Function details: Continuing my work to keep various CS1 error categories clean, this bot task would fix articles and drafts in Category:CS1 errors: DOI by removing https://doi.org/
or other domain name from the |doi=
parameter of a citation template (e.g. this edit). The bot will also run general fixes at the same time. GoingBatty (talk) 03:50, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- SD0001, I'm not seeing any errors, but on the other hand we're averaging two edits a day. I know I am a bit more conservative than most when it comes to "do we really need a bot for this" so I'll mull this over while I await your thoughts on the matter.

- Approved. I'm not convinced this is necessary, but I guess every little bit helps. Primefac (talk) 13:27, 22 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
