Description I was disambiguating "Chinese", with possible variants "China" and "Chinese language". The article contained the following paragraph:
'''Wei Yuan''' ([[Chinese]]:魏源, 1794 - 1857) was a [[Chinese]] scholar of the [[Qing Dynasty]] and he wrote many books on politics in his life. His [[courtesy name]] were '''Mo Shen'''([[Chinese]]: 默深) and Hanshi ([[Chinese]]: 漢士), . He was born in [[Shao Yang]] (present-day [[Hu Nan Province]]).

I chose "China" for the second link and "Chinese language" for all the others. The result was this:

'''Wei Yuan''' ([[Chinese language|China|Chinese]]:魏源, 1794 - 1857) was a [[Chinese]] scholar of the [[Qing Dynasty]] and he wrote many books on politics in his life. His [[courtesy name]] were '''Mo Shen'''([[Chinese language|Chinese language|Chinese]]: 默深) and Hanshi ([[Chinese]]: 漢士), . He was born in [[Shao Yang]] (present-day [[Hu Nan Province]]).

You can see that two of the links were handled incorrectly, and the other two weren't changed at all. Other links to "Chinese" in the article were handled correctly. You can see the diff of a recreation here. Auntof6 (talk) 09:39, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

I think you mean "the space after the colon" -- John of Reading (talk) 06:55, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
Why are you saying there is a problem: only whitespace is changed and you have this skip option enabled? Rjwilmsi 07:05, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
I notice that Tjaenhebyu is listed under "T" in Category:Egyptian architects even though the DEFAULTSORT has a space after the colon. So unless I'm missing something, an edit to remove the space is just a cosmetic change, and the AWB skip options are correct to skip it. -- John of Reading (talk) 07:14, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
OK. The whitespace check is just that, it just checks whitespace, does not even try to identify whether the whitespace change would be significant or not. Rjwilmsi 07:17, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
(edit conflict)Looking at your examples, I note that they get sorted correctly with the space, so there's no need for AWB to change this. More importantly perhaps; neither Wahibre-teni nor Tjaenhebyu even need a defaultsort, so if you are going to change them, simply removing the defaultsort would be better (so that, if the page ever gets moved, the old defaultsort isn't wrong). But even that change shouldn't be made without a more fundamental change to the article at the same time. Fram (talk) 07:20, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
I agree that defaultsort isn't needed in this case, but that is not the point and is off-topic. Due to a bug that was introduced, Mediawiki currently strips off the leading space. There is a bug report. Like all user generated bug reports, it probably won't be fixed until the zombie apocalypse. As I live in fantasy land, I like to work as if bugs were fixed.
@Rjwilmsi. Ok, if it is a general whitespace check, then no need to add complexity to the code. Bgwhite (talk) 07:57, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

I got an error when I first started AWB which I, unfortunately, failed to copy. Then I got errors whenever I attempted to do anything. For example, when I tried to open a settings file, I got a NullReferenceException in MainForm.SetProject, which was previously reported three years ago and two years ago. Those were archived without action due to rarity, so there's probably no point re-reporting, although I do have the info if you think it might be helpful.

Then I got the above error whenever I tried to close down AWB. It's very frustrating to be unable to close a program because there's an error closing the program. I had to use the Windows Task Manager to close it. Then I was able to restart AWB normally. I didn't find any references to this in the archives. This all happened to me once before. Feel free to archive this as a rarity, but I figured I should report it this time. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 20:33, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

The above was likely a result of Wikipedia server/internet poor response rather then AWB specifically, although AWB does not handle such errors in a user friendly way. Regards, Sun Creator(talk) 10:33, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
rev 9063 prevents this error from being thrown. (AWB still won't work if network connections fail). Rjwilmsi 19:27, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

This happens fairly often under Wine (normally after around 100 edits in a session). After that new diffs are appended to the existing ones, however right click->Refresh twice on the diff seems to make it work again. I'll investigate further. Rjwilmsi 18:35, 6 April 2013 (UTC)

The .Net version is just fine. The problem is the SVN versions currently available are all old as version 5.5 came out a couple weeks ago. Goto Sourceforge's download site to get the latest version. Bgwhite (talk) 02:05, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
Thanks, that worked. I thought I was staying at the front of the pack by constantly using the latest SVN snapshots. Now that I have wasted several hours, what should I do from now on -- not go to the snapshots? WP:AWB still says I can do so. I don't think I am the only AWB user that will go off the tracks over this. Chris the speller yack 02:27, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
Still update the same way. You do have a point... The SVN page should be blank until an SVN is newer than a main release. Will bring it upto the powers that be. Bgwhite (talk) 04:15, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

