:You'll love [[:Category:Pages containing links with bad anchors]] then. [[User_talk:Josh Parris|Josh Parris]] 14:24, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

::Thanks, that's exactly what we needed, and pleasingly short. [[User:Certes|Certes]] ([[User talk:Certes|talk]]) 15:32, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

:::I think that those pages with a broken #section link that can't be repaired ought to end up in [[:Category:Pages containing links with bad anchors]] - but this could add a great deal of complexity to your bot; you could tag their talk page with {{tl|[[User:WildBot/tag]]}}, and [[User:WildBot|WildBot]] could then come and tag the page, replacing that with its own tag listing the broken #sections (and dumping it into [[:Category:Pages containing links with bad anchors]] until the link is fixed, when it gets removed automatically). What do you think? [[User_talk:Josh Parris|Josh Parris]] 01:37, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

::::I'm not sure it's completely a good idea. First of all my bot is not designed to keep the [[User:WildBot/m02|box]] "''up to date and then remove it when the links are fixed''". Moreover my goal was to find without any false positive existing uppercased sections (and then fix the link). It's a bit different matter to find ''without any false positive'' not existing sections. At the moment if I skip an existing section (due [[Template:Anchor]], odd sintax, etc) it is not a problem, but if I add also [[:Category:Pages containing links with bad anchors]] it is a mistake. -- [[User:Basilicofresco|<span style="font-variant:small-caps; font-family:Verdana; font-size:1em; color:green">Basilicofresco</span>]] ([[User talk:Basilicofresco|msg]]) 07:38, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

:::::You seem to have misunderstood; if you tag the talk-page with {{tl|[[User:WildBot/tag]]}}, that's all you need to do. WildBot will remove it, then evaluate the page to see if there are any explanations like you suggested - anchor tags, weird markup, and so on - and if not, tag it as being broken. You need only add {{tl|[[User:WildBot/tag]]}} to the talk page, WildBot will do everything else. Does that seem okay? [[User_talk:Josh Parris|Josh Parris]] 07:49, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

::::::Oh, I understand now. Great, I will do it! -- [[User:Basilicofresco|<span style="font-variant:small-caps; font-family:Verdana; font-size:1em; color:green">Basilicofresco</span>]] ([[User talk:Basilicofresco|msg]]) 11:06, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

:I have to put <nowiki>{{Template:User:WildBot/tag}}</nowiki> because with <nowiki>{{User:WildBot/tag}}</nowiki> the template does not appear. Are you going to move the template to [[Template:WildBot/tag]]? -- [[User:Basilicofresco|<span style="font-variant:small-caps; font-family:Verdana; font-size:1em; color:green">Basilicofresco</span>]] ([[User talk:Basilicofresco|msg]]) 13:35, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

::I created the template in the wrong namespace! I've moved it to {{tl|[[User:WildBot/tag]]}} now. My apologies. [[User_talk:Josh Parris|Josh Parris]] 13:46, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

:::Edits look impressive. I'll probably approve this later if there are no complaints, and someone else doesn't get there first :). - [[User:Kingpin13|Kingpin]]^{[[Special:Contributions/Kingpin13|13]]} ([[User talk:Kingpin13|talk]]) 08:29, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

::::I'm as happy with this run as I was the last. Congratulations. [[User_talk:Josh Parris|Josh Parris]] 09:21, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

{{BotApproved}} After two satisfactory trials. [[User_talk:Josh Parris|Josh Parris]] 13:16, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
