== deOrphaning script ==

Hello everyone! I was just working on responding to a couple bug reports for a script that I worked up as part of a request from this project, and I noticed that only a couple people (who weren't even on this mailing list) are actually using the script. A little history on the script: In March of 2014, {{Noping|Jim Cartar}} came to my user talk page and said he [[User talk:Technical 13/2014/1#Need some help|needed some help]] in acquiring a script for a backlog drive that he was working on that could keep track of and score deOrphanings for a scored backlog drive. I took that request to the project's talk page ([[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Orphanage/Archive_2#BackLog_Drive_.22DO.22_.28De-Orphaning.29_script_proposal|BackLog Drive "DO" (De-Orphaning) script proposal]]) and there was near unanimous support for this. I thought about the proposal and decided the best way to do it was to build a new script (which is still no where near as comprehensive as {{Noping|Manishearth}}'s [[User:Manishearth/OrphanTabs|OrphanTabs]]) and build into it a mechanism that will make BLD scoring easy.

What I'm wondering at this point is, since there appears to be only two people using the script, should I continue to develop this script with a goal of using it for scoring BLDs or just debug the existing script and leave it at that. Thanks for any replies or comments.
