editThis bot locates and removes questionable templates like {{N.Z.}}, {{Ait}}, and {{nv}}, {{NZACAcari}}, {{PlantSynz|872}} and {{NZOR}}
It also used to locate and remove non-standard categories with references to geographical regions, like [[Category: some taxon (Australia)]] and [[Category: some taxon (New Zealand)]] or change a file category, like from [[Category:Taxa of G.I. Holwell]] into [[Category:Gregory I. Holwell taxa]].

Old Non-standard taxon formatted articles get sorted within the category in the Category:Non-standard taxon formatting. - February–April: KoehlBot is using AWB to convert hyphens to en-dashes, see Wikispecies:Project Cleanup/Using AWB to convert hyphens to en-dashes.
