CitationCleanerBot 6

Operator: Headbomb (talk · contribs · SUL · edit count · logs · page moves · block log · rights log · ANI search)

Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: automatic

Programming language(s): AWB

Source code available: The general logic is

When you find 10.(free registrant) [list at Module:Citation/CS1/Configuration, search for "B U I L D _ K N O W N _ F R E E _ D O I _ R E G I S T R A N T S _ T A B L E"]
add |doi-access=free to {{doi}}

The bot will, in automated mode, skip pages with {{free access}}/{{open access}}, and be restricted to Main/Draft spaces. In supervised/manual mode, I'll make sure we don't end up with a double marker, like doi:10.1186/1471-2148-11-118 , and could edit in other spaces, like project pages, but not talk pages or user comments.

Function overview: To mark known free identifiers as free, e.g. [1]

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate):

Edit period(s): Daily-ish.

Estimated number of pages affected: ~2000

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes

Already has a bot flag (Yes/No): Yes

Function details: For now I'll focus on DOIs, since these are tracked by Category:Unflagged free DOI. If other identifiers can be tackled, I'll make another BRFA, or re-open this one.
