Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic
Programming language(s): Python
Source code available: User:BogBot/Source_code/Task_04
Function overview: for each Gene Wiki article, create a redirect based on the official Human Genome Organisation symbol followed by "(gene)"
Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)/Archive_86#UID_interface_to_Wikipedia
Edit period(s): one time run
Estimated number of pages affected: creating approximately 10,000 redirects
Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes (if the page name or redirect already exists, the bot will not touch it)
Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): Yes
Function details:
The motivation to create these redirects is there is no consistent way of naming Gene Wiki pages. Some are named after the gene symbol, while others are named after the full gene name while others are named after the protein that is encoded by the gene. Gene Wiki pages provide extenal links to several external gene databases. Some of these databases have offered to supply reciprocal links back to the corresponding Wikipedia articles (e.g., IUPHAR). At present there is no straight forward method to locate these pages. Creating a redirect for each Gene Wiki page based on the official Human Genome Organisation gene symbol following by "(gene)" will provide a systematic unambiguous redirect for each article so that it will be easy for outside organizations to located the appropriate Wikipedia articles and provide reciprical links.
{{ R from gene symbol}} will be added to each redirect page so that each of these redirects will be included in Category:Redirects from gene symbols.
A sample redirect created by the bot may be found here: NR1H3 (gene)

No, there are a few problems, and it definitely looks like you noticed several of them:
2-4 are a little concerning to me, but it looks like you noticed those early and corrected them. Is that correct? Hersfold non-admin( t/ a/ c) 18:08, 2 January 2013 (UTC) reply
