Initial Comment: if the link and description are the same except for capitalisation use link as link skipping description. Useful for cleaning up after capitalisation related redirects cleaning. Example: http://pl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=21129378&oldid=21129374&rci...

Message: Wouldn't it be a better way to fix that behavior in the main script? For example: I use a modificated solve_disambiguation.py which always uses the page link without the description for disambig pages which is recommended in de-wiki. Put it could cause problems with articles. The point is: you could not have any influence to cc but you may have it on fixing_redirects or solve_disambiguation as an option if using it in non-autonomous mode. And I coundn't say that this sort of spelling-correction alway works well.

Message: I use that in case we are moving pages due to the fact of misspelling or wrong capitalisation of article title. Then when fixing_redirects or using solve_disambiguation we have a proper link but the description stays wrong.

Message: I am not sure whether this is a good idea of cause this does spelling changes overruling human edits. If running this in autonomous mode we must enshure the result is always right. That's why I would like to wait for other comments.
