What (summary)
The format of the AboutUsBot generated pages was changed last September to provide proper attribution of content. We need an automatic way of re-creating those old pages to better attribute where the content comes from. Possibly on pageview (like the discussion and review bot).
Why this is important
People don't like us to take more than a paragraph from their website, and they feel a lot better if the content that is used has been carefully attributed.
DoneDone
A user goes to a page that has existed in the system for a long time. The user sees that the content is attributed correctly if the only edit was by the AboutUsBot.
