Bug: plainlist removal
[edit]Apparently fails to detect and remove closing }} if it is not on a separate line eg. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Celebrity_Booze:_The_Ultimate_Cash_Grab&diff=prev&oldid=1291699108. Regards, Closingbrackettalk 16:30, 24 May 2025 (UTC)
- That would appear to the case. Thanks for catching this! ButlerBlog (talk) 17:20, 24 May 2025 (UTC)
- It happened even in this edits: Web Weirdos diff, Who Would Win diff. --GünniX (talk) 05:35, 25 May 2025 (UTC)
- Also noticed this at Vampire Diaries articles, here and here (fixed, just letting you know). Cheers, Jessicapierce (talk) 15:03, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
- Seeing more and more of this - and at Death in Bloom, here, it stripped the end brackets from multiple efn formatting. Jessicapierce (talk) 15:09, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
- @Jessicapierce: - thanks for noting this. The Vampire Diaries errors appear to be the result of the change implemented to fix the issue that was noted above - closing of the plainlist template at the end of line. In this case, it's a new confusion for the bot task as the closing brackets removed were the closing brackets for the entire infobox. So I'll need to adjust it to recognize the difference. Pretty much the same comments on the Death in Bloom error. Thanks for pointing these out. There are still several thousand pages in the maintenance category that have plainlist markup where they shouldn't, so it's a necessary fix. ButlerBlog (talk) 15:21, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
- No worries, a bot can't be perfect, and at least the cleanup is super easy. Thank you! :) Jessicapierce (talk) 15:25, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
