bad idea: a bot to alert you when monitored wikipedia pages change for "is" to "was"
@foone i actually did think of this as a discord bot command a while back, except as an explicit checking thing instead of a daemon model

i wonder if wikipedia has a proper api or if this would require html scraping
@alterae @foone there's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Syndication to give you a RSS feed for changes (which is presumably a lot more polite than polling the main page and looking for changes)
