To use Bandersnatch, click on the link in the toolbar. You can get the list of articles from clicking on the task number in the list, and then "List for bots!". Replace the code with the code provided, if avaliable. If not, You can try AWB or WPCLEANER. The ticks indicate whether the tool can handle it: green means yes, yellow means it can sometimes handle it, sometimes it just warns; and orange ticks mean the tool only warns.
