Discussion

 * This looks like a rather broad task with a very large number of edits per day. Could you break out more in detail what kinds of edits your bot would be doing and how it would select pages for editing?  MBisanz  talk 05:53, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
 * The description needs to be a lot more detailed as well.
 * What type of cleanup tags will it add and what criteria will it use?
 * What does "wikifying algos" mean?
 * By "un-wikifying the links to disambigation pages" do you mean you'll simply be de-linking them? This shouldn't be done; the link should be re targeted to the correct page.
 * Why is this just a one-time run?
