[09:44:45] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Sannita> I should ditch my password for Pywikibot for a special: BotPassword one?

[09:45:22] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Sannita> There is that line, but there is my password, anyway
[09:59:57] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <edoderoo> you can try to manually login in the browser as SanniBot and that password. Maybe it shows you a clue, or maybe it does some magic in the background...
[10:06:24] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Adithya> In my knowledge, as mentioned by me in my previous message, you need to generate a bot password. For this, through your browser, login to your bot account first. Then, visit https://it.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speciale:BotPasswords. Then, enter a new name there and generate a password, which needs to be entered in the file named password.py. Only then you will be able to overcome this issue (I think so).

[10:07:01] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <edoderoo> is this special for it-wiki?
[10:07:27] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Adithya> No. I have used the same thing in other wikis too
[10:07:53] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <edoderoo> I often type the password once in a long while in the terminal where I run pywikibot scripts...
[10:09:56] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Adithya> What I have mentioned is actually stated https://m.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/BotPasswords
[10:51:10] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Sannita> I changed the password with a random one, still the same thing
[10:51:32] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <edoderoo> can you login as your bot in the browser?
[10:51:37] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Sannita> I did
[10:52:34] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <edoderoo> you can, as workaround, give PAWS a try, if you need to run the script ...

[11:59:34] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Maarten> So looks like normal password and bot passwords are mixed up here?
[15:18:38] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Thecladis> Is it just me for whom WatchList items got grouped per page? I don't think I have changed my preferences, and I cannot find how to undo it, I only know of a similar configuration for the whole wiki
[15:19:18] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <lucaswerkmeister> the preference should be there : https://tools-static.wmflabs.org/bridgebot/af612036/file_1784.jpg
[15:21:30] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Thecladis> thanks!
[15:21:49] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Thecladis> I might have misclicked there then
[16:03:08] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Thecladis> It seems I didn't, another person also reported that it switched for them :(
[16:04:16] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Jan_ainali> On all wikis or only meta? (re @Thecladis: It seems I didn't, another person also reported that it switched for them :()
[16:04:41] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Thecladis> ukwiki
[16:05:48] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Jan_ainali> Hmm, not checked for me there. (re @Thecladis: ukwiki)
[16:06:18] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Jan_ainali> Hmm, the box is not checked for me there. (re @Thecladis: ukwiki)
[16:07:12] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Thecladis> interesting. but do you have expanded watchlist there?
[16:08:44] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Jan_ainali> Is that the first option under Advanced in the watchlist tab of the preferences? (re @Thecladis: interesting. but do you have expanded watchlist there?)
[16:09:34] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Thecladis> yup : https://tools-static.wmflabs.org/bridgebot/0a507816/image_2020_12_06_18_09_32.png
[16:09:43] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Thecladis> this one
[16:10:40] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Jan_ainali> That one was not checked, no. Now I activated it, and the checkbox in the watchlist is not checked. So not affecting me retroactively at least (re @Thecladis: )
[16:11:03] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Thecladis> interesting
[16:12:11] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Thecladis> oh, it seems that the other person actually has that checkbox disabled
[16:12:33] <wm-bb>	 [telegram] <Thecladis> so for them the checkbox on the right only means that there is a huge indent
