There was problem in he:wiki, that they merged aricles about years to decades, but in names of years. When it was corrected, they made another articles about some years.
And some small wikis create automated stubs of years with interwiki to all languages, so there are sometimes 20 or more incorrect links, most of them are dead, but if one of them is redirect...
My bot have registration on all wikis, so I can do something...

So does anyone have an idea about how to solve this mess by bot?
Just do
python interwiki.py 1190'erne -ignore:he:1190 -force
with a bot that is registered at all languages that have a page on the decade (or, if it is not, do the remaining ones by hand). It will remove the incorrect link, and get the thing working correctly again.
Oh, nice :)
As for your fear that "before one such loop has been fixed, one or more iw bots will start spreading the problem again." - this will not happen unless their operators are doing a really bad job.
Well, the problem did not create itself, but if bots in general are well behaved, it should be fixable.
I'll fix the wikis I ave an account on, but quite a large number remains:

It looks like it's all decades from 210 to 1240 (inclusive) that has problems.
