Script problems

Looks like this script is deleting in-use references and leaving behind errors in several articles. For example: this edit to Biloxi and this edit to Cap Girardeau. Should the bot running this script be turned off until the script can be made more reliable? (Or is it a human running the script?) Either way, it seems like some automation is causing damage by removing in-use references and leaving errors and inconsistently updated content behind in articles. -- Mikeblas (talk) 15:11, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

User:DemocraticLuntz - Same problem here at Hideout, Utah, Vancouver, Washington and Vienna, Virginia. The script leaves behind citation errors. I am constantly cleaning up after this script. And the source the script inserts is just a generic landing page that doesn't verify any of the data being added by the script. Can you please explain on how you intend to address the concerns raised here, because if you don't want to take responsibility for the clean-up of citation errors and generic landing page which doesn't verify the content the script adds, you should probably stop using it. Thanks. Isaidnoway (talk) 10:06, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

The generic landing page is, in my view, correct, as it's better to link to an HTML page (where you can see where it's coming from) from which you can then click to the CSV file that has the data, than the CSV file directly. Regarding the citation errors, it looks like it's a function of the page already having a quasi-error on it (I can try to fix the script to recover from it, of course, but the script did not per se introduce the error). i.e. Vienna Virginia has bad code internal to the reference, there are }} braces but no beginning {{ cite.

At any rate, I'm not running it again possibly ever without a major overhaul because the new actual Census is happening, and that's gonna be a big job to do stuff with and I may not be able to.
