This page is intended as a specification of the features of AAlertBot. It is not complete yet.

Workflows

Page retrieval

Pages from workflows are retrieved in either of two ways – from a category or from template usage. Category is simply retrieving all relevant-namespace pages in that category (e.g. Category:All articles proposed for deletion). Template is similar, except template aliases, i.e. redirects, are also retrieved and then each alias' transclusions are added (e.g. {{rfc}}).

Workflows covered

– implemented (may not be fully formatted/data populated)
– not for now (not in priority list)
– implementing (taking a while or need to do something else to get this working)
– under consideration (haven't examined the issues/process to say if currently plausible/worthwhile)
