This bot standardises Danger Reports. I've run for three major edit-streaks. The first time it went through everything and fixed it all, a few errors here and there which I didn't notice with my manual checking but nothing major. The second time it was solely to fix categories for Office Building and NT's by removing the word 'The' in the Building Danger Levels sort key. The third time it rolled out a new standard and also created a handful of mobile phone mast pages that needed creating. It managed to make a half-major screw up on some of the existing mast reports but these have since been fixed. I estimate that roughly 1500 of my edits are due to this thing, that certainly wasn't my intention. | Original Run: This bot standardises Danger Reports. I've run for three major edit-streaks.

I'm burying this bot under a foot of soil. Let's hope it never need be run again. | I'm burying this bot under a foot of soil. Let's hope it never need be run again. | ||
Run Two: After some months, many more reports have been made. A new template for ambiguous buildings has been made and needs to be used. The bot needs to re-run in order to make sure everything is standard and ready so that coding of the BIC Updater Bot can progress. | |||

There are | There are lots of subpages to the Danger Reports, this means that often they can go out of date without people ever noticing. Information is no real use if it's more than a month old, and is still questionable at less than a week or two since the last update. I'm attempting to create a bot that will update anything over a month old with an unknown status. There are over 1000 pages to check, and they will be re-standardized before any editing runs are made. Hopefully this bot can tackle most of them. | ||
