Hi there! BattyBot recently edited List of LTE networks in Europe to fix some unrecognized {{para|language}} parameters, and you reverted the edit stating, "False positive". My bot then made the same edit the next time I ran it. I don't wish to get in an edit war with you. Could you please let me know more details about the false positive? Thanks!

:Hi there. Your bot not only fixed the language parametres (what is indeed acceptable), but also changed formatting ( ) introduced for a specific reason an changed (deleted) a source without any given reason. The latter changes being dominant to the edit, resulted in a complete revert of the edit. Please ensure that the bot is doing it's work as specified and intended.

::Thank you for your reply. The bot's edit summary was "Fixed CS1 maint: unrecognized language and general fixes". One of the documented AutoWikiBrowser general fixes is that it "Removes tags inside , , tags". One of the apparently undocumented fixes is that AWB's genfixes also removes {{tag|small}} tags from citation {{para|title}} parameters.
::I've started a discussion at Wikipedia talk:AutoWikiBrowser#Genfixes removes small tags from citation title to discuss that fix and welcome your participation there. Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 17:15, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
:From a cs1|2 perspective, |title=Austria Networks: Drei AT, A1 and T-Mobile (* non-official source) is wrong. The [https://pedroc.co.uk/international/austria-mobile-networks linked source] does not include any of the words in the editorial comment: (* non-official source)
. Including text that is not part of the source title, whether wrapped in html markup or not, in {{para|title}} or other cs1|2 parameters corrupts both the visual rendering and the COinS metadata. Don't do that. The correct fix is to place editorial commentary outside of the cs1|2 template before the closing {{tag|ref|c}} tag.

::@Trappist the monk: {{fixed}} - thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 18:10, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
::@Trappist the monk - Would adding {{tag|small}} to the editorial commentary outside the template before the closing {{tag|ref|c}} tag mess up the COinS metadata? If not, I'll readd it for Nightwalker-87. GoingBatty (talk) 18:12, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
:::Editorial commentary outside of the template is outside of the template. Module:Citation/CS1 only sees what is between the {{
and the }}
(except for the special cases of {{tld|use xxx dates}} and {{tld|cs1 config}}).

::::Thanks to the feedback from Trappist the monk, I've readded the {{tag|small}} tags for you outside the citation template. GoingBatty (talk) 20:11, 28 February 2025 (UTC)
