User:Stabbot

Stabbot is a bot that I, Stabber, run from time to time to make a batch of trivial edits to a number of pages.


 * The bot is throttled so that all HTTP queries to the server are at least 10 seconds apart.
 * All actions require my active confirmation
 * In fact, the bot will never edit more than 20 pages at a time
 * I monitor the changes very closely as it runs

These scripts are written using the Python Wikipedia Robot Framework. I usually stay synced with their CVS.
