Edit period(s)(e.g. Continuous, daily, one time run): one-time
Already has a bot flag(Y/N): Y
Function Details: Per
request, the bot will replace {{
Film needs cast section}}, {{
Filmimage}}, and {{
Film needs synopsis}} with the corresponding need-X parameters to {{
Film}}. On the pages it edits for this reason, the bot will also bypass redirects to {{
Film}}, remove the obsolete parameters importance, attention, auto, and portal[12345]-name, and check the numbering on any banner shells in case that needs updating.
Discussion
Note that the bot will not go through all 54333 uses of {{Film}} looking for parameters to remove or redirects to bypass; it will only take these actions on pages it is already editing to remove the three named templates. This is a straightforward variation of my TemplateReplacer code. Source is
here.
