PkbwcgsBot 2
Operator:

Time filed: 18:39, Monday, November 26, 2018 (UTC)

Function overview: Replace a template after merge per TfD.

Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Supervised

Programming language(s): AWB

Source code available: AWB

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): This TfD

Edit period(s): One time run

Estimated number of pages affected: Accurate number of pages affected is 546 pages after bot trial over

Namespace(s): Mainspace

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes

Function details: The bot will replace Template:Infobox Muslim leader with Template:Infobox religious biography per this TfD discussion. I have already merged Template:Infobox Muslim leader with Template:Infobox religious biography previously and it has been tested out. Edits like [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Malik_ibn_Anas&diff=prev&oldid=870735135 this edit] will be made. The bot is currently under approval for the first task at Bots/Requests for approval/PkbwcgsBot. However, this task shouldn't be too much of a hassle. All edits will be previewed when AWB is used. Additional note that WP:GenFixes or typo fixing is not going to be enabled in this task.

 * The bot is not enabled to use AWB. Can you please enable it to use AWB. Thanks. Pkbwcgs (talk) 22:04, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
 * added in manual mode for trial. — xaosflux  Talk 22:53, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
 * It still keeps stopping me from running AWB saying "You have new messages." to my bot account when I don't. Pkbwcgs (talk) 16:18, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
 * easiest fix: log in to the webui as your bot account and go to this page, it should clear the notice. — xaosflux  Talk 16:22, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
 * There were problems with the edit summary at the beginning because it is too many characters for AWB but they have been sorted. Results are here. It went fine and it has also changed Template:Infobox Muslim scholar (which redirects to Template:Infobox Muslim leader) as well. Including redirects, there are 546 transclusions to go. See here. I don't why AWB said 508 at first but there are 546 more to change but all edits went to plan. Pkbwcgs (talk) 16:47, 28 November 2018 (UTC)
