If data gets out of sync or we update things incorrectly, the checkers can help identify those errors before people get snippy. Keep in mind, the checkers have to check a lot of data, so they can be slow. To help with this, the checks are automated to run once a week for each check. When you visit the page, you’ll see a list of what needs fixing. Once you’re done, you can press the re-run button to recheck.
