Applies the following corrections to pages in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting. This is often enough to get them removed from the category.

  • <ref …></ref> → <ref …/>
  • <references …></references> → <references …/>
  • Remove <ref …/> without name
  • Strip parameters other than name and group from <ref> and <references>
  • Rename refs with numeric names
  • Copy content for orphaned named refs from past page revisions
