Programming language(s): Javascript/Node.js
Source code available: User:Ahechtbot/wikiprojects.js
Function overview: Update Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/WikiProject templates.json

Function details: My User:Ahecht/Scripts/draft-sorter script had been generating the wikiproject list in the userspace of the person running it, causing a delay when loading the script. I set up Ahechtbot to periodically run the list-updating portion of the script in its own userspace ( User:Ahechtbot/WikiProject templates.json) so the script can fetch it from there without the delay, but I would instead like the bot to update the page at Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/WikiProject templates.json to allow other scripts, such as MediaWiki:AFC-add-project-tags.js, to benefit from having an automatically updated data source.
