Poorly formatted entries

This bot has added thousands of entries containing =level-one section headings=, which is incorrect formatting. The only level-one heading on each page should be the page title provided by the MediaWiki software itself. User-provided page content should never contain level-one headings. This means all the section headings on such pages will have to be shifted down (or up?) one level (level-one to level-two, level-two to level-three, etc.), like this. Also, the bot apparently didn't recognize when it was adding content to a previously existing redirect, so all edits by this bot that were not page creations should be checked to see if a "#REDIRECT" or "#पुनर्प्रेषित" line should be removed. Since I don't read Hindi, I can't comment on the general usefulness of the entries otherwise, although I can say that very long entries like ह्वेल appear to be short encyclopedia articles instead of dictionary entries. - dcljr (वार्ता) ०८:१५, ६ अगस्त २०१७ (UTC)

namaste, Thanks for pointing out the flaws. I acknowledge: * "Also, the bot apparently didn't recognize when it was adding content to a previously existing redirect, so all edits by this bot that were not page creations should be checked to see if a "#REDIRECT" or "#पुनर्प्रेषित" line should be removed. " * "The only level-one heading on each page should be the page title provided by the MediaWiki software itself." And clarify that: * The proposed formatting was approved by the site moderators after examining a sample. * The entries are from a famous dictionary called shabdasAgara, and were already dumped in entirety on the wiki in a handful of places.

If you mean the conversation at विक्षनरी:चौपाल#बॉट-उपाधि की प्रार्थना : sanskritnlpbot, I see that सदस्य:Sfic (now सदस्य:ज्हाझक्हाक्रुब्हो) twice showed you an example of using the level-two heading =={{हिन्दी}}==, but I don't see any evidence that level-one headings were discussed (although, granted, I do not read Hindi — I'm using Google Translate). Would you be willing to program your bot to fix the entries if further discussion at विक्षनरी:चौपाल can agree on a format? - dcljr (वार्ता) ०३:१०, ७ अगस्त २०१७ (UTC)
