Helpful Pixie Bot bug
Hi! I noticed an apparent bug with Helpful Pixie Bot:

Task
ISBNs (Build J9)

Example(s)

 * http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Loratadine&diff=next&oldid=481941483
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Insulin_glulisine&diff=490877261&oldid=488506409

Explanation
Adding Please check ISBN inside a cite book seems to break the latter – see refs 4 and 5 in the first of the example links. And there's a typo in the output, "deos" instead of "does". BTW, the ISBN the bot flagged is actually in the book. What should be done in such cases? --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 06:54, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for logging a bug.
 * Looking into the best solution.
 * The typo is corrected a few builds back.
 * Amazon gives 3-85200-183-8 although being 2007 and later the 13 digit number 978-3-85200-183-8 should be used.

 * OK I had a think and maybe ISBN 3-85200-181-1 / ISBN 978-3-85200-181-4 volume 1 (A-C) and ISBN 3-85200-183-8 / ISBN 978-3-85200-183-8 is the  complete work or vice versa.  I'm guessing that ISBN 978-3-85200-181-4 got converted to the invalid  ISBN 3-85200-181-4 somewhere along the line. So I'm going to put  ISBN 978-3-85200-181-4. Do, of course, change it if I'm wrong.

 * I suppose ISBN 978-3-85200-181-4 is correct; the 183 number is the Stoffliste = "List of substances", an index to accompany the Austria-Codex. --ἀνυπόδητος (talk) 08:30, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. I thought that was a subtitle for the whole work. Good, all cleared up then. Rich Farmbrough, 08:35, 8 May 2012 (UTC).


 * I am also fixing the remaining mis-spellings. I have to do this slowly, though. Rich Farmbrough, 09:07, 8 May 2012 (UTC).
