Hello,
I recently asked AWB for my bot, first, it been added (https://goo.gl/I1vC3o)
I tried to login and program said I don't have permission, I found out I don't have bot flag, I asked for flag and it been given.
I retried to login but I still get the same error that I'm not in specified list.

@MohammadtheEditor this is to fa-wiki is it? Are you able to log in as your normal user? Could you provide the exact error message / screenshot of AWB please (whole of AWB not just any pop up message)?

@MohammadtheEditor OK, on the fa-wiki check page, the entry for you bot user name has a special character (U+200F / e2 80 8f / RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK) between the asterisk and the bot name, in addition to a space. Only whitespace is allowed there, so AWB doesn't find your name on the list.
I'll change AWB to ignore these characters in the check page, though it will be quicker for you if the check page is corrected.

@Rjwilmsi I don't find such a character there. I completed erased the line, and typed it again (no copy and paste) and saved the page, but it was a null edit so no new revision was created.

Ah right! That happened before I edit the page today, hence the null edit.
It was my mistake and has been corrected. I don't think AWB should actually correct them, it is the project admins' responsibility to provide correct input. Feel free to close this as invalid.
