Bug ID: 73085
Summary: states_redirect should not create redirects for every
matching title
Product: Pywikibot
Version: core (2.0)
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Other scripts
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

Mobile Platform: ---
e.g. Elections_in_Dakota,_Maine is not a title that should have a redirect
Elections_in_Dakota,_ME as that type of redirect isnt likely to be a direct
data entry, and it clutters the search results / suggestions lists.
The script currently does create any article which has a state suffix, as that
is what the compat us-states.py script did.
https://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Elections_in_Dakota,_ME&redirect=no
If the script used pagegenerators, it would probably be possible to filter out
undesirable titles to be created, or maybe that depends on bug 54537.
