Have you ever searched for anniversaries to put on the main page of Wikipedia? Or do you know users who deal with this?
I had a dream to find possible anniversaries with bot and this weekend I did it. The bot goes through articles and collects data in connection with the given date. In huwiki editors began to use it in the first minutes. :-)
It is hard to write it generally in a form suitable for all Wikipedias, so I choosed to make localization easy with code and description. Bot v0.8: https://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szerkeszt%C5%91:BinBot/anniversary.py Documentation: https://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szerkeszt%C5%91:BinBot/anniversary.py/doc Sample product: https://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szerkeszt%C5%91:BinBot/%C3%89vfordul%C3%B3pr%C...
It is not ready as the date must still be set in code (main()), but it works and I am working on it further.
