Is the bot broken?

Since yesterday, when I try to update a page with the bot, I get a "Last line: ERROR: Login failed" message. It also does not seem to have made any edits in the last few hours. Is it broken? Calistemon (talk) 03:29, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

Apparently, other useres are having the same issue and the bot has made no edits since before my previous post. See Github where the issue has been raised. Calistemon (talk) 22:41, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

Since two weeks ago, I've tried to remove apostrophes from the "website" value, and you repeatedly restored them while updating this list. Achmad Rachmani (talk) 13:42, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

There is a big yellow bar on top of the list that says:

 Edits made within the list area will be removed on the next update!

That's what's happening. The bot will replace everything in the list, including references, on update. --Magnus Manske (talk) 15:47, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

So the question then becomes: Where is the bot getting this template:

{{cite web|url=https://hyperallergic.com/578079/wendy-red-star-apsaalooke-mass-moca/|title=Wendy Red Star Is Teaching Children About the Crow Nation With Her Art|website=''[[:d:Q16845741|Hyperallergic]]''}}

"Wendy Red Star Is Teaching Children About the Crow Nation With Her Art". Hyperallergic. {{cite web}}: Italic or bold markup not allowed in: |website= (help)

It doesn't appear that the bot is constructing a {{cite web}} template because there are only a handful and only this one has |website=. Special:LinkSearch finds the hyperallergic.com url only in Wikipedia:GLAM/Smithsonian Institution/SAAM Artists; a cirrus search for Q16845741 across all namespaces has only one hit: ~/SAAM Artists.

I'd really like to find and fix that italic markup in |website= error so that ~/SAAM Artists doesn't linger forever in Category:CS1 errors: markup.

Where is the bot getting this template?

Category:CS1 errors: markup

Please fix this bot.

Category:CS1 errors: markup currently has three pages, all of which are maintained by this bot:

Wikipedia:Equity lists/Gender

Wikipedia:Equity lists/Medical condition

Wikipedia:Equity lists/Sexual orientation

The pages are listed in the category because some cs1|2 templates in the bot's contribution use italic markup where that markup does not belong. In the cases that I looked at, the bot appears to be fetching the citation elements from wikidata and applying italic markup to whatever it thinks is the work parameter. For example, this citation appears to get the value for |website= from wikidata Q117337737 → sex or gender (P21) → stated in (P248) → [[:d:Q1641941|Dazed]] But then, the bot improperly adds italic markup in |website=:

{{cite web|url=https://www.dazeddigital.com/art-photography/article/57470/1/chai-saeidi-lgbt-photograph-scandinavia-s-ballroom-scene-norway-stockholm|title=A photographer’s journey through the Scandinavian ballroom scene|website=''[[:d:Q1641941|Dazed]]''|access-date=2023-03-30}}

which causes Module:Citation/CS1 to emit an error message when it renders the citation:

"A photographer's journey through the Scandinavian ballroom scene". Dazed. Retrieved 2023-03-30. {{cite web}}: Italic or bold markup not allowed in: |website= (help)

The bot should not be adding italic markup to any of the |work= parameters (|journal=, |magazine=, |newspaper=, |periodical=, |website=, |work=) the responsibility for styling lies with the cs1|2 templates, not the bot.

This is not a new problem. At Wikipedia:GLAM/Smithsonian Institution/SAAM Artists, various editors have 'fixed' the markup in that page to get it out of Category:CS1 errors: markup. Please fix this bot so that these pages do not live in the category forever. See User talk:ListeriaBot § Wikipedia:GLAM/Smithsonian Institution/SAAM Artists.

Please fix this bot.
