Operator: Merlissimo
Automatic: supervised
Programming Language(s): Java (Framework written by myself - long time usage in dewiki)
Function Overview: changes links in articles which are outdated and can be successfully replaced by a new one
Edit period(s): when links have to be changed ;-)
Already has a bot flag (Y/N): dewiki
Function Details: The bot replaces urls that have to be changed. This can be only a domain change or a more complex page structure change on a website. Links are dectected with the help of the api (and not with regex) and are only replaced if the webserver of the new url returns a 200-status-response for that new resource. Links in “normal article text” are not changed.
You can have a look at my edits on dewiki where my bot is changing .yu-Domains at the moment. You can also check the fault report of the yu-job on dewiki why some links weren't replaced.
On dewiki this job was also done by my first bot before.
I'm liking the fault report; I'm interested, though, in the 406 errors - I tried a couple and they seemed fine to me (how do they come about, anyway?). Anyhow, if you're going to be doing .yu->.rs, you might want to have a chat with NicDumZ - his application, which is currently open, would do some of the block, en masse stuff; yours might handle the individual transitions. Clearly though, broken links should be avoided, and anything that helps is fine by me. - Jarry1250 ( t, c) 09:48, 19 February 2009 (UTC) reply

If you want me to do a new request for every domain my bot will change i withdraw my request. It is to much overhead for me if an url is linked only 20 times (like most of them). Perhaps you can show me a site where i can post urls which will get broken in future, so that other bots can to this job.
