Could someone run AWB to remove the name "Bureau, US Census" from "cite web" references? I see it as "last1=Bureau" and "first1=US Census", or maybe "last=Bureau" and "first=US Census". Kk.urban ( talk) 01:20, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

fields need normalization, but that is a very big job for census.gov probably 100s of thousands of pages. They should probably be set to
United States Census Bureau. It might need to be done incidentally, with other work, to avoid lighting up watchlists too fast eg. every small town in America. --

Per Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine#druginfo.nlm.nih.gov is dead (and antecedent discussions linked therein), 'druginfo.nlm.nih.gov' is permanently dead, but is listed in (quick guestimate) several hundred External Links sections. The task is to remove those entries altogether from pages where the infobox already has a link to the replacement site. JWB is flaky for me and I can't use AWB, hence this request. The specific edit is to delete lines of this form:
* {{cite web | url = https://druginfo.nlm.nih.gov/drugportal/name/cocaine | publisher = U.S. National Library of Medicine | work = Drug Information Portal | title = Cocaine }}
where the underlined strings could vary, in pages that contain the regexp:
/\|\s*PubChem\s*=\s*\d/
that is, a |PubChem=
template field that has a numerical value.

Please could somebody tag and list Category:Events at the European Track Championships and its 25 subcats for speedy renaming to "UEC European Track Championships" under C2D? – Fayenatic London 11:57, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
I have created two articles recently of sportswriters widely cited on Wikipedia: Cliff Christl and Bud Lea. I was wondering if someone could query any instance of:
| last = Christl | first = Cliff
within any {{
Cite}} template (such as {{
Cite web}} or {{
Cite news}}) and then add in | author-link = Cliff Christl
to the template| last = Lea | first = Bud
within any {{
Cite}} template (such as {{
Cite web}} or {{
Cite news}}) and then add in | author-link = Bud Lea
to the templateThere is also one other I run into a lot:
| last = Daley | first = Art
within any {{
Cite}} template (such as {{
Cite web}} or {{
Cite news}}) and then add in | author-link = Art Daley
to the templateThank you for any assistance. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 16:04, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
Could someone with AWB skills move the checkmarks and x's from the end of the lines to the beginning of the lines, after the bullet points? It's quicker to check that way (like at Wikipedia:WikiProject Dictionary of National Biography/Naval biographies). Could you do it at the other 62 epitome pages in the category as well?

I'm requesting someone with AWB experience to run the editor on the entirety of Category:WikiProject Weather articles. There are countless (thousands?) of references that use {{cite report}} with the |agency= parameter, which breaks the citation. |agency= needs to changed to |author=. wxtrackercody ( talk · contributions) 03:20, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
I disagree with Jason Rees ( talk · contribs). I think this is a great usage of AWB, as it will correct the thousands of references in one quick action. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk) 21:19, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
I endorse the request here, though I would clarify the scope of what's requested. Specifically, there is widespread use of {{
cite report}} misusing the |agency= parameter specifically for references linking to the
Storm Events Database hosted by the
National Centers for Environmental Information. In some cases, NCEI is erroneously listed as the agency. In other cases, a weather forecast office of the
National Weather Service is erroneously listed as the agency. In either case, the agency parameter should be removed for all {{
cite report}} in the aforementioned project category that point to
https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/stormevents/ and its subpages (as linked previously). If the |agency= was listed as a forecast office (something of the form National Weather Service Office in Memphis, Tennessee
, though National Weather Service*
may be a reasonable catch-all), then it should be listed as the |author=. If necessary, |publisher=National Centers for Environmental Information should be amended/appended to the citation template.

I have recently created stub articles for both Champion Data and AFL Tables, which are major statistical players in the Australian Football League and have been referenced consistently across Wikipedia.
I am now please seeking an automation to add wikilinks to all instances of each phrase on Wikipedia.
I understand the second request is quite arduous! I hope there is not much human intervention required here; it shouldn't be the case as they are mostly part of citations / references. Please let me know if there is anything else required on my end. Thank you! Gibbsy spin 13:37, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
