Function details: A rewrite of :User:FastilyBot's task numbers 6, 12, 14, and 16; which deal with notifications for dated deletions, FFDs, file PRODs, and article PRODs respectively. The code is entirely adapted and rewritten into Rust, as while Fastily's [https://github.com/fastily/fastilybot/blob/main/fastilybot/bots.py code] is impressive, all the tasks are combined into a number of first-party projects that would be a tad difficult for me to maintain {{small|and I wanted to try to make something in Rust so why not}}. There is a configuration page at User:DatBot/DeletionNotifier which merges User:FastilyBot/Task/6/Ignore and User:FastilyBot/Task/6/Rules for the dated deletion nominations, and I've made a few test edits on the category at Special:PageHistory/User:DatBot/sandbox.

• {{ping|DatGuy}} Hi. I have been on mobile since Fastily retired/the discussion at BOTREQ began, so I couldn't find much details about the original bot. Which languages were originally used? —usernamekiran (talk) 10:35, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
• :I hyperlinked it in the function details: https://github.com/fastily/fastilybot/blob/main/fastilybot/bots.py. It uses Python and [https://github.com/fastily/pwiki pwiki], a library made by Fastily. DatGuy^Talk_Contribs 10:46, 21 November 2024 (UTC)

• :::{{re|Primefac}} 46 edits done, and I'd like to round it up to 50 if you don't mind. [{{fullurl:Special:Contributions|target=DatBot&namespace=3&start=2024-11-22&end=2024-11-25}} Contribs]. Some highlights: {{diff2|1258938836|Four notifications in one edit}}, User talk:Lugnuts was skipped because it has {{tl|nobots}}, User talk:Jokestress was skipped for PROD-ed Rutgers Nisso Group because they were linked to it in a previous {{diff2|1258948782|revision}} they {{diff2|1258978840|removed}} (bot checks for last 24 hours).
