Wikipediýa:Bots

en: Requests for the bot flag should be made on this page. This wiki uses the standard bot policy, and allows global bots and automatic approval of certain types of bots. Other bots should apply below, and then request access from a steward if there is no objection.

Please translate

English

Robots, so-called bots, are scripts that are run on Wikipedia to perform routine maintenance. Most robots add or update interwiki links (links to parallel articles in other languages), but they can also do other work like moving or removing categories, checking the validity of external links, and so on.

Guidelines for assignment of bot status

Bot status, which makes a robot invisible in the Recent changes list, may be switched on by stewards after the robot has been approved by the local community.

In order to obtain bot status you should mention the kind of activity you are planning to do on this wiki, an in particular, for interwiki bots mention if you are running the pywikipediabot script and whether you constantly update it with CVS. For other types of bots you must explain what it does, run 20 test edits to illustrate it.

The approval for bot status is obtained after one week if you get at least 75% of approval votes or no reject votes at all: In other cases, an administrator should establish the conclusion of the vote. Once the requirements are fulfilled, you can requests for bot status at the meta site.

Bot policy

Hello. To facilitate steward granting of bot access, I suggest implementing the standard bot policy on this wiki. In particular, this policy allows stewards to automatically flag known interlanguage linking bots (if this page says that is acceptable), which form the vast majority of such requests. The policy also enables global bots on this wiki (if this page says that is acceptable), which are trusted bots that will be given bot access on every wiki that allows global bots.

This policy makes bot access requesting much easier for local users, operators, and stewards. To implement it we only need to create a redirect to this page from Project:Bot policy, and add a line at the top noting that it is used here. Please read the text at m:Bot policy before commenting. If you object, please say so; I hope to implement in one week if there is no objection, since it is particularly written to streamline bot requests on wikis with little or no community interested in bot access requests.
