` Thanks for you thorough evaluation. Comments or responses as below: # The first rule is indeed to remove useless piped links from dates to sections within year articles. # Agreed and now amended. # I seem to remember that putting a space immediately after the opening / (slash symbol) created a code error for me. But I've now replaced it and I'll see how it goes. # ``rem empty parameters``: will change description accordingly # Yes, we generally downcase prepositions of five letters or fewer, per MOS:CT. # Agreed and now amended. # ``remove scroll bar for reflists`` rule. Agreed and now amended. I've been wondering why the code doesn't catch all instances of scroll bars, just like it doesn't always find  or  and replace with {{reflist|30em}} # ``replace various single quotes and prime symbol with straight apostrophe``: I actually quite like them too, as they are unambiguous, but MOS:QUOTE prefers straight quote marks, so it's what I do # Your ``replace various single quotes`` rule is duplicated. [Holding response - couldn't find it on first look] # removing all spaces in front of every . I've found no disadvantages, and in fact it adheres the citation more closely to the phrase to which it relates (or to another citation). # rule to remove duplicate spaces:  now amended # No space in 1% per WP:PERCENT # replace ``1$`` with ``1 $``? We put currency symbols immediately before the numeral. On the other hand, we seem to allow ``200 HKD`` as well as the ``HK$200`` # ``wiktionary`` rule. It's just simpler to remove them outright. They are usually put in to supply glosses that I find unnecessary most of the time.  # ``copyright`` rule. There are only a handful of articles dealing with copyrights, but lots of straight copying of the publisher with symbol into citations, making the false positive rate acceptable. # YEs, \dx\d rule (without spaces) produces never-ending of false positives, particularly in sport (athletics) articles, and often disturbs links. # Your two ``turn letter 'x' into symbol`` rules. I encounter too many errors that I will drop that line. # The ``Celsius`` and some other rules can be merged. Agreed and now amended. BTW, isn't /(\d)(?:\s| )?(?=\[\[Celsius\|[°º]C\]\])/gi the same as /(\d)(?:\s| |)(?=\[\[Celsius\|[°º]C\]\])/gi?  # ``remove leading zeros from convert template`` rule. Agreed yours is better. Now amended. # ``rem bolding from linked AND bolded terms``: The rule has been disabled because it's impossible to do a hard-and-fast determination of which should be removed. Thanks again for your help and advice.  `
