Table:The bot
Discussion
It's not so much a discussion as news, but I am currently working on turning the bot into a routine job, that will initially run every 3 hours. It currently only performs the task of cleaning up the category links in articles from the top to bottom or arranging them alphabetically. It will, of course, eventually, do many more tasks to articles.
See User:SvipBot for its algorithm.
Suggestions for future features are of course most welcome. Current ideas include changing {{elink}} and {{flink}} to {{e}} and {{f}} respectively and something about making sure episode inline episode links (which does not make use of a template) are correct, e.g. quotations around episode titles and film titles in italic, etc. --Sviptalk 21:52, 5 April 2010 (CEST)
- Maybe something to fix quotes? That will be a bit more complicated, but I am sure could be automatic. --Sviptalk 21:57, 5 April 2010 (CEST)
- Everything seems okay so far. Can't think of anything else to sick the bot on. - Quolnok 12:07, 6 April 2010 (CEST)
Updated the algorithm with a new feature, it now also attempts to fix quotes, see here. It will also conform existing quotes in this manner to our standard. --Sviptalk 17:32, 7 April 2010 (CEST)
Break
Just an update. Still keeping the bot updated on a daily basis. I am still looking for suggested tasks and/or features. --Sviptalk 16:48, 3 May 2010 (CEST)
