Discussion[edit]
Have any changes been made to address the feedback/issues discussed in Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/AWMBot? ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 11:02, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, there has been a change that involves the replacement of the entire tag with a near 0 margin of error with editing. BJackJS talk
- I think part of the issue there was that it was adding page titles which just didn't exist. For example Special:Diff/989309968, even though Wikipedia:Peer review/Becky (model)/archive1 is a redlink. Is that resolved? If so, what's the behaviour of this bot if it runs on a page like that? Will it skip, remove the entire peer review tag, or is there a different parameter name/value it will add? ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 16:31, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
- I'm working on a function that verifies if a tag replacement is a redlink and it will then skip over that so it can be done manually by people who may have a better idea of what to do than an automated system. BJackJS talk
- Okay. Send me a ping once that's done and I'll be happy to send this for trial :). I don't think it's worth cycling through trials without that function, like in the previous BRFA, as in this edge case making those edits doesn't really solve the problem.

- User:ProcrastinatingReader The function has been added along with a major bugfix. BJackJS talk 17:18, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
