Time filed: 10:25, Saturday, April 25, 2020 ( UTC)
Function overview: Do edit for fixing CW Error #551 (Empty line).
Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic
Programming language(s): Java ( WPCleaner)
Source code available: On GitHub (especially algorithm 551)
Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate):
Edit period(s): Twice a month
Estimated number of pages affected: A dry run on the 2592 pages in Wikipedia:CHECKWIKI/WPC 551 dump results in the modification of 280 pages.
Namespace(s): Main
Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes
Function details: The bot will remove useless lines in the form ''<nowiki/>''
or similar because such lines are useless and are probably a bug due to the Visual Editor (VE) or the Translation tool (CX). It will help fixing some issues not fixed with the
split links and the
links without text.
I already run a similar task on frwiki with 92 edits.
This seems to be an entirely cosmetic and potentially unnecessary edit. Why is this sort of "error" worth a bot? (I'm genuinely curious) Primefac ( talk) 19:06, 11 May 2020 (UTC) reply
