Platform→Platforms parm
Hello, I noticed your AWB edits include deleting a "platform" parameter, which I see is still in the template as "platforms". Apparently you are deleting encyclopedic information? Prhartcom (talk) 13:27, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for spotting it. Its because both Platform and Platforms are allowed in the infobox. I'll fix the AWB code so it checks for both. - X201 (talk) 13:32, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- Well, you should now go back and restore that parameter to those articles which you have deleted this information. Will you do this? Prhartcom (talk) 13:34, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- It will only be articles that use platform, instead of platforms. I'll run a scan if the database and compile a list of articles that use platform and sort any affected. - X201 (talk) 13:43, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Prhartcom: I've checked all the edits of everyone taking part in this cleanup and only one other article was affected. - X201 (talk) 14:51, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- Good news; glad nothing was lost. Cheers; going through what must be 20-30K articles even with AWB must be a job. Prhartcom (talk) 19:20, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
