Edit period(s): one time run

Estimated number of pages affected: Few hundred?

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes

Function details:

For each digraph here, if it doesn't exist already, create a redirect to the proper section link; if it exists and is a redirect to that page, add the sectional link; if it points to another page or isn't a redirect, skip it.
For each trigraph, use the list from here, and edit all the redirects so they point to List of Latin-script trigraphs with the proper sectional link.

Discussion[edit]

Simple task and the code looks tight. Approved for trial (50 edits). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. (Split between digraph and trigraph if possible.) Thanks, — madman 03:45, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Trial complete. I accidentally ran it for 52 edits (because I can't count), 26 on both digraph and trigraph. There was one error, but that was because I made an error in creating the list. I also noticed that one redirect had a category which the bot overwrote ([3]), but seeing as the redirect shouldn't be in that category in the first place, I don't see a problem with it being overwritten.

There are 13 other articles that may be affected in that category; you may want to ask the bot requester (or someone in their project, if the requester is now inactive) if they really do want to essentially clear out and delete the category. — madman 11:19, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Actually only Kh (digraph) will be overwritten, the other ones are articles (not redirects) so the bot won't touch those. I've dropped the requester a note regardless. Lego K^ontribs T^alkM 20:38, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Kwami said it was ok to remove the category from the redirects. Lego K^ontribs T^alkM 22:44, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A user has requested the attention of a member of the Bot Approvals Group. Once assistance has been rendered, please deactivate this tag by replacing it with {{t|BAG assistance needed}}. Can I go ahead with this now? Thanks, Lego K^ontribs T^alkM 20:09, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Approved. Sure; everything looks good. — Earwig ^talk 22:26, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
