Checking the nominations subsection[edit]

What to do
[edit]

  1. Check that the subtitle of every nomination has correct vote count
  2. Check that there are no anon votes (move them to comments and sign that you removed it)
  3. Remove articles which "stay until" yesterday or earlier, archive at /Removed and remove {{AIDnom}} from article's talk page.


Or you can use the bot (this bot is still under development, so don't hesitate to try it and report any errors to me)


If you checked the nominations subsection and fixed what was needed to be fixed, sign on the top of the list to the right and delete the bottom entry (keep the list 10 entries long). Sign even if you found nothing to do, just so we know somebody checked. It'd be nice if we had a pace of one check every 12 hours. If somebody checked in last 6 hours, don't bother checking.
