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: redirect Group: None

Status: Open Resolution: None

Priority: 5 Private: Yes Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: xqt (xqt) Summary: 2 redirects on a page: all replaced, instead the first only

Initial Comment: English Wikipedia: If a redirect page contains more than one redirect, redirect.py - on handling redirects which point to other redirects - doesn't work correctly, see [[en:ANSCA]] (AvocatoBot uses redirect.py): all redirects will be replaced, only the first should.

Maybe, replacement (in redirect.py) of text = self.site.redirectRegex().sub( '#%s %s' % (self.site.redirect(), targetPage.title(asLink=True, textlink=True)), oldText) by text = self.site.redirectRegex().sub( '#%s %s' % (self.site.redirect(), targetPage.title(asLink=True, textlink=True)), oldText, count = 1) could correct the error.

Message: It does not make any sense to have more than one redirect on a redirect page. The given sampe should become a disambig page.
