Criteria for delinking

In line with the consensus reached in this RfC, and to keep potential controversies to a minimum, this bot uses conservative criteria for delinking, allowing for many exceptions to exist where necessary.

As approved by the RFC, the bot will unlink only day-month-year (triple) combinations such as:

  • ], ] → January 15, 2005
  • ] ] → 27 May 2007
  • ] → 1989-11-05

Additionally, the bot will unlink month-day items that are clearly adjacent to and in combination with a triple—i.e., in date ranges and slashed dates. Examples are:

  • ] – ], ] → October 17 – November 8, 1987
  • ]/] ] → 23/24 April 1966

Notes:

  • The bot will only operate on each page once.
  • The bot will solve simple grammatical errors that the autoformatter will no longer be able to correct (due to de-linking).

Exceptions

  1. Anything outside article space.
  2. Links of solitary years (]) and solitary month-days (], ]), and links such as 1983 in film will not be unlinked by the bot.
  3. Intrinsically chronological articles (such as 1789, January, and 1940s) will not be treated by the bot.
  4. Each article will be edited only once by the bot while performing this task. If an edit is reverted the article will not be re-treated by the bot.
  5. The bot will follow normal bot exclusion rules, using the {{bots}} and {{nobots}} templates.
  6. Anything on List of years
  7. The pages that {{Lists of years}} links to.