It's because of the Arabic name rules, see Wikipedia_talk:AutoWikiBrowser/Bugs/Archive_11#Arabic_names. Rjwilmsi 08:14, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
I personally think this needs to be revisited. There are many names in the Arabic name rules that should no longer be in there, all three examples given by Zetud for example. Minus people from Malaysia, 99% of living people with Arabic names do follow a surname, firstname pattern. The different 1% are dang hard to figure out they don't follow the pattern. This is similar to the Japanese surname problem. Living people (except sumo and kabuki) follow western order. Dead people before a certain date follow Chinese order. A very good journal article is from The Indexer, The International Journal of Indexing. Bgwhite (talk) 07:09, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
I would be fine to remove the Arabic names logic if there is an appropriate centralized discussion that comes to that conclusion. Rjwilmsi 11:02, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

I'm not sure what caused it but I was trying out the 'Max edits' function in the bots tab. But when I turned 'Max edits' off, the error still happened. It appears to happen whenever I try to save the changes to the article. I downgraded to SVN 7505 and the bug disappeared.

Reported in Wikipedia_talk:AutoWikiBrowser/Bugs/Archive_10 in the past and Reedy claimed to have fixed that in rev 3971. -- Magioladitis (talk) 11:48, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I know. But this happened in version 4.5, and I'm using the 5.0.3 and it is still there for that site (www.spescoladeteatro.org.br/enciclopedia/). I think the fix was only for the wikia sites. This site I'm attempting to connect is not related to Wikimedia (but it uses MediaWiki) and it is a single language project (it doesn't have interwikis ou subdomains like xx.spescoladeteatro.org.br/enciclopedia/, for instance). I think there's some bug in AWB with that, because I use it in a wiki in my notebook (http://localhost/wiki/) and there's no problem with that. This only happens when I try to use it on http://www.spescoladeteatro.org.br/enciclopedia/ . CasteloBrancomsg 12:02, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Do you have any information on what you did to encounter this error, what page it was on etc.? Thanks Rjwilmsi 17:31, 14 August 2012 (UTC)
I don't remember the exact circumstances, but I think the error occurred when I attempted to add a page to my watchlist. AWB would automatically restart and reload the page I was working on, so I attempted to save my work before the restart timer ran down and got this error message. If I try and duplicate this problem, I get the same result (error message and restart with loss of work), but I get a different error message: "Attempted to save a wrong page", header: "Exception in MainForm.Save".

Link to the MOS policy on this please? Rjwilmsi 18:28, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
It's MOS:HEAD, but I think it is dangerous for software to enforce this MOS rule automatically. A proper fix requires a human to decide whether the same link occurs close enough to the heading for the lost link not to be a problem, or to decide how to add an equivalent link to nearby text. My preference for this rule, as I've said before, is that the software should only remove a link from a heading if the same link appears near the beginning of the following section. Otherwise, perhaps, it should be re-implemented as an alert. I routinely double-click to undo the effect of this general fix. -- John of Reading (talk) 18:46, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
I personally haven't thought about this before, but Keith D's comment of my bot's edit convinced me. Removing the wikilink should be done by a human and not bot. I'd favor John's suggestion of it be re-implemented as an alert. Bgwhite (talk) 23:07, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

I think AWB only adds persondata if there is a birth or death category e.g. after I added 'Category:1893 births' to William Langhorne Bond AWB worked normally.--Racklever (talk) 07:44, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

