    Automatic or Manually Assisted: Semi-automatic

    Programming Language(s): AWB

    Function Overview: Per request in my talk page and discussion I had with User:Carlaude, I'll try to reorganise Christian saints and martyrs to their correct categories following instructions in User:Carlaude/Notes. The task it's easy just adds and removes categories using AWB's standard functions.

    Edit period(s): One-time run

    Already has a bot flag (Y/N):Y

    Function Details: I'll do each part of the request separately. One run for each category.

    Discussion

    [edit]

    This appears good, but... are you sure this is non-controversial? Is this the sort of change you should discuss at Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity first? – Quadell (talk) 17:44, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

    I checked myself a pack of them and they look ok. For the rest I assume good faith. I gave a heads up to the project above. -- Magioladitis (talk) 18:03, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    All of the edits are putting pages in a more specific catagory-- century instead of just time period-- or Protestant martyrs instead of just martyrs etc. The source for the information is other catagories thay are already in.
    This is very simlar to the approved request here. --Carlaude (talk) 18:19, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    The date information were gained from a bot searching the article pages for catagories on years, death dates, and people by century. The sorting by century-- instead of by period-- gives the page a more consistant catagorization (few errors) and lets the large catagories be not so large and more useful to creating information for the main pages. For example, nearly all 4th-century martyrs are from the Diocletian persecution.
    Separating out out the martyrs into Protestant martyrs & Roman Catholic martyrs (begining in the 16th century) is important since they where then often martyrs at the hands of each other.
    These catagories are also the only form complete catagorization for the Christian saints and the martyrs. --Carlaude (talk) 04:21, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

    Approved for trial (5 edits from List A, 5 from C2, 5 from C3, and 5 from C4). Please provide a link to the relevant contributions and/or diffs when the trial is complete. Let's just make sure it works. – Quadell (talk) 20:32, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

    Trial complete. No problems. In fact instead of just adding categories into 5 of list C2 and removing category from 5 of list C4 I moved the category in 10 by working in the intersection to save edits. Check Special:Contributions/Yobot. (10 of C2-C4, 5 from of C3, of of A). -- Magioladitis (talk) 22:07, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

     Approved. Looks great. – Quadell (talk) 22:58, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
