:{{Re|Xaosflux}} {{BotTrialComplete}} [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions/CitationCleanerBot&limit=50&offset=201808010220 Full trial]. They are so interlinked I couldn't separate them into neat batches, so I did 50 edits, and they show all types. I ran the trial semi-automatically, but saved things as if it were automatic. Two problem edits happened

:*[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Hpaine/sandbox&diff=prev&oldid=852892569], which required a follow up [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User:Hpaine/sandbox&diff=next&oldid=852892569], due to the interactions of genfixes with the bot.
