This is a PWB script which I wrote to automatically create Related Articles subpages for those articles which don't have them, based on Special:WhatLinksHere.
These automatically created pages need checking and editing by a human, and articles for which this has not been done are listed in the Category:Bot-created Related Articles subpages.

This bot automatically creates "Related Articles" subpages for those articles which don't have
them, based on Special:WhatLinksHere.
The following parameters are supported:
-start Start checking articles alphabetically from this point,
instead of starting from the beginning.
-always Don't ask each time before creating a Related Articles
subpage; just create it anyway.
-debug Don't actually create any Relate Articles subpages; just
show what would have been created.
