Forum:Bots

As the number of pages on this wiki grows, editing hundreds of articles is going to become extremely tedious. It's everything from fixing misspellings, changing categories to replacing names. Doing retcons and making large scale changes will be faster if we had bots to do it for us.

In order to actually start using a bot, we have to take certain steps:

1. Wikia must know that the community agrees on it so please post as much feedback as possible. 2. The actual bot is an account owned by another user on this wiki. For example, if Suppy owned the bot, he would name it something like "Suppy Bot". Whoever owns the bot will be the one responsible for maintaining it. 3. We then have to contact wikia to get the account to be flagged as a bot. From there, it can be programmed to do whatever task we need it to do.
