Category:Pages using infobox film with nonstandard dates
If your bot needs a new challenge, Category:Pages using infobox film with nonstandard dates. Gonnym (talk) 15:28, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Gonnym: Certainly! I think I can put something together that would take a bite out of that. ButlerBlog (talk) 16:17, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
- It didn't take much to put together an initial bot for this. It can format single dates and should be able to clean up around half of the existing maintenance category. My expectation is that while running, I'll monitor for entries that the regex doesn't apply and see if we can address any additional entries.

- Nice! I'll also keep watch and see if I find any strange edits. Gonnym (talk) 19:09, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Gonnym: While we're waiting on bot task approval, I'm wondering if you might refine the maintenance category a little bit. While I was doing a test run on the bot, I notice the category includes some of the following:
- Empty
|released=
|released=
containing only a comment (i.e. <!-- {{Film date|Year|Month|Day|Location}} -->)- at least a couple entries had no
|released=
parameter included in the infobox
- Empty

- Yes, currently the category is also capturing instances where the date is also missing as that should be added. I might move that to a different category if you think that's better. Gonnym (talk) 20:01, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- It might be good to have those excluded just to have a more accurate number. But that's just a personal preference. It won't make a difference for the bot task either way. (In other words, only do it if you think there's a benefit and I'll go along with that.) ButlerBlog (talk) 20:23, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
