This luva program was created on May 26, 2013 at Chennai Event on weekend events of the Wikimedia, by Tamil wiki user Surya prakash and Wikimedia user Yuvraj Pandian.

The purpose of this tool is to automate the updation of the Main Page. For example, the template of a Main Page articles, Did-you-know, featured picture, portal intoduction, user introduction and list introduction, and its contributors are incessantly changing.

In a few cases, the contributor at the right time are unable to make the update. This program was written to do exactly that in this difficult situation. The main page of English Wikipedia is being updated through this method. But since we lack enough contributors other wikipedias such as this one(Tamil Wikipedia) is not being updated everyday.(The "Today" section is part of the daily converted by wiki notation).

The main page of tamil wikipedia is being update in the following days weekly

Articles are update on sundays Did-you-know are update on wednesdays Featured picture are update on wednesdays Portal section are update on once per month Lists section are also being update only once per month.

Hence, instead of the contributors updating manually for the frequency of updation, they could do the updation whey they have the time and this program would update it when it is required based on the frequence set. If the updation isn't availabe or not preset by the contributor for the next occurence, the program would look for the previous ones and update them. Therefore, there need not be a fear of "Red

Line" in the Main Page.

Known Issues As told by Bala,

1. Currently, we have put main page sub-templates as "under-construction". Therefore, when the date arrives they will be ready and will be saved as drafts. For example, If there is a section that was saved draft which is still incomplete and the contributor forgets about it. When the day comes for updation, the program will update the Main page with the incomplete section. We need to avoid this.
2. The template topics are in the name of the month(June vs June. March vs March, etc.). This could be changed to the number corresponding to the month (1-12)

Solution

1. Soution to the first problem is a bit difficult. It is possible only by the contricutors and other occasional contributors/helpers. Until the section is complete an "Under construction" template could be added to that. Upon further discussion with Yuvaraj, we might end-up in a better solution. And the manual will be soon processed as soon as possible.
2. Solution to the second issue is quite simpler. The name of the template that is used in MediaWiki shall be used across all.
