When I try to use interwiki.py, it collects all the pages that it'll edit, but at the end, when (I assume so) it wants to save the pages, it fails to do so.
What I expected to happen
It saves the selected pages.
What happend
It gives me a couple of warnings which states that interwiki X is not linked to interwiki Y, that interwiki Z is not linked to interwiki Y, that interwiki Y is not linked to interwiki X, etc.
How to reproduce
- Get the Pywikibot version from http://tools.wmflabs.org/pywikibot/core_stable.zip
- Run the script for creating user-config.py and maybe to create a family file (only when reproducing doesn't work with the families that are included in the download).
- Login using login.py.
- Use interwiki.py (adding a page name is optional).
You'll see that, at the end, under ====== Post-processing [[interwiki]] ======, it gives a couple of warnings and won't try to edit and save the page.
Some code stuff
It looks like it gets stuck on this piece of code which starts at line 2071 and ends at line 2087 (not sometimes, but every time):
linkedPagesDict = {}
for linkedPage in linkedPages:
linkedPagesDict[linkedPage.site] = linkedPage
for expectedPage in expectedPages - linkedPages:
if expectedPage != page:
try:
linkedPage = linkedPagesDict[expectedPage.site]
pywikibot.output(
u"WARNING: %s: %s does not link to %s but to %s"
% (page.site.family.name,
page, expectedPage, linkedPage))
except KeyError:
if not expectedPage.site.is_data_repository():
pywikibot.output(
u"WARNING: %s: %s does not link to %s"
% (page.site.family.name,
page, expectedPage))When this happens, I get in Command Prompt this output (<username> stands for the account I'm currently using, don't want to put my name here):

Details
- The Wiki I try to edit is http://minecraft-nl.gamepedia.com and all the other languages which are part of that Wiki group. As you might've seen in the output, not all the Wikis have every page the English Wiki has (which is also the base Wiki).
- Even though it's a third-party Wiki, some users use Pywikibot as bot software. It looks like they don't have this issue (maybe an older version of Pywikibot?).
- Python version 2.7.11.
- The bot is logged in.
- Doesn't have bot rights yet. I want to test it first before even asking for those rights.
- I tried to use a (newer?) version from Github (link: https://github.com/wikimedia/pywikibot-core/), but that failed because it needs a so-called 'ListOption' and 'StandardOption' which are, according to the code, stored in pywikibot\bot.
- I tried after that to search for the folder 'bot' in the Github of Pywikibot. I haven't found it (yet).
- Pywikibot is downloaded from http://tools.wmflabs.org/pywikibot/core_stable.zip
- Operating system: Windows 10, version 10.0.10586.
