Category: General Group: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: redirect.py fails to gracefully handle protected pages Initial Comment: Apparently, when redirect.py encounters a broken redirect which it can't edit, it stops processing further entries on the list. For background, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard#Double… http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Guettarda&diff=1304… The code should be fixed to gracefully skip such pages, as apparently some other parts of pywikipedia already do. (It would also be nice if redirect.py could be restricted to only process pages in certain namespaces, but that's for another bug entry.) -- Ilmari Karonen (nospam(a)vyznev.net) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Ilmari_Karonen ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: 2008-02-27 09:25 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=855050 Originator: NO Closed because no further complaints since r4611 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Russell Blau (russblau) Date: 2007-11-28 09:50 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=855050 Originator: NO r4611 tries to catch all potential errors and proceed with the rest of the list; please update this if errors continue. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2007-05-17 11:42 Message: Logged In: NO Actually, it does continue to handle redirects - just sometimes, the HTML source will be posted in the terminal window, which tends to be messy and annoying. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=603138&aid=172042…
