Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Анима (n-fran) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Manual mode in fixing_redirects.py

Initial Comment: It is necessary to enter opportunity manual, not automatic work for this script. Reasons:

1) Let's say B is the redirection, and A - article name. When the bot looks articles, he automatically corrects [[B]] on [[A|B]] that doesn't bring any benefit and can complicate reading wikitext for inexperienced users. In my opinion, in a case when [[B]] is a name of the redirection, the bot shouldn't make change on the page.

2) In the Russian Wikipedia it isn't recommended to correct the redirection in some cases. Probably, in other language sections there are similar rules.
