Bots (Codename: Raider) assist members and the administrator staff with basic functions throughout the Wiki. Some might be as trivial as HTML translating into Wikicode and some are much more complex.
Bots require special approval to be run on a Wiki as they have control over mass of data. If you with to contribute by writing a bot, you can post it under the review bin so Administrators can take a look at it to make sure it's non-threating.
Project Team[edit]
Policy[edit]
- There must be a need for it. We won't install every bot there even if it is used somewhere else for trivial matters.
- A bot can be removed from service at any time with or without reason.
- One Month Probation Period - Afterwards the bot owner can control it's functions and not Administrators.
- Once a bot is approved, that source code will be locked. If it needs updating and depending on it's update size, it might go back to a 2 week probation period to make sure everything works out ok.
- Bot masters must maintain all bot related pages. If pages become out of date, bots will be disabled until information is current.
- Bot masters will also send a monthly report on the progress on their bots to determine if they are still needed.
- All bots will be under the Category:Bots.
Bots Under Review[edit]
- Archive Bot - This bot will archive talk pages automatically and create the correct headers for each archive page. The code is still under development.
- Master: Shane
- Status: pending.
- Fix/Link/Redirect Bot - This bot will keep an eye out for links that are redirects going to the article namespace. for example, Cally is a redirect. The bot will go through can change of the links that are Cally to [[Cally Henderson Tyrol|Cally]]. We will ignore links that goto pages with redirects to the Battlestar Wiki namespace. The code is still under development.
- Master: Shane
- Status: pending.
Bots Under Probationary Status[edit]
- None
Bote Under Active Status[edit]
- Task Bot - A bot that will create and mantain an "OPEN TASK" list in Battlestar Wiki:Tasks of everything that is marked with a certain templates and in a certain catagories so they are not forgoting. All "Tasks" are to be put into a template called {{allopentasks}}. Would have to be edited to work with this Wiki.
- Master: Shane
- Status: active.
- Runs: Every 6 Hours
