Clicking on either the one in the list it stalled on earlier or the current one and then "start" had no effect. Switching between them, highlighting them in turn in the list and then hitting "start" had no effect. Selecting the next item down in the list and then starting worked fine again. Puzzling and curious, but not a serious problem. It seems as if once it stalls while loading a page, it completely refuses to load that page during your current session no matter what you do.

message: The problem is, I guess, that large templates like this one have links in the high 6 figures. It's hugely inefficient to be getting redirects this way. Might we consider using this toolserver page which is currently linked from  Special:Whatlinkshere?

Previous related bugs:
* \r bug in regex mode
* Newline bug #3
The problem basic arises that parts of AWB handle the newlines with "\r\n" while other parts where for simplicity to "\n", problems arise when both styles are used.  The server software will remove \r only when directly followed by a \n.  The behavior in the regex tester has not been updated to the new method.  —Dispenser (talk) 18:10, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  they responded to  - it's fixed in the next release, the problem is when you use \r\n in "replaced with" field - it was not supported, the mistake was common when you matched (\n) and tried to paste it as $1 - it was treated as a string not special character --84.234.42.68 (talk) 14:37, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
