User:ReletBot
From Geohashing
Revision as of 15:35, 8 April 2009 by imported>Relet (→Planned functions)
This is an instance of a python-wikimedia-bot. It will be used by relet to automate some things such as page creation, categorization, replacements and what not.
If you think that it misbehaves:
- write a message on its talk page. That should pause the bot (to be verified).
- alert User:relet, who will almost certainly hang out on irc://foonetic.net/#geohashing while the bot is running
- don't refrain yourself from banning the bot if you are sysop enough.
Its edits are hidden from the Recent Changes, as it is flagged as a bot. Click on "Show Bots" in the Recent Changes to display its activity.
Currently supported functions
- Create missing graticule pages based on the information found on All Graticules.
- Insert neighbor graticules into the map template on existing pages based on the information found on All Graticules.
- For an example, see any graticule page using Template:Graticule.
- Bot has just finished it's first run. If you find any errors in your home graticule page or elsewhere, drop me a note. That does not apply to lazy Canberrans who don't add their neigbour graticules to the All Graticules page.
- Generate names for unnamed graticules based on the GeoNames population data.
Planned functions
- Visit geohashes that relet is unable to attend.
