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: None Group: None Status: Open Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: https://www.google.com/accounts () Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: redirect.py logging of problems that cannot be fixed

Initial Comment: redirect.py needs to log issues it is unable to fix and why on each wiki. There are several flavors of problems that appears on Special:Doubleredirects

1. Self redirects (redirects that point to themselves) 2. Redirect loops (redirects that go in circles) 3. Double redirects formed due to page protection. 4. Inter-wiki redirects (redirects that point to redirects in other wikis)

It would be a lot easier if I had a log of these pages and user can post it on the village pump or perhaps bot can do this monthly for a select number of wikis. The code already provides a warning on the console but when you are running it on 700 wikis like me that becomes a serious chore to follow.
