Description
After that, the work of https://github.com/kynikos/wiki-monkey can be tested and made working.
1. The least possible effect - it would greatly ease maintenance of pages for maintainers themselves.
2. The lazy & medium effect - we can ask users in the guidelines to install and use the bot. Or even lazier - install it to all users, since
* it is well-tested code;
* it is GPLv3.0 licensed code;
* it is a code from the proven and trusted person knowlageable in the IT spheres and in depth with MediaWiki;
* script does changes only if user himself wants it, because script works only when the user decides to run it, otherwise you provided users another bunch of good program functionality as a free software, in a code you ship them;
* since operating script is easy - pressing `*` button is enough of skills needed;
* contributors would currate bot-made changes themselves, because they would review own changes;
* seems even Stallman would be proud to have this script make his functionality of the Wiki editing UI richer, code cleaner and work easier.
And users would do semi-automatic, and curated by users themselves, massive scale clean-up of pages all over the HaskellWiki.
3. The maximum effect - effects of 1&2 + collaborative contributing to `wiki-monkey`.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked wiki-monkey project and the three proposed adoption effects in this issue. Determine which outcome is in scope, how the scripts would be distributed or enabled, and what maintainer and user review would be required before considering the work complete.
