Function details: Pretty simple; this bot iterates over all subcategories of :Category:Passed DYK nominations, figures out who did the promotion, tallies it all up, and updates WP:DYKPC. It also maintains a couple userspace lists for convenience. theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/her) 05:56, 13 February 2023 (UTC)

  • Does it correctly handle the counts for users who were renamed? – SD0001 (talk) 17:51, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
  • Also, is the page's lede text editable on-wiki? I suggest putting that text into a /header subpage and transcluding, so that changes won't be overwritten by the bot. – SD0001 (talk) 17:53, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
  • :@SD0001: Header has been implemented! Yeah, promotion counts are tallied based off of version history, so it accounts for renames. theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/her) 22:31, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
  • :It also, on a case-by-case basis, accounts for sockpuppetry! theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/her) 22:32, 16 February 2023 (UTC)
  • Just to double-check, this only edits a single page, yes? Primefac (talk) 10:36, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
  • {{yo|Primefac}} only one outside of userspace, yeah :) theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/her) 19:27, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
