I added the caretaker so we can add tidying and categorisation rules which will be applied to all articles on a daily basis. This script is declared on startup of Bender and its main function, caretaker() is called at 6am each morning. It loops slowly through all articles over a period of a a couple of hours so there's no noticable reduction of resource during the process.

Currently only one rule has been included for removing redundant elements from properties articles, but others will be added soon. Here's a list of rules to be considered for implemntation:

• http://[www.]organicdesign.co.nz to https://organicdesign.nz
• lib, libs to library, libraries
• Renumber headings so they start at = (done)
• domain-names: articles (done)
• date: articles
• cat articles using embed
• cat articles using apply
• cat articles containing maths (done)
• cat articles using document-code table
• change ampersand articles to "and" (or get & working instead)
• cat peers and change eg. peer/bender cat to just bender
• common typo's, eg implementation to implementation (done)
• move cat links to start and format in a line (done)
• fix sigs?
• XML: remove empty elements (done)
• orphans: remove xml orphans
• change redundant applies to embeds (done)
• remove redundant properties elements (done)
• change <tt>[[... to svens template
