Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic
Programming language(s): Python
Source code available: Pywikipedia with custom code not yet publicly available
Function overview: Removing interlanguage links to from pages if the link is already on Wikidata
Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate):
Edit period(s): Continuous
Estimated number of pages affected:
Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes, plus skips if {{ noexternallanglinks}} is used
Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): Yes
Function details: The bot will remove interlanguage links which are present on Wikidata (it will also attempt to add to Wikidata first, but this is not directly related as such approval is for Wikidata, not here, but just mentioned to show that it could catch some that may have already been left behind by, for example, Addbot). I've so far made two tests: one with a slight error in the link in the edit summary and on with that slight error fixed. Hazard-SJ ✈ 08:10, 14 April 2013 (UTC) reply
Where will the bot source a list of pages to check from? ·Add§hore· Talk To Me! 12:07, 14 April 2013 (UTC) reply
