Automatic or Manual: Automatic, every edit will be checked afterword until I feel 99.99% safe with the code.
Programming language(s): DotNetWikiBot Framework, C#
Source code available: Not yet. DNWB includes functions that are very straightforward for this kind of tasks. That will make the code extremly simple.
Function overview: Remove dead iw-links to Swedish Wikipedia (maybe a few other projects later).
Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate):
Edit period(s): ~Once a day
Estimated number of pages affected: The log/delete on svwp today counts ~50 pages/day. Most of them will not contain iw-links.
Exclusion compliant (Y/N): N
Already has a bot flag (Y/N): N
Function details: An adminbot on svwp will collect the content of deleted pages on Swedish Wikipedia. In those pages, I will search for iw-links, and look inside the corresponding pages on other projects, that those pages does not have a dead iw-link to the deleted page. Pywikipedia-bots seems just discovering these broken links by accident. This will, I hope, identify them faster. The adminbot is now requesting adminflag on svwp. -- Lavallen ( talk) 13:59, 10 July 2011 (UTC) reply

The edits look pretty good (technically you shouldn't be running it yet, but no worries). I just have one other question. Have you got any controls on how quickly the bot removes the links after deletion? I'm thinking in terms of not wanting to remove too quickly, in case the page was just deleted temporarily (e.g. as part of a history merge) - Kingpin 13 ( talk) 21:47, 22 July 2011 (UTC) reply
