This will reduce some of the work, but you will still have to check the links by hand. It is probably impossible for programs to check for duplicates, so this cannot be a bot. The most this can be is a program that only writes part of the wikicode.

The benefit of having a program write part of the wikicode for your is pretty clear though. You don't have to focus on copying links or titles into the correct syntax. And you may not have to focus on getting the date.