The pages reported can not be identified as pages about persons with our current logic. -- Magioladitis (talk) 08:02, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Working like this is hopeless: if we report pages then immediately go and edit them. If there is still a problem please re-report problem pages without editing them afterwards so I can test against the page as-is. Rjwilmsi 08:21, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
None of us edited the first 3 pages, it was an uninvolved editor. AWB would add persondata (2 had infoboxes), but not the name parameter, so AWB did identify them as persons. Bgwhite (talk) 08:31, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
Defaultsort is too subtle for software to fill in automatically - see WP:SUR for the list of hard cases. The Persondata name parameter is also subtle (Wikipedia:Persondata#Name and titles), and I believe that AWB will only fill it in by copying the defaultsort. -- John of Reading (talk) 08:45, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
@John, yes Persondata name is taken from DEFAULTSORT. @Bgwhite, fine, though either way I need live examples to work on. Also, is "restrict DEFAULTSORT" definitely turned off for you? Rjwilmsi 08:53, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
@Rjwilmsi, yes "restrict DEFAULTSORT" is off. I do add alot of DEFAULTSORTs. @John, I wrote WP:SUR, so yes, there are alot of different permutations for DEFAULTSORT. However, AWB does get it right 95% of the time, it can be corrected by the user and does fill in a value, which wouldn't normally happen. There is an automatic check for diacritics and a manual one... when adding listas as this is hardly ever done by anyone. Bgwhite (talk) 17:26, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
OK, so if you have further problems please try to give me a live example. Rjwilmsi 18:00, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

These examples do not contain a bug. For certain Arabic names, AWB will not add DEFAULTSORT. Ahmed and any variant of Mohamed will trigger the exception. See Wikipedia talk:AutoWikiBrowser/Bugs#%%key%% sometimes doesn't provide expected result. Bgwhite (talk) 22:51, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

A live example, for now... Don Williams (animator). Bgwhite (talk) 06:43, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

That page has no categories, hence no DEFAULTSORT is added. Rjwilmsi 07:15, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
Why does it add Persondata? Bgwhite (talk) 07:26, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
rev 9058 If adding persondata template and no DEFAULTSORT, derive NAME field as DEFAULTSORT would be derived (using MakeHumanCatKey) Rjwilmsi 08:29, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

Found another one... Nenad Ban. It adds persondata and fills in the name parameter, but doesn't add DEFAULTSORT. It also doesn't add any categories. It should atleast add birth category as the birth date is given in the infobox. I'm using svn9075. Bgwhite (talk) 21:34, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Highlight errors will focus the edit box on the first error, so I made it mutually exclusive with "Auto focus end of the edit box". How do you think it should work? Rjwilmsi 21:25, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
If they are both checked, then the edit box should contain red highlighting and the focus should jump to the end. But, in the longer term, focus and highlighting ought to be independent. Other possible options for focus could be "at the beginning" or "at the first yellow 'find' match". -- John of Reading (talk) 06:31, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
For me, "Highlight errors" always focuses the edit box on the last error. Very annoying because I have to scroll to the top of the article before I click anything in the alerts box.
I agree with John, if "Auto focus end of the edit box" is checked, it should override anything else and goto the end. If not checked, it should focus wherever the default is set. Bgwhite (talk) 07:14, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
While the developers are looking at this code, there's a related performance issue. If an article has hundreds of mismatched brackets, there's a long delay while the edit box scrolls to each one in turn. -- John of Reading (talk) 07:45, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

Defaultsort

Status Not a bug in AWB, has been referred

Articles had two strange things in them: {{{2}}} as value for a parameter and a category with a colon in front... [[:Category:Populated places in Ekerö Municipality]] The strange parameter is nothing new and shows up as CheckWiki Error #34.

The strange part is AWB wouldn't add a Defaultsort value if any one of the two oddities were in the article. Lunda, Färingsö församling and Mälby, Ekerö kommun are two of the articles. Sorry, I've already added Defaultsort to them. Bgwhite (talk) 05:56, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

This is not a problem. We don't add DEFAULTSORT where there are any {{{2}}} as this can indicate an article with problems, adding a DEFAULTSORT may only make the problems worse. As for the categories, if the category has a colon then it's a wikilink not a category, so the articles wouldn't be in any categories so wouldn't need a DEFAULTSORT per our logic.

Mainspace cats added in non-mainspace pages

Status Fixed in the next release
Description Birth, death, and "living people" cats are added to pages (based on text, infobox, persondata?), even when these pages are not in the mainspace. These cats should never be used on e.g. user space or AfC pages (if added, they should be disabled, e.g. Category:Living people See e.g. User:Fram/Sandbox for an example.

