), and already found a fabricated citation:

Wirth-Cauchon, J. (2012).The Known World and the Literary Historiography of Slavery. Critique: Studies in Contemporary Fiction, 53(2), 135-151.

Critique 53(2), 135-151 is an entirely different article (The End of the Road vs. End of the Road: The Perils of Adaptation), and an exact search of "The Known World and the Literary Historiography of Slavery" shows no results other than arwiki.ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me!21:24, 16 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Yikes. This needs to be looked at.PARAKANYAA (talk)21:30, 16 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@ARandomName123, @PARAKANYAA, I'm just noticing this now, did either of you end up cleaning up this mess? --asilvering (talk)02:41, 13 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Asilvering No I did not. I am afraid I do not have much experience in that kind of cleanup.PARAKANYAA (talk)02:45, 13 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Asilvering: No, got distracted by another AI cleanup, but @NicheSports has cleaned up quite a lot of it (thanks!). There's some more discussion about what was done over atWikipedia talk:WikiProject AI Cleanup.ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me!20:22, 13 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Asilvering @ARandomName123 I've handled all of their edits back throughSpecial:Diff/1279470867 and a handful before that. By my count there are about 30 articles left to handle, almost all of which are about books, plus another ~15 articles to which they only added infoboxes. The further back you go the harder it is to revert. I had to rewriteDavid Bitel due to extensive subsequent edits by other users. The past few weeks I've been focusing on patrolling the 1325 edit filter; I need to come back to this.NicheSports (talk)22:00, 13 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@NicheSports: Did up toErasure (novel) (also didThe Hemingses of Monticello which had hallucinated references). I believe one of their oldest large AI-written changes isSpecial:diff/1243667323. The ones prior to that seem to be mainly copyedits. Some seem a bit problematic, but not on the scale of the later edits.ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me!03:20, 14 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Books with missing cover

[edit]

Adding this again, because a LOT of progress has been made. @PARAKANYAA and others were involved here last time. With a lot of effort the category now has only 1896 listings of books with missing book cover images right now!!! This is the lowest it has probably been in YEARS. I'd love to see it get below 1,000 though because then that is a super manageable level which can be dealt with easily over time. That has always been my goal, just get it to be a reasonable and manageable level, not zero, but manageable. I think a few hundred to 1,000 is that level.

If anyone can help pitch in, especially on the books dated 1700 CE or OLDER, that would be greatly appreciated. Those are the hardest ones for me.Category:Books with missing coverIljhgtn (talk)20:06, 12 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Down to 1856 now. Anyway able to help with this?Iljhgtn (talk)05:19, 17 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
