Continuously, the bot will go around and get all transclusions of the following templates:

  1. {{wikify}}
  2. {{orphan}}
  3. {{uncategorized}}
  4. {{uncategorizedstub}}
  5. {{cleanup}}
  6. {{unreferenced}}
  7. {{expand}}
  8. {{merge}}
  9. {{fact}}
  10. {{NPOV}}
  11. {{copy}}

For each template, it will check if there is a {{{date}}} parameter. If there is not, the bot will add the data parameter with the current month and year. For example: {{orphan}} would become {{orphan|date=March 2024}}.
