Hi @Jony , sorry for the long delay in answering.

I tried connecting WPCleaner to bnwiki with WPCleaner in English, and here are a few things I noticed.

Project check Wikipedia :

  • In WikiCleanerConfiguration page, I see check_wiki_translation_page=Wikipedia:WikiProjekt Check Wikipedia/Translation END
  • Page Wikipedia:WikiProjekt Check Wikipedia/Translation doesn't exist. WPCleaner doesn't find any configuration for CheckWiki, so no errors are activated.
  • The correct page seems to be Wikipedia:WikiProject Check Wikipedia/Translation
  • After fixing the configuration, I see errors in Project check Wikipedia and I can load them

Interface language :

  • I see many texts as rectangular boxes, it's generally that the font used doesn't support the characters (see this question for example)
  • I'm not familiar with Bengali language, do you know which font can correctly display the characters ?
  • If you know some, can you tell me which ones and also try them with WPCleaner (in Options / Formatting / Select editor font name, apply and then restart) : is there any improvement ? It should be only on the editing area, not the rest of WPCleaner, but if it works, maybe I can do something

Automatic fixing button :

  • After fixing the configuration for Check Wikipedia, I managed to load a list of pages in the Check Wiki window
  • I selected a dozen of them and clicked on the Automatic fixing button
  • The Automatic fixing button opened a new window
  • This window seems to work

Bot tools :

  • It's related a lot to Check Wikipedia
  • I tried after fixing the configuration, it seems to work

Hi @Jony ,

For me the only thing that didn't work last time I checked is the font. If I find the time to work on this problem, it will probably be on WPCleaner Next Generation, so not really soon. Please open a new issue for each of the problems that are still present for you.
