--- Comment #6 from Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) legoktm.wikipedia@gmail.com --- Hello,
Thank you for your interest in my proposal.
I have done some testing.
Your option does not do what I expected.
Here is a real-world example. I want to update the interwikis for year 15. So I do something like: python interwiki.py -lang:pt -noredirect 15 \ -hint:aa,ab,af,an,ang,ar,arc,arz,ast,av,ay,az,ba,bat-smg,bcl,be,be-x-old,bg,br,bs,bug,bxr,ca,cbk-zam,ceb,chr,co,cr,crh,cs,csb,cv,cy \ -hint:da,de,diq,dsb,dv,ee,el,en,eo,es,et,eu,ext,fi,fiu-vro,fo,fr,frp,fur,fy,ga,gd,gl,glk,gn,got,gu,gv,haw,he,hi,hif,hsb,hu,hy \ -hint:ia,id,ie,ig,ilo,io,is,it,iu,jv,ka,kab,kg,kk,ks,ku,kw,ky,la,lb,li,lij,lmo,ln,lo,lv,map-bms,mdf,mg,mi,mk,ml,mn,ms,mt,mzn \ -hint:na,nah,nap,nds,nds-nl,nl,nn,no,nov,nrm,nv,ny,oc,om,os,pa,pag,pam,pap,pdc,pih,pl,pms,pt,qu,rm,rmy,ro,roa-rup \ -hint:sa,sc,scn,sco,sd,se,sg,sh,si,simple,sk,sl,sm,so,sq,sr,ss,stq,su,sv,sw,szl,ta,te,tet,tg,tk,tl,tpi,tr,tt,ty,uk,uz \ -hint:vec,vi,vls,vo,wa,war,yi,yo,zea,zu
(plus some other hints I did not include for simplicity).
The page ty:15 contains wrong interwiki rights, they point to year 14.
So I am asked to answer I huge number of questions, e.g. between no:14 and no:15
With the new option, I expected that the link no:14 is ignored since no:15 was provided as a hint and it exists.
Is that more clear?
Best regards,
Marc-Etienne
