Xenobot 3

Operator: –xenocidic (talk)

Automatic or Manually Assisted: Automatic (supervised)

Programming Language(s): AWB

Function Summary: Work with categories listed for maintenance

Edit period(s) (e.g. Continuous, daily, one time run): Occasionally

Already has a bot flag (Y/N): Y

Function Details: The bot would be tasked to work with categories (i.e. rename, remove, convert template to cat, etc.) listed for maintenance at various pages such as Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Working & /User, Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Speedy, Wikipedia:Templates for deletion/Holding cell and Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion. Work would only commence once clear consensus on a particular action is reached. I've done some manual work helping to empty a user category here.

Approved for trial. Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. One category. BJ^Talk 23:57, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done. I actually did two categories, but the first was really just a wee one that looked like it should probably get done per the concerns raised at the CFD. The second was depopulating Category:User talk archives. Here are the edits. No issues were encountered. –xeno (talk) 02:28, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
