Closing procedure

Bot

JJMC89 bot III (contribs · logs · docs) processes the requests on this page. It currently checks for new work at 17 and 47 minutes past the hour.

Process

Process
The working page must have full (`sysop`) edit protection. The bot can only recategorize when a page is categorized using category syntax (`]`). The bot iterates over each section of the page using the section header to determine the mode. Within a section the bot iterates over each line if wikitext. Each line consists of three parts: prefix, wikilinks/templates, and suffix. Everything else is ignored. All wikilinks on the line They must be to a CfD page or a category. The bot will not process the rest of the section if any other wikilink is found. If a CfD link does not contain a section, the bot will attempt figure it out based on the linked CfD page. Configured templates can be used to link categories. All other templates are ignored. The prefix is the plain text at the beginning of the line. The prefix on a line with a CfD link applies to all lines until the next CfD link. If the prefix contains "NO BOT" (case sensitive), the bot will not queue it. (These should be placed on WP:CFD/W/M instead.) The suffix is the plain text at the end of the line. The suffix on a line with a CfD link applies to all lines until the next CfD link unless that line has a suffix. If a CfD link was found and there is at least one category link is on the line, the bot will queue the request. After queueing the entire page, the bot will remove any conflicting requests and requests involving disambiguation categories from the queue and then check and process the remaining requests.
