MaintenanceBot misbehaviour

MaintenanceBot is not without issues, not least since the sites it crossreferences are themselves moving targets. Over the years however, it has proved pretty stable. This is the place for recording bad edits:

• Hakluyt - the bot does not respect its redirection to Hakluyt & Company.

Jobs

It has a tendency to double up jobs.
