Function details: BattyBot 28 fixes wikilinks in citation templates (e.g. change [[Billboard]] to [[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]). I would like to extend this functionality to also fix wikilinks in {{Album ratings}}, such as this edit. As usual, the bot would perform any general fixes with every edit.

Trial complete. It's been more than 10 days, and I have found that there aren't many issues to fix. I've been searching for links to Billboard, Blender, Clash, Filter, Mojo, Paste, Q, and Time, and would be open to other suggestions. Have I adequately demonstrated that this bot works successfully? Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 01:01, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

 Approved. -- Magioladitis (talk) 18:36, 8 February 2015 (UTC)
