Function overview: This is a pro forma request; the bot has been running for three years at User:JPxG/Oracle, but having these pages in my userspace is geting to be rather inconvenient, and I feel like I should just put them in projectspace. In fact, I had wanted to do this in the first place -- the only reason I used my userspace was because that way I didn't have to file a BRFA. At any rate, it's been running fine for three years.

Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic

Programming language(s): Python, Bash

Source code available: https://github.com/jp-x-g/oraclefordeletion

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): n/a

Edit period(s): Daily or so (the two active pages are once an hour), if the Group wants me to do it more or less frequently that is fine

Estimated number of pages affected: Zero outside of its homezone, Special:PrefixIndex/User:JPxG/Oracle inside its homezone.

Namespace(s): Wikipedia

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): n/a

Function details: From the explanatory page: the Oracle pages contain detailed information on article deletion discussions. The current dashboard is updated regularly, and shows all current deletion discussions (along with their size, !vote count, and article statistics like number of editors and creation date). They are separated by day, and by open/closed status. It goes back 31 days. Monthly archive pages (like 2006-12, 2020-03, etc) are a huge table listing every AfD from the entire month. This table includes (and is sortable by) outcome, "keep" ratio, number of participants, size of the AfD page, et cetera. Yearly archive pages (like 2006, 2020, etc) include the summary table from the top of each monthly archive. They also feature aggregate statistics for the year. The all-time archive page has a number of tables and graphs, analyzing aggregate statistics for every AfD from 2005 onward.
