On the Zelda Wiki, I noticed moving a number of pages that after a while, I get an error message that says

Internal Server Error

Sorry, the server has encountered an internal error. Please wait a moment and hit "refresh" to submit the request again.

I do what it says but nothing happens. So I wait a few minutes and see if I can move it. I can, so I move some pages, but then after I move like 2 I get the same message. Is the server overloading or what? And another thing is there's no b'crat on the Zelda Wiki, according to Special:Listadmins.--Richard (Talk - Contribs) 00:58, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

The "Internal Server Error" barrier is a feature implemented to slow down move vandalism. Users with "sysop" or "bot" flags should not be affected by it. G.He_(Talk!) 01:07, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Cool, but it really affects normal users who are moving many pages. I guess I'll jus have to suck it up.--Richard (Talk - Contribs) 14:47, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Wow. This is really annoying. Can't this be fixed so that the time spent waiting before I can move pages again be like 1 minute rather than 5? The constant stopping and waiting is incredibly irritating.--Richard1990 ^{(talk - edits)} 19:51, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

If you have the need to move that many pages, you should request a sysop (or bot flag on altnerate account) on the wiki in question, probably ^_^. --Splarka (talk) 00:16, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