Sandboxes are a special case, we need to be able to test full functionality against sandboxes for testing purposes. Have you got examples of non-sandbox, non-mainspace pages where category addition is a problem? Rjwilmsi 21:17, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
Here's a listing of Fram's cleanup efforts yesterday, showing the many kinds of pages where it is a problem. I !vote for Fram's suggestion that the categories should be added, but with the extra colon: [[:Category:Living people]]. This wouldn't hinder the testing of AWB in sandboxes. -- John of Reading (talk) 06:51, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
John's idea is a good solution. Solves Fram's problem while keeping the cats in place on sandbox articles. I've deleted way too many cats on stale sandbox articles. Bgwhite (talk) 07:23, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
Yep, this would work for me. Fram (talk) 08:03, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Don't change Japanese fullwidth characters to halfwidth

Status Fixed in the next release
Description In this edit, AWB changed the fullwidth brackets in the nihongo template "（）" to ordinary halfwidth brackets "()". Please don't do this, it makes the text look strange and unreadable. These are called "fullwidth characters" and this type of brackets is used in the Japanese Wikipedia and is preferred to the halfwidth brackets. It would be even better if AWB didn't change anything in language templates. Cause the original-language text doesn't have to correspond to any Wikipedia style guidelines. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Moscowconnection (talk • contribs)

AutoWikiBrowser was working fine. The system was getting slow (seem that windows 8 has a memory leak somewhere) so a reboot usually fixes the dozy OS. This time I restarted AutoWikiBrowser while the system was still under a heavy start up load. This bug appeared. So I updated AWB to the latest version but the bug did not go away, so I suspect the data causing the crash is in a cache somewhere. -- PBS (talk) 14:55, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

The AWB application has now started, without displaying the bug. So it could have been due a thread timeout on a heavily loaded system. Not sure. Will report back if it occurs again when the system is not showing high load levels. -- PBS (talk) 15:04, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

This is a network error, AWB needs to load interwiki and wiki language information on startup. rev 9138 makes the error message a bit clearer, but there's nothing we can do if your PC, or your ISP or the Wikipedia servers are having network problems. Thanks Rjwilmsi 17:55, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

If you edit the text, either directly in the edit box or by double-clicking in the diff window, then it is up to you to check that the edit summary still describes your edit. The edit summary can be edited on the "Edit summary" tab before you save the edit. -- John of Reading (talk) 06:38, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
Why has this changed? The previous version, which i updated from this morning, did not behave this way; if i didn't replace "it's home" with "its home" i didn't have to go and correct the edit summary. Cheers, LindsayHello 15:43, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
See the archived feature request here. I think the new behaviour is great; it means I can do some copyediting in the edit box without losing the software-generated edit summary. -- John of Reading (talk) 16:07, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, but it should still remove explicitly double-clicked changes that are undone. See this diff and its corresponding edit summary -- FYI I definitely wouldn't have manually edited out that change (as it automatically includes |date= etc.), other than by double clicking on the diff. Mark Hurd (talk) 06:30, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
...and the discussion returned back when we decided to change the edit summary behaviour and use the previous one. We can never be sure what manual changes the editor does before saving. -- Magioladitis (talk) 07:01, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
OK. Probably a warning on first use or a readme automatically displayed when using new versions would be good. Mark Hurd (talk) 07:37, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
And perhaps it should at least warn when you made further changes outside of the section still in the comment, like I did here, instead of just silently removing the section "comment", which I didn't in this case to test. (I do actually like the idea of allowing us to determine if a major edit was done in one section and very minor edits in others and so only mentioning one section, although I think it should be warned against.) Mark Hurd (talk) 09:39, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

This is a rather annoying behaviour. But I see several ways to prevent wrong edit summaries and necessary additional clicks:

  1. Remove summary parts if the according change has been reverted by double-clicking
  2. Displaying the actual edit summary not in a special tab, but in the "Edit box" tab (beyond the default edit summary or the edit area would be good)
  3. Coloring the "Edit Summary" tab if there was something added to the default edit summary automatically
  4. Providing an option not to change the default edit summary automatically at all --YMS (talk) 20:12, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
Option 1 may not be doable. We could put the edit summary on the edit summary tab by splitting that tab with a vertical line. 3 and 4 could certainly be done, opinions from others? Rjwilmsi 08:07, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
Option 1 looks very hard to code; I like option 2 - if the full edit summary was moved to the top of the "edit box" tab, I wouldn't have to switch tabs at all; if option 3 were implemented I would want a preference option to turn it off; option 4 might please some editors but I wouldn't use it. -- John of Reading (talk) 07:36, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

