/******
To use, add the following line to [[special:mypage/monobook.js]] (or [[special:mypage/vector.js]] depending on skin pref)
 importScript('User:Bawolff/DYKVerified.js');

This script looks for the code <span id='DYKUpdateVerified'/> and replaces it with an update button. IF you also want it in the sidebar under the toolbox, add the following line (in addition to the importScript):
 addOnloadHook(function () {addPortletLink('p-tb', 'javascript:DYKUpdateVerified();void%200', 'Update DYKVerified');});

This script scans through [[T:TDYK]], finds are entries that are current candidates that have been either verified or verified AGF (identifying them by the 16px check mark image), and pastes them on to another page (currently [[user:Bawolff/DYKVerified.js]])

As with all my scripts, feel free to send my comments, suggestions, hate mail, etc. Since this is the topic of an active thread at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Did_you_know#A_more_comprehensive_proposal , comments should go there. Otherwise you can also find me on irc (nick bawolff on #wikinews on irc.freenode.net) or leave a message on my talk page (I check [[wikinews:user talk:Bawolff]] more often then i check my local wikipedia talk page, but i check both quite regurally).
