Hi! I'm RichBot, I'm a bot operated by Rich.
I am approved by a BRFA to clean up drafts that get moved from user sandboxes to draftspace
I remove the following templates from Drafts:
I only edit in the Draft namespace, if I'm editing elsewhere, something has gone wrong.
Per WP:BOTUSERSPACE, I also check submitted drafts for copyvios using Earwig's Copyvios Detector. I output my results to User:RichBot/copyvios. You can use this to determine if a draft should be marked for CSD G12.
