TASK DESCRIPTION **Background information** - In T109225 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T109225> (August 2015), I requested the addition of the local welcome template on Arabic Wikinews (arwikinews) to welcome.py - The chang was committed to the compat branch in gerrit:231894 <https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/pywikibot/compat/+/231894/> and to the core branch (without the "u" for Unicode) in gerrit: 231892 <https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/pywikibot/core/+/231892/> - (No bug up until this point) - In T210480 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T210480> (November 2018), I requested to add the local version of the welcome template to several projects (but not arwikinews). - The requested change was committed in gerrit: 475966 <https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/pywikibot/core/+/475966/> - Around that time, I stopped using the compat branch and started running my bot using the core branch. **Steps to Reproduce: ** Run the following command on arwikinews python pwb.py welcome.py -edit:0 -nlog -sul -limit:5000 -lang:ar -family:wikinews **Actual Results:** - The bot adds the welcome template as expected but can't add the signature correctly. - Eample of wrong edits: Edit 1 <https://ar.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=%D9%86%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%B4_%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%AE%D8%AF%D9%85:Al3nzie3&oldid=146304>, Edit 2 <https://ar.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=%D9%86%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%B4_%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%AE%D8%AF%D9%85:Yamen_hallas&oldid=146305>, Edit 3 <https://ar.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=%D9%86%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%B4_%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%AE%D8%AF%D9%85:Zoro_arifi&oldid=146306> (These are the earliest wrong edits, all dated on 27 November 2018) **Expected Results:** - The bot should be able to add the signature correctly. - Examples of correct edits Edit 1 <https://ar.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=%D9%86%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%B4_%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%AE%D8%AF%D9%85:Fringio&oldid=146296>, Edit 2 <https://ar.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=%D9%86%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%B4_%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%AE%D8%AF%D9%85:Samy_f_makled&oldid=146287>, Edit 3 <https://ar.wikinews.org/w/index.php?title=%D9%86%D9%82%D8%A7%D8%B4_%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%AE%D8%AF%D9%85:Samy_f_makled&oldid=146287> (These are the last correct edits from before 27 November 2018) **Notes** - This bug affects only arwikinews but not other projects (although I use the same exact configuration for the 6 Arabic sister projects, namely arwiktionary, arwikibooks, etc) - This bug started only from November 2018. Bot edits before that date on arwikinews are OK. - 27 November 2018 is the date of gerrit: 475966 <https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/pywikibot/core/+/475966/> (So, may be it is related?)
