Remove more than 1000 crawl errors from GWT in one day?

[Host1]

In google webmasters tools you have the feature "Crawl Errors". This one displays the top 1000 crawl errors google have on your site.

I have around 16k crawl errors at the moment, which all are fixed. But i can only mark 1000 of them as fixed each day/each time google crawls the site.  (This as it only displays top 1000 errors. When i have marked those as fixed it won't show other errors for a while.)

Does anyone know if it's possible to mark ALL errors as fixed in one operation?

Hi Host1

It is not possible! You can only mark 1000 errors as fixed a day.

May i ask you how you fixed 16.000 errors at once?

No problem at all, had a wiki up and running without the "short URL's". So Google had ~19k errors on this one because of too long/complicated URL's. Removed it, problem solved and all errors resolved.

So google indexed more than 16000 pages on your site and now you do what?

Did you just remove them (404) or redirect them (301)?

Google indexed around 20k useless URL's due to mediawiki's insane amounts of URL's that is generated by not using "Short URL's".

It was resolved when we moved the wiki to another location, added the short URL's.

We have just redirected everything. (301).
