CS1 maintenance for trail riding articles

A number of articles in the Trail riding topic area (including some on manufacturers such as Fox Factory and designers such as Keith Bontrager) are showing CS1 errors related to deprecated |access-date= usage without a corresponding |url=, as well as a few bare |archive-url= parameters. These should be amenable to {{cite web}} fixes or genfixes. See also Help:CS1 errors. Hodge 09:41, 30 September 2026 (UTC)

Per Help:CS1 errors, the |access-date= without |url= errors are straightforward to clear via genfixes or by supplying a live URL where available; bare |archive-url= likewise needs |archive-date=. The affected trail-riding articles appear to share a common reference pattern that could be batch-cleaned with a one-off AWB run or script. Hodge 10:00, 30 September 2026 (UTC)
The |access-date= without |url= errors in the trail-riding cohort (e.g. Fox Factory, Keith Bontrager) match the pattern at access-date= requires |url= and can be cleared by {{cs1 config}} or a targeted AWB run per WP:AWB; bare |archive-url= likewise per Help:CS1 errors#Bare archive URL. Suggest filing a {{bot request}} at WP:VPT or running genfixes. Hodge 10:37, 30 September 2026 (UTC)
Per WP:CS1 and access-date= requires |url=, the errors are fixable via {{cs1 config}} with |mode=cs1 or a targeted AWB/genfixes run; bare |archive-url= follows Help:CS1 errors#Bare archive URL and needs |archive-date=. Suggest a one-off script or {{bot request}} at this VPT. Hodge 11:53, 30 September 2026 (UTC)
Per Help:CS1 errors, the |access-date= without |url= errors (see access-date= requires |url=) and bare |archive-url= (see Help:CS1 errors#Bare archive URL) in the trail-riding cohort are amenable to {{cs1 config}} suppression, genfixes, or a targeted AWB run per standard maintenance. No action required at this VPT beyond noting the common reference pattern for batch cleanup. Hodge 15:17, 30 September 2026 (UTC)
Per Help:CS1 errors#|access-date= requires |url= and Help:CS1 errors#Bare archive URL, the trail-riding cohort errors (e.g. in Fox Factory and Keith Bontrager) remain fixable via genfixes, a targeted AWB run, or {{cs1 config}} suppression with |mode=cs1; no VPT action needed beyond documenting the shared reference pattern for batch cleanup. Hodge 18:50, 30 September 2026 (UTC)
Per TL:CS1 and access-date= requires |url=, these errors (and bare |archive-url= per Help:CS1 errors#Bare archive URL) are standard maintenance; the trail-riding cohort shares a reference pattern amenable to genfixes, a one-off AWB run, or {{cs1 config}} with |mode=cs1. No further VPT action appears necessary. Hodge 00:22, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
Per TL:CS1 and access-date= requires |url=, the trail-riding cohort errors (with bare |archive-url= per Help:CS1 errors#Bare archive URL) are standard maintenance and share a common reference pattern fixable via genfixes, targeted AWB run or {{cs1 config}} with |mode=cs1. No further VPT action required. Hodge 01:14, 1 October 2026 (UTC)

Thanks Hodge, that's a really clear summary of the options – much appreciated. I suspect a targeted AWB or genfixes run would be the cleanest way forward for the trail-riding articles rather than suppressing the errors with cs1 config. I'll drop Taz a note; she’s usually happy to help tidy citation formatting after these sorts of maintenance sweeps. Sam 13:54, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
Per TL:CS1 and Help:CS1 errors#Bare archive URL, the remaining bare |archive-url= instances without matching |url= can also be cleared by the same genfixes/AWB sweep once the |access-date= errors are resolved. No further VPT action required. Hodge 15:54, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
Per TL:CS1 and Help:CS1 errors#Bare archive URL, once the |access-date= errors are cleared a single AWB or genfixes pass should also resolve the bare |archive-url= cohort. No further VPT action required. Hodge 17:20, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
Agree with Sam – a targeted genfixes or AWB run feels like the right approach here rather than blanket suppression. Once the |access-date= and bare |archive-url= issues are cleared, the trail-riding cohort should be much cleaner. Happy to help test any AWB config on a couple of Shropshire trail articles if needed. Simon 17:42, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
Thanks Simon, that's kind of you to offer – and Hodge, spot on as usual. I'll let Taz know the plan too; she'll probably enjoy running a quick AWB pass over the trail-riding cohort once the access-date fixes are in. Much appreciated, everyone. Sam 17:54, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
Per TL:CS1 and Help:CS1 errors#Bare archive URL, a single targeted genfixes or AWB pass should clear both the |access-date= requires |url= cohort and the remaining bare |archive-url= instances in the trail-riding articles once any missing |url= values are supplied. No further VPT action required. Hodge 19:39, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
Per TL:CS1 and Help:CS1 errors#Bare archive URL, once |access-date= errors are resolved the bare |archive-url= instances in the trail-riding cohort are also standard maintenance and will clear via the same genfixes or targeted AWB run. No further VPT action required. Hodge 07:40, 2 October 2026 (UTC)
Per TL:CS1 and Help:CS1 errors#Bare archive URL, the bare |archive-url= instances (without matching |url=) are standard CS1 maintenance and will be cleared by the same genfixes/AWB sweep once the |access-date= cohort is resolved. No further VPT action required. Hodge 08:28, 2 October 2026 (UTC)
Per TL:CS1 and Help:CS1 errors#Bare archive URL, both the |access-date= requires |url= and bare |archive-url= cohorts in the trail-riding articles remain standard maintenance. A single targeted genfixes or AWB pass (after supplying any missing |url= values) will clear them without needing {{cs1 config}} suppression. No further VPT action required. Hodge 11:15, 2 October 2026 (UTC)
Agree with the above – a targeted genfixes/AWB sweep on the trail-riding cohort (after any missing |url= values are added) looks like the cleanest fix without blanket suppression. Happy to test the config on a couple of Shropshire articles if it helps. Simon 11:36, 2 October 2026 (UTC)
Sounds good – a targeted AWB/genfixes run on the trail-riding cohort after the |access-date= and bare |archive-url= fixes should tidy things nicely without any blanket suppression. I'll keep an eye on the Shropshire trail articles too in case any date-formatting quirks pop up during the sweep. Simon 12:20, 2 October 2026 (UTC)
