Manual talk:Pywikibot/interwiki.py

Is autonomous_problems.dat intended to be usable as an argument for the -file: option? My version of the bot (04-22-2005 CVS) seems not to like it. It'd be of great help if it could be used; I wrote a simple script to perform the task, but at the cost of losing quite a lot of stored information. Taragui 14:52, 6 May 2005 (UTC)

probably bug
I run this bot within th (Thai) and en (English) Wikipedia(s). In English Wikipedia, instead of editing articles as my bot username, my IP-Address is shown in edit history (similar to un-login user). In Thai Wikipedia it worked well to me.

crashing bug
Python 2.5, Windows XP MCE, all SPs, just updated, get this error:

NOTE: Of Vengeance and Violence does not exist Getting 60 pages from wikipedia:sv... Sleeping for 5.7 seconds, 10 Dec 2006 15:59:47 (UTC) Dump en (wikipedia) saved Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\pyWikipedia\pywikipedia\interwiki.py", line 1552, in    bot.run File "C:\pyWikipedia\pywikipedia\interwiki.py", line 1264, in run self.queryStep File "C:\pyWikipedia\pywikipedia\interwiki.py", line 1238, in queryStep self.oneQuery File "C:\pyWikipedia\pywikipedia\interwiki.py", line 1234, in oneQuery subj.workDone(self) File "C:\pyWikipedia\pywikipedia\interwiki.py", line 513, in workDone if self.hasnondisambig(pl.site): File "C:\pyWikipedia\pywikipedia\interwiki.py", line 363, in hasnondisambig if not pl.isDisambig: File "C:\pyWikipedia\pywikipedia\wikipedia.py", line 699, in isDisambig for tn in self.templates: File "C:\pyWikipedia\pywikipedia\wikipedia.py", line 1219, in templates thistxt = self.get File "C:\pyWikipedia\pywikipedia\wikipedia.py", line 487, in get raise self._getexception wikipedia.NoPage

If I start from the same place right before a crash, it dies again. Could it be failing to get sv.wikipedia? ST47 (en:User:ST47) 16:03, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Incorrect (?) inclusion of subheadings
I had a short exchange to a Interwiki.py bot operator. Wikipedia bot user account w:User:SieBot undid some changes I made to the Albert article:. The Mandarin update is fine, but the German and Swedish changes are incorrect. I don't think the subheadings are appropriate for those linked articles -- the articles are each about the name; using the subheadings would be appropriate only if the English article were simply a list of the people with the name, I think. -- JHunterJ 20:27, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
