C:\bot>version.py Pywikipedia \[http\] trunk/pywikipedia \(r8102, 2010/04/16, 10:28:09\) Python 2.6.2 \(r262:71605, Apr 14 2009, 22:40:02\) \[MSC v.1500 32 bit \(Intel\)\] config-settings: use\_api = True use\_api\_login = True
I am wondering: category\_redirect has no localisations for es-wiki.
- **assigned_to**: nobody --> xqt
I did it, is here: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2988851&group\_id=93107&atid=603140
I see the bug, (I don't why) there is a line in the code that forces to edit anyway. I'll fix it :)

The easiest way to prevent this bug is to deactivate cosmetic changes while running this script. My last patches does this by framework itself.
