It looks like we won't have a ton of edits, so this is a small trial, but ideally we can test as much as possible. —&#8239; The Earwig (talk) 06:20, 17 November 2023 (UTC)


 * We didn't get a ton of edits during the 14 day window. We could go longer if necessary.  Here are the current edits:   I'll keep watching the maintenance category and run it accordingly.   Butler Blog   (talk) 14:43, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Special:Diff/1191901347 and Special:Diff/1191901323 do not make the proposed edits - can pages like this be skipped in the future? Primefac (talk) 08:41, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes - I believe I had left the AWB genfixes turned on, otherwise, it would (should) skip. So I'll make sure skip if only genfixes is enabled.  (I'll also review as to why it missed the edits it should have picked up)   Butler Blog   (talk) 20:47, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
