My thoughts on CCI and a bot to do a lot of mundane tasks. Comments to the talk page please
Some changes to the way CCIs are run / formatted would help a bot and hopefully users as well.
Keep the main CCI page mainly as as, with two differences:
For investigation pages, I suggest three sections:
Articles would be moved from open / suspect when a {{ y}} or {{ n}} tag was added.
Housekeeping
Checks - when creating new pages the bot would do some checks itself:
When the bot was finished I'd forsee a sample article line looking like (this is purely an example of what a new diff line may look like - I've not atually tested these diffs yet so ignore what I say the diffs are here):
Where struck through links the bot has found OK and underlined it's found a possible problem with a link to the webpage next to it. Would prefer to use different colours but CSS has never been my strong point so not currently sure how to.
There may well have to be a few changes to templates etc to get this all up and running.
For Image investigations it would only do the housekeeping bits.
