+EarwigBot Plugins
+=================
+
 Additional IRC commands and bot tasks for
 [EarwigBot](https://github.com/earwig/earwigbot). They are included separately
 due to being outside of most peoples' use cases, or because they require
-additional setup aside from the main bot.
+additional setup aside from the main bot. To install, place the command or task
+file in its respective subdirectory in the bot's working directory (the same
+one that contains its config file).
+
+IRC Commands
+------------
+
+- **AFC-related commands** (*afc_pending*, *afc_report*, *afc_status*,
+  *afc_submissions*): implements various services for
+  [Articles for creation](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:AFC). It has no
+  dependencies, but `afc_report` requires the `afc_statistics` task plugin for
+  parsing submissions. `afc_submissions` accepts a config option,
+  `"ignoreList"`, a list of page titles to skip; it will try to use
+  `afc_statistics`'s ignore list if none is defined.
+
+- **geolocate**: implements an IP geolocator using
+  [ipinfodb](http://ipinfodb.com/). Requires an API key stored in its config as
+  `"apiKey"`, which should be stored encrypted if that option is enabled.
+
+- **git**: allows the bot to carry out basic git maintenance functions, like
+  pulling and checking out branches on repositories. A list of repo paths
+  should be stored in its config as `"repos"`. Has one dependency,
+  [GitPython](http://packages.python.org/GitPython), which can be installed
+  with `pip install GitPython`.
+
+- **praise**: adds a simple way for the bot respond to ad-hoc commands based on
+  entries in `praise`'s config (in the `"praises"` dictionary). Its original
+  intention was to implement silly "easter eggs" praising certain users; for
+  example, `"!earwig"` would make the bot say "Earwig is the bestest Python
+  programmer ever!". This would be implemented by having an entry in
+  `"praises"` with the key `"earwig"` and the value
+  `"Earwig is the bestest Python programmer ever!"`.
+
+Bot Tasks
+---------
+
+- **afc_catdelink**: delinks mainspace categories (or templates, if necessary)
+  in declined [AFC](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:AFC) submissions.
+
+- **afc_copyvios**: checks newly-edited AFC submissions for copyright
+  violations using the bot's built-in copyvio checking support. Takes multiple
+  config values, including connection info for a MySQL database to store
+  processed pages and a cache (disabled by default; usable by the
+  [toolserver interface](https://toolserver.org/~earwig/copyvios)). A script to
+  create the database is in `tasks/schema/afc_copyvios.sql`.
+
+- **afc_dailycats**: creates daily, monthly, and yearly categories for AFC.
+
+- **afc_history**: generates charts about AFC submissions over time, including
+  number of pending submissions throughout the project's history as well as
+  counts for individual reviewers. Takes multiple config values, including
+  MySQL database info. A script to create the database is in
+  `tasks/schema/afc_history.sql`.
+
+- **afc_statistics**: generates statistics for AFC on the current number of
+  pending submissions and recently declined or accepted ones. Takes multiple
+  config values, including MySQL database info. A script to create the database
+  is in `tasks/schema/afc_statistics.sql`.
+
+- **afc_undated**: periodically clears
+  [Category:Undated AfC submissions](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Undated_AfC_submissions).
+
+- **blp_tag**: adds `|blp=yes to` `{{WPB}}` or `{{WPBS}}` when it is used along
+  with ``{{WP Biography}}``.
+
+- **drn_clerkbot**: clerks the
+  [dispute resolution noticeboard](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:DRN),
+  updating case statuses, building a chart, and notifying users.
+
+- **image_display_resize**: resizes upscaled portraits in infoboxes.
