Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: automatic

Programming language(s): Python

Source code available: [1]

Function overview: Background: This is one of User:HasteurBot's AfC tasks. HasteurBot was deactivated due to the death of its owner. I now have access to the Toolforge account that it ran on. This will be a direct replacement for HasteurBot 3.

The actual task: Once a day, traverse Category:AfC submissions with missing AfC template and evaluate the membership looking for any AfC template that applies the AfC submissions by date category. If at least 1 template exists, remove the defect tracking category. If the defect tracking category exists on the page but is disabled, remove it.

Well, this is embarrassing. I thought this was an active task, but it looks like it hasn't been run anytime recently, and the script doesn't seem to work. I withdraw my request for approval. Withdrawn by operator. —Mdaniels5757 (talk • contribs) 17:43, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