Magio to review what parts of meta data sorter should run for Category namespace. Rjwilmsi 08:44, 7 March 2013 (UTC)
  • Sort interwikis should also be done for categories.
  • Move portals, see also, etc. also should be done for categories.
  • We don't expect persondata in categories
  • articleText += strStub + categories+ interwikis;

So, basically everything. -- Magioladitis (talk) 09:30, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

After further investigation: Activate to just change order of things: DEFAULTSORT, categories, interwikis; in this order. Persondata thing should be mainspace only. Don't Move portals, see also, etc. -- Magioladitis (talk) 17:44, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

This bug repeatedly appears just after starting AWB (while splash screen is still showing loading bar) and I can't get AWB to run. Even downloaded a fresh version, but didn't help, same error occurs. So I'd guess it has nothing to do with configuration or the like. --$traight-$hoota (talk) 12:02, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

Generic templates created by Kingbotk plugin not loaded from the settings file, although successfully saved into it

Status Fixed in the next release
Description I created two generic templates with Kingbotk/Plugin. I saved everything in the settings file (I checked and the settings related to them are in settings.xml). But if I restart AWB, load the settings and them load the Kingbotk/Plugin, they don't show up in the list of templates/plugins anymore. I tried loading the Kingbotk/Plugin and then loading the settings. Same result. Basically the generic templates configs get saved but are never loaded. Looks like a bug to me. Not sure if in the Kingbotk/Plugin or AWB properCodrin.B (talk) 16:58, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

This might've been broken since July 2010 when I majorly overhauled the plugin to give the more generic base. Being that long ago, I've no idea as to remembering if I tested it back then. If it's saving, that's half the battle, I guess it's just skipping what to do with the user defined generics, and either not building them, or even just not displaying it. Reedy (talk) 00:27, 19 March 2012 (UTC)

Seems to work fine now. Please download version 2.3.3.0 of the plugin or later. -- Magioladitis (talk) 17:56, 24 May 2013 (UTC)

Yep, I'm getting this one as well. Arbitrarily0 (talk) 12:47, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

I am pretty sure that this related to the timer and the way we save the plugin's stats. I ll try to do some debugging later. -- Magioladitis (talk) 10:43, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

Method to correctly count Kingbotk edits:

  • Save text
  • Apply plugin changes
    • If old text <> new text add 1 to Tagged
  • Apply genfixes

-- Magioladitis (talk) 20:16, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

I believe this is the same error that I pointed out. If thats the case its due to the Plugin getting stuck on comments. Could you provide them an example article or two that generates the error. --Kumioko (talk) 13:32, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
Duplicate with Wikipedia_talk:AutoWikiBrowser/Bugs#ArgumentOutOfRangeException_in_AsyncApiEdit.CallEvent. Charles_Edward are you trying to assess articles? -- Magioladitis (talk) 15:02, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
I'm getting it too when trying to assess and cleanup metalworking articles. Wizard191 (talk) 13:39, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
The problem is in the way we do the ststistics in KingbotK. We are already aware of that. -- Magioladitis (talk) 19:58, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
Yes I am trying to assess. I can get through, say fifty or more without an error, and then it gets to a patch where its error after error. Then it clears back up and I can assess another fifty or so before it craps out again. I have just been going back and manually assessing all the errored ones right now. I think this is related to other errors posted here. Here's some examples:
  1. Samuel Henderson (Indianapolis mayor), I can load the page, then click skip or save to get to the talk and it hangs. It never loads the talk page. If I click skip or save a second time, the above error occurs. If I click stop, then restart, or just click start without stopping, I get the above error too. Then upon restarting I get the "pluggin was expecting talk page" error.
  2. Same with Jim Hill (Oregon politician)
Eventually you get through the "bad" articles and it will start working again. I don't see on the talk pages of those articles any comments, or things like that. And it is on such a variety of articles and they have no common template except the Indiana project template, which I am assessing for. —Charles Edward (Talk | Contribs) 14:09, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

Happens when I try to do assessments with {{WikiProject Ontario Roads}}. Half the pages come up with an error saying 'AWB expected a talk page', with only OK to click. That stops the processing. I click start again, and it often skips the item and goes to the next and asks the same thing. Eventually it will go, but then this error will come up and stop the processing again. - ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ τ ¢ 12:49, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

