Currently the features below are ready for testing (beta), all unamed stuff is alpha

    • All effort will be going to WP:AfD, so that I can make this as best as humanly possible.
  • Gather the number of for, oppose, comments and other page specific votes. (done, but buggy becuase it does not recognize "novel" ways of saying votes)
