User:IByte/Bot

I run a little bot to help me with my edits. Any comments should be placed on my talk page.

User interface helper under development

I am currently developing a tool to help me with my manual edits (especially RC/New Pages patrol), i.e. I visit a page and tell it manually what to do with it. Planned features are: adding (categorised) stub tags, if this works I'll probably add VfD nomination (I think the current process is a bit tedious to do manually), of course with user-supplied reasoning texts. I would like to emphasise the fact that this tool is not planned to have any spidering or other autonomous/high-volume features and will not create any new pages (other than VfD discussions once this feature is added). It is therefore believed that the tool does not have the problems as listed under WP:Inherent bot drawbacks. This is therefore not a request for a bot flag (as I think it shouldn't have one; they're still low-volume user-initiated edits), but a general check for concern. Similarly, like Humanbot, I doubt the desirability of a separate user account. The bot will be tested on the Sandbox during development (providing manual reverts if the bot malfunctions). It is being developed using PHP/cURL. Your thoughts? --IByte 22:49, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

Currently implemented features

  • Fetching/saving a Wikipedia page
  • Add/replace stub tag
  • Nominate a page for Votes for Deletion (should be changed to WP:AFD)

Previously ran on my laptop, still needs to be converted for my Apache server with an older PHP version.
