this edit, I stopped the bot and fixed it, but didn't catch that it was adding an extra pipe in several edits such as
this edit until the first 22 edits were done. I combined the duplicate templates and removed any extra pipe in each page the bot edited, and asked the user who was adding the duplicate template to stop doing so.GoingBatty a couple of questions:
|living=yes
parameter. Then I do the same steps for the deaths categories and add |living=no
.|living=
parameter exists, or add |living=yes
or |living=no
if the parameter doesn't exist.|living=
for edge cases as needed.
