User:N-Bot
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Currently working on: nothing
[edit] Purpose
It transforms links-to-redirects-to-lists to links-to-sections-of-lists. In other words:
- Some lists, like List of minor Star Wars characters, have redirects for individual items in the lists, e.g. Captain Panaka.
- Lots of articles link to these redirects - 7 mainspace pages linked to Captain Panaka (before the bot was used on that list).
- This can be highly annoying, because those redirects go to the top of the page.
- Therefore, this bot turns
[[Captain Panaka]]
, wherever it exists, into[[List of minor Star Wars characters#Panaka, Captain|Captain Panaka]]
. And so on and so forth, for each list it runs on.
I've been finding fodder for it by looking under Category:Lists of fictional things.
I saw your bot repairing links redirecting to lists etc on some of the articles in my watchlist, it seems to be functioning perfectly. Se, here you go: Jacoplane 23:46, 8 August 2005 (UTC) |
