Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Daniel Barrett (djbarrett) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: weblinkchecker should ignore 401 unauthorized

Initial Comment: Please provide an option for weblinkchecker to ignore HTTP 401 (Unauthorized) errors. Realistically, pywikipedia will not have the same authorization credentials as a "real" wiki user, especially in corporate environments.

Some data: In our corporate wiki, out of 1500 unreachable links, over 1300 were "error 401" because the sites require Windows authentication that pywikipedia does not have.
