Featured Article Link Rot Bot (FA RotBot) is a bot that helps with WP:Link Rot in Featured Articles and Lists. FA RotBot creates a list of articles from Category:Featured articles and Category:Featured lists. It then sends this list to User:InternetArchiveBot (IABot) for processing. FA RotBot does not make edits itself, it merely triggers IABot to run on a page. FA RotBot runs automatically on a regular time schedule (weekly).
The bot originated following a discussion between Dweller and the Featured Article coordinators. As background, IABot normally works its way through all of Wikipedia's 5 million+ articles which can take months to complete. This is a long time, so FA RotBot bot sends requests to IABot to process Featured material more frequently, meaning IABot can get round our highest quality material faster and on a regular basis.
If you would like to raise a technical issue with FA RotBot itself, please contact User:GreenC, who is the bot owner/developer. If you'd like to question the premise of the bot, or how it works in Featured material, please contact User:Dank. If you've spotted a problem in the way that IABot is handling the dead links it finds, please report the problem by following the instructions here. If you found IABot added a link that is incorrect, please login to the IABot Interface (press "OK" if prompted) and reset the link to the correct information.
