Function details: Using PAWS and pywikibot, update Wikipedia:Database reports/Polluted categories (3). The update code doesn't work perfectly yet, so some of the category names are broken, but overall it would be a net benefit. I've tested it on the test wiki, and the current output is visible at Special:Permalink/893288113.

• @DannyS712:, what length or type of trial would you prefer for this task? I would normally default to either 25 or 50 edits, but given that it is one edit per run I thought I'd ask your input on what you think would be a good trial for this task. --TheSandDoctor ^Talk 23:26, 26 April 2019 (UTC)

  @TheSandDoctor: Maybe something like 5 edits? The code is by no means perfect, but it only edits 1 page and usually only when I want the page to be updated so I can use it again. I have a number of such pending database reports that I'd like to run, so maybe something like 3 edits each or even speedy approval? One page per task, code already tested. Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 00:07, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

• Speedily Approved. this is only for one page, that was created just for this purpose, and is low volume. — xaosflux ^Talk 00:27, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
