Hi all, I'd like to plead for advice on testing Recitation-bot to demonstrate we have resolved a bug that resulted in a ban for splitting image pages into two separate incomplete pages last month. The log of attempts to test the fix is in this bug https://github.com/wpoa/recitation-bot/issues/69. Here are the key points / open questions:
- Each wiki I have successfully tried to test on, including the production wikis, test.wikipedia.org, and testwiki.wiki, seems to redirect the bot to a page with information about permissions / blocks, something I had never seen prior to the block. - What is the appropriate place to test? Seems to be www.thetestwiki.org - Could we appeal the block on the strength of the apparent correctness of the edit to fix the bug, at least temporarily so as to be able to demonstrate the fix on a wiki we were running successfully on in the recent past? Who would be best to approach with such a request?
Thanks any and all for any advice you can offer. Anthony
