Time filed: 17:16, Monday May 27, 2013 (UTC)

Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic

Programming language(s): Python

Source code available: Will be when done

Function overview: Archive Featured Portal Candidate requests and tag approved portals.

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): User talk:VoxelBot#Featured_Portal_Candidates_archiving_.3F

Edit period(s): Once or twice daily.

Estimated number of pages affected: Maximum 10 pages/day or so. Usually only 4-5.

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): No

Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): Yes

Function details: Every day, check the list of promoted Featured Portals for the month, much like Task 3 but for portals. If the portal is promoted and doesn't already have a star and talk page history, add it then archive the request. Same for if it's declined, but don't add the star and update the portal history. Not Exclusion compliant because there is no need. It would mess up the bot's processes.

Sorry, I've been busy with loads of other stuff.. I completely forgot about this and am working on another project right now. I have more time now (breaks! yay!) so expect it to get done soon. Can't give you a date though. Vacation9 18:57, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
