AutoWikiBrowser

Sorry, unregistered users cannot be granted permissions due to technical restrictions. Please create an account in order to request user account permissions.
Shortcuts
Please review the AWB guide before making a request. Users are rarely approved unless they have either 250 non-automated mainspace edits or 500 total mainspace edits. You can check your non-automated contributions on XTools. Administrators are automatically approved and do not need to request access. For bots, you must first have a bot approval request approved, or in trial; link to your BRFA in the request.
This page is for requesting AWB Access for English Wikipedia only. Other projects have their own check pages and you should ask administrators there to add you.
If approved, your name will be added to the CheckPage. If you will make many or fast automated edits using AWB, you may wish to use a separate (or bot) account for that purpose; first create the account, give it a userpage declaring it to be your alternate account, then make the request using your main account.


User:Un assiolo

Would be useful to make tedious edits. Un assiolo (talk) 22:31, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Pppery: A user was approved with this exact request, so I thought it was sufficient. I literally copied and pasted it. But OK. I saw AWB has an option to merge duplicated references, which is what motivated the request. This is something I've done in the past and it's annoying to do manually. I expect to learn about the other features as I use it. --Un assiolo (talk) 16:13, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The distinction between that request and this one is that they have 20 times as many edits (and correspondingly more experience like having written several FAs, not just raw edit count) as you so I applied less scrutiny to their requests than I do to a user with less experience. The point of providing a specific task is to ensure both that you know what AWB is, you aren't hat collecting, and you aren't planning to do something like make mass cosmetic edits in violation of rule 4, etc. That response convinces me on all three fronts, so  Done * Pppery * it has begun... 20:03, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Requesting so I can help streamline small edits like typos, general maintenance, and so on. NyanThousand (talk) 12:56, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User:Itineris55

It is very useful for searching/modifying same string/link/name on many articles when required. I am using it already for ro.wiki. --itineris55 08:01, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Done I would have preferred a more specific description of what you were going to do with AWB, but I'm just going to assume your experience from rowiki will carry over and ou'll do something reasonable. But do keep in mind WP:AWBRULES, which might not be the same from wiki to wiki. * Pppery * it has begun... 20:03, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
