Discussion

By broken redirects, are you referring to redirects to non-existent pages? And by fixing, do you mean deleting them? Or are you actually referring to double redirects? —Mets501 (talk) 16:19, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

I am thinking of Double redirects. AxG ^(talk) _{(sign here)} 16:40, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Will the bot be getting the redirects from Special:DoubleRedirects? —Mets501 (talk) 19:04, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Approved for trial. Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. Post when done with 50-100 of these the next time Special:DoubleRedirects updates. —Mets501 (talk) 22:48, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Special:DoubleRedirects has been discontinued by the developers, so I have expired this request. —Mets501 (talk) 21:24, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
