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%C3%B3ba/%274,_%279/01-14

It is not ready as the date must still be set in code (main()), but it works and I am working on it further.
