Operator: Kaldari (talk)

Automatic or Manually Assisted: Automatic

Programming Language(s): PHP using SxWiki Lite

Function Summary: WikiProject maintenance tasks

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

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

Function Details: Fix the 495 articles in Category:Biography articles needing priority parameter replacement by replacing the deprecated "importance" parameter with a "priority" parameter. Here is the exact replacement for scrutiny: preg_replace('/{{WPBiography(.*)importance=(.*)([\|}])/i', '{{WPBiography$1priority=$2$3', $oldpage).

Here is an example run of the bot limited to 1 article.

Future task requests will mainly involve parameter edits and fixes in WikiProject talk page templates.
