Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes

Function details: There are still quite a few articles that contain old interwikilinks. I would like to clean them up. The bot basically goes through all pages and then removes the interwiki links if the article is linked in the corresponding Wikidata object and there are no conflicts with the interwiki links.

- I apologise but I should have asked this the first time - how are you finding these and could you give a slightly more accurate indication of how many edits are being planned? Primefac (talk) 19:05, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
