changeI am going to need you to go back over your edits manually as I have noticed some ones that are incorrect like this one. -DJSasso (talk) 19:03, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
- Actually it looks like it was actually an error on ArthurBots behalf and your bot just replicated it to simple from another wiki. -DJSasso (talk) 19:06, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
- Yep. AvicBot doesn't think on his own, he just repeats others (including others' mistakes.) :-) I found a couple more that needed adjusting, and ran around the Wikisphere correcting them elsewhere, as well. -Avicennasis @ 21:37, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
- Yup I figured that was the case...happens with interwiki bots frequently, just wasn't sure how the commons script was set up. If it was the same kind of thing. -DJSasso (talk) 22:10, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Adding {{commonscat}} where there's already {{commons cat}}
changeIf you take a look at this change by AvicBot, you'll see that it resulted in duplicate links to Commons. Is there a way you could check for that variant syntax and not add a duplicate? Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 10:14, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
- No problem - I've patched the bots' code to catch these, so it shouldn't happen anymore. :-) Thanks for the heads up! -Avicennasis @ 02:48, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
