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: interwiki Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None
Priority: 3
Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: interwiki -ignore misbehaviour
Initial Comment: When working in -force mode, pages read from -ignorefile are not just ignored (as the option name suggests and it would be an expected behaviour) but are deleted from wherever they're found, so that the bot works the same way as in -neverlink for the given page titles. It would be more logical if the -ignore/-ignorefile option just ignored (skipped) these pages. We should have some other option for forced remove, something like -neverlink not only for a language, but also for lang:title combinations.

Message: just try -cleanup instead of -force to keep the links but ignore it from following (maybe it's a feature not a bug)
