Automatic or Manual: Automatic
Programming language(s): PHP (Peachy)
Source code available: Haven't written it yet, will be (from my Toolserver SVN).
Code used for trial
Function overview: Reconstruct Village Pump archives into searchable format.
Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#Pre_2007 (note that I have change my idea of the correct numbering system since)
Edit period(s): One time run
Estimated number of pages affected: 30 page creations
Exclusion compliant (Y/N): Yes
Already has a bot flag (Y/N): Y
Function details: There was a period when the Village Pumps were archived solely as page histories (if that sounds confusing, see here). This makes them unsearchable and generally posterity unfriendly. I intend to rebuild them into standard format archives /Archive A, /Archive B, etc to complement the existing /Archive 1, /Archive 2, etc. The page creation edit summary will link back to the original page history for authors (though there are also in-text signatures).
Seems like a great task for a bot. How's the code coming along? Once you're ready I'd like to do a trial on one of the pumps (e.g. News), before approval for the rest. However, I also wanted to clarify a few things:
