Agreed bot tasks
Uncontroversial or agreed-upon tasks should be listed here:
- correcting capitalization of headers, e.g. See Also to See also.
- add "|{{PAGENAME}}" to category tags, for pages not in the main or category namespaces.
- fix double-redirects
Suggested bot tasks
- place these templates on every topic page, if not there already:
- {{Browsetopic}}
- {{Createnewpage}}
- {{Putinthiscategory}}
- Look for text strings in articles which are the same as existing article names. The first occurrence of this string in each article should generally be wikilinked.
- common spelling errors
- Adapt a bot from Wikipedia?
- Be sensitive to variations in spelling - some people don't like it if their spellings are "corrected" from American to British forms, or vice-versa.
- Tagging pages with apparent non-compliant capitalization
- Maintain a list (possibly a category) of checked non-compliers.
- Move the following categories, changing tags in all articles in the category. (Note to bot owner(s): Perhaps it's easier to let the list build up, or else just do it at regular intervals):
- Category:Countries to Category:Locations (Latin America is not a country).
