If the page is deleted and the bot doesnt have a sysop account, delete.py attempts to recreate it by marking it for deletion. Without sysop account: $ python pwb.py delete -page:'Test page' Enter a reason for the deletion: It already is deleted Processing page Test page Can't delete [[en:Test page]]; do you want to mark it for deletion instead?

A slightly different problem, which will likely be fixed at the same time..delete tries to delete a deleted page. With sysop account: $ python pwb.py delete -page:'Test page' Enter a reason for the deletion: It already is deleted Processing page Test page Do you want to delete [[en:Test page]]?
