Programming language(s): PHP
Source code available: User:Full-date unlinking bot/code
Function overview: Removes links from dates.
Edit period(s): Continuous
Estimated number of pages affected:
Space | Fully linked date triples |
Dates with punctuation errors |
---|---|---|
Category | 142 | 4 |
Portal | 7,486 | 1,604 |
Total | 7,628 | 1,608 |
Exclusion compliant (Y/N): Yes
Already has a bot flag (Y/N): Yes
Function details:' On Wikipedia:Full-date unlinking bot, a consensus was achieved that full dates (a month, a day, and a year) should not be linked to in articles unless they are germane to the articles themselves (for example, in articles on dates themselves). Now that the work – representing the first phase of automated delinking – is complete, I request bot approval to remove links of full dates, as defined previously in Wikipedia:Bots/Requests_for_approval/Full-date_unlinking_bot in category and portal space. The details of operation and exceptions are available on User:Full-date unlinking bot.

New articles are created each month by editors who may be unaware of our linking protocols and policies. I would propose a monthly bot run, or to program the bot to patrol recent changes, particularly to delink dates of these recently created articles, and any other articles which may have been linked by editors unaware of our practices

I ask for a stay on this because as of now, I have a script that relies on linked dates in the MFD archives. It's not a big deal and I'll strike this statement as soon as I fix it. @ harej 03:19, 23 January 2010 (UTC) reply

replyTo be totally honest I'm not interested in this. If someone else is interested in making the necessary code adjustments and then running the bot, let me know and I can hand over the password. harej 03:37, 5 March 2010 (UTC) reply
Withdrawn by operator. I have a feeling no one is going to take over this task. If you would like to run the bot, please contact harej. —
