• page moves
• block log
• rights log
• flag)

Operator: Martinp23

Automatic or Manually Assisted: Auto

Programming Language(s): C#

Function Summary: Log management of Wikipedia:DRV

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

Edit rate requested: 5 edits per min

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

Function Details:

1. Creates a daily log page
2. Monthly, creates the monthly archive pages
3. Will parse the monthly log page (in future) to trim its size down from full page transclusions to just links to the daily pages, and results.

Note: The date format for the pages written by the bot is ISO: 2007-03-04 (for example), which trialsanderrors tells me is catching on as a better standard.

Discussion

Approved for trial. Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. Since these are more daily tasks, a week of trials should be good. —METS501 (talk) 00:29, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

OK - thanks. As the bot needs to be autoconfirmed to create pages, I'll only be able to start the trials at some point in the weeekend at the earliest. Martinp23 06:58, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
