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: General Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Melancholie (melancholie) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: login.py issues

Initial Comment: When running "login.py -all" the following error is shown sporadically:

Logging in to wikipedia:?? Login failed. Wrong password or CAPTCHA answer?

Bot does -not- stop then, but does not login either. Also with API_login, by the way (seems to happen more often with API).

2. With API_login enabled, it isn't shown that you have new messages on a certain wiki.

3. If bot is blocked on a certain wiki, no warning message seems to be shown anymore.

The bug is still there. the pywikipedia scripts allows edits under IP name. So please fix it or a lot of bots will be blocked because of bad written python scripts.

Important: With API_login enabled, a bot does not stay properly logged in! Thus, my bot sometimes also edits as IP when using API_login (with block of IP that's not funny ;-)

@1.: See "??" replaced by a certain lang code, of course ;-) @3.: Applies for both login methods.
