Redlinks

Discussion: Not quite a bug inasmuch as a missing feature. Many times, books contain redlinks. This should be reported. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 05:57, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

Discussion: Redirects should be followed, and the target's talk page should be examined for the assessment. AKA, The Central African Republic redirects to Central African Republic, a B-Class article, rather than an unassessed one. Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 19:45, 4 October 2011 (UTC)

Book Misgrading

Where: Book: The Legend of Zelda series

Discussion: The book scored 6.3, giving it a B, but the report says it's a C Class book.


 * This bug was in this revision. The page indicated 6.3, but the edit summary indicated 6.0 (which correctly assessed as C).  I am thinking that this is the same bug as the "Discrepancy" one posted above -- the rating seems to take after the average score in the summary, not the page.  This, I think, is just one of the effects of the bug.   Salvidrim!   10:31, 19 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Merge previous report, resolved. Noom  talk stalk 16:54, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I'll check it out on the next update. :)  Salvidrim!   18:05, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I checked further and it's a bug with the template, manually adding up the scores reveals that the bot reported the correct score in it's edit summary but the template didn't calculate it properly. Noom  talk stalk 13:07, 11 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Further to the above, see this manual edit was to correct several misreads of class from the article talkpages' headers. LeadSongDog come howl!  06:05, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
 * The bot is now undoing my corrections, putting its errors back in: . It seems it is confused by talkpages with multiple project headers, and shows the class as "unassessed" in error.LeadSongDog come howl!  05:30, 4 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Created a separate bug report below. Noom  talk stalk 22:46, 17 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Unnh, not fixed. This edit still has a summary of 4.8 and a grade of 4.9.  Salvidrim!   14:49, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
 * I mentioned this above, I believe it is still a problem with the template and my knowledge of templates isn't sufficient enough to make the correcting edit. I asked the original template creator to have a look, but received no response. Where else should I ask for template help? Noom  talk stalk 22:46, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I'd recommend the Help Desk.  Salvidrim!   22:56, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
 * This should do it. There was a mistake in scoring in the template. — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 09:11, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

White-space changes, incorrect conversion of internal __nosect__ place holder, failing to update book report time, losing track of articles "real names" when attempting to concatenate them from the article list, not adding the correct book report end parameters for clean-up reports. Noom talk stalk 17:19, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
 * white-space edits. Edits now follow the correct behaviour of only updating a books report if a change of 0.25 in score is calculated.
 * internal __nosect__ being used for section names. Noom  talk stalk 17:26, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

The bot skipped a few books in the last run. What happened? Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 17:38, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I've told it to start skipping books if the report hasn't had significant changes to it. Maybe I should turn that feature off? What's your opinion? Noom  talk stalk 16:34, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Found a regression after updating my wrapper for the AfC task. Fixing. Noom  talk stalk 17:02, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Well these books don't even have reports. As for skipping reports, I don't really see what's the benefit of doing that. Books should at the very least be updated whenever ratings change, cleanup issues change, or when the book's article content changes.

Duplicated book report

Discussion: At Book talk:Wikipedia: The Missing Manual, NoomBot keeps adding a second book report, rather than replacing the old one. It has done so on the last two runs. The first time it happened, I thought it was a one-off glitch and removed the duplicate, but it's now happened again. It might be relevant to mention that there's a redirect to this page at ; I don't know if that causes the bot any issues. I should also mention that a large amount of discussion from another talk page was just three days before this started happening. – PartTimeGnome (talk&#160;&#124; contribs) 22:15, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Noom  (t)  09:13, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
 * It's not immediately clear what the issue is with the formatting on this page, I need more time to take a closer look, if the duplicated reports is bothersome, feel free to add it to nobots, I'll try to find the source of the issue asap. Noom   (t)  17:08, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I saw . Unfortunately, it did not resolve the problem, since.
 * Does allowing the bot to keep running on the page assist you in investigating this? It's not too much pain for me to keep reverting it after each run. If letting it run doesn't help you, feel free to add nobots to the page. – PartTimeGnome (talk&#160;&#124; contribs) 23:00, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

{ merge partner } erroneously labeled as a problem

Discussion:

The merge tags, for example merge to have embedded in them a check for specification of the proposed merge partner, and the merge partner template is only supposed to be activated when merge to has no parameter specified. In the example I linked, Atlantic World does have a merge partner, it is Atlantic history, so merge partner should not appear in the Cleanup column of the report. This is cluttering up "what links here", see. Suggest that the bot just ignore that template. Can I put a nobots tag on the template?
