Line 25:
*The bot follows the recent changes IRC feed and scans the edit summaries to find edits in which an editor is adding a CSD tag. It finds these by searching for the words "db, "CSD", etc.
*Upon finding such an edit, it checks the page to make sure that a tag was indeed added, and if it was it will add it to a list of articles it is following.
*It will only follow pages in article space, and it will only start following pages where the initial tag was G[1-4, 10-12] or A[1,3,7,9].
*It will follow the articles on this list until such time as the article is deleted or the article has had its tag removed for a reasonable amount of time (currently 10 minutes). It will note actions that remove the tag from the article, and actions that restore the tag to the article, and adds every editor who adds a tag to the page on a list.
**If the page was deleted, every editor who added a tag to the page for criteria that does not match the criteria under which the page was deleted will be added to the bot's list of editors to be warned.
