Function overview: Replace {{ Empty section}} with {{ No plot}}
Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic
Programming language(s): AutoWikiBrowser
Source code available: AWB
Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2023 March 2#Template:Empty section
Edit period(s): Monthly
Estimated number of pages affected: 500
Namespace(s): Mainspace
Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes
Function details: Using the database dump, find sections titled "Plot" with {{ Empty section}}, and replace the template with {{ No plot}}, along with AWB's general fixes. This will change the categorization to Category:Wikipedia articles without plot summaries, and hopefully will result in another editor adding a plot. Thank you for your consideration.

Approved for trial (edits[100). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. Just to clarify, this is not a replacement of the template because of the TFD, but because it is replacing a less-specific template with a more-specific template. Please correct me if I am wrong.