Do you also use the KingbotK plugin? -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:13, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
Yes. Not only when I press 'skip' but also when I press 'stop'. Once (i.e. just now when my bot was mass-tagging for BRFA Bot Trial) it stopped in the middle with this same warning, without me pressing any button. Then, I had to restart AWB when it again started working. --Ankit MaityTalkContribs 12:27, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
The "assess" feature is officially broken. -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:30, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
It doesn't even open the 'assess' window it's supposed to open. So it's kind of doesn't even exist. --Ankit MaityTalkContribs 12:41, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

In most cases I have seen this, the addition of empty DEFAULTSORT is vandalism by someone trying the edit tools.

I probably never noticed before, but I do now because of the new edit box, thus I thought it as a bug. Magioladitis, I am using the latest version and it is not above the edit box, it is IN the edit box. Removing 1/3 of the edit box when I have to enlarge font size is not fun. There has to be a way to turn it off.
On another note. How is John still using 5.5.0.1 SVN 9049? Shouldn't that have been turned off with 5.5.0.2 out? Bgwhite (talk) 07:45, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
We always allow some days for the previous version. -- Magioladitis (talk) 10:33, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

I think we are good enough in this one. If someone makes changes to other sections can also modify their own edit summary. -- Magioladitis (talk) 13:40, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Auto-tagger: Change order of words in edit summary on arwiki

Status Fixed in the next release
Description This is a minor bug but it would be lovely if it was fixed. AWB provides localized edit summaries for arwiki (Arabic Wikipedia). However, Arabic is written from right to left and the order of words in the edit summary is incorrect. To explain, see this edit. English is written from left to right, so, "added" is the first word, "uncategorised" (the blue link) is the second word and "tag" is the third word. On arwiki, see this edit. Arabic is written from right to left, so, "وسوم" is the first word, "مقالات غير مصنفة" (the blue link) is the second word and "أضاف" is the third word. This is wrong. The correct order should be: "أضاف" is the first word, "وسوم" is the second word and "مقالات غير مصنفة" (the blue link) is the third word. Meno25 (talk) 12:28, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Meno25 do you want the same thing to be done for arzwiki too? -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:38, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

@Magio: Yes, please. --Meno25 (talk) 12:49, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Meno25 try 9243 and tell me if this is what you want. -- Magioladitis (talk) 14:50, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

Magio: Test edit Sadly no. Two problems: 1-The word "وسوم" should be rendered in normal text (not linked as it is now). 2-The word "وسوم" should be after "أضاف" and before "مقالات غير مصنفة" (i.e. the edit summary should be rendered as "أضاف وسوم مقالات غير مصنفة"). --Meno25 (talk) 15:19, 10 June 2013 (UTC)

What does "وسوم" mean? -- Magioladitis (talk) 08:12, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

It means "tags" in Arabic. --Meno25 (talk) 11:49, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

I hope rev 9269 is what we meant. -- Magioladitis (talk) 08:23, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

Nope. (Test edit) The edit summary is now rendered as "مقالات غير مصنفة وسوم أضاف". It should be "أضاف وسوم مقالات غير مصنفة". --Meno25 (talk) 11:49, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
I think you can create a patch for me. Please change the lines I changed to reflect the correct order. I am trying but I think it's my keyboard. I put something in a place and appears in a different one. -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:07, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
Meno25 help! -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:09, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

Meno25 I did a test edit [20]. -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:17, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

Magio: Here is the patch but please double check the syntax:

Thanks. This is what I was trying to do but for some reason copy-paste seemed to change the order of things. -- Magioladitis (talk) 13:14, 16 June 2013 (UTC)

Localize edit summary when removing stub template on arwiki

Status Fixed in the next release
Description Another minor issue with the edit summary on arwiki. AWB provides localized edit summaries on Arabic Wikipedia (arwiki) and Egyptian Arabic Wikipedia (arzwiki). However, when removing stub template the word "stub" is still displayed in English. In this edit, the word "stub" should be "بذرة". So, the edit summary should be "أزال وسوم بذرة". The first part of the summary "بوت: تصحيح أخطاء فحص ويكيبيديا" is manually added by me. In this edit on arzwiki, the word "stub" should be "تقاوى". So, the edit summary should be "شال وسوم تقاوى". Thank you. Meno25 (talk) 05:56, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
