Comments on Blue links[edit]

  • Belkuchi redirects to Belkuchi Upazila (Upazila is an administrative subdivision). Seems to be correct, although the coordinates are slightly different. It being a relatively larger locality, the coordinates may be slightly different.--Dwaipayan (talk) 17:15, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Balia, Bangladesh in itself is a disambig page of places named Balia in Bangladesh (a list of multiple places named Balia exista there with oordinates)
  • Chandpur - there are several Chandpurs in Bangladesh and India. In this page itself, there are 2, one in Thakurgaon Zl and one in Sirajganj Zl. How do you propose to dab those? By naming the Zl, such as Chandpur, Sirajganj?

One query in this regard, multiple reviewers may check the pages to see if the blue links are correct. Suppose, person A chcks page 1 of bangladesh and finds one Chandpur blue and make it red by Chandpur, Bangladesh. Another reviewer get to find one more Chandpur at page 8, and renames it Chandpur, bangladesh (not aware of teh fact that there are more Chandpurs in Bangladesh). Now, what the bot will do?--Dwaipayan (talk) 17:37, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If that happens, the first diambig link it comes across will be made into an article. When it finds subsequent ones, the article will already exist, so the bot will write it out to my log as a fail and move on to the next item. Since the list of fails should be quite small, these may be sorted out manually without too much trouble. Sound reasonable? Fritzpoll (talk) 17:40, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That's great. Sorry if I asked a foolish question :) It's great to see such a huge project!--Dwaipayan (talk) 17:44, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Nothing foolish about it at all. It is very easy, especially for programmers, to overlook this kind of potential bug, and I encourage you to speak up if you notice potential problems Fritzpoll (talk) 17:46, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

More questions[edit]

  • There are two Madhupurs in Thakurgaon Zl:
