Function overview: Replace {{Expand section}} with {{More plot}} (or {{No plot}})
Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic
Programming language(s): AutoWikiBrowser
Source code available: AWB
Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): Template:More plot
Edit period(s): Monthly
Estimated number of pages affected: Over 1,000
Namespace(s): Mainspace
Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes
Function details: Similar to BattyBot 72, using the database dump, find sections titled "Plot" with {{Expand section}}, and replace the template with {{More plot}} (or {{No plot}} if the section is empty), along with AWB's general fixes. This will change the categorization to Category:Wikipedia articles with plot summary needing attention (or Category:Wikipedia articles without plot summaries if the section is empty), and hopefully will result in another editor adding/expanding the plot and removing the template. Thank you for your consideration. GoingBatty (talk) 13:56, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
