Category: interwiki Group: None Status: Pending Resolution: Works For Me Priority: 7 Private: No Submitted By: Grimlock (grimlockfr) Assigned to: xqt (xqt) Summary: Problem with hi characters

Initial Comment: Pywikipedia [http] trunk/pywikipedia (r8602, 2010/10/04, 19:33:48) Python 2.7 (r27:82525, Jul 4 2010, 09:01:59) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] config-settings: use_api = True use_api_login = Tru

My interwiki bot on Wikipedia (using interwiki.py) can not identify correctly the interwiki link to hi, and, as a consequence, the link, which is identified as a bad one, is removed when I use -cleanup option (see here http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mark_Zuckerberg&action=history... for an example). It appears that one or more characters are misunderstood.

Message: I should note this morning I updated to the most recent build and have not seen it since. And its been about 6 hours now since then. So it may have fixed itself in the most recent build. Or I may have just been lucky and not had any hi links gets mistaken in that time.

Message: Most problems came from SassoBot, MastiBot, User:ChuispastonBot, VolkowBot, see http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bots/Notizen#Interwiki-Probleme_mit_h...

With actual py version deleting of hi-links is stopped. Well I'll investigate your hint. Do you have some examples for me.

Message: In doing some cleanup of my bots edits on one wiki. I have seen atleast 4 other bots doing this recently. So there is clearly an issue somewhere. I was running the new -cleanup option so maybe that is what causes it.

Message: It is doing it for me as well. Has been for the last few days, but seeing as other bot seemed to fix it immediately I didn`t think it was a big issue or was maybe my machine. So I was trying to figure it out on my own. But if its happening to others its clearly not just my machine.
