Follow it anyway? ([y]es, [n]o) n should better be: WARNING: [[ksh:Metmaacher:Purbo T]] is in namespace 2, but [[dsb:Benutzer:Purbo T]] is in namespace 0. Follow it anyway? ([y]es, [n]o, [a]dd replacement) n Reason of the warning is an update of the language-file in the dsb wiki, which alters Benutzer -> Wužywar (away from the German fallback) Thus many previously set intwerwiki links need a namespace change. While this could be dealt with using a general search/replace, interwiki.py should not loose the interwiki links while it is operating before all links were adjusted. A manual replacement (hint) would be the ideal solution here. If possible, it would be nice to have a typein "user:" automatically expanded to "User:Purbo T" in such cases, but that is rather a gimmick. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Purodha B Blissenbach (purodha) Date: 2009-02-20 03:22 Message: Done with Revision 6381 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Purodha B Blissenbach (purodha) Date: 2008-02-29 13:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=46450 Originator: YES See also these two edits: http://mi.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:M%C4%81tauranga_huaota&diff=prev&oldid=45261 http://mi.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category%3AM%C4%81tauranga_huaota&diff=45262&oldid=45261 This gives another motivation, or justification, for the suggested feature. With the feature added: When seeing a possible solution, you could enter that solution immediately, saving time, server load and, more often than not, another bot run. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=603141&aid=1877143&group_id=93107 _______________________________________________ Pywikipedia-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/pywikipedia-l
