I reported the same number three times. All three were wrong.

说明与用途

在清理385页模板文本时，作者多次报告错误的计数，原因是使用了过时的快照和未定义的两种计数方法。解决方案是编写一个脚本，每次从磁盘读取最新数据并硬编码定义，确保计数准确。

问题

Repeatedly quoting outdated counts of templated pages during cleanup, leading to incorrect reporting.

结果

Accurate counts prevented further misreporting and allowed focus on high‑value tasks.

工作流

• 1. Rewrite pages as needed.
• 2. Run a fresh scan script that reads current disk state.
• 3. Use hard‑coded EXACT and SKELETON definitions to count duplicates.
• 4. Quote the resulting numbers before proceeding.
• 5. Stop when template boilerplate is within acceptable band.

证据

I counted from a snapshot I had already changed.

来源

I used two different definitions without saying which one.

A script with the definitions hard‑coded into it, run fresh every time:

It reads from disk on every run. No cached counts, no remembering what the number was last time.
