Programming language(s): Python
Source code available: [1]
Function overview: Background: This is one of User:HasteurBot's AfC tasks. HasteurBot was deactivated due to the death of its owner. I now have access to the Toolforge account that it ran on. This will be a direct replacement for HasteurBot 2, as modified by HasteurBot 9
The actual task: Traverse Category:AfC_submissions_by_date and its dated subcategories (starting with October 2008) to
- Identify AfC submissions (using the page prefix Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/) that have not been edited in more than 180 days
- Perform a null edit on the page so that templates and categories may be re-evaluated and populate the Category:G13 eligible AfC submissions category if appropriate
- Give notice to the page author that the page is eligible for deletion and could be deleted in the near future
- Also notify opted-in users who've touched an affected page as well. (This is from the speedily approved HasteurBot 9)
