Just an FYI...[edit]

Re this recent reversion[1]: When you revert an edit that is done by a bot, it's a good idea to notify the bot operator - especially if the revert was due to an error by the bot (as was this one). It's not a huge deal, but just reverting meant that what the bot was fixing (or, in this case, trying to fix) was just put back in. That put the article back into the list the bot looks at, so then it got hit again by the bot with edit and thus the same error. If you notify the bot operator (or the bot itself, depending), then it can be addressed to fix the core problem. Like I said, not a huge deal, but it is helpful so that we don't have a bot just hitting the same article over and over putting in the same bad edit. Most bots will have a link in their edit summary to lead you to the bot operator or other proper notification process. If you have any questions, let me know. TIA.
