Bots logging out when editing certain pages
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

I have no idea why, but on certain pages it seems that bots log out to add
interwikis. Just check the history of [[no:JSP]]:
http://no.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=JSP&curid=5435&action=history

One of the bots is [[no:Bruker:YurikBot]], one is mine ([[no:Bruker:JhsBot]]),
and a couple of other bots have edited it too. The page was protected against
spam earlier, maybe that has something to do with it? The same thing has
happened with [[no:Jens Stoltenberg]], which has also been protected (against
vandalism).

I can't see how this can be something related to MediaWiki unless it's a loss of
session data, which happens to human editors a lot of the time. Check the bot
framework handles a protected page in a sane fashion.
