Trial complete. I also set it to remove {{hidden category}} if it exists on the page in this case, to stop duplicate templates. The Helpful One 16:39, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A couple had {{category redirect}} [2][3]. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 16:43, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Approved for extended trial (30 edits). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 17:03, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Trial complete. I will probably need more edits for this trial, as there was an issue here due to AWB's separate sections running on the page, and thus I need to check that it works before bot-mode is activated. The Helpful One 17:34, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, do some more until you are confident everything's resolved. — HELLKNOWZ ▎TALK 17:40, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, okay so looked at some more test examples (until it was skipping pages as relevant) total edits are ~120, everything seems to be fine now. The Helpful One 17:46, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Approved. MBisanz ^talk 18:16, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
