Discussions[edit]
- Beer Parlour discussion establishing consensus.
- Grease Pit discussion looking for someone else with a bot.
- Vote to let me create my own bot (passed).
Implementation[edit]
My Python script on GitHub removes plain links (e.g. [[Category:English 2-syllable words]]), removes template links (e.g. {{cat|en|English 2-syllable words}} or {{cln|en|2-syllable words}}), and adds |nocount=1 to {{IPA|en}} templates when appropriate.

Move Category:Exonyms to Category:Exonyms by language[edit]
Description[edit]
- Move Category:Exonyms to Category:Exonyms by language.
- Update the category's name in all of its members.
- Move all subcategories from their topic names to catlangname names. For example, move Category:en:Exonyms to Category:English exonyms.
- Update the categories' names in all of their members.
Status[edit]
Never done. I explained why in the RFM discussion.
Discussions[edit]
- RFM discussion explaining why the categories should be moved, establishing consensus, and explaining why moving the categories would be more complicated than I first realized.
Implementation[edit]
Python scripts on GitHub.
2023[edit]
Recategorize grandchildren of Category:Languages by country[edit]
cat:Languages by country contains subcategories for each continent (e.g. cat:Languages of the Americas), each of which contains subcategories for each country in that continent (e.g. cat:Languages of Canada). cat:Languages by country should instead contain the country categories directly. So its grandchildren should be made its children. (This should result in the deletion of the continent subcategories, since they will be empty.)
