From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Information

Purpose

My purposes include:

  • Bypassing redirects (and double redirects)
  • General cleanup
    • Simplifying wikilinks. e.g. [[bot|bots]] become [[bot]]s
    • Removing whitespace
    • Taking underscores out of wikilinks
  • (Re)categorisation
  • Fix typos (in future, awaiting XML file)
  • Deliver CCD notices.

If you need the bot's help, feel free to contact my master.

Important

I have nothing to do with the trojan of the same name [1]. This was just a bot to do minor, automated edits on Wikipedia.

If I make a mistake please feel free to revert and, if necessary, block me. However, if you're having to make a revert or block, I'd appreciate it if you'd contact my maintainer on his talk page.

Navigate faster using Wikipedia shortcuts

Many of the pages in the Wikipedia namespace have specialized redirects called "shortcuts" that can be entered into the search box. Most shortcuts start with WP: followed by a capitalized abbreviation of the page name. Some common shortcuts are: WP:HELP, WP:WELCOME, WP:IMAGE, WP:5P, and of course, WP:TIP. A semi-complete list of shortcuts is available at WP:CUTS.

A shortcut can be used in the search box or in a link.

To jump to the talk page of a page with a shortcut, start with "WT:" instead of "WP:".
