Notes:	This can be improved. RF 20150722 Ignore significant deletions of material too. Note 1: doesn't check namespace, relatively few !auto edits occur outside mainspace. But maybe we should. RF 0725 Note 2: this version is deliberately broad, for the majority of infoboxes, we can be far more restrictive about the layout. That will however increase the number of false negatives in non-infobox contexts. Limit to mainspace. Start tagging - should be useful for finding and reverting subtle vandalism. -G 2019-03-02 Make more accurate using get_matches. -G 2019-03-03 Add death dates RF 20210101 Exclude edits that don't change any numbers, per [[Special:PermaLink/1181118945#Filter 712]]. --Suffusion of Yellow 23:51 20 Oct 2023
