Any updates on this? If there is any work pending here we can move this to Google-Code-in-2019?

@Mineo: is this task still valid?

The namespace filtering is not determined for cross-namespaces i.e. the namespace of the source page is different from the namespaces in the target chain. Should -namespace option filter the source page or target page or the page(s) to be changed?

global options are necessary for test scripts (more or less only). The normal scripts are able to handle global parameters anyway. I think this behaviour is for developers but not for running scripts. Therefore I wouldn’t expand the current help message.

On which site are you running that script? And what do you mean with "running any script"? The warning is valid as long as the script finds this old identifier.

@Seppl2013: Probably you should use generate_family_files.py to create you private family file.

I have not investigated in a systematic way but found some weird issues: I cannot use -user option for my account anymore but I can use the bot on sites even the name is not listed inside user-config.py. Two points to be digged deeper. And this listed problem too. I am on holidays currently and cannot help a lot. Btw I am not using botpasswords for my bot an I am using 2FA for my account. I guess we have to make a look into the password/cookie files behaviour.

Isn't this done already?

+1 What about the other family files?

Seems to be solved already

Declined upstream

Old compat stuff

Very strange: You are logged in successfully but you aren't obviously during running the script.

@revi: Can you please tagg the result of the failing login please

Unfortunately the -user option doesn't work anymore:

@revi: You aren't log in and working anonymously. Does it work if you are login first?

Okay, so maybe remove all these deprecated, obsolete and disabled options? (there is cca 10 similar)

Does it has to do something with T122705?

@Huji: I think it would be important see the userinfo content at this state. Using pprint is a good tool for showing ducts:

The result of deletedrevs ListGenerator and deletedrevisions PropertyGenerator is different.

@revi: Can you please provide an excerpt of the code you are using (or if it is the vanilla delete.py, how you are calling it)?
